Chapter 991: Chapter 971: So You Like Stripping Clothes, Huh?

But he liked it!

"So, you like stripping clothes off, huh?"

Roy Thompson’s smile was willful, laced with a thick aura of mischief, "As long as you like it, your husband will naturally carry it out unconditionally!"

Bella Gordon: "..."

She’d only meant to tease him a little, but unexpectedly she gave the man an enormous opportunity to strip off her clothes in all propriety. As soon as he finished speaking, his hands began to fumble with the clothes basket again. However, these buttons...

They were already difficult to undo, and now, after being soaked in the bathtub, they were even harder to tackle. After several attempts without success, Roy Thompson was utterly frustrated. He reached out, intending to tear open the phoenix robe. He wanted to share the bathtub with his beloved on their wedding night. If a man’s body could withstand that without reacting, that would be abnormal!

"Roy Thompson, you dare to tear my clothes, just try it!"

Bella Gordon, seeing the man’s gesture, knew what he was about to do, "If you dare to tear it, not only will you not get the bridal chamber tonight, but not even a ’room hole’. You’ll sleep on the sofa, behave yourself!"

This was her phoenix robe, designed by the Orchid Kingdom’s court’s imperial designer, the world’s top artisanal designer, a classic phoenix robe handcrafted as the designer’s crowning work, meaning it would become a unique treasure in the world.

Just this phoenix robe, not to mention it was adorned all over with 1,080 top-grade rubies. Even the cufflinks and buttoms were made of top-grade emerald jade. There were countless other auxiliary gems, and it was apparent that this wedding dress was beyond priceless—it was a treasure without equal.

She planned to pass it on to her daughter as a dowry someday, so that the daughters of the Gordon family could continue the tradition to thousands of families!

"Then I won’t tear it!"

Faced with such a serious threat from his wife, Roy Thompson naturally stopped his hands and started to negotiate, "Then I’ll use scissors to remove the buttons, and later, I’ll sew them back on by hand, that should be okay, right?"

The imperial court’s phoenix buttons designed for the Orchid Kingdom were notoriously tricky to undo. Undoing the buttons of a phoenix robe during the wedding night is an important part of the bedroom festivities, a test of the man’s willpower. On the wedding night, numerous men of the Orchid Kingdom had gone crazy trying to undo them!

He had thought he was an exception, but after trying for so long, he still lost to the designer. So, he simply changed tactics!

But no sooner had he proposed the compromise than the woman offered no response. She just stared at him with a seemingly amused look in her eyes, which creeped him out a little. His hand, which was about to grab the scissors and undo the buttons, was stubbornly frozen midair, afraid to make the next move.

"Weren’t you going to remove the buttons? Why not start?"

"Wife, do you agree?"

His voice should have been excited, but when it burst from Roy Thompson’s throat, it was tinged with an anxious trepidation.

"What do you think?"

Bella Gordon watched him with a smile that was not quite a smile, seeing him unsure of her true intention, simply guessing. She paused before continuing, "Go ahead and remove them. I was planning to keep this phoenix robe to give to our daughter as her dowry so that she could pass it down through the generations. If you remove them, I just won’t have a daughter for you, that’s all!"

Roy Thompson: "..."

Why did he so feel like banging his head against the wall? She knew he wanted a daughter most, and yet she kept saying she wouldn’t have one for him. Just that sentence was enough to arouse him and then deflate him again!

"Cough cough... cough cough cough..." Roy Thompson coughed and coughed until he calmed his riotous blood, "Wife, I won’t remove them, I’ll patiently undo the buttons, please don’t refuse to have a daughter for me. You know that having a beautiful and pretty daughter just like you is my ultimate dream!"

They say a daughter is her father’s little cotton jacket, oh, a father’s favoritism for his daughter is the nature of all men, and Roy Thompson was no exception.

Seeing that Bella Gordon had not spoken, he said, "Wife, don’t be angry, I promise not to dismantle the phoenix robe. If worst comes to worst and I can’t undo it, then I simply won’t proceed to the bridal chamber tonight!"

Bella Gordon: "..."

Her man was indeed incredibly principled—a single button on the clothes could stop him from entering the bridal chamber!

What should she say?

Before she had time to think of what to say, the man decisively ceased working; his warm lips covered the woman’s directly, and the familiar scent of the man spread within her mouth.

The scorching kiss kept intensifying, the temperature of her body, pinned down by the man, climbed continuously, their drenched clothes clinging tightly to their bodies. Even though their garments were weighty, the man’s reaction when he pressed down on her was still unmistakably felt by Bella Gordon.

The obvious heat pressing against her lower body made it impossible for her to ignore, and looking at the beads of sweat on the man’s forehead and the throbbing veins, it was clear how painful his endurance was. Bella Gordon didn’t know if the man was torturing himself or her!

Watching her beloved husband suffer on their wedding night, no woman could bear it. In the end, Bella Gordon’s heart softened!

"After all this, you still say you could just not enter the bridal chamber?" Bella Gordon, gasping for air, poked the man’s forehead with her finger. "Can you really do that?"

The man almost instinctively replied without thinking, "As long as my wife commands, even if it means bleeding out, I can stay away from the bridal chamber!"

Bella Gordon: "..."

His mouth was really sweeter than her daddy’s!

Oh, maybe not. If it were her daddy, he would directly say, "If we don’t enter the bridal chamber, I’ll bleed out. Would you really let me die?"

Obviously, it seemed like her daddy doted on her mommy immensely, but in truth, her daddy was absolutely sure of her mommy’s love for him. Indeed, all the world’s unconditional love exists because of the belief that the other person loves you just as much!

And she was one of them!

"All right, get off me!" Bella Gordon took a deep look at the man’s face, which showed ultimate restraint, and spoke helplessly, "If you keep this up, I guarantee you’ll be the first man in history to bleed out on your wedding night!"

Roy Thompson: "..."

Wedding night? Bleed out?

And it’s him, Roy Thompson?

Roy Thompson’s brain promptly snapped back to reality!

The thought of such melodramatic scenarios, which wouldn’t even be aired in eight o’clock TV series nowadays, happening to him made Roy Thompson decisively get up. Fooling around was pointless. Although he eagerly wanted to, he had sworn that day to cherish his wife for a lifetime. If his wife had any objections, then no matter what, he had to endure!

What Roy Thompson hadn’t anticipated was that as soon as he got up and left the woman’s body, her actions directly stimulated him.

Roy Thompson stared at her in disbelief, his eyes going wide. Bella Gordon had actually sat up from the bathtub and was carefully undoing the buttons on her phoenix robe. If she was already undressing herself, wasn’t the implication for what came next crystal clear?
