A wedding night Love Affair With The Billionaire
Chapter 35 The Traces of a Lovely Night

Her kiss was raw, but it was more than enough to drive him crazy.

That night, the room fell into chaos.

When Tanner woke up, the sky was already bright, and Eliza was still asleep in his arms.

They had made love the whole night, and there were traces of his passion on her delicate skin. The bluish-purple bruises were all carefully crafted by him. The two of them were naked under the quilts, and he could feel every part of her body...

Mischievous kisses fell between her lips and neck, and his big hands started stroking her waist. After that, he felt something growing again...

Eliza woke up under his deliberate teasing. She felt the heat of his palms and his tender kisses. Her whole body was sore. She thought of what had happened the night before, and she felt a little shy. She dared not look at him.

Eliza did not open her eyes, but the abnormal flush on her cheeks had betrayed her. Tanner knew that she was awake. This was not the first time they were together, but she was still shy.

He did not expose her, he just increased the strength of his palms as he started to move his big hands on her body. Then, he kissed her even more heavily.

Eliza did not open her eyes, but she could feel the changes in his body. She looked at his posture. He wanted to do it again, and she could no longer pretend anymore. She slowly opened her eyes, trying to look as if she had just woken up. Unexpectedly, she looked into a pair of gentle deep eyes with a smile that could not be dissipated.

It was as if they had a tacit understanding. He stopped when she opened her eyes. When their eyes met, Eliza's heart skipped a beat. She was so shy that she instantly buried her head in the quilt. He did not say anything either. He only held her tighter.

For the next few days, Tanner would still occasionally be tough on her, but Eliza knew that it was all out of concern for her. For example, when she was having too much fun and did not notice the cars on the road, or when other people looked at her a few times...

For Eliza, this honeymoon trip made her open her eyes to a brand new Tanner. For Tanner, after carefully taking care of Eliza, he was able to make her open up her heart and rely on him.

The two of them slowly learned to accept each other's good and bad on that foreign island.

As time went by, Eliza learned to enjoy the delicious food found on Ball Island. A month's vacation passed quietly. Then, it was time for them to go back home.

When they first arrived at Ball Island, the distance between the two of them was so huge, and Eliza rejected everything Tanner did. But now, as they departed the island, she took the initiative to hold his hand and stood beside him, smiling brightly.

That night, Tanner ordered Aunt Bell to move his clothes to Eliza's bedroom and move the study room next to hers. He also ordered people to break down the walls of the two rooms the next day. After they washed themselves up after the long trip, they were exhausted. They fell asleep in each other's arms.

After their trip to Ball Island ended, life started to go back to normal. Tanner had a month's worth of work to attend to, and Eliza needed to incorporate the inspirations from the trip into her design. Even though they had their own businesses, they would still think of each other from time to time when they were working. Life was harmoniously beautiful.

However, all the happiness disappeared after Raelyn appeared.

Eliza's cell phone rang. Suddenly, she received a phone call from her mother, Penelope, anxiously asking her to go home. Penelope did not explain why either.

She thought that something had happened at home, so Eliza took a day off and drove frantically to the Stone family home, a place she had not visited for a long time.

When she entered the room, she immediately saw Raelyn, who was supposed to be recuperating overseas.

The servants of the Stone family were preparing a meal. Marco and her mother were talking about something with Raelyn.

Seeing her coming, Raelyn smiled softly. "Eliza, you are back! I heard from Mom that you haven't been home for a long time. I missed you so much while I was abroad, so I asked her to call you back for a mea together. I don't think I've disturbed your work, right?"

When she saw her, Eliza could not speak at all. It was as if she was immobilized.

Marco looked at her, his eyes full of loathing. Originally, he wanted his daughter to marry into the Francis family to salvage the company's financial crisis. However, she simply divorced Michael as she wished. Fortunately, the Francis family was in trouble and he made a lot of money from it, so his company began to run normally.

When he thought of how Tanner was actually willing to stand up for her, Marco's gaze grew more and more vicious. Tanner was his biological daughter's lover, and he did not know if the words of the other party were real or not. If that was the case, he really needed to take action earlier. It would be best to get rid of this trouble earlier.

When Penelope saw her standing there in a daze, she desperately threw unspeaking glances at her. When Eliza looked at her mother, she started to come back to her senses.

"Mmm. It was about time for me to come home for a visit too." Because of her guilty conscience, Eliza's voice was a little low.

At that moment, the dishes were already served. Raelyn took the initiative to ask Eliza to sit down.

"Eliza, where have you been staying these days? How have you been? Did anyone bully you?" Raelyn sat beside her, and she asked with sisterly concern.

