Chapter 88: Mom Created an Opportunity
Xenia Lewis vented her anger at William Scott for some time before finally letting him go.
Actually, when Xenia Lewis first realized it, she was both embarrassed and angry. However, with William Scott’s explanation and behavior, she knew that he definitely did not do it on purpose. However, as a girl, she had to show her dignity after she had been taken advantage of. Otherwise, she would seem too brazen.
“No! Why am I angry because I feel that I’m not reserved enough? Shouldn’t I be angry because I had been taken advantage of?”
Xenia Lewis despised herself for thinking like that. At the same time, she felt a little embarrassed. Should she just ignore it when William Scott took advantage of her?
“Oh, all right. Since I’m acting as his girlfriend now, it’s normal for a girlfriend to have some intimate contact with her boyfriend.” Xenia Lewis quickly found an acceptable reason for herself.
William Scott had no idea that Xenia Lewis had so many thoughts in her mind. However, when he saw that she had finally vented her anger, he heaved a sigh of relief. He really couldn’t take advantage of a woman.
“It’s getting dark. We have to go back. There are many mosquitoes here at night.” William Scott waved his hand and chased away the mosquitoes around Xenia Lewis.
She nodded and said, “Let’s go.”
The two of them returned to Grandma’s house in the village. A group of young people was there. They pulled William Scott to play cards with them, while Xenia Lewis chatted with Janna Sands and the other women.
After ten o’clock, everyone was ready to rest.
Then, William Scott and Xenia Lewis realized that they were in a very serious and awkward situation. The two of them were actually arranged to be in a room with a bed.
The two of them stood in the room and stared at each other for several seconds. William Scott quickly said, “I’ll get another room.”
Xenia Lewis quickly reached out and pulled him back. She glared at him and said, “Are you trying to tell others that I’m your fake girlfriend?”
“Then what should we do? We can’t sleep in the same bed, right.” William Scott grinned.
Xenia Lewis blushed and said, “Of course not. You sleep on the floor.”
His face darkened, but he nodded. “You’re right. I’ll sleep on the floor.”
“Damn, you really took it seriously?” It was Xenia Lewis’ turn to frown.
William Scott said indifferently, “What’s wrong with that? In the past, when I was in the army, I had to overcome all harsh conditions. When we were really sleepy, not to mention the floor, even if we were in the water or mud, all of us would fall asleep immediately.”
Xenia Lewis rolled her eyes at him and said, “Cut it out. We’re not in the army now. If I let you sleep on the floor, others will think that I’m abusing you. In the future, will I still have a place in your family? No, I mean, my sister will be chased out.”
William Scott looked at the bed again and immediately whispered, “My mother is coming over.”
After he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. His mother, Janna Sands, said, “Yvette, I boiled some water outside so that both of you can wash up.”
Xenia Lewis hurriedly went over to open the door and said with a smile, “Auntie, thank you.”
Janna Sands didn’t come in. She just said as she stood at the door, “This place can’t be compared to home, and there’s no bathroom to take a shower. The hot water has to be boiled. Just wipe yourself inside the room. If you don’t have enough water, get William to fetch more for you. It’s getting late. After you’re done cleaning up, rest early. All of them wake up early. You won’t be able to sleep in when the day starts.”
After saying that, Janna Sands left. William Scott immediately knew that his mother must have arranged for him to stay in the same room as Xenia Lewis. His mother had really put in a lot of effort.
Xenia Lewis turned to look at William Scott. Her face was already red. Seeing that he did not move, she came over and kicked him. “Hurry up and get me some water.”
He quickly agreed and went out to get water. There were still some people chatting in the courtyard. His mother immediately came over and whispered, “Son, I can only help you this much. The rest is up to you.”
William Scott didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Mom, I know what to do.”
“What do you know?” Janna Sands glared at him and said, “You’ve been together for so long and haven’t even stayed together. You’re so stupid. You have to be the one to create opportunities. Are you counting on her to take the initiative to sleep with you?”
“Okay, okay, I know what to do.” William Scott quickly took a basin of warm water and returned to his room swiftly.
Xenia Lewis studied William Scott’s expression and asked, “Why do you have such an expression?”
He shook his head and said, “I can’t go out now. Everyone is outside. If I go out, they will definitely think that our relationship is strange.”
“Then why are you still watching me?” Xenia Lewis immediately widened her eyes.
William Scott immediately said, “I’ll turn around. I promise not to peep.”
Xenia Lewis raised her chin and said, “Hmph! I’ll just wash my face and feet. Do you think I’m afraid of you peeping?”
“Oh, you don’t have to shower.”
“Nonsense. How could I shower here?”
“You can wipe yourself. Otherwise, how can you sleep comfortably?”
Xenia Lewis suddenly strode to William Scott and narrowed her eyes. “Do you want me to take off my clothes?”
Cough! William Scott cleared his throat and blurted, “I’m doing this for your own good. It must be uncomfortable to sleep without a shower.”
“You men are despicable.” Xenia Lewis rolled her eyes at William Scott in disdain. Then, she pushed him and said, “Behave yourself. If you dare to peep at me, I’ll fight you.”
William Scott hurriedly said, “I definitely wouldn’t dare to do that. If I peep at you, you’ll dig out my eyeballs.”
There was a chair in the house. He moved it to the wall and faced it. He took out his phone.
William Scott had sharp hearing. He could hear the sound of Xenia Lewis taking off her clothes clearly. To him, this was indeed a very strong temptation.
Fortunately, William Scott’s willpower was still extremely strong. He forced himself to read news articles to prevent his imagination from running wild.
About ten minutes later, Xenia Lewis’ voice sounded behind him. “I’m done.”
Only then did William Scott turn around and see that she had already changed into a set of cotton pajamas. There was no makeup on her face, and her face was slightly crimson. She looked beautiful and innocent, making him lose his focus.
“Hey, are you in a daze?” Xenia Lewis poked William Scott, but there was a smug look in her eyes. Clearly, she was very satisfied with his expression.
William Scott immediately felt a little awkward. He coughed lightly and said, “I’ll go wash up too.” He quickly slipped out.
