Chapter 49 I Just Missed You (EDITED)
In the room, Asher and Eleanor were left alone after they finalized the adoption form, and Eleanor had completed the formalities to adopt Lily into the family.
Soon, Eleanor watched as he went and collected all her belongings for the move, handling the little girl's luggage with ease.
As the room had now gone quiet, Eleanor walked to him and spoke with a pleasant expression, "Please take care of Lily! I hope and wish her good fortune for a bright and healthy life."
Asher finished packing and shifted his gaze. He looked at her as she stood before him and glanced up and down, feeling the attractive and feminine aura of the mature, gorgeous woman, who had already caught his interest when they first met. He noticed her charms and how they tempted and seduced him.
Realizing her thoughts, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will try my best to raise and love her as my family. She will be a sister, just as important and beloved."
She giggled while nodding and felt happy that he was trustworthy, kind, and charming. Th.ê most uptod/ate novels a/re published on n(0)velbj)n(.)c/o/m
Asher stepped toward her while smirking, causing her to stare at him with a strange look, and his blue eyes glinted with light. "But I won't say the same for you, Ms.Eleanor~. You are quite enchanting and can steal anyone's breath away with a single glance. Who knows, perhaps I might steal a kiss or two, and maybe even more, if you want."
Feeling her heart flutter and her face flush, she could just chuckle while avoiding his eyes, blushing a lot, and feeling somewhat dazed by his statement.
"Oh, that reminds me!" Asher exclaimed.
"Hmm, what is it?" She tilted her head with a smile.
"I wanted to say that what happened the other day was wonderful; I enjoyed myself and had fun," he said with a grin.
Listening to his words, she sighed in helplessness. 'This charming yet cheeky guy still hasn't stopped being greedy... However, I don't hate it.' She thought to herself, with a foolish smile hanging on her beautiful lips, blushing even harder.
As she turned her face to look into his eyes, he caressed her cheeks. This intimate physical contact didn't bother her a bit since the feelings they had toward each other were quite strong.
In response, she brought her beautiful pinkish lips close, allowing him to kiss her, sending electric waves through both of their bodies.
Eleanor kissed him back as their kiss became intense, expressing their feelings in physical gestures rather than verbal ones.
After a while, they pulled back, taking deep breaths. All of a sudden, their eyes darted back to each other, locking gazes as they hugged and resumed kissing. This time, however, it was even more intense and sensual than before.
They indulged in each other's embrace and affection, with the sounds of their smooch echoing in their ears, drowning the room in bliss and tenderness.
It seemed like a lot of time had passed as both Asher and Eleanor were lost in their intimate, passionate kiss. After a moment, they separated and looked into each other's eyes.
They stood up together while maintaining their distance and trying not to touch or linger.
Eleanor felt grateful to have had an intimate interaction with Asher, which she'd been longing for ever since the rooftop incident, and he too felt satisfied with the memory and his longing.
While collecting Lily's luggage, he turned to look back at Eleanor with a faint smile playing on his lips as a subtle thank you, expressing his gratitude and appreciation, which she nodded in response to, watching him depart with her cheeks turning a little rosy and her lips trembling a bit at the memory of his tender lips, her body shuddering in delight, and her soul becoming soothed.
Once Aria noticed Asher coming with Lily's belongings, her eyes were fixated on the blushing yet pleased and shy-looking mature woman before her gaze fell upon her son, and she sensed something unique going on between the two.
"Fufu, honey, It took you quite a while to get the belongings of our little princess~" she stated with a mysterious glint.
"Haha, I was just expressing my gratitude to Ms. Eleanor for looking after Lily all this time. After all, I admire her caring heart." Asher expressed his honesty, finding no reason to lie in the first place.
Eleanor had been wonderful, and her seductive, gorgeous nature would attract anyone, irrespective of their will. Even though he wasn't required to be in a relationship, Eleanor was a treasure to the point of tempting him even without a prior commitment.
At his earnest and innocent answer, Aria smiled while Eleanor looked away, averting her eyes from Aria's playful purple ones as she could feel the tease lingering, with a crimson shade of embarrassment filling her heart.
"Mommy, I'm tired and wish to have a nice and comfy nap," Lily said as she stretched her hands with a soft, sweet yawn leaving her lips.
"Oh, you are right, Lily; let's go home." Aria exclaimed as she wrapped her arms around the tiny figure, gazing at her tired-looking form.
Soon, they climbed inside the vehicle, with Lily sleeping with the mature and beautiful lady sitting beside her as she watched the gentle and tranquil expressions of the little girl.
Aria chuckled as a hint of happiness emanated within her purple-hued pupils while a sincere smile hung on the corner of her enchanting lips.
Eleanor observed how they acted in a loving manner, which made her heart and mind rejoice. Her facial expressions loosened, showing her genuine personality as a cheerful, compassionate woman whose thoughts were full of unconditional love.
'May your life and happiness shine like the golden rays of the sun that gaze upon your cheerful and pure-hearted soul,' she wished for Lily in silence.
Soon, they set forth towards the luxurious Blake Residence as the afternoon sunlight bathed them in its warm glow, as if signifying the arrival of a new beginning for Lily, while they advanced further into her newfound journey.
