Chapter 578 578

Vernon's frown deepened: "What kind of stupid question is that? Do you think I don't love you?"

"I--I'm not sure," Chloe replied weakly. "If you do love me, then why aren't you doing me?"

"It's exactly because I love you, that's why I don't want to just fuck you and leave you in a ditch after that," Vernon said. "You're precious to me, that's why I want you to get used to it first. I want you to feel nothing but pleasure, so you'll get addicted to it."

"If I don't like you, or treat you as a random woman I could fuck, I'd just fuck you and leave. There'll be no string attached, and I won't care if you like me or not," Vernon tried to explain his intention. "Besides, why are you insisting on this anyway? I remember you looked terrified when I touched you at first."

"W--Well, things changed between us," Chloe replied. "Now, I want to give myself to you. I want you to touch me...."

"Whoo, your confidence really is really surprising, I love it though," Vernon smiled. "But just like what you said before, things changed between us. Now I want to treat you right first before we can go raw."

"R--Raw?!" Chloe's cheeks reddened even more. She never expected Vernon to say something crazy.

"What's your reaction? I thought you're ready?" Vernon teased. He chuckled when he saw Chloe's flustered face and then gave her another kiss on the forehead. "Go to sleep now, we have lots to do tomorrow."

"Um, are you satisfied though?" Chloe asked. "Since I did this to make you relax and happy for the night."

"I'm very satisfied," Vernon replied without hesitation. "You'd be surprised how hard I'm trying to hold myself not to be rough on you. But as long as you have me in your mind, then I'll always be satisfied."

"Then, I'll be waiting until that moment when you finally decide to go fully rough on me."

"Heh, then we got a lot of fingering to do before that."

"I--I don't mind," Chloe murmured. "I like it too...."

Thus, Chloe and Vernon fell asleep while embracing each other. Though they still had unfinished business, at least they realized they had much to do in the future.

Chloe woke up the earliest as usual. She was still trapped inside Vernon's embrace, trying hard to break free from Vernon's bear hug.

'Ugh, seriously, his bear hug can be a choking hazard,' Chloe complained as she tried hard to wriggle her way out.

She escaped after ten minutes of struggling and quickly distanced herself from Vernon.

"Urgh... hrmm..." Vernon groaned. He frowned in his sleep, and his hand started patting around, trying to find Chloe, whom he had embraced all night. Chloe stuffed a pillow for Vernon to hug so he wouldn't wake up because of her absence.

Chloe let out a relieved sigh after that. She was about to leave the room when she realized her body felt breezy.

"Oh crap, I forgot," Chloe remembered that she was still naked. She wanted to go out but was scared that Mackie might be running around the living room and kitchen. She was an active girl who would wake up very early in the morning to make a noise.

So she rushed to Vernon's wardrobe and used his pajama, two times bigger than her real size, before opening the bedroom door.

She opened the door slightly, and her head peeked out to check her surroundings. After being assured that Mackie was nowhere to be seen, she left Vernon's room. She hastily grabbed her towel near the sofa before throwing it into the laundry room.

She wanted to go down first to change into her pajamas because it would be a little embarrassing if Mackie or Vernon caught her wearing Vernon's pajamas.

But before she could go downstairs, her little girl greeted her Mommy happily, "Good morning, Mommy!"

"Ah!" Chloe got startled by her daughter's sudden greeting. "G--Good morning, dear...."

"Mommy, I want to eat pancakes for breakfast! Can we ask Uncle to make one for us?" Mackie requested. She was just in the mood for a pancake, and she knew that her Mommy could not make one because she only had one hand for now.

"Y--Your Uncle is tired, I can make you a smoothie or toast instead, is that okay?" Chloe offered.

"Really? Aww..." Mackie pouted. "I really want to eat pancakes."

"It's fine, I'll make it."

Chloe and Mackie turned their heads simultaneously when they heard the heavy voice behind them.

Vernon sauntered from the living room to the kitchen. He was topless but wore his jeans from last night at least.

He scratched his head and yawned a few times until he stood right behind Chloe and hugged her from behind, "Morning, Love," he said before giving her a light kiss on the cheek.

Then he looked at Mackie, who stood before them and raised his brow, "And you too, Little Wolf."

"Good morning, Uncle!" Mackie greeted. She didn't see anything wrong with her Mommy and Uncle's intimacy. She liked it, in fact, because it showed that her Uncle loved and treasured her Mommy so much!

"Uncle, can you make me three stacks of pancakes? I want to eat a lot today!" Mackie asked.

"Sure, go watch cartoons first while your Mommy and I cook for you."

"Okay!"

Mackie rushed to the living room to turn on the TV and watch morning cartoons, leaving Vernon and Chloe alone in the kitchen.

It took Chloe a while to register what happened just now. Vernon hugged and kissed her naturally in front of Mackie as if they were already a married couple.

Chloe looked over her shoulder and asked, "When did you wake up?"

"Soon after you, of course," Vernon grinned. "Do you think I won't notice when I can't feel your body in my embrace? I woke up soon after that."

"And by the way, you should wear my pajamas more often. You look cute."
