His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1235

It was dark, but the dazzling diamonds scattered in the heavens still managed to make the sky bright. The quietness of the night was deafening. The street looked bare and empty.

Nick's car turned right as he slowly drove his way through the gate into a block of flats. Its headlights beamed straight onto the trash bin far ahead where a sleeping cat remained unmoved.

He switched the engine off and checked the girl in his passenger seat. Getting out of the car, he headed towards the elevator door as he held Cassie in his arms. Her weight didn't even strain his arms, and surely he could carry her all night. His apartment was on the 19th floor. Carrying the unconscious young woman, he walked passed the janitor's room.

Such a scene was immediately noticed by the security guard on duty. Then an embarrassing conversation began.

The security guy knew that Nick had always lived alone. So he was extremely surprised when he caught sight of Nick at the point. The guy still had his mouth wide open and stared at Nick suspiciously when he passed by. Nick could already read what he was thinking just by looking at the guard's face.

In his daily life, Nick was known as a modest and polite young man. Every time he happened to see the guard, Nick would greet him with a smile. He always left a good impression on the old fellow. But at this moment, he didn't know what to tell him so he felt at a loss. He didn't want the guard to think bad of him, so he stopped at last. Getting himself settled down a little, he greeted him, "Good evening!"

The guard, still frozen, took a while before he recovered from his shock, and then quickly replied with a smile, "Good evening, Mr. Ge." He stared at the young woman in his arms. After a pause, he asked, "Who is…" But he decided to stop in mid-sentence as he now stared at Nick with his questioning eyes. Clearly, he was waiting for an answer.

Nick was confused at his expression. He gave him a blank look.

Seeing his clueless face, the guard pointed at the young woman lying in his arms. "Is she…okay?" he asked in a low voice.

Nick couldn't help but curl up his lips when he heard this. He thought to himself, 'Why does he have to speak in such a tone? Does he think that I will do bad things to Cassie?'

Despite the guard's simple question, his tone of voice and inquisitive look told Nick that what he really meant was "Why are you carrying an unconscious young woman at this hour? What will you do to her tonight?"

In order to not be misunderstood, nor to cause any trouble, Nick explained at once, "Oh, she is my friend. She drank too much tonight. I don't know where she lives, so I have to bring her home. She will be fine. Thanks for your concern."

Knowing that Nick had always been an honest man, the guard trusted what he had said was true. He then gave Nick a nodding smile as he teased him, "Mr. Ge is a very kind and decent man, as I always know. This girl is so lucky to have a thoughtful friend like you."

Nick felt relieved and decided not to comment any further. He smiled back, awkwardly, and then turned to the elevator.

The guard shrugged as he watched Nick walk towards the elevator. With a smile, he suddenly realized that he had just cared too much about other people's personal lives.

Inside the elevator, Nick held Cassie with one of his arm while he reached out to press on the button numbered 19 with his other arm. As soon as the button lit, he quietly waited for it to move up to his desired floor.

Meanwhile, Cassie was still sleeping soundly in his arms, completely unaware of anything that was happening around her.

Nick heaved a sigh as he observed Cassie who lay comfortably in his arms. He thought, 'Such a thoughtless girl! What were you thinking? You should be thankful that I was there tonight. If you fell into the hands of some other evil man in this condition, you would be doomed!' While he thought of this, Nick suddenly felt a sudden stir in his heart. He wasn't sure what had gotten into him so he decided to divert his gaze off Cassie.

He took a deep breath to calm himself down. He couldn't help but look at Cassie again. The light inside the elevator had created a restful atmosphere. Cassie's skin looked soft and light. As Nick continued to keep gazing at her, he spotted a red glow on her face, which made her skin appear softer and tenderer.

He couldn't resist sniffing close to her, as he felt an alluring and pleasant smell coming from her body. Something about her scent left Nick with an inexplicable thought. She smelled like a mellow fruity wine, or a scent of flowers. Her scent was such a strong pull that he found it too hard to resist. It was like a spell that he was unable to get rid of once he was casted. The only thought he had at the moment was to hold Cassie firmly and never let her go!

Ding. The elevator finally reached the 19th floor and halted to a stop. Its doors opened at once.

Nick pulled himself off from his illusion. Carefully, he walked out and headed to the first door to the right. He unlocked the door to his apartment and went inside. The room was dark but that didn't stop Nick. He knew every corner of this apartment by heart.

Several minutes later, he finally took Cassie into his own bedroom and then put her on the bed.

His apartment was neither too big, nor too small, equipped with a hall and two bedrooms. One bedroom was for himself, and the other one was originally used for guests, though he hardly had visitors before who had stayed the night. Without any spare beddings, Nick couldn't let Cassie spend the night in the guestroom, so he allowed her to sleep in his own bedroom instead.

Cassie felt nothing but rather thirsty. She was unaware where she was. Her mind was in such a mess that she didn't even know who the man in front of her right now was.

Without any second thoughts, she grasped the man's hand and guided him to let the water flow into her mouth. Nick was surprised but he held onto the glass as Cassie gulped it in. When she was done, she licked her pink lips, a pleased look shown on her face. She felt much better and couldn't help but let out a gasp of relief.

Her voice sounded so soft and full of satisfaction. Nick felt mellow with such a tempting sound, and he started to feel a strong stir in him. Again, he knew he was about to lose control of himself.

Quickly, he shook his head to force himself to stop such thoughts. He put aside the glass and carefully put Cassie back to the bed.

"Nick?" Cassie gripped him on his arm and looked at him, as he was about to turn and leave. Her hand held onto his arm firmly, but her eyes was clearly in a mist.

Nick turned back and looked at her again.

From her touch, he could feel her ardent heart. He could feel each of her fingers pressing hard on his skin.

She tried hard to wave her forceless hand before his eyes, and murmured, "Is it really you, Nick? Didn't you just leave? Didn't you leave me alone in this room? Why did you come back?"

Her voice became lower and lower, until it turned into a sad tone. Gradually, tears started to well up in her eyes, as if she was about to cry. Her heart felt heavy. She felt so weak and lonely. At the moment, she realized that she needed Nick more than ever.

She felt so anxious. She wanted Nick by her side at all cost. She reached out the other hand to touch the man's face. Slowly, she moved it from his eyebrows down to his nose, tracing each feature, and then stopped on his thin lips.

Cassie's soft touch left Nick kind of itchy, as she slowly ran her fingers on his face. It was torture. Nick could feel sensations burning inside him again. When she finally stopped, Nick felt much relieved and let out a sigh. However, he didn't expect what was coming soon.
