Chapter 91
She wasn’t sure if every couple was like them, as her only bestie hadn’t tied the knot yet, so she had no one to ask advice
from.
In certain aspects, Ethan seemed to be overdoing it. At first, she thought it was because they were newlyweds, but now they had been married for almost three months, and apart from when she was not feeling well, they were making love almost every day.
She had looked it up online, and it said that it was healthiest for a couple to make love 2-3 times a week, and that doing it too often was not good for the body.
Although he was great at caring for her emotions, and she generally enjoyed It, she just didn’t have his energy. After a while, she would inevitably feel tired, feeling as if she had backaches from working every day.
“Izzy,” Ethan drawled.
Ines was rendered speechless. Was this man trying to act cute? But even acting cute wouldn’t work, she couldn’t compromise on this matter, or she would be the one to suffer.
Ines tried to get off Ethan’s lap, but Ethan wouldn’t let her.
“Ethan, let me go, I have something to talk to you about.”
“Just say it like this.” Ethan’s hand was still dominantly on her waist.
Ines didn’t understand when Ethan had developed this hobby of holding her in his lap while he worked. However, it wouldn’t be long before he was aroused and, as you can imagine, one thing led to another.
Today was no exception. Ines said helplessly, “Are you sure we can have a proper conversation like this?”
Ethan looked a bit embarrassed, but he let her go. Ines sat in the chair next to him, thought for a few seconds, and then started, “Ethan, can you be a bit more mindful about that thing?”
Discussing this kind of issue in a serious place like the office made Ines feel quite uncomfortable.
Ethan chuckled lightly, looked at her, and feigned ignorance, “Mrs. Meyer, what are you talking about? What thing are you referring to?”
Ines glared at him and turned her head, “Don’t play dumb with me, you know exactly what I’m talking about.” Ethan naturally pulled her into his arms and hugged her by the window. The view was great from here, overlooking the entire A City. The sunlight was a bit glaring, so Ines closed her eyes and leaned on him. He said, “Mrs. Meyer, I thought that was how I express my love for you. I can’t control myself when it comes to that.”
After a pause, he added, “If you want to blame someone, I can only say that you’re too beautiful.”
Women love compliments, especially from the ones closest to them. Ines was no exception.
She put on a tiny smile. Although it wasn’t noticeable, she was indeed smiling.
However, she soon came back to her senses and muttered, “Don’t you ever get tired of having sex every day?”
Everything has an expiry date, including marriage. Ines wasn’t sure if they would get tired of each other one day if they kept this up.
Would they get tired? Ethan raised his eyebrows, he wasn’t sure what was going on with himself either. He was nearly 33, no longer a young lad, but he couldn’t help himself when it came to her. This kind of thing just couldn’t be stopped.
“If you’re worried about that, I can tell you seriously, I won’t get tired of it, not in a lifetime.”
“You’re really good at cheering me up.”
“I’m serious.
So, when Ines and Ethan left the Galeana Group to go grocery shopping, Ines suddenly realized that the issue she had raised with Ethan hadn’t been resolved at all. She had been led astray without even realizing it. She felt both amused and annoyed.
That man was truly a master of deception.
Ines, having never embarked on a solo mission for holiday shopping, was at a loss about what to purchase. Ethan also

appeared to be a novice in this endeavor, so they essentially mirrored what others were buying. Upon their return home, they discovered their haul to be predominantly filled with superfluous items. They couldn’t resist exchanging amused glances and bursting into shared laughter.
On the day of the holiday, they arrived at the old house early. Jacob’s family also came over, and the house was bustling. The men were sent to cook in the kitchen, and the women were chatting in the living room.
Ines had been married to Ethan for a while now, and she knew that the men in the Meyer family could cook, so she didn’t offer to help in the kitchen. The women were sitting on the sofa chatting, and Ethan brought over some fruit for them. Ines saw him wearing an apron and couldn’t help but laugh. He never wore an apron when he cooked at home, saying it looked ridiculous
Ashley also joked, “Bro, I really want to take a picture of you like this and post it online, you’d become an internet sensation overnight”
Ethan ruffled her hair, “Don’t mess with me, or I’ll have to beat you.”
Ashley immediately hid behind Ines and hugged her waist, “I’m not afraid of you now, I have Ines to back me up, you can’t do anything to me.” Then she winked at Ines, ‘Dear Ines, you’ll help me, right?”
Ines was amused by her cute behavior and didn’t hesitate to nod, “Of course.”
Lauren whispered to Erica, “I think you can rest assured this time, I feel Ethan has completely moved on from the past, the way he looks at Izzy is full of love.”
Erica affirmed with a nod, “Indeed, I feared he would never bounce back, but he seems to be faring well now.” Ethan had scarcely been in the living room for a moment when Phillip’s disgruntled voice echoed from the kitchen, “Ethan, you young scamp, how dare you vanish for such a stretch and not return, don’t even dream of slacking off, get back here this instant.” A former soldier, Phillip’s propensity for vocal admonishment persisted into his old age. His resonant voice reverberated through the house.
“Grandpa’s calling you.” Ines nudged Ethan and reminded him in a low voice.
Ethan raised an eyebrow helplessly and returned to the kitchen.
“My god, I’m so jealous of my brother and sister–in–law’s relationship.” Ashley leaned back on the sofa.
*Complaining here won’t help.” Lauren teased her daughter.
“That’s all because I have such an outstanding brother. The guys at college are just too immature, I don’t even want to hold their hands, how can I date them?” Ashley said helplessly.
