Chapter 662 - 14.58

"Why are you so defensive right now? I just want to check on your condition as your caring brother-in-law. Is that wrong?"

[Heh, if it's that simple, there will be no affair between us, you crazy predator!]

[Pupa: And you're a willing prey.]

[Hehe.]

"I… I don't think we should talk, Reed," Gaius said reluctantly. There was a trace of fear in his eyes. He was scared that Clarke might find out about what he did with Reed, and it would be impossible to explain. 

So he just wanted to bury it forever, only between them, a filthy secret that shouldn't be leaked. 

"Why shouldn't we talk? Did I ever do something wrong to you?" Reed acted as if he was wronged. He walked to the bed and then sat at the edge.

He grabbed Gaius' exposed ankle with his warm hand and smirked, "Did you faint because you're too shocked after what we did? You know I did it because you had that strange illness in you, right? And after you swallowed my essence, the heat and itch disappeared, right?"

"So, what did I do wrong to get this cold treatment from you, brother-in-law?"

…

"I'm fine," Gaius replied coldly. He pulled his leg, but Reed tightened his grip on his ankle. "R—Release me. I'm fine. I'll be discharged tomorrow."

"You haven't answered my question," Reed smiled thin. "What caused you to faint out of nowhere and get hospitalized? Was it because of our activity before?"

"N—No, it's because I got too tired," Gaius dodged the question because the truth was… what he did with Reed was too scandalous and nefarious. He got some sort of mental shock out of it. 

A man like Gaius, who never thought of cheating with his husband, actually gave his husband's little brother a blowjob. He even swallowed everything. 

He was guilty in this one, but he didn't have the guts to confess to Clarke, knowing that it would ruin their marriage. 

"Really? Just tired?" Reed's smile widened as his hand crawled up and rubbed Gaius' smooth thigh. "Do you want me to help you with anything?"

Gaius shook his head, "R—Reed, it's… it's best if we don't see each other for a while. Don't come to my apartment from now on. I—I feel guilty for Clarke, even though we didn't have any romantic attraction."

"No romantic attraction?" Reed was surprised by that word. 

True, there was no romantic attraction between them, but he couldn't help to feel sour when Gaius said it so lightly, meaning that there was never any feeling in his heart for Reed.

And it got him upset.

He hated Gaius for being slow and idiotic.

Reed's gaze darkened, and his thin smile turned into a devious smirk, "No romantic attraction, huh? It's true when I shot my essence in your mouth, I don't have any romantic attraction to you at all…."

"G—Good, so there's no hard feeling between us. Please don't tell Clarke about this. I don't know how to explain it…." Gaius begged, and it got Reed even madder than before. 

But he didn't show his annoyance directly. He saw the clock and then snapped his finger to stop the time.

The ticking on the clock stopped, and everything paused, including the bird who flew outside of the window. It was part of his power to freeze time, only allowing those he chose to move inside this freezing time.

Now he had a lot more time with Gaius. 

Gaius was too nervous to realize that Reed had literally frozen up the time as if it was nothing. He got nervous… yet strangely aroused when Reed's strong hand slowly crawled upon his thigh into his waist, gently rubbing the waist.

He only wore a thin pajama, so he could really feel the warm hand rubbing him. 

"R—Reed, what if Clarke and the kids suddenly barged in?! P—Please stop this!" Gaius begged. 

Reed raised his brow. It seemed that Gaius was too nervous that he didn't even realize Reed had frozen the time for them. 

And it roused his devilish urge to tease this idiotic man even more.

"Ah!" Gaius zipped his mouth as he accidentally moaned when Reed rubbed his inner thigh. The red tint on Gaius' cheeks became too obvious to hide, giving Reed a strange pleasure.

He wanted to conquer this idiotic man, own him completely, and then ruin everything he had, so Gaius would have no other way out except turning to his direction, begging for Reed to take him in. 

'This shitty, naive, idiotic man dares to say that he doesn't have any romantic feeling to me? Heh, I don't have any attraction to him as well. I just want to ruin him… I'm sure of it….' Reed assured himself. 

[Pupa: Ding! Reed Ville's Fatemeter increases to 50%.]

[See? Told you he's that type of man who only falls in love when there is a challenge in front of him. He is that kind of nefarious man who likes to see ruination, especially when it's something scandalous.]

"Why are you moaning, brother-in-law? I just want to give you a message since you said that you got hospitalized out of exhaustion," Reed reasoned. 

He continued rubbing Gaius' inner thigh despite Gaius' protest. He got even more brazen as he crawled up and started fondling with his butt cheek. 

"R—Reed, please don't, we will be seen!" Gaius begged. He was too scared that he could be caught red-handed by Clarke and the kids. 

"Hm? Why are you scared? You said there is no romantic attraction between us, right? So it's fine for me to do this because I'm just your little brother-in-law trying to help to ease your pain," Reed said. He was still angry that Gaius didn't admit his romantic attraction.

Obviously, it was Gaius who was interested in him. Who wouldn't be interested in him anyway? He was Reed Ville, the richest man in this country, and he was quite young for such status.

"Remember, brother-in-law, there is no romantic attraction between us.. You said it yourself."
