Gaius shook his head immediately, "Please don't. Just… please don't report this to Clarke, I beg you! He will assume the wrong thing!"
Reed only had a grin on his face, "Ah, does that mean you have a different idea of what we did just now?"
Gaius froze on the spot. He felt like he had been cornered by Reed to admit that he was feeling a forbidden pleasure while Reed was just trying to take care of him.
"N—No, I just don't want any conflict," Gaius denied. "Clarke has been working hard for our family, and I don't want him to hear something that might create a big misunderstanding. Please don't say anything."
"Mm~ Sure then, of course, I don't want to ruin the beautiful marriage between my long-lost brother and his much-beloved wife," Reed said. "I just want a family after all."
Gaius was relieved that Reed finally agreed with his request. He got up from the hot tub, feeling that staying in that hot tub for too long might make everything worse.
