Chapter 1751 Shane Likes The Gift

“What a seductress!” Shane gripped the water cup tightly, his voice hoarse as he muttered under his breath.

Indeed, having a stunningly beautiful wife was great. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

But sometimes, he couldn't help but want to devour her.

If it weren't for the upcoming mealtime, he would definitely take her there and then. He had to let her know the price of tempting him.

Natalie had no idea that the way she walked away and her retreating figure, could stir such an impulse in a man.

If she knew that the man thought she was trying to seduce him, she would definitely cry out in injustice.

It wasn't her who tempted him. She was just walking, doing nothing out of the ordinary.

Was it her fault if the man couldn't control himself?

Natalie closed the bathroom door, and only then did Shane reluctantly withdraw his gaze, lowering his head to look at the box in his hands.

The box wasn't heavy. In fact, it was quite light.

Who knows what's really inside, yet that woman, Lina, has the audacity to claim that I will like it.

A hint of disdain flashed in Shane's eyes. He then moved the laptop from his lap, placed the box on his thighs, and casually untied the decorative knot on the box.

Once the knot was untied, Shane could easily open the box lid.

With a dismissive wave of his hand, he lifted the lid of the box. At last, the contents within were revealed before his eyes.

Upon seeing what was inside, Shane's pupils contracted. Oh, my. This is actually...

Shane reached out his hand, touching the object inside, his heartbeat slightly quickening.

He never would have guessed that the gift Lina sent them would turn out to be this.

At this very moment, the casual indifference Shane had initially shown while unwrapping the gift was nowhere to be seen, let alone the disdain he felt when Lina said he would like it.

At this moment, all he had was excitement and an overwhelming sense of urgency.

Hmm, this time, that woman Lina, finally did something good, something that makes me happy.

She was right, he truly loved the gift. In fact, he loved it immensely.

Considering that woman had given him such a gift, he might as well forgive her for interrupting his intimate moment with his wife.

Shane's thin lips curled up slightly.

Afterward, he tossed aside the box lid, using his slender fingers to pick up the object inside the box.

Looking at the items in the box, Shane's gaze was deep and mysterious. His Adam's apple moved slightly, and his mind began to imagine how these things would be put to practical use soon.

At that moment, the sound of a door opening came from the direction of the bathroom.

Shane motioned to put the object back in its place, then looked up towards the direction of the bathroom.

Natalie had finished in the bathroom and emerged from it. She walked gracefully in his direction, holding the sides of her skirt with both hands.

As she drew closer, Shane's eyes grew increasingly dark, his gaze constantly scanning her, as if he was considering something.

Natalie felt it, her steps faltered slightly, and a sense of foreboding immediately rose in her heart.

What does his gaze mean?

Why does he look as if he wants to devour me?

It's an illusion, right?

Natalie swallowed nervously, looking at the man with some unease. As she gazed into his deep, mysterious eyes, her heart lurched. “Darling, what's... what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on me?”

She could feel his gaze not only scanning her face but also taking in every part of her body as if his eyes were practically pinned on her.

This made her wonder if there was something about her that he just couldn't take his eyes off.

“It's nothing. I just want to see you,” Shane replied in a low, husky voice. At the same time, he picked up the lid of the box, calmly covering it, hiding the contents inside.

Natalie couldn't help but find him peculiar, “It's not like I haven't seen you in a long time. The way you're talking makes it seem like we've been apart for ages.”

Shane curved his lips. “Of course, we've been apart for a long time. They say a day apart feels like three years. Even though we've only been separated for a few minutes, it feels like several days. That's why I wanted to see you.”
