"Sudden? No, not sudden at all." Milton grabbed her hand, put it to his lips and kissed it, and said dangerously, "You've been fanning the flames on me while I was recovering, haven't you?"
Maryanne felt like weeping but had no tears. Back then, she had indeed bullied him because his body had not recovered yet, so she teased him whenever she felt like it. Seeing how he was being controlled by her but unable to do anything to her, she felt a sense of satisfaction that she had never felt before.
Who would have thought that he would still remember everything? Furthermore, he had chosen to come and repay her today!
The next second, his lips fell again and his hands caressed her. Maryanne thought to herself, "I can just do it, can't I? I've already decided to be with him for the rest of my life. What's the difference?"
"Then, please be gentler. I've heard that it will hurt for a woman for the first time..."
Hearing the girl's soft whisper, Milton's muscles tightened and he almost lost control of his impulse to make her cry.
He frowned and wondered why he had such an idea. This was his beloved girl and he should dote on her. How could he let her cry?
After suppressing his desire, Milton said tenderly, "I promise, as long as you are uncomfortable, I will stop immediately."
"That's not necessary," Maryanne blurted out. "Who knows if I'll get used to it after some time?"
Milton could not help but let out a soft laugh. After which, he lowered his head and snatched her lips once again...
When her clothes were half taken off, and he was ready to do it, Maryanne heard him gasp in her ear, and then said, "Forget it."
Maryanne could not help but be stunned. Then, she watched as he flipped over from her. He bent his right leg and sat up, looking as if he was done.
But nothing had happened yet!
"Why?" As if she had thought of a possibility, Maryanne's eyes reddened. She asked in a sad and wronged tone, "Did my body make you lose interest?"
Milton, who was trying to calm his heart, quickly turned around when he heard Maryanne's words.
She was sobbing under the quilt, and her white back was reflected in his eyes.
He quickly looked away, reached out to grab the man's shirt that he threw aside, and put it on her back.
Unexpectedly, the shirt was shaken off by her shoulder in the next second. Obviously, she was unhappy with him.
Milton could only explain, "Maryanne, although I've been wanting you every second, I still want to marry you first. I offended you just now, I'm sorry."
Hearing this, Maryanne stopped sobbing, followed by a muffled question, "Since that's the case, then why did you take me to bed as soon as you got here?"
"Because I couldn't help it," Milton said with a wry smile. "My body finally recovered and I could finally see you. It would be strange if I could restrain myself."
"Hmph!" Maryanne punched the pillow beside her and turned her head to shout at him, "But I'm feeling very uncomfortable now!" Do you know how happy you've made me...
Maryanne held back the urge to continue.
It was just that her crimson cheeks and the eyes that were filled with the desire to speak had completely betrayed her feelings.
Milton could not help but feel sorry for her. He leaned over and kissed her round shoulder. "I'm sorry, I just don't want you to be with me for no reason."
Maryanne scolded him for being 'traditional-minded' for a number of times!
Milton could only apologize over and over again. He stopped abruptly and he didn't feel very good either. However, he could not bear to offend Maryanne, his baby, before the wedding...
"I'm making the arrangements."
"Really?" Maryanne looked up at him with her sparkling eyes.
Milton couldn't help touching her head. "I'll come to the hotel to pick you up when I'm done. Be good during this period of time, okay?”
Maryanne took the initiative to kiss him on the cheek. "I'll be waiting for you!"

When Amelia received Milton's call, she was in hospital to recuperate.
In fact, she had been in the hospital for several days.
The Hopper and the Ramsay families had become more and more nervous since her predicted birth period was drawing near. Gramps Hopper and Granny Hopper had visited her five or six times.
Granny Hopper almost wanted to live in the Ramsay residence directly. Later, Patrick couldn't bear to see it any longer and sent her directly to the best maternity hospital in Northville. The two families were less nervous.
However, today, it was Nora who came to see her. She brought a bunch of high- grade nutrient supplements, saying that after giving birth, she could immediately start to nourish herself.
"Amelia, I'll put these supplments into the cabinet for you."
"Hey, sister-in-law, wait—'
Amelia wanted to stop her, but it was already too late. Nora had already opened the cabinet and a large number of supplements poured out. Thankfully, Nora dodged quickly, otherwise, her head would have been smashed to pieces.
