“ Suit my taste ? Have you been planning to lure me onto your bed all along ? ” Brittany teased Horace with a mischievous grin . Horace looked at her flushed , radiant face and smiled darkly . “ You’re my wife , and what we’re doing is part of the deal . ” Brittany was speechless .
Horace had kicked Ida out , and that moved Brittany deeply . She knew Horace was a man who valued loyalty and emotion . By driving Ida away , he was trying to reconcile with her , constantly stepping backward to make room for their relationship .
She figured she needed to change and draw closer to him , too .
Marriage required work . Neither of them was getting any younger and there was no reason to waste any more time .
Horace bent down and kissed her cheek .
Brittany quickly pushed him away . “ What are you doing ? ”
“ What do you think I’m doing ? Let’s do it again . ”
Brittany sighed . “ Seriously , you should take it easy . ”
Horace flipped over and pinned her beneath him . “ Again ! ”
Just as they were caught up in their playful struggle , there was a sharp knock at the door , followed by the maid’s voice calling
out , “ Mr. and Mrs. Larson … ”
Brittany immediately pushed Horace aside . “ She’s calling us ! ”
Interrupted , Horace frowned before yelling , “ What is it ? ”
“ There’s a visitor ! ”
Horace wasn’t in the mood to see anyone . “ Tell whoever it is that I’m not home . Have him make an appointment . ”
With that , Horace kissed Brittany again .
Brittany bit his lip sharply .
Horace winced , eyes flashing red . “ You’re being naughty , huh ? You’re gonna regret it ! ”
“ Stop it ! Ah ! ”
Outside , the maid continued , “ Mr. Larson , you really need to come out . Mr. Hawk is here ! ”
Stanley was here !
Brittany pushed Horace again . “ Stanley’s here ! ”
Just then , Stanley’s voice came from outside the door . “ Where’s Mr. Larson ? I want to see him right now ! Is Mr. Larson in that room ? I’m coming in ! ”
The maid quickly stopped him . “ No , you can’t just barge in ! ”
Brittany panicked . If Stanley walked in and saw them like this , how could she face him in the future ?
“ Get up , now ! ” Brittany urged .
Reluctantly , Horace got up and sat on the edge of the bed , but suddenly his back twitched sharply .
“ What’s wrong ? ” Brittany asked , concerned .
“ I just tweaked my back , ” he groaned , rubbing the sore spot .

Brittany let out a quiet laugh .
Horace scowled . “ What’s so funny ? ”

“ I told you to take it easy , but you wouldn’t listen ! Now your back’s out of whack . You’re not a young man anymore . ”
“ Are you doubting me ? I’m- ” Horace wanted to prove himself .
But Stanley was practically pounding on the door now . “ Mr. Larson , I know you’re in there ! I have important business with you ! ”
Horace had no choice but to stand and get dressed . He opened the door to find Stanley standing outside , looking sharp and confident .
Horace pressed his lips into a thin line , clearly annoyed . “ What do you want ? ”
Brittany stepped out behind him . “ Hello , Mr. Hawk . ”
Stanley glanced between them , surprised to find the two of them in the same room . “ Have I interrupted something ? ”
Brittany shook her head quickly . “ Not at all . We were just talking ”
Horace rolled his eyes at Stanley , cutting her off . “ You young people have no common sense at all ! ”
Brittany looked away , caught off guard .
Stanley fell silent , not knowing how to respond .
