Sean looked away as his eyes fell on Molly. He watched her silently and paid attention to
the look on her face.
Molly did not think much about this initially until they were about to enter the bathroom. After walking
into the bathroom, the space suddenly felt enclosed. There was no way for Molly to relax at that
moment, so she could only find a spot to continue walking in.
She was almost in Sean’s arms when all of a sudden, facing Sean’s collarbone. All she was breathing
in was his scent: a faint male cologne scent. It was calm and relaxing, which was
rather pleasant as well.
However, they were just too close to one another! Molly wanted to take a few steps back, but the
moment she made a move, her chin was slightly elevated, and her lips came into contact with Sean’s
collarbones. The sensation she felt on her lips was new to her. Sean’s eyes widened as Molly’s warm
breath lingered on his neck. It was like his collarbones were touched by a feather.
The both of them froze! Molly’s face was slightly flushed as she had never expected to kiss Sean’s
collarbones in such a strange situation! She was losing her mind! On top of that, Molly was the one
who inched closer to Sean. ‘He wouldn’t think I intentionally stole a kiss, would he?’ Suddenly, her head
was filled with thoughts. It went haywire, and she did not know how to face Sean.
Tony did not know about what happened between the two of them. He successfully helped Sean to the
bathtub as the warm water covered him up to his waist.
“Dr. May, why is your face so red?” Tony asked with concern as he saw Molly looking a little weird just
when he was about to thank her.
Molly quivered and explained immediately, “No, it’s from the heat. I have nothing to do here from now,
so I’ll be leaving! Also, don’t take a bath in your clothes.” Molly did not dare to look at Sean’s
expression at that moment, so she just left with her head held low right after she was done speaking.
Somehow, Sean found Molly running away a little funny.
When Molly got back, the warmth still lingered on her cheeks. She subconsciously touched her lips as
if she could feel an electric current and started staring into space.
Both Ben and Claudia were already asleep then.
Alex was waiting for her return in the living room. When he heard the commotion, he looked over and
saw his mother with a flushed face, so he asked curiously, “What’s wrong, Mommy?
ter
Are you sick? Why is your face so red?” Molly was startled by him as she retreated a few steps and
pressed her back on the door. She then lied and said, “It’s fine. I helped Uncle Sean prepare his bath,
so the heat got to me.” Alex did not doubt her and nodded. “Why are you so late, mommy? Is Uncle
Sean’s treatment going well?” he asked with concern. As soon as Sean was brought up, Molly was
taken back to the incident that happened back there. Her gaze wandered off, and she looked a little
guilty. “Of course, it’s going very well.” She was afraid that Alex would question her further, so she
quickly changed the subject and asked, “It’s late. Why aren’t you sleeping?” “I want to wait for mommy.
I left a light on for you, so you can feel like you’re coming home.” Alex looked like he was stating the
obvious. He could not help but yawn while he was speaking.
Molly saw it and walked up to him before carrying him in her arms. She kissed his cheeks hard, which
smelled like vanilla, and her heart was filled with wholesomeness. “My first baby is so very thoughtful!”
Alex smiled and wrapped his arms around his mother’s neck intimately. The mother-and-son then went
upstairs and took a rest after washing themselves.
