Carla was with Leila in her room, they played for a while and Leila teaches her how to read.
Unsurprisingly, Carla learned very quickly after hearing it once!
'My daughter is truly a genius!' She couldn't help felt proud.
Carla on the contrary just wanted to end this faster. She didn't want to learn the same thing over and over again. That was too annoying.
Lucy reminded her about her action, but Carla only nodded. It was simply annoying that you had to learn a basic thing that you learned for a whole life before in her past life and now.
She can thoroughly read! At least teach her the hard ones!
Leila didn't know what her daughter's thoughts behind Carla's sweet smile. She was overjoyed by her abilities and taught her more.
Carla pouted, her ears are starting to irritate, but couldn't be rude to her lovely mother. Hence, she pointed at the children's book on her shelf, "Pleashe read for me, mama."
Leila looked at the shelf and thought that Carla might want to learn more by listening to her while she read. She nodded, this was a good idea too.
She stood up and picked the 'Cinderella' book.
Carla stood beside her mother in her bed and listened well. She already knew about the story but wanted to hear her mother's voice.
This was better than her mother teaches her to read, this way, she doesn't need to speak or answer her and just silently listen.
Even though Carla did her best to socialized with people in this life, she was still an introvert who likes to be alone and doesn't need to talk to anyone. As she grew up in her past life, she rarely speaks unless she was mad or needs to answer.
Now, she was just lazy to speak. It was better to convey her words into action after all, action speaks louder than words.
Though, on weekends, her cousin would teach her to speak as she was still a toddler who couldn't speak properly. She had fun though, as long as it was only on weekend and not every day.
After Leila finished reading one book, she took another. After one book, to another, Carla who silently listening was now silently snoring.
Listening to her mother's voice was truly comfortable that she fell asleep.
Leila smiled and carried her like a princess to arrange her position in a comfortable way, then she slightly covered her with a blanket.
She kissed her on the forehead and the cheeks, "Goodnight, my lovely daughter," She turned on the lampshade and turned off the room light as she went out.
Leila silently went out of her daughter's room. While she was walking in the hallway, she grips the voice connector that she was holding connected to the voice connector at Carla's room.
This way, even though her daughter slept in another room, she would know if something happens.
Few guards patrolling outside at night, maids inside the house, and a few guards watching the CCTV. She was a little relieved knowing that but couldn't let her guard down.
For some reason, she wanted to protect her daughter from unknown reasons. Was it a maternal instinct?
Just as she was about to reach their room, she saw her husband walking towards the room too.
Leila tilted her head and asked, "Hmm? Why your face so red? Are you sick?" When they met in front of the door, she touched his forehead with worries.
Claude blinked for a moment and smiled bitterly, "Probably from coldness outside."
He doesn't know but he felt a little guilty, he also couldn't tell his wife that his face was red was because he was laughing for an hour with the accompany of Annalisa.
He didn't understand himself as to why he couldn't bring himself to say it.
"Geez, you should be careful. Let's go inside, I'll prepare a warm bath for you." Leila touched his face and fixed his breezy hair.
Claude was affected by her warm and he kissed her on the lips. This kind of wife what he certainly wanted. Caring and beautiful. Not only that, so intelligent that can bring his company from scratch to an elite company.
For four years, the success of their company became bigger and bigger, and before their first daughter was born, they finally bought a mansion that he dreamt about before. A mansion cost a hundred million.
'Ahh, my life was really good. And it was thanks to my wife. I'm glad I chose her.' Claude thought this and couldn't help give a smile. He opened the door for her wife and himself.
When they got in, Leila told him to wait and went to the bathroom and prepared his bath. After putting the warm water in the tub, she went to look for his clothes. She bent down and opened the drawer 2nd row from below.
As she was about to close the drawer, Claude hugged her waist, and Leila was stunned. She felt something hard and hot on her butt, she closed the drawer and stood up.
"D-dear?" Leila's cheeks flushed from red and she gulped.
Claude put his head on her shoulder and face her neck, he whispered, "Why don't you join me take a short bath? It won't take long..."
Leila wet her lips and looked at the time, it was still early so she agreed.
Claude brought her in the bathroom and they took a 'short bath'.
He didn't know but for some reason, after taking a walk and chatted with Anna, he felt something in his belly. He thought it must be because of the cold breeze at night.
When he went in and saw his wife being so warm, his eyes felt fiery. And then, seeing her wife doing unintentionally a sexy pose in front of him while she took extra clothes, his body moved on his own and hugged her from behind.
He didn't understand where it started but only thought his desires need to put out by someone else. Coincidentally, his wife agreed to distinguish his fire.
