Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Grandma’s Little Schemes
Seeing the small gift Nora Northwood took out for him, Jasper Sinclair felt much better.
He wrapped his arm around her slim waist and headed upstairs.
Grandma Sinclair looked at the two being so affectionate and felt happy immediately.
"Go rest quickly." She raised her hand to urge them upstairs, thinking that she might soon be holding a great-grandchild, feeling overjoyed.
Raina Sinclair covered her mouth and laughed without speaking on the side, the old lady was in a hurry, but who knew what the young couple thought.
The housekeeper had already tidied up the room upstairs.
Once inside, Jasper quickly took a shower.
Nora went for a quick wash afterward, but she felt a bit awkward after finishing.
"Jasper, the towels in here are dirty and unusable, could you get me a new one?"
Perhaps because she had just showered, her voice became a bit alluring.
He couldn’t help but chuckle at the thought of how nervous she must be inside, well, if he teased her too much, the little one might just ignore him, so he got up to find a towel.
After a while, he knocked on the bathroom door.
"Open the door, so I can hand you the towel."
Inside, Nora opened a small crack, reached out to take the towel, and quickly shut the door again.
Seeing her being so cautious, Jasper only found it amusing, as if he would eat her.
After a while, she was all cleaned up, and she came out wrapped in a towel.
Just as she stepped over the threshold, she felt her foot slip, and her whole body lurched forward.
Seeing that she was about to hit the ground, the man beside her swiftly caught her.
In the chaos, somehow the towel on her fell off.
"Don’t look!" She glared angrily at the guy in front of her with a red face, but it was clear that she had no real power to harm.
With such beauty in his arms, Jasper had no intention of playing the gentleman; besides, the person in his arms was his wife, there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
He mischievously carried her in a princess hold.
Placed her on the bed, starting with teasing that gradually led into indulgence.
Nora was almost losing her mind from his teasing, yet he still mischievously refused to let her indulge completely, occasionally teasing and tormenting her.
Until he saw she seemed genuinely a bit angry, he kindly let her off the hook.
Insistently interlocking fingers with hers, she mumbled a few words and couldn’t bother with him anymore.
Afterward, exhausted, she knew nothing at all, not even when cleaning up, it was Jasper who carried her to the bathroom.
After laying her back on the bed, he went to the bathroom to check the dirty towel and the place where the little one nearly slipped.
After a while, he smiled wryly, Grandma really had her ways, resorting to such small tricks.
Meanwhile, in the old lady’s bedroom, Raina Sinclair looked at the excited old lady and could only smile wryly.
"Mom, you really are something; if Nora knew, she’d probably blame you."
"What do you know, this is the fun of young couples, you should find yourself a husband soon and you’ll understand."
The old lady pouted, seemingly complaining.
This girl was almost forty, yet didn’t even have a marriage prospect. Later she simply got tired of nagging.
"Mom, men aren’t reliable; I’m just enjoying my life." Raina touched her nose, to avoid the old lady’s wrath turning on her, she simply kept quiet.
The old lady nodded in satisfaction, indeed, when it came to grandchildren, she also had to make some efforts.
Of course, she wouldn’t do anything unconscionable since whether or not to have children should also depend on Nora’s wishes.
