Chapter 258 Walk of shame
The next day! Petrova Mansion!
Liliana woke up close to noon with an aching body.
She was alone in bed. When she came to her senses, she could hear the water running in the bathroom.
She drank some water and tried to find a robe to wear.
She got out of bed and hobbled to the wardrobe to get a robe.
Too tired, she lay back in bed, staring at the ceiling.
She thought of their party and smiled.
Her family was complete now. She did not have to hide any longer.
Then she thought about how she had taken the initiative and how they had gone at it relentlessly.
“Oh! Dear! God! I am so ashamed.”
She blurted out loud.
Jonathan came out of the bathroom just in time to hear those words.
He burst out laughing.
Liliana threw a pillow at him, but it fell close to the bed.
Jonathan picked up the pillow and leaned toward her.
He kissed her on the forehead, “Good morning, wife!”
“Is it still morning?” She asked.
“It’s close to noon.”
He looked at her intensely. Liliana did not know what to say or do next.
She asked in a low voice. “What are you looking at?”
Jonathan laughed, “This is the first time I can see you so embarrassed.”
She rolled her eyes.
He added, “It’s good to see you like this. Please repeat your passion from last time more often.”
She shrieked, “Nathan!”
He laughed, “Yes, I loved hearing you scream my name.”
She hid her face under her palm, “Oh! God!”
He removed her hands, “Are you embarrassed, Mrs. Smith?”
She snorted, “Mr. Husband, don’t forget I am your wife. Why would I be embarrassed? I only took what belonged to me.”
Jonatha laughed.
She was always domineering and sassy.
He teased, “You are right, your highness! Shall I serve my lady in the bath?”
She smirked, “That won’t be necessary. I plan to take a quick rinse only.”
He asked in amusement. “In that case, I shall wait for you to get enough time for a long bath, my lady! It will be my honor to serve you.”
She patted his head, “Of course! I will have my assistant inform you of my schedule for the rose and milk bath.”
Jonathan was speechless.
He pecked her nose and helped her to the door of the bathroom.
She was walking funny and wobbling.
Mariana teased her when she saw them walking down the stairs.
“Tch! Tch! The famous walk of shame!”
Liliana rolled her eyes.
However, she was modified when her granduncle spoke.
“Leon was shameless enough. You guys are even worse. Redo the soundproofing of your bedroom.”
Liliana screamed, “Oh dear God!”
He waved his hands, “Don’t let the kids hear such unholy sounds.”
Jonathan wrapped Liliana in his arms as she hid her face in his chest.
Leonardo chimed in, “Don’t bully her, Nuncle!”NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Jake Green snorted, “Don’t indulge her too much! She has kids now and should show some decency.”
It was a first for Jonathan.
He had never seen anyone talking to Liliana like she was an average mischievous child.
Jonathan helped her to the dining table as she murmured.
“I will go bury my head in the sand, Uncle.”
Mariana chortled.
“I missed you, Uncle.” She hugged his head from behind.
Jake patted her, “I missed you too, Mer bear. When are you getting married?”
Mariana sat by his side and made a face.
Leonardo teased, “Nuncle, I think she changed her mind about missing you.”
Mariana retorted, mildly irritated. “I did not miss you, that’s for sure.”
Leonardo rolled her eyes, “We both know you love me, Mer bear.”
She turned to Jake and cried, “Why did he become like this?”
He laughed.
He had missed this lively environment.
He asked Leonardo, “Where are you staying these days, Leo?”
He replied seriously. “I have a Villa by the outskirts. I made Lester pay for it. It’s close to Jonathan’s Villa that he renovated recently.”
Jake shook his head, “I see you brats planned to make me watch your house while you have fun elsewhere.”
Liliana came back. She and Jonathan ate something light as it was almost time for lunch.
“How could that be, Uncle? We have homeschooled the kids, and we both have jobs. But I plan to stay here during weekends. Nathan has promised to stay home every weekend – Saturday and Sunday.”
James teased Jonathan, “Really?”
Jonathan gave him a side glance. “We can work from home.”
They bantered together and had a lively lunch.
After that, they all made their way to Liliana’s house, where the kids were.
