Chapter 17: Two conditions
Maya cried out and tried to support herself on his chest with both hands, but Dino pressed down on her, and she couldn’t hold on at all.
Dino, panting heavily, cupped Maya’s face and kissed her lips.
Her lips were soft and sticky, like a piece of softened glutinous rice cake. Dino kissed them desperately, not knowing what else to do.
After a while, Maya supported herself against him, turned her face away, and said in a panting tone, “Are you trying to suffocate me?”
Dino chuckled: “Sister, you have such a sweet tongue.”
“Fool.” Maya blushed and glared at him.
Dino felt a rush of emotion as he realized his hand rested on Maya’s chest.
Since Lele could fall asleep unpredictably, Maya prioritized her bath immediately after dinner. This routine allowed Lele to bathe and then sleep whenever she felt tired. Like most women preparing for sleep, Maya was not wearing a bra.
“Oh.” Maya let out a shy moan and grabbed Dino’s hand
“Dino, no.”
Dino’s mind went blank with excitement, and he leaned down to kiss Maya again.
Maya suddenly rolled over onto the bed, and Dino tried to pounce on her again, but Maya grabbed his hand and said breathlessly, “Dino, if you keep making trouble, I’ll really get angry.”
She didn’t seem to be joking, so Dino didn’t dare to press her further and said, “Sister, I really like you.”
“I understand,” Maya agreed.
“Your attempts to intimidate me are futile. My decision is contingent upon my mother’s consent. If she approves, I will agree; if she does not, I will refuse. You will have to wait for her arrival.”
She looked serious, and Dino knew she wasn’t a casual woman. Although he was burning with anger, he nodded and released Maya.
Maya got out of bed, straightened her clothes, and, seeing his somewhat dazed look, she felt a little sorry for him. She leaned over and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, then picked up the foot basin and walked away. At the door, she turned back and smiled, saying, “Get a good night’s sleep and don’t overthink things.”
Dino’s soul was once again captivated by her smile.
Old Lady Martha showed up two days later. Upon learning from Black Panther that Maya had contacted Old Lady Martha, Dino felt a flush of warmth and thought, “My sister truly cares about me.”
Old Lady Martha’s expression was not quite right; she looked at him sideways, her eyes like two cold knives.
During dinner that evening, Old Lady Martha said, “Dino, I know you like Maya. There’s nothing wrong with a man pursuing a woman, and I don’t object. However, I have two conditions.”
Her gaze was like a knife or a drill, piercing his heart. Dino was both happy and afraid. He stole a glance at Maya, whose face was as red as the sunset. Suddenly, he dared to look bravely at Old Lady Martha.
“Maya suffered a lot in the past, so she should enjoy some good fortune in the future.” Old Lady Martha raised her voice as she spoke.
“I’m not asking for millions. Simply deposit $100,000 into Maya’s savings account within the next two years. That’s all I require.”
“Mom,” Maya called out, her face pale.
Hundred thousand in two years, fifty thousand in one year, $4,000 a month. In the past, Kelo’s most profitable month was only $350-$400. How could Dino possibly make that much?
“Don’t speak.” Old Lady Martha glared at her, and Maya dared not speak again. She secretly glanced at Dino, her eyes reddening, filled with sorrow and guilt.
Dino’s face was also a little pale, but when he saw Maya’s gaze, a surge of anger rushed to his head, and he nodded without hesitation: “Okay.”
