Chapter 207 Progress
However, Hanson’s body resembled an iron wall which she could not withstand. Whenever she shifted backward, he would move forward. In the end, Vania was pressed tightly against the car door with no way out. Once she stopped moving, he stopped nearing her as well. She could not brace herself to face him as she was afraid that he might make another move on her. Therefore, she turned her head awkwardly and looked out the window.
After seeing her discomfort, Hanson stopped teasing her and allowed himself to calm down as well. He stretched out with his hand and gently put it around her waist before leaning against the backseat with contentment.
Vania’s body was stiff for fear that any movement would cause Hanson’s beast mode to be reactivated. She rotated her body unnaturally and indicated for him to remove his hand from her waist.
At that, he gently pinched the muscle around her waist with a warning intent. Almost immediately, she stopped moving and obediently sat still while her face was still turned toward the car window.
At that moment, Larry opened the car door and got into the driver’s seat as if he was cued to do so. His eyes subconsciously drifted to the rearview mirror. Uh… the backseat is so wide. Why are they squeezing into one seat? Also, why is the atmosphere in the car so strange? He could not seem to put his finger on it. Despite his loaded curiosity, he proceeded to start the car tactfully.
After seeing him in the driving seat, Vania remarked sourly, “This is obviously my car, so why does it look like it belongs to you guys?”
As if she had found a reason to vent her frustration from earlier, her smug but irritable expression had turned absolutely adorable.
Hanson chuckled at his sight. “What’s yours is mine and vice versa.”
“Tsk…” Words failed her, thanks to his brazenness.
They’re already sharing things with each other? No wonder the atmosphere is so strange. Larry did not speak a word and only focused on the road ahead; he wished he could blend in with the steering wheel as if he were invisible. Afraid that he would delay Hanson’s ‘steamy session’, Larry hurriedly drove the car back to Haling Villa.
While they were en-route, Hanson’s hand had never once left Vania’s waist even up to the point when they were alighting from the car. She looked helplessly at the hand around her waist and wondered, Why are things escalating so quickly? Didn’t he just say that he wants to start off as friends? Have we accidentally hit the fast forward button? What’s happening??
On the way to the entrance of her villa, Vania awkwardly tried to shake his hand off her waist again. They had already arrived at the door, so they could not go on like this any further. If her children saw them, they would definitely be angry. After all, her children did not adore Hanson at all. However, she had no idea at that time that her children’s perception of him was already beginning to change little by little.
Even so, Hanson had no intention of retrieving his hand at all and ignorantly said to her ear, “Don’t worry, just leave the children to me.”
“Can you handle them?” She shot him a dubious glance. Then, she realized that she was focusing on the wrong thing. Why should I care whether he can handle them or not?
He snapped his fingers and replied confidently, “Of course.”
At that moment, five or six men who were carrying boxes of toys walked toward the entrance. These workers carried the boxes back and forth several times until there were dozens of boxes filled with toys placed at the door of the villa.
“What are these?” Vania looked at the items in front of her while feeling puzzled.
“It’s a welcome gift for the kids, of course.”