Eliza felt a chill run down her spine, and her heart started pounding nervously. All along, she had been with Tanner. It did not matter if they had a quarrel or if they were being sweet together, they had been practically joined at the hip. In truth, she was already his wife. She had even forgotten about the relationship between Tanner and her sister...

Eliza's eyes looked away. "Well, I... I have been staying with Gracelynn. There are too many things to do in the company recently, so I didn't come back."

After she answered, Marco snorted. "Hmph, I think that you just didn't have the guts to come home. You have humiliated the Stone family so much with your nonsense!"

"Dad, don't talk about her like that. Maybe Eliza was really framed," Raelyn spoke up for her in a soft voice. "Eliza, I heard about your situation from Mom. You... Are you okay? You and Tanner..."

"I... I have nothing to do with him. Tanner was there at that time, and he just happened to help me." Eliza pretended to be calm. Then she looked at Raelyn and smiled.

"Dad, see. Nothing happened. Don't worry." Raelyn smiled softly.

It was the most difficult meal Eliza had ever had to swallow in her life. She could not stay there any longer, so she hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls and ran away. The excuse she gave was that she had company affairs to attend to.

As she drove towards the company, she belatedly remembered that she had asked for a day's leave. So she made a turn and returned to the Deleon family's villa.

Tanner was still at the company, he had not arrived home yet. Eliza's heart was in turmoil. She did not know how to tell Tanner that her sister was back... In the evening, Tanner returned.

During dinner, Eliza had something on her mind. When Tanner spoke to her, she responded indifferently.

"How was your work today?" Tanner could tell that something was not right with her, so he asked, thinking it was something work-related that was bothering her.

Eliza saw the concern in his eyes. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't. She could only shake her head.

Tanner could tell that something was going on in her heart. He gazed at her, and his gaze gradually turned sharp.

Eliza could not bear it any longer. She pursed her lips and clenched her fists. Eventually, she said, "My sister has returned. She..." Before she could finish her sentence, she paused.

"What happened?" He spoke indifferently.

On second thought, he seemed to have read her mind. He thought that she still minded the rumors about Raelyn and him. He comforted her and said, "Great, we'll use this opportunity to let them know about our relationship." He would use this chance to let the world know who he liked too.

Eliza looked at him anxiously. "No, you can't!"

"Why not? This way, we could announce our marriage to the public too." Tanner's gaze was burning hot as he waited for her reply.

"Can we hide this from her? My sister likes you very much. I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it..." Eliza looked at him carefully to see his attitude toward this matter.

"Are you that unwilling to admit to the public that we are married?" His eyes were as dark as ink. At that moment, they gradually turned cold.

Eliza looked at him blankly. It had been a long time since she had seen him like that.

"I..." Eliza was so shocked that she could not speak. Being stared at like that, she felt a little depressed. Her eyes turned a little red, and her voice choked with sobs.

She did not know what to do. Her older sister was so good to her. When she came back from abroad, the first thing she did was ask about how she was doing and wanted to have a meal together. However, Eliza had fallen in love with Tanner...

Tanner looked at her pitiful appearance and his voice softened as he coaxed her, "Eliza, listen to me. If you are with me, you don't have to care about anyone else. There's nothing between me and her anyway."

Eliza could not speak at all. She could only shake her head desperately! She couldn't! She absolutely couldn't!

Tanner's eyes gradually showed disappointment. She cared about Raelyn's feelings, but what about him?

He had already planned it well. First, he would make it clear to Raelyn. After Eliza got pregnant, he would tell their family. His grandmother took bloodlines seriously. At that time, no matter how his mother objected, for the sake of Grandmother, she would always agree.

He was afraid that he would make her feel aggrieved by announcing it too early. Tanner had planned this for a long time, but he did not expect Eliza to be the first to object.

However, when he looked at her, he was so angry that he did not know how to react. He put down the silverware in his hand, went out, and drove to the company. They both needed time to calm down. Eliza watched him get up. By the time she reacted, he had already driven away. She tried her best to hold back the tears in her eyes from falling. She numbly ate the food on her plate...

It was late at night. Eliza was lying on the bed. She could not fall asleep, and Tanner did not come home. She knew that her words made him sad, and she did not want it to happen too. This was their first quarrel since they had come back.

Her sister and him... She could not take into account everyone's emotions. Furthermore, she had originally felt sorry for her sister in this matter. She could not hurt her sister and could only choose to let Tanner conceal it from her...

However, she did not think that this would also disappoint him. Her attitude seemed to deny the hard-earned relationship between them...☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
