Chapter 581Chapter 581 I Did Not Control Myself for a Moment
Before Ray could respond. Flora quickly spoke, “No need for that, Marcie. It’s freezing to sleep on the
floor in this cold winter!”
Marcie didn’t think so, saying. “What’s there to be afraid of? He’s a strong young man, not easily
affected by a little cold. Besides, we have heating in the room. There’s nothing to worry about!”
“I’ll have someone bring in two blankets and lay on the carpet. That should be sufficient.”
After saying that, she immediately instructed the maid to carry out her orders.
Within a short while, the area by Flora’s bed was prepared with two thick blankets.
No matter how Ray looked at it, he couldn’t help but feel like it was a spot for a pet to rest…
In his life. he questioned for the umpteenth time whether he was a biological child of Marcie.
However, Ray didn’t refuse.
He was equally concerned that Flora might have a relapse during the night.
Soon enough, the maid brought pillows as well.
Marcie looked satisfied and immediately instructed, “Flora, you rest well. If you need any help, feel free
to order Ray!”
With that said, she pulled Wally away and left in a hurry.
Before leaving, she gave Ray a signal.The message was clear, “I’ve given you an opportunity, so be clever with it!”
Ray pondered for a moment and immediately understood.
It seemed like he was her biological child!
Marcie was creating opportunities for him!
Flora didn’t even notice the subtle exchange of glances between the two.
Once they were gone, she felt a sense of unease for some reason.
Even though they had dated and had intimate moments, that one time was still an accident.
This was the first time since that night that they slept in the same room.
Flora suddenly felt nervous.
Her voice tightened as she said, “I’ll take a shower. I sweated a lot when I had a fever earlier.”
Ray immediately refused, saying, “No, you can’t. You have just recovered from the fever, and if you
catch a cold again. Marcie might grab a knife and chop me up tomorrow morning!”
Flora muttered, “But I feel sticky all over my body. It’s uncomfortable…”
After all, she was a beautiful woman. How could she tolerate having a sour smell all over her body?
Seeing her pitiful expression, Ray reluctantly relented, “Then just use hot water to wash your body,
don’t take a shower.”
Flora immediately nodded, “Okay!”
Then, Ray came over, intending to support her to the bathroom.Flora couldn’t help but laugh when she saw this, “I’m not that weak. I can still walk these few steps!”
Ray had some doubts, “Are you sure?”
Flora nodded and got up abruptly.
But she had overestimated her condition.
Although the fever had subsided, she still felt a bit dizzy.
As a result, she swayed for a moment after standing up.
She was proved wrong directly.
Ray was startled and quickly supported Flora, feeling a bit anxious. He exclaimed, “You call this not
being weak? You can’t even stand still!”
Flora lifted her gaze and looked at him….
In this proximity, she could clearly see the tension on his face.
She couldn’t help but smile, forgetting her nervousness, and said, “Well… I guess I’m still a little dizzy.”
Ray lowered his gaze and saw her radiant smile.
He suddenly lost his temper, and his gaze was filled with helplessness. He said, “Then stop trying to be
strong. A patient should look like a patient. Be obedient and let me support you.”
As he spoke, he prepared to help her.
But Flora didn’t move. Instead, she took the initiative to embrace Ray’s waist.Ray seemed to be electrified, and he froze in place, looking at Flora tightly pressed against him in
surprise.
Facing his surprised gaze, Flora maintained eye contact and spoke seriously, “While I’m better now, I
want to clarify something to you that I didn’t finish saying carlier.”
She tightened her grip on his clothes and called out his name. “Ray, listen carefully. I don’t want to
break up with you either! Last night, I imagined many scenarios where you were with other women.
I realized that I couldn’t accept it at all, which means that I have feelings for you…
Previously, it was my lack of understanding, but I promise you, I won’t let it happen again!
I won’t easily misunderstand you, and I won’t let you invest in this. relationship alone.
I will also take this relationship seriously. Even if we encounter misunderstandings or conflicts, I won’t
be casual or easily say break up with you like before!”
As she spoke these words, her voice was slightly hoarse, but it was full of sincerity.
Ray was surprised to hear this heartfelt confession from her.
He suppressed his excitement and couldn’t help but ask her, “Are you serious?”
Flora nodded, and her tone was sincere. “Yes, I’m not someone who goes back on their word, so… Mr.
White, would you like to continue our relationship with the intention of marriage?”
Was there even a need to answer that question?
Ray was excited, and he showed her his answer through his actions!He firmly pressed the back of Flora’s head with a mix of heat and passion. And with a hint of
impatience, he passionately kissed her lips.
The sudden passion caught Flora off guard, and she froze.
But the next second, she also grabbed his clothes and responded cagerly.
As the atmosphere around them intensified, Flora realized that she was already being pressed onto the
bed.
Her breathing became rapid, and she struggled to catch her breath.
Moreover, she could feel the noticeable change in the man.
In a hurry, Flora pushed Ray away and smiled teasingly, saying, “Mr. White, I’m still a patient. Do you
want to take advantage of me in my vulnerable state? Besides… this is your house, and your parents
are next door!”
Her words brought Ray back to his senses as well.
Realizing that he had nearly lost control, he awkwardly turned his face away. “Well, I got a bit carried
away. I didn’t control myself for a moment…”
After saying that, he hurriedly got up.
Flora, despite her carefree nature, blushed slightly upon hearing his words.
Ray looked at her and sensed turmoil in his heart.
He took a few deep breaths to calm his emotions.But it seemed ineffective.
“I’m going to take a shower!”
He finally announced through gritted teeth, headed straight for the bathroom.
Flora watched his retreating figure and couldn’t help but chuckle.
The next morning, Marcie knocked on the door and checked on Flora.
After a night of rest, Flora was feeling completely better.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookSeeing her energetic and no longer looking sickly, Marcie was relieved.
“I had some clothes prepared for you. Try them on and see if they fit. Once you’re ready, come
downstairs for breakfast.”
Marcie said, glancing at Ray as she spoke.
Seeing his expression, free from the alcoholic and disheveled look of last night. Marcie finally believed
that the two of them had made up.
“Alright, thank you. We’ll be down shortly,”
Flora felt a bit embarrassed by Marcie’s care.
Marcie smiled gently, indicating that it was nothing, and then left.
Soon, Flora and Ray changed their clothes and headed downstairs.
At that moment, Marcie and Wally were already waiting for them at the dining table.As Marcie saw the clothes Flora was wearing, she was satisfied. “Not bad. This outfit looks really good
on you! My taste is truly top-notch!”
As she said, she pulled Flora to sit beside her and continued. “You know, I’ve always wished for a
daughter! But who would’ve known. I ended up with a boy…”
Facing Marcie’s teasing, Ray retorted. “What’s wrong with a boy? Even as a boy, I didn’t lose out on
looks to a girl when I was young! And let’s not forget, Marcie, you used to dress me up as a girl too! I
had endured years of being ridiculed in elementary school!”
While other children had happy childhood memories, he had a lot of embarrassing moments!
Flora was intrigued by the conversation and immediately asked, “Dressing up as a girl? What’s that all
about?”
Wally chimed in to reveal the story, “During his kindergarten years, he was raised as a girl. The kids
didn’t know any, so they didn’t realize it.
But when he started first grade, someone accidentally found out. And well, his reputation quickly
spread.”
