Chapter 2363
Colton grabbed her hand. “Freyja, you…‘
“So, I’ve made up my mind.” Freyja ripped off his tie, disheveling his collar. As she approached him, she said, “I’ll make myself stand as close to you as possible. It doesn’t matter if I can’t reach your height. At the very least, I have to show everyone that I’m not useless.
without you.”
Initially, Colton thought she was going to say something like she wanted to leave again. He did not expect something like that from her, and he was stunned for a moment.
After a while, he grabbed her into his arms. The neon lights outside the window had cast a shadow over them. “When are you going back?”
Freyja coiled her arms around his neck and answered, “Tomorrow afternoon, so…”
Colton pinned her to the window and kissed her. She took off his jacket and dropped it on the floor. Dewdrops dotted the window, mottling the light that poured in from the outside streetlamps. In the dim light, under the cover of darkness, two figures were engaged in the most taboo of acts.
Then, the crying of Charm wafted into their ears from the room next door.
Freyja buried her face into his shoulder and chuckled hoarsely. “Your daughter is crying.”
Colton was caught between tears and laughter. He kissed her forehead and said, “I’m sure that kid is doing it on purpose. I must punish her for ruining such a good time.”
Colton picked up the shirt on the floor and headed to the room next door. Charm had kicked her quilt away and had cried herself hoarse. He massaged his nose and picked Charm up from her crib. There was no way he was going to get angry at her.
He said, “Alright, alright, stop crying. You know how hard it’s for your parents to have some private time for themselves, how can you ruin it? You must be doing it on purpose, right?”
Soon, Charm stopped crying and started mumbling something that he could not understand.
Colton patted her back gently and said matter–of–factly, “Okay, I’ll forgive you. No, you don’t need to apologize. I won’t spank you.
Freyja was standing at the door and chuckled. “I didn’t know that you could understand baby language.”
She walked up to them and took Charm away from Colton. “Are you hungry, Charm? Let me get you some milk downstairs.”
They switched on the light in the living room. Freyja was holding Charm with one hand while pouring milk powder into a bottle with her other hand. After the water boiled, she poured the water into the bottle and capped the bottle. After that, she put the bottle into a bowl of cool water to cool down the milk.
She was the one who took care of Deedee in the past, so she was very familiar with all these.
Crossing his arms in front of his chest, Colton leaned on the table and looked at them. The people in front of him were his wife and daughter. They were the ones who made this place feel like home, and he was not against something like this.
After the milk had cooled down, she gave the bottle to Charm. Charm then began to drink the milk quietly.
Colton hugged them from the back and rested his chin on Freyja’s shoulder. “Freyja, let’s go get a marriage certificate.”
They already had a daughter, so they just needed to get a certificate.
Freyja turned her head around and said, “You’ve got to wait for me to return.”
Colton frowned. “Seriously?”
She smiled. “Yes, I’m serious. I want you to wait for me.”
Colton was rendered speechless. There was no way. He could only wait for her. After all, she was his woman now. Both of them had a daughter, so there was no way she would run away from him.
The next day, Colton sent Freyja to the airport.
After taking her suitcase, she walked forward and stopped midway. She turned around and looked at Colton, who was standing in front of the car.
She went back to him and threw herself into his arms.
Colton was stunned for a moment but still coiled his arms around her. After a short while, Freyja looked at him and said, “Remember to take care of our daughter and Deedee. Don’t forget to… miss me too.”
After Freyja finished speaking, she pulled herself away from his arms and entered the airport.
