Chapter 8

Sometimes Sandra was ready to go back to that house because she could still find traces of her mother's life in the room where she had lived.

But they could only be found in this room. As soon as Jiang Annabelle entered the house nine years ago, she changed the furniture and every decoration her mother bought. Sandra, 15, stubbornly guarded the room, refusing to let anyone touch anything in it. As a result, Jiang Annabelle slapped her in the face and she unceremoniously bit Jiang Annabelle's arm, leaving a bruise on it.

Finally, Roger Jones compromised and moved to another room with Jiang Annabelle. And this room was kept.

Back in the room, Sandra felt her mother still by her side. It seemed that as long as she reached out, she would be held by her mother's soft, warm hands.

But the dusty furniture told her cruelly that she had lost her mother for a long, long time.

Sandra rolled up her sleeves and fetched a basin of clear water, carefully sweeping the room.

Unconsciously, it was almost noon. With Sandra cleaning, the dusty room became bright and clean.

Sandra felt better now. As she left the room, she saw Oceane Jones galloping out the door and stopping in front of Lu justin, who had just come up.

- Brother-in-law!

Delicate nude makeup and neatly arranged chestnut hair made Oceane look especially pure and charming.

- I like the necklace you sent me, thank you! she said.

She caressed the expensive necklace around her neck and her joy almost spilled out of her bright smile.

Lu Justin replied insipidly,

- Please.

- What are you doing here? There's nothing to see on the second floor.

Oceane grabbed Justin's arm involuntarily and added,

- Let's go downstairs together and let Mom and Dad look at the necklace you sent me!

Lu Justin frowned and wanted to loosen Oceane Jones' hand. Oceania, however, squealed and leaned against him, looking somewhat pained.

- Brother-in-law, please support me with your hands. I sprained my ankle the other day and I feel terrible now. I don't know if I ran too fast earlier.

After she finished talking, Oceane bent down to check her ankle. And because of this action, the straps of her dress "accidentally" slipped off. Just like the parts under her shoulders were about to be exposed...

- Injuries to muscles and bones take a hundred days to recover.

Sandra suddenly reached over and relaxed Oceania's straps, adding with a smile,

- Oceane, you'd better stay put and not run. I'll ask Aunt Liu to come and help you.

When Aunt Liu went upstairs, Sandra looked at Lu Justin with a bright smile.

- My husband, I would like to ask you a question.

Her beautiful peach blossom eyes shone. And when the intimate address jumped from her pink lips without warning, Justin felt as if the tip of his heart had been scratched by a cat's paw. However, he just responded with a single word as if nothing had happened.

- H'm.

- I remember you saying... you only like natural beauties, right?

After that, she shot a quick glance at Oceane, as if referring to her. In that moment, Oceane's expression changed dramatically.

A slight smile crept to the corner of Justin's mouth.

- H'm. He gently pushed the long hair on Sandra's cheek behind her ear with affection.

- I love someone like you, wife.

"He called me his wife?"

Sandra was terribly stunned and she looked at Justin in amazement. It seemed to her that his playful, happy smile was about to be imprinted on her mind.

She suddenly felt her head go blank and could only vaguely remember the temperature and feel of Justin's fingers brushing her cheek.

Justin put his hand around Sandra's waist and hugged her, signaling her to come to her senses, or their "affection" drama would be exposed.

Sandra felt an itch on her waist and that feeling Justin brought to her. Surprisingly, she didn't hate it.

After coming to her senses, she finally realized that she and Justin were too intimate right now. Instinctively, she wanted to escape, but she was held tighter by Justin.

She gave Justin a charming but warning smile.

Justin continued to make Sandra stay in his embrace happily as if he hadn't received her warning. Aunt Liu finally arrived on the second floor.

Sandra had no choice but to order Aunt Liu,

- océane's ankle is bothering her. Help her down.

Aunt Liu obeyed the order and helped océane, who was reluctant to go down and her heart was still floating with fear, down.

Sandra removed the stiff smile from her face and shot Justin an angry look, saying:

- How long are you going to take advantage of me?

The guy's hand was still on her waist!

Justin frowned and there was actually a bit of grievance in his tone.

- I didn't expect you to be such a person, he said.

Then he pointed to Sandra's hand, which was still in his arm, and continued,

- Of course, you're the one who gets to enjoy me a lot longer.

Damn it! Sandra quickly withdrew her hand. Justin also released it at about the same time.

Sandra's face was strangely warm. She didn't argue about it with Justin anymore and ran downstairs.
