Her teasing words made me blush—I pulled her into my arms.
Claire laughed softly, told the other staff at the clinic she was leaving early to rest, and we headed home.
Before we left, she transferred more money to Ryan and told him to enroll in driving school and get his driver’s license—she’d buy him a car afterward.
Ryan was over the moon, swearing loyalty to Claire, saying he’d follow her orders for life.
Claire just waved it off and reminded him,
“Don’t forget what I said—starting tomorrow, we’ll begin your perfect dental implants. Don’t be late.”
“Don’t worry, sis-in-law! I won’t be late. I’ll head out now—won’t interrupt your couple time!”
Ryan grinned mischievously, winking at us knowingly.
Claire and I left work early and went home. On the way, we were still discussing what to have for dinner.
But the moment we stepped inside, it was like Claire transformed—she took off her glasses as if removing a seal and turned into a ravenous tigress.
I was both happy and exhausted, starving as I tangled with Claire until midnight, using up every ounce of strength. My back and waist ached so badly I could barely move.
