Tsk, some bachelors can be quite bitter! Bennett thought.

After resting for a while, Claudia finally felt better, and she let out a big sigh of relief. She no Longer needed to endure the embarrassment of going to the hospital for stuffing her face too much.

‘m feeling better now, Mr. Dreskin,” Claudia told Bennett.

Really? You don't feel bloated anymore?"

No, not anymore."

Bennett lowered his gaze, reached out, and touched his wife's abdomen. It was too Late when Claudia realized what Bennett was going to do, so she could only stare as he rubbed her stomach.

Through the thin fabric of her dress, she felt the warmth of his palm. Looking at her husband's hand on her belly, Claudia didn't know how to react. Her mind totally went blank.

Bennett withdrew his hand and remarked, "I think you're still a bit bloated."

Hearing his words, Claudia felt her face grow hot.

She looked at Bennett and said through gritted teeth, "No, I'm not!"

“Then what are you?"

“A person with a stomach, that's what!" Bennett was rendered speechless.

Bennett was rarely rendered speechless. He kept silent for a while before finally saying, "I'm sorry."

After a pause, he felt like his apology wasn't sincere enough, so he added, "I mean no offense. I think your belly is cute."

Claudia didn't know what to say.

"Well, this man's strong suit clearly isn't giving compliments," she muttered under her breath.

“Since you are feeling much better, go take a shower and get ready for bed. You should get some rest."

"Okay. Good night."

"Good night."

Claudia almost ran all the way to her bedroom. She wanted to cry at the thought of Bennett reaching out and touching her stomach.

Why couldn't he have touched other parts of her body?

Why did he touch her belly of all things?

She was speechless.

Claudia went to her room and shut the door behind her. Then, she took out her phone and called Aurora to complain, “Oh, my God. How ridiculous was he being? He actually asked what that is! Did he really have to do that? Didn't he have a flabby stomach?
