Chapter 68 Shirt

Maxwell's breath quickened and his lips parted as he felt a shiver of pleasure. His gaze was fixed on Melissa, who stood shyly at the door wearing his shirt. Her long, milky legs were on display, and the two buttons of the shirt were undone, revealing her round breasts that would fit perfectly in his hand. Her long hair was let down, and she looked incredibly hot, causing Maxwell to swallow hard. As Melissa walked towards him, her hips swayed in a way that made her look even sexier. Maxwell wanted to make a sweet love to her until she lost her mind, but when he noticed her growing belly, he suppressed his desires.

Maxwell got lost in watching Mellisa, which he did not even realise when she walked past him and sat on the bed.

"I'm really hungry right now," Mellisa said, snapping Maxwell out of his dreamland. He walked over to the bed and sat next to Mellisa. His eyes fell on her flawless lap, and he couldn't help but admire it. However, he held back from planting a kiss on it. Mellisa started dishing food in her plate and for Maxwell as well.

"Let's dig in," Mellisa said, and started eating her food. She was so famished that she didn't even check if Maxwell was eating or not but she felt his gaze on her, she knew that he was checking her out but decided to keep quiet . Maxwell couldn't take it anymore. He wanted to see Mellisa wearing his shirt, but not to torture himself like this. He brought out his phone and dialed one of the maid's numbers. Mellisa grabbed the phone away from his ears and threw it behind her on the bed, a smirk playing on her lips.

"Let's eat dear husband," Mellisa said with a mischievous smirk. "The food is so delicious and mouth watering, try it."

Maxwell's lips parted in sheer amazement when he realized that Mellisa was trying to seduce him. He couldn't believe his luck! He gulped down his saliva when his eyes traveled to the two buttons of her shirt undone, his eyes traveled down to her revealed thigh. His face flushed with excitement as his heart started pounding so hard in his chest. "Mellisa," He said, his voice husky with anticipation. "Are you doing this on purpose?"

Mellisa smirked, she moved her face closer to Maxwell until their faces were an inch apart. "What if I'm trying to?" Mellisa asked, her breath rasping with excitement. Only God knows where she got the courage, but her heart was beating so fast, and she controlled it. "What will you do, dear husband?"

In a swift motion, Mellisa found herself pinned on the bed with Maxwell hovering on top of her. Her heart was pounding so hard, but she kept a straight face. Maxwell's eyes were looking deep into hers that she felt all the emotions behind them. "Then," Maxwell said, his voice husky with desire. "I will make hard, slow, and sweet love to you that you will never forget me in the seven lives that we have."

Mellisa's face turned red with embarrassment, but she managed to conceal it. Her heart was beating so fast that she couldn't even describe it. "Then," Mellisa said softly, looking straight into Maxwell's eyes. "What are you waiting for? I would love to keep you in my memories forever in these seven lives that we have, dear husband."

Maxwell couldn't resist any longer. He pressed his lips against Mellisa's and kissed her passionately.

Their breathing became heavy and erratic as they pulled away from the kiss,"I will fulfil my promise when you are not in this condition." Maxwell said as he rose from the bed to the floor. "I don't want to hurt you, you are pregnant and I'm afraid that I might hurt you. Have your breakfast, I will bring your clothes." Maxwell said and left the room,as much as he wanted her he controlled himself because of her condition fearing that he might cause complications to her pregancy as the doctor said.

...…

Michelle and Shina were waiting for Melissa to come downstairs, but she didn't show up. So, they decided to go out and spend some time waiting for her.

"I'm feeling quite anxious about what might happen. I'm sure Zick is planning something, and now that Tina is in the hospital, God knows what her plans are," Shina said as they walked side by side, heading to the Cafe shop.

Michelle let out a dejected sigh. "I'm just as worried as you are," she said. "I'm sure something must have happened that caused Tina to take such a drastic step."

"What else?" Shina scoffed. "Her plans must have backfired, and she has to change them quickly. We should do everything in our power to stop Zick and Tina's obsession, or else the lives of the people we love will be ruined."

Michelle opened the door of the Cafe, and the two of them entered inside. Closing the door behind them, they sat at the table that was on the corner of the Cafe.

"Absolutely right," Michelle nodded in agreement as she sat across from Shina. "It's imperative that we uncover Tina and Zick's plans before Tina's unfortunate accident. They had a well-crafted strategy to use against Mellisa and Maxwell, but Tina's fear of being ousted from the house by Maxwell led her to feign memory loss. Who knows, she may even accuse Maxwell of fathering her child."

