Luna spent the whole night in the study with Joshua. He finally drifted off to sleep around 4am.
Luna felt a little exhausted and uncomfortable after that. However, she was afraid that the children
would wake up and discover she was gone, so she tiptoed out of the study and back into the children’s
room.
As she gently opened the master bedroom door and walked out, Alice glanced in the direction Luna had
left with an expression of envy and resentment.
She went into the study, dragged a drunken Joshua back into the master bedroom, and gingerly lowered
him onto their bed. Then, she drew a few fake hickeys all over her body with makeup, removed her
clothes, and slipped herself in between Joshua’s arms.
The first thing Joshua saw when he opened his eyes the next morning was Alice’s sleeping face. She
laid next to him, stark naked, with a few dark red hickeys scattered all over her chest and arms.
Joshua’s expression darkened. What happened last night?
“Are you awake, Joshua?“ As if sensing his gaze, Alice slowly opened her eyes. When she realized he
was staring at her naked body, she immediately blushed and tried to cover herself. “What are you looking
at?“
Joshua did not know how to feel about it. He turned his head away from her and asked, “Aren’t you
tired? Don’t you want to sleep a little longer?“
Although he was utterly wasted, he still vaguely remembered that they had been up almost the entire
night, or at least, until 3 or 4 am.
Joshua’s energy levels were different from his wife’s. Ever since they had gotten married, Joshua knew
that Luna Gibson’s stamina was much weaker than his. Every time they spent the night together, he
would be fine the next day, but Luna always had to sleep in until past noon to regain her energy.
Since they had been up almost the entire night, he thought Alice would want to sleep a little longer. To
his surprise, however, Alice chuckled. “No need. I don’t feel tired.“
A gleam of surprise flashed through Joshua’s eyes. “ Really? You don’t feel tired at all?“
“Nope. I’m fine.“ Alice could see the confusion in his eyes, so she immediately lowered her head
bashfully. “I’m feeling a little sore from last night, but otherwise, I’m fine. I don’t need to sleep that long.“
With that, she got out of bed and put on her nightgown. “I’ll go downstairs and make everybody
breakfast.“
Joshua’s lips curled up in a smile. “Since when did you become such a devoted wife?“
Alice grinned at him. “I’ve always been a devoted wife.“
There was another reason why Alice wanted to cook breakfast for everybody. She knew that Luna would
be exhausted from last night and thus would have no energy to prepare breakfast. Therefore, Alice
wanted to take up this responsibility and show everyone
how virtuous and devoted a wife she was.
Alice could not help but let out a chuckle as she thought of this. Then, she turned around and
disappeared out the door.
Joshua propped himself up against the headboard and watched her leave with a frown.
Not only did Luna Gibson’s personality change, but her stamina did as well. How was that possible?
It was 8am. Luna was sound asleep in the children’s room when all of a sudden, someone knocked on
the door.
Neil glanced at Luna, still fast asleep, and frowned. Then, he leaped off the bed and flung the door open.
It was Alice, with an apron on and a bandana wrapped around her head, looking like a proper housewife.
When she realized it was Neil who had opened the door, Alice snickered and said in a gentle voice, “
Neil, where’s Nellie and Aunty Luna? Mommy made some delicious breakfast. Come eat it while it’s still
hot.“
Neil furrowed his brows and shot her a dubious glance. “Since when do you know how to cook?“
Alice smiled at him. “I’ve always known how to cook. Why don’t you try out my cooking for yourself?“
Neil glanced at Nellie, who was working on one of her design sketches, and said, “Alright. Let’s go
downstairs, Nellie.” With that, he slammed the door shut. However, Alice was faster than he was, and
she stopped the door from closing fully. She peered into the room and caught sight of Luna, who was still
sleeping. “Why don’t you invite Aunty Luna along as well?”
