Sending him to work

Liam was lost in thought when his cell phone started to ring bringing him back to reality. He took out his phone from his pocket as he walked back to his room and saw it was an unknown number.

"Hello?" Liam said as he lay down on the bed tiredly.

"Hey, it's me." Emily's playful voice came from the other end of the phone.

Liam heard the familiar voice and he was puzzled, why his phone showed an unknown number, wasn't her number saved on his phone? Liam looked at his phone again and saw it was indeed an unknown number. His face got hard as he asked, "Where did you get this number from?"

"I arranged it, don't worry it's not in my name," Emily said with a smile.

She knew these days it's not easy to get a sim card without authentic information. But to communicate with Liam easily she brought the new phone and sim with someone else's identity.

"What do you need?" Liam relaxed and asked in an indifferent tone.

"Can't I call you if I don't need anything?" Emily felt hurt by the question.

"No, it's not like that. I'm just a little tired today." Liam said tiredly as he started to rub his temple. He just attended Ava and Oliver's wedding and reception. He was already in a bad mood and really felt exhausted.

"Tired? When are you not tired? You are always tired when I call you. I don't see you getting tired when you talk to Ava." Emily said angrily, her tone was full of jealousy.

"Emi, Stop making trouble. Will you?" Liam said in a cold tone that was full of warning.

Emily heard Liam call her "Emi", she immediately calmed down. She smiled softly and said, "You haven't called me Emi in a long time."

Liam smiled and continue to rub his temple, he knew how to calm her down so he intentionally called her Emi.

"Emi, you know we are in a critical situation right now. As soon as we take down Oliver, I will take you away from here." Liam's tone was so sincere that anybody would believe what he says was true.

Emily suddenly became very serious and said sincerely, "Well, for our plan, I will try my best. Liam, sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you I just wanted to say good night."

Liam narrowed his eyes and smiled lightly, "Good night, Emi."

Monday morning, Oliver's Villa.

It was a rare winter morning when the sun was very warm. The sunlight entered through the thick curtain gap in Oliver and Ava's bedroom, giving the good weather feeling. Ava opened her eyes slowly and looked at the man beside her who was sleeping so innocently holding her in his arm. She couldn't help but smile. Ava tried to move his arm so she could get up but the moment she tried to push his hand, Oliver's hold on her got tighter subconsciously. Seeing that Ava started to giggle.

Ava's laughter woke Oliver up, he opened his bleary eyes and pulled her closer to him. He started to rub his head to her affectionately as he looked at her with tender eyes.

"Good morning!" Ava said with a smile.

"Good morning, my beautiful wife." Oliver greeted Ava and suddenly clasps her head and sealed her lips domineeringly.

Ava was almost out of breath by the kiss, she pushed him and asked for mercy. But Oliver looked at her with hungry eyes. He ran his finger on her pink cheeks and red lips as if he wanted to bite them.

Ava looked at him and narrowed her eyes, she knew what he was thinking. She was so scared, she quickly jumped up and said, "Get up, it's time for you to go to work."

"And what will you do?" Oliver also sat up and asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I'll stay home and work on my beauty," Ava said showing her teeth.

"You are already beautiful." Oliver pulled her and held her from behind as he breathed the fragrance of her body.

"I know how beautiful I am. Now get up and go to work." Ava said pushing him. If he stayed home all day he will keep her in bed and she definitely didn't want that.

"Honey, you want me to go to work on the third day of our marriage?" Oliver stared at her speechless.

"Well, what will you do at home? We are not going on our honeymoon, and since I am pregnant, I sleep most of the day so you will get bored at home." Ava said innocently.

Oliver still hesitated, after all, they were newlyweds but then he thought what Ava said made sense. He actually has nothing to do at home, besides if he stayed home he would want to do stuff with her and that will only tire her like the past two days. So he better go to work. As soon as Oliver decided that, he jumped out of bed and walk into the bathroom.

Although the morning was beautiful and Ava could stay in the bed for a bit longer but she didn't. She got up and followed Oliver into the bathroom.

Oliver was brushing his teeth. Ava walked in and took her toothbrush and they both kept brushing their teeth in front of the mirror. Ava cleaned her mouth and washed her face, as soon as she was done Oliver suddenly leaned forward and rubbed the bubble of his mouth on her freshly washed face.

When Ava realized what he had done she looked at him and shouted out, "Oliver Knight!"

"It's Oliver. I don't like it when you call me by my full name." Oliver said with a smile as he looked at her eyes full of love and affection.

Ava looked at his eyes and lost herself in them, she completely forgot what she was about to say to him. She just whispered, "Oliver."

"It sounds so lovely from your mouth," Oliver whispered back with a smile.

Ava's anger completely disappeared as she saw the smile on his face, she just turned and washed her face again.
