C8 Power Outage

The Gladwin Family Home suddenly became pitch black. The eyes of anyone in the house could not see anything, there was only pitch black darkness.

Galdwin's voice immediately surprised Ed Shane, who was so close to Ivy. Ed Shane immediately moved away from the woman's body.

Visible in about three meters from where Ed Shane and Ivy were, a black silhouette of a human with a build very similar to Gladwin's.

Indeed, what Ed Shane and Ivh saw was true, he was Galdwin who had said to Ed Shane to turn on the light switch that went out.

"Y--yes, Dad." Ed Shane said, quickly getting up from his chair.

His heart was beating fast, in his little man's heart he hoped that Gladwin would not see what had just happened between him and Ivy.

It's possible that not only Lilyana, but also Gladwin suspects that her daughter-in-law is having an affair. Ed Shane, who was still dissatisfied with what he did, didn't want this to happen.

The man walked quickly out of the house, flipped the light switch and then their house became bright again like a few minutes before.

"Are you going to stay?" asked Gladwin who was now sitting on one of the chairs in the living room of his house.

Ivy nodded her head and smiled. "Yes."

"Oh, you two should stay the night. You know, Lucy has stayed here many times before. She always has that room." Gladwin pointed to a room directly adjacent to the living room. The man then resumed his sentence. "For me, Lucy is not just Lily's best friend, but like my own daughter."

Ivy again could only nod her head and smile in response to Gladwin's words. The woman felt very nervous.

No sooner had the lights come back on and Gladwin was talking to Ivy than Ed Shane came back into the house.

As Ed Shane's footsteps drew closer to the living room, Gladwin's sharp gaze pierced Ed Shane's heart.

The situation was getting really awkward. Ed Shane, who had always hoped that Gladwin didn't see what he was doing with Ivy, this time felt that Gladwin was watching.

Galdwin's position, who was also sitting in the living room and leaving no other empty chairs, forced Ed Shane to sit on the long sofa and was directly next to Ivy. This made the situation even more awkward and awkward.

"Where are Lucy and Lily, Ed?" asked Gladwin, different from the other two people, the man in his forties seemed quite relaxed.

"Lily was dropping Lucy off as she was cleaning up, Dad." Ed Shane said soberly.

After a few minutes passed, finally both Lucy and Ivy had finished cleaning themselves. Lucy and Ivy slept in the guest room directly adjacent to the living room while Lily slept in her bedroom with Ed Shane as usual.

"Have you known Ivy before?" asked Lilyana when she and her husband had just entered the room, even Ed Shane was still closing their bedroom door.

"Why?" Instead of answering, Ed Shane asked as if he didn't hear what his wife said.

"Have you known Ivy before?" asked Lilyana repeating her question.

Ed Shane chuckled for a moment before answering his wife's question. "Haha, of course, Baby. Why do you ask like that?"

Lilyana's face was immediately irritated, her forehead scrunched up with pouty lips.

"She works at our restaurant." Ed Shane said casually again.

"Oh." Lilyana only muttered in response to her husband's words.

Ed Shane stepped on his feet, the man looked quite relaxed even though he was actually so scared.

"What's wrong with you, Lily?" asked Ed Shane after sitting down right next to Lilyana.

"No, I'm sleepy. I'm going to sleep." Lilyana immediately got up from the bed, pulled the covers and curled up.

"Darling." Ed Shane called in a soft voice.

Lilyana didn't mind him one bit. But slowly the woman felt a hand stroking her arm very gently.

None other than Ed Shane's doing. The man seemed to smile when Lilyana turned to him.

"What's wrong? I'm sleepy, I want to sleep." Lilyana said this time in a firmer tone.

"Huh, can't you accompany me for a bit?"

"No!" Lilyana answered firmly.

"Okay, good night, Honey."

Ed Shane then kissed his wife's forehead, a routine he always did before going to bed when he was at home.

***

All night Ed Shane could not sleep peacefully. The man continues to imagine Ivy who is now under the same roof as him.

An opportunity that is rare and not to be wasted. But on the other hand, Ed Shane also felt doubtful and afraid to do it.

[Ivy]

A message was sent by Ed Shane via a cellphone that was already in silent mode. In just a few seconds, you can see that the message sent by Ed Shane has been read by Ivy.

A smile broke out on the man's face when he saw that Ivy's messaging account was typing to reply to a message from him.

[What's wrong, Ed?]

[Are you not sleeping yet?]

[No, I can't sleep]

[Me too, Ivy. I keep thinking about you, your beautiful face, it feels like it's always on my mind]

[Hihi, why you can do it.]

[That's true, Ivy. By the way, is Lucy sleeping already?]

[I guess yeah.]

[That's good!]

[What is good about it?]

[I want to be with you, Ivy. I want to sleep with you.]

[Ed, are you crazy?]

[Yeah, I'm already crazy about you.]

[I'm afraid your wife or father-in-law will find out, Ed.]

[We can do it stealth.]

[Where?]

[Get out of your room, walk straight back and you will find a brown door. Come into that room and wait for me]

The message was only read by Ivy and not replied. Moments later, Ed Shane heard a door open.

His heart felt very happy this time, finally tonight he would be back accompanied by Ivy. It's a new sensation to be with Ivy in his own home.

For about five minutes, Ed Shane remained in the room, he moved slowly so that Lilyana would not notice his movements.

Several times Ed Shane moved his hand right in front of his wife's face, but Lilyana didn't budge in the slightest.

The woman was soundly asleep, a lucky night for Ed Shane.

The two men's footsteps crept towards the closed door of his room. Slowly he opened the door of the room and came out. As much as possible Ed Shane did not make the slightest sound when he left his room.

Ed Shane immediately headed to the room designated for household assistants, but for the time being the room was empty because there were no household assistants working in his house.

"Hi Ed." Ivy greeted the man shortly after the bedroom door opened.
