Chapter 153 Save Your Strength For Me
When she woke up in the morning, it was still carly.
When Aurelia got out of bed, she was aching all over. Looking at the mess around her, she lightly
touched her forehead.
“It’s only half past five, don’t you want to sleep a bit longer?”
While still lying in bed, Matthew asked her.
Wrapped in a towel, Aurelia was picking out clothes from the wardrobe as she responded to him, “I’m going to make breakfast. I ate a lot of barbecue yesterday and my stomach isn’t feeling too great. You can continue sleeping.”
The thought of the housekeeper coming to clean the residence, only to find the mess strewn all over the floor and the disarray of the bed, made her blush with embarrassment.
After preparing breakfast, she went upstairs to tidy up.
Seeing that Aurelia was avoiding his gaze, Matthew smiled comfortably. “Why have you stopped calling me “hubby“? I quite enjoy it when you call me that. You did a great job of it last night.”
Matthew also got out of bed, following her toward the walk–in closet.
Aurelia took a deep breath. “You forced me to do it last night.”
“Did I now?” Matthew asked with a smile.
Aurelia could sense that Matthew was in high spirits. She now believed the online discussions about men and women’s post–coital reactions. Indeed, due to their different physiological structures, men would feel relaxed and content afterwards, even showing tenderness toward women they didn’t particularly love.
Aurelia paused at the entrance of the walk–in closet, turning back to look at him.
Seeing him bare–chested, looking exceptionally vibrant, was a stark contrast to his usual icy. demeanor. She tugged at the corner of her lips, her smile was sweet and radiant.
She tiptoed, swiftly planting a kiss on Matthew.
“Hubby, you did pretty well last night. Kudos to you!”
Aurelia gave a thumbs up.
Matthew gazed at the playful Aurelia. His eyes traveled from her fair, luminous thumb, up to sparkling eyes. Suddenly, it felt as if his heart had paused for a moment.
He swiftly swept her off her feet, holding her around the waist.
A broad palm was gently placed around her slender waist.

In a deep, seductive voice, he said, “We still have plenty of time.”
Aurelia noticed a hint of desire in Matthew’s eyes, and it brought back memories of the wild passion they shared the previous night. The thought made her a little scared, for her waist had not fully recovered. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“It’s getting late, I need to go make breakfast.”
Without further ado, Matthew kissed her. “Save your strength for me,

don’t waste it on trivial
When she was pulled onto the bed, Aurelia made a final attempt to resist. “I want to have some oatmeal, but only the one I make myself…”
However, Matthew swallowed all her words.
The senses were especially alert in the morning.
When Aurelia was lost in her thoughts, she couldn’t help but wonder. Matthew, who always appeared so restrained and virtuous, how could he be behaving so recklessly now…
Just one minute time was up for clocking in, Aurelia successfully managed to punch her time. card.
Luckily, I’m not late.
The thought of the morning’s madness made her heart flutter.
This is insane!
She arrived at her workspace.
Before she started her work, she glanced at her phone. It was the first chance she’d had time to check it since the morning.
She hadn’t yet responded to Charlie and Nancy.
Charlie asked her who she had dinner with.
Usually, if she mentioned she was eating, Charlie wouldn’t press further. So why did he suddenly inquire who she was dining with?
Could it be…
“Did he see me having dinner with Matthew?”
Normally, when Charlie and his drama crew had gatherings, they would always choose to dine in some upscale restaurants or go to karaoke bars.
So, it wasn’t surprising that he happened upon her by chance.

night, and I only just remembered to reply now. Charlie, I’ll introduce you to this friend when I have the
chance.
Charlie didn’t respond. Given the time, he was likely filming and didn’t have a moment to check his phone.
and handle matters?
Her two brothers had contrasting personalities. Whenever faced with a situation, Xavier would quickly regain his composure
great calmness. However, Charlie could
sometimes be quite impulsive.
She had a whirlwind marriage with Matthew, so it was only natural for Charlie to have all sorts of concerns about him. If things took a wrong turn, he might even end up in a fight with Matthew.
she
Although she had never seen Matthew fight,cably felt that he would be fierce in a brawl. Charlie, on the other hand, would fight as if he had nothing to lose. If the two were to clash, it was uncertain who would have the upper hand.
She decided to wait a little longer.
After responding to Charlie, she checked Nancy’s WhatsApp messages.
The pictures that were sent were truly out of this world.
Seeing that she hadn’t responded, Nancy sent her another message that morning. Nancy: Aurelia, are you up to something behind my back? You didn’t get swept off your feet by some hunk, did you?
Nancy: Too drained to reply to my message?
Nancy: At this hour and you still haven’t replied to me, there can only be one explanation, you must have done something naughty! Come clean now! You’re not allowed to deceive your best friend!
Nancy: Did anything happen to you?
Nancy: I realized I don’t know your address. Are you ill? I’ve heard that there’s a serious flu going around, a lot of people are running high fevers. If you see this message, please respond quickly, I’ll come to take care of you!
Nancy: Auri!
Nancy: My darling!
Observing the chain of messages, it was clear that Nancy had become flustered later on.
When her messages started pouring in that morning, she was in the midst of a strenuous workout with Matthew.
How sinful.
She immediately sent a voice message to Nancy.
However, she received no reply for quite some time.
Was her phone on silent?
She decided to send another message first to soothe the situation.
Aurelia: I’m okay, don’t worry. I went to bed too early last night and got up in such a rush this morning, I didn’t have time to check my phone.
After responding, she set her phone aside and began to focus wholeheartedly at work.
Joseph’s painting was nearly restored, it was anticipated to be completed by this upcoming Friday. Hence, she needed to dedicate her complete focus on the restoration for the next couple of days.
However, it was only after she sat down that she felt a dull ache in her back and a weakness in her legs.
Fortunately, it was within an acceptable range.
In truth, Matthew was a wolf in disguise!
Meanwhile, Nancy was bustling about in the kitchen.
She had just received a call from Justin. He informed her that his plane would be landing in an hour. He had taken the day off and planned to head straight home.
Having spent over ten days alone in her room, Nancy had started to miss Justin.
He returned without a word, clearly intending to surprise her.
In the past, whenever he returned from a business trip, he would always bring her a gift.
Every gift was thoughtfully chosen, and she anticipated each one like unwrapping a mystery box.
She was filled with joy, so much so that even cooking brought her immense happiness. Humming a tune, she lovingly prepared a nutritious breakfast.
Justin probably got home around nine. He was never fond of airplane food, and having grown. accustomed to the breakfast she prepared, he wouldn’t even touch the hotel’s breakfast.
Thus, the meal was more substantial, combining both breakfast and lunch into one.
Once she was almost done with her preparations, she finally picked up her phone to check it. Upon seeing Aurelia’s response, she promptly tapped her phone screen to check the messages. Nancy: My husband just got back from his business trip and is about to reach home. I was cooking a while ago. I’m relieved to know you’re okay, you had me worried sick! I can’t talk anymore, I’ve got stew on the slove that I need to check on.
Just after responding to Aurelia, Justin’s call came through.
