Because she was so angry, she clenched her teeth and swung her fist, hitting him twice.

"Cough..." Noah Drexler coughed twice.

"Keep pretending!" Summer Shawcross bit her lip, looking at him with dissatisfaction, her face full of distrust towards him.

From the moment this man got injured, he pretended to be dead to deceive her, making her cry bitterly like a fool!

Now he’s bullying her even more, so... she doesn’t want to believe a single word or reaction from him!

Looking at her little angry face, a trace of helplessness flashed across Noah Drexler’s handsome face.

"Summer Shawcross, it really hurts."

The force in her punches just now wasn’t light; if it were in normal times, he wouldn’t feel any pain at all.

But now that his injuries haven’t fully healed, those two punches really brought some pain.

As soon as his voice fell, Summer Shawcross’s expression changed again.

"Did the wound get hurt again?" She looked at him nervously, hurriedly asking, afraid that she might have worsened his injury.

Seeing her nervous and worried look, Noah Drexler couldn’t help but smile faintly, and he suddenly tightened the arms around her waist, holding her a bit closer.

"Let me hold you for a while, then it won’t hurt." He moved his throat, speaking in a low, deep voice.

As his words fell, he slightly lifted his head, instinctively wanting to kiss her.

Summer Shawcross paused.

"Isn’t it inappropriate, Sean Morgan is still..." She turned her head, instinctively looking at the place where Sean Morgan had been standing.

But to her surprise...

Sean Morgan, who had been there just now, had already disappeared without a trace, and the whole ward didn’t show any sign of him.

Summer Shawcross was a bit shocked.

"When did he leave?"

As she looked puzzled, the man somewhat displeasedly raised his hand to hold her small head.

"At times like this, don’t think about other men." He frowned, warning her with a stern and domineering face.

She paused, opening her mouth to say something, but the man had already lifted his head and accurately kissed her lips...

"Mmm...?"

...

Two weeks later.

The cast on Noah Drexler’s leg had been removed, and now he was able to resume basic activities. Due to the busy affairs of the corporation, as soon as Noah Drexler’s injuries began to recover, he returned to work directly.

Meanwhile, Summer Shawcross had put aside all her work, staying peacefully at The Hillside Villa to recuperate.

Because...

"Ma’am, try this soup. I specifically went to ask an old neighbor for this recipe. Back then, she relied on this method to successfully have twins, a boy and a girl. They’re about your age now, and doing well!"

Early in the morning, just as Summer Shawcross finished washing up, the housekeeper brought a bowl of strong-smelling soup to the bedroom, smiling broadly at her like she’d found a treasure.

Listening to the housekeeper, Summer Shawcross first showed a curious expression. However, when she smelled the rather unpleasant scent, she couldn’t hide her intense dislike for the soup!

"Does this... really work?"

Can this dark, bad-smelling soup really help her get pregnant faster?

To be honest, she was deeply skeptical about it.

The reason she took a break from all work and stayed at The Hillside Villa was to nourish her body better, and then... try to have a baby with Noah Drexler...
