Chapter 997
Trisha screamed in disbelief, “Holy cow, your pants are on fire!”
Nicolas looked confused, only feeling the heat on his bum a moment too late. He turned around to see flames sprouting from his pants.
He quickly jumped off the sofa, humedly stripped off his burning pants and tossed them aside.
Coming back to her senses, Trisha rushed forward and stomped out the flames on the pants.
Still in shock, she looked up to ask Nicolas if he was burnt, only to see him standing there stark naked by the sofa, wrapping her blanket around his waist Trisha asked in astonishment, “Why are you using my blanket?”
Nicolas fastened the blanket and looked at her. “So, should I take it off?”
Thinking about his naked body beneath the blanket Trisha blushed and shut her mouth.
After a while, she whispered, “Why aren’t you wearing underwear?”
Nicolas calmly replied, “Just like you don’t wear a bra at home, it’s more comfortable
Trisha was speechless
Nicolas couldn’t help but tease, Didn’t you say you could handle it? How did you manage to set my pants on fire? If I hadn’t reacted quickly, you could’ve burnt me.” Feeling guilty. Trisha said in a small voice. I’m not good at cupping therapy, it’s my first time. Wasn’t I doing well just now? I got startled when the doorbell rang and I accidentally. you know”
Nicolas glanced at her, “Your little accident nearly cost me my fertility. If I had gotten burnt, how would you compensate me?”
Trisha hung her head in guilt, expecting a scolding, then whispered. “If you really got burnt, I would take responsibility.”
Nicolas paused, then calmly asked, “And how do you plan to do that?”
Trisha stated matter–of–factly. “By marrying you.”
Nicolas heart skipped a beat, a tingling feeling spreading from his chest, his heart pounding.
But the next second, Trisha’s words smashed his excited mood. She said guiltily, “That way, except for me, no one would know you can’t have childrent. I’ll keep this secret forever”
The corner of Nicolas‘ eye twitched helplessly.
The next second, his face turned pale, and he almost fell over
Luckily. Trisha was right there and quickly caught him, “Nicolas, what’s wrong?”
Nicolas looked pale. The area that was burnt is starting to hurt.”
Trisha panicked immediately. “It was fine just now. Why is it suddenly hurting?”
“I didn’t feel it before, but now it hurts a lot must be delayed pain perception.”
Hearing this, Trisha got even more worried, “Does that mean you’re burnt? What should we do? Let’s go to the hospital”
Nicolas awkwardly refused, “Leave my some diginity. If the doctor asks what happened, what am I supposed to say? That I burnt my butt while cupping? I’d die of embarrassment before the disease gets me.”
“But you can’t just ignore it” If something really happened, how could she take responsibility?
Seeing her guilt and anxiety, Nicolas started comforting her, “Don’t worry, I’ll go to the bathroom and rinse it with cold water first, then we’ll see.”
With no better ideas, Trisha could only help him to the bathroom.
Nicolas was rinsing in the bathroom while Trisha waited outside.
Apart from the sound of running water, she didn’t hear anything from Nicolas. Trisha couldn’t help but ask, “Nicolas, how are you? Any better?”
After a while, Nicolas said, “You go check the door, someone was knocking”
Trisha had to run to the door
The doorbell rang two or three times and then stopped
Oh my God my stomach’s aching after laughing very hard after reading the starting of this chapter 🤣
