Chapter 322 You Won't Know Until You Try
He bent down, pulled Sophia up from the bed, picked up her shoes from the floor, held her slender, fair ankle with one hand, and put the shoes on for her.
"Alright, come down now."
Sophia wiggled her little feet and pouted in dissatisfaction, "Carry me."
The soft pink slippers on her feet made her skin look even more snow-white and delicate like cream. Her toes were round and full, her nails crystal clear - delicate and pretty.
Finnley's gaze fell on her little feet, his eyes darkened, and his Adam's apple rolled involuntarily. He casually muttered "spoiled," but still resignedly picked her up from the bed and headed downstairs.
In the dining room downstairs, Matthew and Joshua were already seated at the table, with servants bringing out the food.
Hearing footsteps from the staircase, both of them turned to look.
"Matthew, Joshua."
Sophia wrapped one arm around Finnley's neck and waved at them with her other hand.
Matthew's face, which had been stern for so long, finally softened a bit, showing a faint smile. "You're all grown up and still need to be carried."
"I like it!" Sophia nuzzled Finnley's chin, her legs swinging carelessly, looking quite pleased.
Sophia seemed well-rested.
Matthew and Joshua smiled helplessly. "Come sit down and eat. We specially asked the chef to make all your favorite dishes."
Finnley put Sophia down and sat beside her.
"Try this, it's delicious." Seeing Finnley wasn't very interested, Sophia kept putting food on his plate.
"This is good too."
"This one's good for your health, eat more."
As soon as she said this, the table suddenly went quiet.
Matthew and Joshua both turned their attention to Finnley, their eyes examining him.
Good for his health?
With Finnley's build, does he need health supplements?
Could it be that after two years, he's developed some hidden illness?
Joshua's expression grew increasingly complex. He reached out and patted Finnley's shoulder. "If you have any sexual dysfunction, I actually have some medicine."
This concerns Sophia's lifelong happiness - can't be careless!
Finnley's hand paused slightly while eating. He casually brushed off the hand on his shoulder, the disdain in his eyes plain to see.
"Don't need it."
Joshua awkwardly touched his nose and looked at Sophia with a pitiful expression.
However, Sophia's eyes were practically glued to Finnley - she didn't even look at him.
Joshua: "..."
Turns out I'm the fool here.
After dinner, Sophia took a car from Matthew's garage and went out with Finnley.
As soon as Sophia got in the car, a dark shadow pressed down on her.
Her hand paused while fastening the seatbelt. Looking up, she met a pair of eyes full of danger.
"I have sexual dysfunction?"
Finnley's straight, firm arm pressed against the car door. He leaned in very close, and his hot breath sprayed on Sophia's cheek as he spoke - unspeakably intimate.
Sophia's long, curled lashes trembled slightly. She felt inexplicably guilty. "Whether or not you have sexual dysfunction - how would I know?"
Finnley froze, then lifted her chin with his hand and kissed her.
He looked cool and reserved on the outside, but his thin lips were warm, pressing against hers without asking.
He rolled and licked her lips, his tongue prying open her teeth, tangling with her tongue.
His low, gritting voice dissolved between their lips and teeth. "Whether I have sexual dysfunction or not - we'll know after trying."
His hand that had been holding her chin slowly moved up, his rough fingertips gently caressing her cheek. In an irresistible manner, he trapped her in the passenger seat.
Sophia was held by him, her breathing becoming hot, letting him take over completely.
A warm hand slipped under her shirt hem, clasped her waist, stroked her back, and finally landed on her bra clasp.
Though in his memory this was the first time undoing such a clasp, his technique was surprisingly skilled.
Sophia sensed his movement and instantly snapped awake, pushing against his chest. "Business first."
Finnley's hand paused slightly. He lifted his lips from her neck, his dark, deep eyes full of undisguised desire.
In those eyes, it was like a scorching fire was burning fiercely, carrying a dangerous aura that seemed capable of devouring everything.
Sophia was all too familiar with such a look. She lowered her eyes to glance at his genitals, then quickly looked away as if burned.
Finnley followed her gaze, then released her and leaned back in the driver's seat.
His heavy breathing was particularly obvious in the car, carrying an indescribable restraint and endurance.
Sophia became obedient now, pressing her lips together and trying to minimize her presence.
Seeing this, Finnley couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Hearing Finnley's low, husky laugh, Sophia glared at him irritably. "Close your eyes."
"What?" Finnley looked at her in confusion.
In Finnley's eyes, the desire hadn't completely faded. His eyes sparkled with scattered light, like stars on a summer night - brilliant and dazzling, making people unable to help but be mesmerized.
Sophia's cheeks reddened, and she repeated, "You, close your eyes."
Finnley stared at her, then understood what she meant and obediently closed his eyes.
It wasn't to avoid suspicion, but rather... he was currently at the edge of exploding.
Even if Sophia just exposed a section of her fair, slender waist, he was afraid he couldn't control himself and would do something beastly.
Seeing Finnley close his eyes, Sophia still didn't feel reassured and waved her hand in front of him.
As a result, before she could pull her hand back, Finnley precisely grabbed her wrist.
"You're cheating! Didn't I tell you to close your eyes!" Sophia was so angry she wanted to hit him, but helplessly, with the strength difference between men and women, even though Finnley wasn't using any force holding her wrist, she still couldn't break free.
"There's light outside." Finnley suddenly spoke and closed his eyes again.
The implication was that even without opening his eyes, as long as he wasn't blind, he could sense something moving in front of him.
Realizing she had judged him unfairly, Sophia blinked in embarrassment, withdrew her hand, quickly reached under her shirt hem, and refastened her bra clasp.
"Okay, you can open your eyes now."
Finnley opened his eyes as told, said "sit properly" in a low voice, then started the engine and drove away from the villa.
Twenty minutes later, Finnley parked the car in front of an alley. Following Sophia out of the car, they walked into a villa.
"Dane, Robert, I'm here to see you!"
As soon as she entered, Sophia couldn't help but call out, pulling Finnley inside.
