Chapter 48 
“Shall we sleep together tonight?” Ella quickly got into bed and parted the space beside her. 
She felt like one of those women from TV dramas, tossing her hair and inviting the innocent guy 
ΠΙΟ 
bed. 
。 
Jaden guessed Devin’s intentions right, but he hadn’t figured out what he should do next. 
He seemed to be setting himself up for trouble 
Jaden wasn’t keen on that sort of thing, but he was a normal guy after all, spending every day and night with a woman, now lying in the same bed…. 

Besides, Ella was extraordinarily beautiful, exceptionally charming 
If he didn’t have those thoughts, he’d think something was wrong with him and consider seeing a urologist. 
He used to be quite resistant to having sex with Ella, but now, he was starting to look forward to it 
But she was 
was pregnant! 
What if something went wrong at a time like this and she got hurt? 
“I need to take a bath before sleeping.” Jaden said. 
Ella said. “Yes, you like to keep cleant You go first” 
She generously gave up the bathroom for him to go first. 
Ella washed her hair, blow–dried it, and even styled it. 
There was a lingering scent of body wash on her. She changed into a red silk nightgown that was rather alluring. 
Ella was meticulous down to every strand of hair and fingernail! 
When she came out eagerly, she found that Jaden had already been adeep. 
She stood there dumbfounded for a good three seconds. 
Why was making out with him so difficult! 
She got into bed feeling a bit out of sorts and starting to fidget 
Jaden was awakened by her movements and immediately grabbed her hand. 
Jaden asked, “Not sleeping? Im tired. We have to get up early tomorrow to visit relatives.” 
Ella said. “Um. Men and women sleeping in the same bed usually need to do something.” 
“Do something!” Jaden said” 
She could feel his innocence. 
How could she say such a thing? She couldn’t just say she wanted to make out with him, right! 
“Keep going“” he said. 
The courage she had just mistered up vanished in an instant 
Forget it. Let nature take its course with the child. Ella was feeling embarrassed now. 
She shrunk back into the covers, her voice mullled as she said, “Let’s just sleep.” 
Ella lamented inwardly. She wouldn’t take the initiative again. 
Once she thought it through, she didn’t care that there was someone else in bed. Ella turned over and fell asleep. 
Her sleeping posture was not lady–like 
Ella tossed and turned, her legs propped up on him, like an octopus, clawing as jaden. 
Her line face was buried in his neck, the hot breath she exhaled was like light feathers, tickling his heart.

Chapter 48 
She smelled so good! It was not the strong fragrance of perfume, but the scent of body wash, shampoo, and her own faint scent. 
She had slim arms and legs but was well–proportioned and curvy in the right places. 
At this moment, holding onto his arm, the soft touch pressing against Jaden made his mind go blank. 
Throughout the night. Jaden had tried hard to suppress his desire. 
If this went on, he’d go crazy! 
He used to be 
quite repelled by Ella, so why was he now thinking so much about getting closer to her 
It must be because he was a normal guy with needs. Actually, any woman would do, not just Ella! 
It seemed that he needed Hank to arrange a woman for him. 
That night, Jaden thought aimlessly until he finally got through it. 
Ella slept deeply, without any dreams. When she woke up, she found that Jaden was still asleep, and she didn’t disturb him, quietly getting out of 

bed. 
By the time he woke up, she had washed up 
Tup. 
They left the room together and wished Devin a Happy New Year. 
The Jaden said, “Grandpa, and there’s a gift for you. A coffee pot made by your favorite master! 
“Oh, you’re thoughtful. I have no other hobbies. I just love drinking coffee, especially fond of coffee sets, Devin said. 
Jaden felt uncomfortable. It felt like he was giving a gift to Devin for Harry and felt frustrated. 
“Harel, Happy New Year!” Ella said. 
Hazel was happy and gave Ella a gift. 
Then Ella started to deliver gifts. 
She handed Jaden some cash with a smile and said, “Take this with you when you go out in the future. You can use it to buy whatever you like, toys, food, anything Also, here’s a spare card of mine. Feel free to use it. The password is your birthday, so keep it to yourself. I’ve also bought you a piggy bank to save what you don’t spend.” 
She thought Jaden had never received money as a gift before, so she specially gave him a tor 
She guessed right, Jaden hadn’t received cash since his mother passed away. 
During this New Year’s reunion, he always felt sad and lonely while others were happy. 
He looked down at the gift, his thoughts in turmoil 
Despite the cold weather, his heart felt warm. 
“You’ve never had a snowball fight, right? Let’s go play and build a snowman! And later, we’ll set off fireworks. Come on!” Ella said. 
Excited, she pulled Jaden into the yard and immediately threw a snowball at his face. 
⠀⠀ “Come on, let’s play!” Ella said. 
Right now, Ella looked like a child, her smile bright and radiant 
Jaden initially felt a bit awkward, but gradually, a deep–seated longing within him began to awaken. 
He recalled the past, always hiding at the door, enviously watching Rose and Simon have snowball fights. 
Simon would spend his New Year’s money on the latest toys, making his peers look at him with envy. And Jaden had nothing. 
He would rush through New Year’s Eve dinner and retreat to his room. 
Because they were a real family of three, he felt like an outsider, staying longer would only invite annoyance. 
But now, it was completely different 
He could feel that Ella truly considered him family and wanted to make up for his past.

Chapter 48 
With these thoughts, Jaden gradually felt better and then hit Ella with a huge snowball, causing her nose to bleed. 
“Ouch… it hurts, Ella said. She clutched her nose, tears welling up in her eyes. 
Jaden froze. Wasn’t this how they played snowball fights 
He hadn’t even used the biggest snowball yet. 
“Sorry… 
Ims 
I’ll use a smaller one next time. Does it hurt a lot! Do you want to punch me in the novel” Jaden said. 
He was clearly flustered, trying to make amends. He didn’t even know where to put his hands. 
Ella was initially angry, but seeing him like this, she couldn’t stay mad. 
She angrily took a handful of snow and put it down his back. 
The snow melted instantly, and the cold water seeped in 
Jaden didn’t dare to dodge, letting her do as she pleased. 
“It’s fine. It’s not a big deal. Let’s continue!” Ella said. 
She stuffed a tissue up her nose, looking somewhat comical. 
From then on. Jaden clearly held back, often throwing small snowballs at her clothes 
Ella didn’t care if he was holding back. She was just short of throwing ice shards at him! Devin at in his wheelchair, watching the two play in the yard, with a kind smile on his face. 
“Look at them, such a perfect match, Devin said.
