Billionaires with Benefits

95 95. We are One

The room fell silent. Only the faint sound of kissing and caressing each other could be heard. Paula pulled away from William’s kiss to catch her breath. However, she could only stare at him in silence because he pinned her with his intense gaze.

“Sit down, I’ll make food for you,” William said in a deep voice. Paula was about to stop him but William immediately said, “I’m injured, but I can move well. Especially when it’s just cooking,” as if he knew what his wife was thinking. Indeed, for William, Paula was now like an open book. It’s easy to read because he already knew his wife well.

Paula then sat on a kotatsu chair in the living room, sinking her feet under the electric blankets on the kotatsu table that had been prepared earlier. She was still silent, watching William open the refrigerator to get eggs and crab meat.

“I know you are very busy and have many things to do,” said William while turning on the kitchen blower and electric stove. He cracked the egg and whisked it, while he sautéed the crab meat in the pan. “But remember, you are pregnant. I don’t want you to stress too much and harm our baby.”

Before long, William was serving crab omelets with mozzarella cheese filling. The savory smell of butter mixed with eggs and grilled cheese should be delicious and make Paula want to devour it immediately. However, for some reason, this time she was not excited to do that. William placed a glass of warm milk beside the omelet plate, asking his wife to quickly warm herself up with it.

“Eat! You are hungry, no? I told Vanessa that Paula would not miss a meal no matter what the conditions were,” said William, daring her to oppose the idea.

Paula smiled faintly, then she took her knife and fork to cut the omelet, causing the melted cheese to flow onto the white ceramic plate. “Thank you for the meal.”

“You don’t need to say thank you. Eat it, for you and our baby,” William said again with a faint smile. He stared at her with a sad and caring look.

Paula shoved the omelet into her mouth. It would have been so delicious if what she was staring at wasn’t William’s bruised face. However, as much as possible she tried to keep smiling so as not to disappoint his handsome personal chef. He tried his best to serve the best food for her.

.....

She was eating in silence. Sometimes, she stole glances at him, rehearsing what she was about to say to him in her head. However, nothing came out of her mouth.

After the last bite, Paula then said, “Am I wrong if I don’t like them hurting you? Seeing you like this hurts me so much.”

William sighed a little. “Of course, it’s not wrong. It’s just that I was the one who chose to come to Yamaguchi’s house,” William answered, tightening his lips, and forming a thin line.

“Why?” Paula’s brows furrowed.

“Because I want this problem to be over soon,” William said again. “I don’t want this problem to drag on so you can relax more.”

Paula said nothing more. She then stood up and walked to the sink to wash her plate and glass.

Without her noticing, William’s hand had embraced her from behind. She felt his hot nose and lips kiss the back of her neck.

Paula’s eyes glistened with tears, ready to flow. However, she endured it as hard as she could because she didn’t want him to know.

“Stop pretending, Paula,” William whispered in his wife’s ear. “Stop pretending that you are fine.”

Paula said nothing. However, this time the tears that had been welling up were dripping down the cheeks.

“I’m tired of seeing you being too hard on yourself as if you have unlimited power as if you will be able to overcome all problems by yourself,” William said again, hugging Paula tighter.

William then turned Paula’s body to face him. He wiped the tears off her cheeks as he said, “Hasn’t anyone told you that you look very beautiful when you cry?”

Paula shook her head. “No one has ever seen me cry.”

“I’m honored to be the first,” William smiled meaningfully, whispering again as he kissed both of her closed eyes one at a time, making her tears flow even harder.

Patiently, William wiped Paula’s tears away. He then lifted Paula’s buttocks and sat her on the kitchen island. His legs slipped between her thighs and brought his body closer to hers, pushing her skirt to roll up and reveal all of her smooth thighs.

William rubbed Paula’s wet cheek with his thumb, then he whispered. “Cry if you feel like crying. Cry when your burden is so heavy. Cry so I know you’re not okay.”

Paula’s lips trembled. Unknowingly, she ran her tongue through her lips. William couldn’t hold back anymore, he got closer and replaced her tongue with his.

Paula’s eyes closed as William’s hand cupped her nape. Even though they had rehearsed this scene many times, now it felt different because he did it when she was at the weakest state, revealing all her pretense.

The woman was tired of all the burden she had. However, she still tried to look fine for the sake of her father and the employees.

“It doesn’t matter if you want to look strong. However, at least share your problems with me. I’m your husband. The person you told him you love him,” William whispered as he parted away from her lips. “I’m the one, baby!”

Paula nodded but no words left her parted lips. It was then, William, again, pressed his lips against hers, feeling those soft lips with his. His tongue then entered her and sipped all the sweetness that was there. Only occasional moans and groans escaped their lips.

Paula’s hand then pulled William’s waist to get closer to her. The kiss got hotter, making both of them breathless.

William then pulled away from his kiss and said, “Share your burden with me. Because from now on and forever, we are one.”
