Chapter 1270
He raised his hand, and his fingertips gently brushed against her lips, wiping away the remaining water droplets
from the gargling. “But it doesn’t matter if you hate it! We’re husband and wife. It’s only normal and natural for us
to touch each other, isn’t it? Even if you’re unwilling, are you going to endure it for the sake of the children?”
With that, he turned to leave as though he had no intention of listening to her answer. “Alright, it’s getting late. Go
to bed. I have some things to take care of in the study.”
However, before he could take another step, a pair of slender arms suddenly wrapped around him from behind. “I
don’t hate it,” said Grace as she pretty much buried her face in Jason’s broad back. “It’s just morning sickness. I
