Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband-Chapter 1013: Never Dated a Boyfriend Before?
Cain Shaw walked over, shrugging, "No idea, probably just another person captivated by my looks. What’s wrong, Tanya, are you jealous?"
Tanya Sullivan turned around, her clear eyes resting on his handsome face, "What did that woman just say to you? A phone number, right?"
This time Cain didn’t speak, his deep, dark eyes steadily looking at Tanya.
"I learned some lip reading from my dad before. The woman probably gave you her number, hoping you’d call her."
"Moreover, when you had your arm around my shoulder just now, I noticed your fingers twitch unconsciously when you saw the scar on that woman’s face. That’s a conditioned reflex in psychology; that woman must mean something to you."
Cain looked at the young girl in front of him and didn’t answer the question. Instead, he chatted nonchalantly, "That’s great. Did you learn all this from your dad?"
Tanya nodded, "Some of it, yes, but I also read a lot on my own. I admire my dad a lot. He’s the greatest person. I want to be a police officer like him, but he doesn’t agree. Dad said Mom left us because this job is too dangerous, and she didn’t want to live a life full of anxiety."
Jason Hollis was the perfect father; he never let his profession compromise his love for his daughter, and hoped she could grow up safely like any other child.
Cain nodded, curling his thin lips, and his smile was bright, revealing a row of white teeth, "Tanya Sullivan, you really should listen to your dad."
Tanya had met many people, but never anyone like Cain Shaw. Outwardly he seemed carefree and rebellious, full of wicked charm, but she knew it was only surface-level. He was a deeply complex and dangerous man, skilled at disguise. Sometimes the cold and sleepy glint in his eyes revealed an unfathomable depth, making him an enigma.
"Cain, why did you save me?" Tanya asked.
That night she saw her father fall in a pool of blood, her eyes reddened, and she stabbed Carney Shaw’s left eye with a pencil. But her strength and skill were no match for Carney. Just as he was about to catch her, the alarm sounded, and amidst Carney’s panic, she managed to escape.
Once outside, two men in black grabbed her, saying, "Mr. Shaw wants to see you."
Thus, she became Cain Shaw’s new companion.
Carney was searching for her everywhere. Little did he know that the daughter of the Hollis family was right under his nose.
The most dangerous place is often the safest place.
Tanya never understood why Cain saved her.
Cain’s smile remained unchanged. He suddenly took large strides, moving closer to Tanya, "Do you really want to know why I saved you?"
His tall frame cast an oppressive shadow in front of her. Tanya was never easily scared, but something about Cain instilled a sense of... awe.
Tanya retreated cautiously, her beautiful eyes darting side to side, "Yes, I want to know."
Quickly, her back hit the wall, with nowhere left to escape.
Cain closed in, his heavy black boots stopping in front of her. He reached out, his slender fingers pinching her delicate chin as he grinned wickedly, "You also know I don’t get along with Carney. Rather than letting him catch you and show off to the boss, isn’t it more fun to play a little prank and have him spin in circles?"
"Besides, you know what would happen if Carney caught you, right? He’d definitely kill you—oh no, wait, he’d assault you first..."
"The daughter of the Hollis family is so fiery, easily sparking a man’s desire to conquer. I also want to conquer you, to see what you really taste like."
The more he spoke, the less serious he became. His fingertips deliberately caressed her tender skin along her jawline, and Tanya could feel his hands were rough, the coarse touch like sandpaper, making her skin prickle with tiny bumps.
"Let me go, old man!" Tanya deliberately emphasized the words "old man."
Cain knew she was hinting at his age. He was in his thirties, while she was only 19, making him feel like an old man seducing a young girl.
Cain thought of letting go, but his ears suddenly twitched—someone was outside.
It was Carney, returning.
Carney approached, and the guards outside called out, "Four..."
Before the words "Four Bro" could even leave their lips, Carney swiftly signaled a "shush" by placing a finger against his lips.
The men immediately fell silent.
Carney quietly stood by the door, peeking inside through the crack.
Cain noticed, but Tanya hadn’t. She just wanted to put some distance between them, to get away from him.
"Get away... hmm!"
Cain immediately blocked Tanya’s mouth.
Neither of them closed their eyes; Cain had no traces of lust, only cautious alertness. He looked at the girl in his arms, scared, her eyes glancing nervously, brimming with youthful innocence.
Her lips were still soft, carrying a hint of fragrance, like jelly, making one want more.
Cain’s handsome face showed a hint of unease. He raised his hand to cover her wide-open eyes, "Make noise."
What?
Tanya was confused and didn’t understand.
"Don’t know how? Never had a boyfriend before?" Cain whispered.
Tanya still didn’t react.
Then Cain pressed her against the wall, his hand sliding down, slipping underneath her blue and white shirt, and squeezed.
Ah!
Tanya exclaimed, immediately lifting her hands to push him away.
"What’s with the yelling? We haven’t even gotten to the main event yet." Cain growled coarsely, then wrapped her soft waist with his arm, pinning her down on the hospital bed. A thrilling scene was about to unfold.
Carney, outside, withdrew his gaze. Not watching anymore, as he hadn’t seen anything questionable.
"Four Bro, isn’t it inappropriate to peep like this? Mr. Shaw will get mad if he finds out." The guard said nervously.
Carney patted the guard on the shoulder, "Your boss is really something, can’t even wait any longer, getting it on in the hospital room, haha. Don’t tell Shaw I was here. I’m leaving."
This time Carney was truly leaving.
Cain listened intently to the sounds outside; once Carney left, the cold vigilance in his eyes gradually faded. Suddenly, Tanya below him raised her knee, aiming fiercely toward his groin.
Cain, being who he was, wouldn’t let Tanya succeed. He had to protect himself when around this wild little cat.
