Sweet Wife So Charming: CEO: Hold Back Your Heart-Chapter 111: Late Return
Moira Young sat quietly on the sofa, trying hard to keep her big eyes open, even though her eyelids were starting to droop, she stubbornly held on.
She didn’t know how long it had been, but she was so tired that her mind was foggy and her gaze became dull; she really couldn’t hold on any longer.
In a daze, she saw a tall and extraordinary-looking man walking towards her.
Moira Young suddenly sat upright and rubbed her eyes, exclaiming in surprise at the person in front of her, "Uncle!"
Julian Sinclair was back!
Moira Young immediately jumped off the sofa and rushed over to hug him tightly, "They said you wouldn’t be back tonight, but I didn’t believe them, I knew you would return..."
Julian Sinclair saw Moira Young rushing towards him, and the fatigue vanished from his body instantly.
"Why didn’t you go to sleep?"
Moira Young pouted and said with grievance, "Waiting for you... Uncle, they said that it’s dangerous here at night if it’s very late because there are no street lights. You didn’t really have to come back."
"Since I promised you, I definitely would come back." Julian Sinclair looked down at the girl in his arms, like a little kitten, and his eyes were full of warmth.
Moira Young buried her head in his chest and snuggled warmly.
Julian Sinclair picked her up, "Go to sleep now."
"Mm, so sleepy..." Moira Young said, and then yawned comfortably, lying in Julian Sinclair’s arms.
"Do you need me to stay with you?" Julian Sinclair asked after taking her to the bedroom and gently placing her on the bed.
Moira Young turned her head to the side and said stubbornly, "No need."
"Alright, call me if you need anything." Julian Sinclair tucked her in and left a small lamp on for her, then left.
Moira Young really wasn’t used to being alone in this room; it was so quiet at night that she could hear the sound of rain outside quite clearly.
After a while, she really couldn’t fall asleep, so she hugged her pillow and went to Julian Sinclair’s room.
She sneaked inside and found that Julian Sinclair was in the shower, and only a few small lamps were on in the room giving it a slightly dim atmosphere.
Moira Young’s big eyes rolled around, suddenly thought of something fun, and carefully tiptoed onto Julian Sinclair’s bed, burying herself under the covers.
She timed it well; just as she got into the bed, Julian Sinclair had just finished his shower and was about to come out of the bathroom.
Moira Young excitedly waited, and after a while she almost fell asleep.
Finally, Julian Sinclair came over, completely unaware of her presence.
Just as he lay down, Moira Young suddenly jumped over and pressed on him, whispering, "Surprise—"
Moira Young lay on Julian Sinclair and hugged him tightly.
Julian Sinclair’s muscles suddenly tensed up; the action was extremely intimate and made him a bit overwhelmed!
Moira Young tilted her head, looking at the tense Julian Sinclair, feeling something pressing against her, she couldn’t help but ask, "Uncle, did you forget to take off your belt? It’s poking me."
Just as she was about to reach out to touch, she was immediately stopped by Julian Sinclair, who turned over and pressed down on her shoulders, restraining a strong urge, "Don’t move!"
Moira Young looked at him puzzled, feeling a bit aggrieved by his sudden harsh tone; she didn’t understand why Julian Sinclair would scold her.
Julian Sinclair saw her eyes brimming with tears and realised he’d scared her.
"It’s my fault." Julian Sinclair frowned, feeling sorry, he lay down on his side and hugged her, "It’s nothing to do with Moira."
Moira Young stayed still in his embrace, "Uncle, are you in a bad mood?"
Julian Sinclair sighed softly, "With you here, I’m not."
Moira Young could clearly feel that Julian Sinclair was genuinely tired today, and she felt a sense of compassion; all she could do was behave herself, eating when she should eat and sleeping when she should sleep.
Moira Young quickly fell asleep in his arms, whereas Julian Sinclair took a long time to calm himself before he could fall asleep.
She woke up the next morning to find herself sleeping on Julian Sinclair’s arm; he hadn’t woken up yet.
Moira Young quietly peeked at the wound on his shoulder; the bandage had been removed, and although the wound wasn’t large in area, it was glaringly obvious.
She wondered how he washed during his showers every day; the wound absolutely couldn’t get wet, and being injured had turned the usually relaxing activity into something quite tiring...
Previously when Julian Sinclair accompanied Moira Young to sleep, he would generally be up early in the morning.
Today he hadn’t woken up yet, and Moira Young couldn’t resist reaching out to touch his exquisite and attractive features; just as her finger touched Julian Sinclair’s seductive lips, he suddenly opened his eyes and gently bit Moira Young’s finger without warning.
"Ah! You were pretending to sleep!" Moira Young blushed bright red, instinctively buried her head in the covers.
Julian Sinclair pulled the covers back a bit so she could breathe better, "Why did you wake up so early today?"
Moira Young poked her little head out, blinking as she replied, "I don’t know."
"Do you want to sleep a little longer?" Julian Sinclair’s voice, slightly nasal and warm from just waking up.
"No, I’m afraid I’ll wake up and you won’t be here anymore."
"Today I’m not going anywhere, I’ll stay with you." Julian Sinclair pulled her closer.
Moira Young was surprised, "Really?"
Julian Sinclair closed his eyes and hummed softly.
Moira Young saw him close his eyes again and kept quiet, obediently lying in his arms.
The two took a nap and when waking up they had already missed breakfast time.
Moira Young hadn’t showered last night, she got up and took a quick shower, and when she came out she saw Julian Sinclair already dressed.
"Uncle, I don’t want to blow-dry my hair." Moira Young wiped her hair.
"No way." Julian Sinclair walked over, ready to do it himself, but Moira Young dodged.
"I’m so hungry, let’s have lunch early today?" Moira Young was really hungry.
Julian Sinclair couldn’t do anything with her; fortunately, they were indoors now, as long as she didn’t go outdoors she wouldn’t catch a cold, so he let her be.
They went to the dining room together, and since they woke up outside of mealtime, the maids were hurriedly preparing something quicker for them.
After the meal, the two went to the study, with Moira Young practicing piano and Julian Sinclair busy at his desk.
"Uncle, you can play the piano too, can’t you?" Moira Young turned around, curious about it.
Julian Sinclair didn’t raise his head, "Mm."
"Can you play something for me?" Moira Young seized the chance; she really wanted to see Julian Sinclair play the piano. Normally Julian was either dealing with company matters or on his way to the company, she truly didn’t know how many skills he had.
Julian Sinclair put down what he was holding and walked over; he almost never refused Moira Young’s requests.
He hadn’t played the piano in so long and was a little rusty, but Moira Young couldn’t tell where he was rusty at all; she watched him with admiration, and even after he finished a song, she hadn’t retracted her adoring gaze.
Julian Sinclair laughed, "What’s with that expression?"
"Uncle, is there anything you can’t do..." Moira Young gazed at him dreamily.
Just then, a maid walked in, "Sir, Townsteen is here."
Julian Sinclair patted her little head, "Pay attention to the lesson."
"Can you stay here with me?" Moira Young didn’t want Julian Sinclair to leave, and she was being adorably persuasive.
Julian Sinclair couldn’t resist her charm and nodded lightly.
Townsteen was invited to the study by the maid, and at the first sight of Julian Sinclair, he exclaimed with delight, "Ah, this is your boyfriend, right?"
Moira Young was completely caught off guard by Townsteen’s blunt comment!
Julian Sinclair paused for a moment, glanced back at her, and Moira Young dodged his gaze; the situation was instantly awkward, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into!
