Page 170 of My Tempting Woman

As Eva’s eyes widened in surprise, she realized none other than Richard had informed Stephen.

“No need! I don’t need any false statements. “”

Stephen pulled her more close

“Sure! If you ever need a compliment, simply look into my eyes, and you will see the genuine admiration and appreciation I have for you. Eva, I want you to know that you are the most beautiful woman I have ever come across in my life. My love for you is unconditional, so I will continue to love you no matter what clothing you choose to wear. Your captivating beauty is such that it tempts me every hour of every day, all day, every day, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. “

Eva gaped at him in surprise. A pink blush crept on her cheeks, listening to his words

Stephen held her chin and make her look at him

"Despite this, if you are seeking a compliment, I would like to mention that I have a unique way of complimenting my wife that I prefer to use.”

Just as Eva was processing his words, he moved and was now hovering over her. As Eva gaped at him with surprise, Stephen didn’t hesitate to pull her in for a passionate kiss.

Chapter 59: New beginning

Eva responded to the kiss with the same intensity of passion as her husband. As Stephen pressed his lips against hers, he felt her response and couldn’t help but smile.

After a passionate kiss, Stephen was the first one to break this kiss, and he told Eva

“I want to compliment you more, but I fear it may keep you up tonight, and we have a crucial day ahead tomorrow, so let’s save it for another time. So it’s a wonderful night for now.

Stating that Stephen kissed her forehead and slept, pulling her in his arms, Eva touched her swollen lips to believe what had happened now was not a dream. Despite her denials, she slept holding onto him, finding solace and safety in his embrace, like she had never felt before.

The loud sound of the alarm startled Eva the next morning, and she got up with a jerk. She couldn’t remember setting the alarm the night before.

While observing the area, she caught sight of Stephen’s closet and witnessed him emerging from it, donning his formal clothing.

“Good morning, love .“

“Hmm, “Eva stated, rubbing her eyes, trying to open them completely

“Come on now, get ready and reach for breakfast. “

“Isn’t it too early?”

Stephen chuckled and told her,

“For you it is, but I have no other option than to disturb your beauty sleep, as we have to do a lot of work today. I’ll be waiting for you downstairs, ok?

Declaring this, Stephen left the room, and Eva entered the washroom with a sulking face.

After finishing her morning routine, Eva entered the dining room, where she spotted the other family members already settled at the dining table having their breakfast

Eva greeted others and got settled on her seat, which was beside Stephen. She served her plate while having her food. She noticed Steve was holding an ice pack and rubbing it on his head

“God, what happened to you? Steve?”

“Nothing to be worried about. He got too drunk last night and is now suffering from a hangover. I don’t understand what the need was to get drunk like this, at least when we are the host of the party too, “Rose replied in irritation

"Mom, please, at least you spare me and it did not intend for me to drink much but two ladies were bent on making me depressed so I just drank more than I should have .“

“Whom are you talking about?”

Eva bit her lips and replied, “I think he is talking about me and Samantha. But trust me, mom, we were just pulling his leg. Sorry, Steve, if my words hurt you.”

Steve raised an eyebrow at her. “It's ok, leave Sam. she is a declared psychopath but at least you didn’t mean what you said, “
