When Aria saw the picture of Liam proposing to Emma and the giant pink diamond in the hospital, she was so angry that she smashed the cup at the bedside. “That b**h!” she screamed.

The doctor outside heard the commotion and came in disgruntled, “Please don’t yell at the hospital. You’re disturbing other people!”

Aria was still screaming, and the doctor growled, “If you don’t stop, I’ll call the police!”

Aria quit screaming. She was accused of a crime. If she got arrested, she would be sent straight to jail. Her only option was to play sick in the hospital, so she didn’t scream again. After she was brought in, all the evidence pointed to the blood she shed being fake. Plus, the DNA test

from the amniocentesis showed that the baby was not Elijah’s. All her sneaky plans were exposed, and even the doctors were shocked by how low she could go.

Emma and Liam had just exited the city hall. The sun was shining perfectly, and Emma held Liam’s hand. They were the first couple to register today. While they walked out the door, Liam gently lifted his hand to fix Emma’s windblown hair and said, “You woke up early in the morning, Go back and get a little more sleep.”

Emma smiled sweetly at Liam and said, “Okay, but are you going home with me?”

Liam Laughed and gently pinched her rosy cheek. “Of course. It’s the first day of our marriage.”

“Our bedroom is on the second floor. There are gardens and a golf course outside, and in the basement is a movie theater and a Jacuzzi designed especially for you. The house can be converted later if you have something else you like,” said Liam.

Emma looked around and then at the giant pink diamond ring on her finger. She couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wow, you’re loaded!”

Liam chuckled. “Yeah, that’s why I need a woman to spend my money. So, don’t you ever save money for me.”

Emma snorted out a laugh when she heard him say that.

Liam joined Emma on a day of rest at Icovine Estate. However, when nighttime arrived, the atmowhere between them became awkward. Emma had never had sex before, and her heart couldn’t help but race at the thought of what

Liam needed Emma to help him bathe due to his disability. Inside the bathtub, his s**y, tanned skin hung with water droplets, and his muscle lines were smooth and enticing, hard yet resilient. Emma lowered her head, trying hard not to look at him, but her face could not help but still blush.

Liam looked at her lovingly. “Are you nervous?”

“A little,” said Emma.

“We’re married,” said Liam.

But in her heart, Liam had always been a high and mighty man with an iron hand. She loved and respected him.

“You’re done. Let me get your clothes,” Emma said and was about to leave.

Liam grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. “Get used to it, then you won’t be nervous.” He leaned to her and kissed her on the lips.

His testosterone instantly flooded Emma. Emma stared wide-eyed as Liam stuck out his tongue to pry open her teeth, saying, “Close your eyes.” Emma dumbly followed what he said. He hooked his lips in satisfaction, his big hand holding the back of her head, sucking and kissing her tenderly, leading her, tempting her, until she finally relaxed and hugged him.

When they were in bed, Emma stopped him abruptly. “Liam…”

“Still nervous?” asked Liam.

Emma looked at him and shook her head, her beautiful black hair falling over her shoulders.

Liam breathed heavily, hugged her, kissed her hair and brow, and said gently, “It’s okay. We’ve got plenty of time.”

Emma was a bit embarrassed and kissed him on the cheek.

“I’ll rest in the study. Sleep tight, will you?” He was afraid he might not be able to control himself since she was there, lying in his bed.

Emma felt empty inside but nodded docily. Liam tucked her in and went to the study.

Emma was alone in bed, but she couldn’t sleep. It was her wedding night. She fell asleep the previous night without remembering anything, but tonight was different. She couldn’t bear the thought of leaving Liam alone in the study. With this in mind, she got up and tiptoed towards the study.

“Liam,” she called out.

Liam was surprised to hear her voice. “Still up?” he asked. Then, seeing her bare feet, he patted his lap and said, “Come here. You don’t wanna catch a cold.”

Emma did as he said, sat on his lap, and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Let’s go to bed.”

“Okay,” answered Liam.

Emma kissed Lam on his cheek and suddenly felt Liam’s body acting to her,

Her face abruptly burned, and she stammered, “Your lower body actually has feelings, right?”

Liam squinted and asked, “Which part exactly?”

“Shut up!” Emma pushed him away shyly and stood up.

‘What a cunning man!’ she thought.