Shina's eyes widened in shock, her hand covering her mouth. "Could it be that Zick is the father of Tina's child? Was their plan to ensnare Maxwell with the baby and send Mellisa back to Zick?"

Michelle let out a disgusted scoff. "I'm not surprised. Zick and Tina are beyond redemption. We must devise a solid plan to put an end to their schemes once and for all. Fortunately, I have a plan to do just that.

Shina arched her eyebrows, giving Michelle a curious look. "What's your plan?"

Michelle grinned, ready to speak. "I was just about to say--" but was cut off by Pathy Perry's voice.

"Hey guys." Pathy beamed as she pulled up a chair and sat beside Shina. She had been leaving the cafe when she spotted Michelle and Shina. "I hope you don't mind if I join you."

"Of course not," Michelle replied with a smile. "How are you doing? And how are the wedding preparations coming along?"

"Really well, actually. By the way, I received my dress and it's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." Pathy gushed. "To show my appreciation for Mellisa's hard work, I want to invite you all to my wedding.

Shina's eyes lit up with joy at the mention of the wedding. "Oh, how wonderful! It's been far too long since I've had the pleasure of attending a wedding," she exclaimed.

Michelle chimed in with a smile, "Thank you so much for inviting us. We wouldn't miss it for the world."

Pathy nodded in agreement, "It's settled then. Please do let Mellisa know. I had hoped to invite her personally, but work has been keeping me quite busy." She reached into her bag and pulled out a beautifully designed wedding card, handing it to Shina. "Here's my invitation. I do hope you'll be able to make it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I really must be going."

"Thank you again for inviting us," Michelle added.

"It's truly no trouble at all," Pathy assured them as she rose from her seat. "Goodbye for now. I'll see you both at the wedding."

Shina waved goodbye, her heart filled with excitement for the upcoming celebration.

"I think it's a great idea to discuss my plan at home," Michelle said with a smile. "After all, walls have ears."

Shina's face lit up in agreement. "Absolutely, we should definitely talk about it at home. And hey, why don't we grab some coffee while we're at it?"

Michelle declined the offer. "Thanks, but I'm not really in the mood for coffee right now."

Shina's expression turned playful. "Ah, I see. You'd rather have coffee with Mark, wouldn't you?" she teased.

Michelle blushed. "What are you talking about, Shina? You're getting too mischievous these days. Are you seeing someone?"

Shina scoffed. "Love, dating, marriage...those words aren't in my vocabulary," she replied.

Michelle smirked. "Well, we'll just have to wait and see. When you meet that special someone, those words will suddenly become very important to you."

Shina shook her head. "I highly doubt that. Falling in love is just not for me."

Michelle simply smiled and said, "We'll see about that."

After Shina ordered her coffee, the two friends headed back home, chatting about various topics along the way.

...

Pathy's long-awaited wedding day had finally arrived and Mellisa was thrilled to attend. As she prepared for the event, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of worry about what to wear. She didn't have any suitable attire for such a special occasion. Despite her concerns, Mellisa remained positive and looked forward to celebrating the joyous occasion with Pathy and her loved ones.

Melissa emerged from her bathroom, draped in a towel, and was delighted to see a stack of papers on her bed, with Maxwell seated beside it.

"Hello, my beautiful wife," Maxwell beamed as Melissa approached. "I have a lovely surprise for you."

Melissa smiled and sat on Maxwell's lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Good morning, dear husband," she said, planting a kiss on Maxwell's cheek.

Maxwell pulled Melissa closer, feeling her belly press against him. "My sweet baby doll," Maxwell whispered.

"Yes?"

"When did you become so bold and unashamed?"

"The day I realized that you belong to me and me alone," Melissa replied, resting her head on Maxwell's chest. "So, I can act however I please with the person I love, can't I?"

Maxwell's heart pounded, and his eyes lit up with happiness. "Mellisa," He raised his head and looked into her eyes. "Are you saying that you love me?"

"What do you think?"

"Melissa, please tell me properly."

Melissa's face lit up with joy as she exclaimed, "Maxwell, I love you!"

Maxwell embraced her tightly, overjoyed that Melissa had finally confessed her love for him. He had been eagerly anticipating this moment and his heart was now overflowing with happiness. He was more determined than ever to protect their love from any harm, whether it be from Zick or Tina. In fact, he had already made all the necessary arrangements to send Tina out of the continent as soon as she was discharged from the hospital. The doctor had informed him that her condition was severe, worsened by her pregnancy and kidney failure status. He wanted to ensure that she received the best possible care, far away from him and his family, before she could cause any trouble.
