Bittersweet Arrangements : A Sugar Dady Affair

“Jeremy, you’re being noisy!” Vanessa reprimanded upon hearing Jeremy’s loud exclamation.

“Honey, did you hear what El just said?” Jeremy said, now in a panic while sitting. It was like a thunderbolt struck his room when those words freely rolled off Elena’s lips.

“Hmmmm,” Vanessa mumbled, indifferent.

“Honey, El slept with Devan. Can’t you hear what she said!” Jeremy frustratedly exclaimed, as his wife remained unmoved, while Elena, who was currently sleeping between them, just stared at Jeremy in confusion.

“Listen, Jeremy, just let it be!” Vanessa responded in a hoarse voice. “Stop making noise! Mommy’s tired. If you want to talk, go outside!” Vanessa’s casual words successfully left Jeremy puzzled. He couldn’t believe Vanessa acted so indifferent upon hearing that their daughter slept with Devan, their close friend.

“Honey?” Jeremy spoke again, only to irritate Vanessa. His wife then got up from the bed, taking a pillow to the sofa. Vanessa immediately lay down on the sofa and closed her eyes, ignoring whatever Jeremy and Elena would do. Daddy and daughter, both overly dramatic and exaggerated every time they responded to something.

“Daddy is noisy. That’s why Mommy’s sulking,” Elena said, still unaware that all of this happened because of her actions.

Jeremy fell silent, gazing at Vanessa’s back, which moved rhythmically, a sign that his wife was indeed asleep. Then Jeremy shifted his gaze to Elena, scrutinizing her.

“What were you doing in Devan’s room?” Jeremy asked, his previous drowsiness now completely gone.

“Dad, seriously, I said I want to sleep, so let me sleep. Why does it matter, Dad?” Elena replied, annoyed, looking at Jeremy with a playful smile, recalling how she sneaked into Devan’s room.

“So, at that time, I couldn’t sleep, so in the middle of the night, I moved to Devan’s room. Fortunately, Devan didn’t know,” Elena honestly admitted, giggling.

“Oh my God, El, you can’t do that. Be careful if you do it again. It’s okay with Daddy, Ivand, or Viero, but sleeping with Devan can be dangerous,” warned Jeremy seriously. Elena immediately flashed a big smile.

“Uncle Devan is not dangerous, Dad, he’s really nice,” Elena replied, trying to assure her dad and prevent him from having any inappropriate thoughts about Devan. “Dad, why is it that when I slept hugging Uncle Devan, it felt so comfortable? Plus, he smells good and refreshing,” explained Elena, giggling again. It was Elena’s first experience sleeping with a man other than her family.

Jeremy’s eyes widened instantly upon hearing his daughter’s innocent confession. Elena was already 18 years old, and he expected her to understand the boundaries when it comes to being with men, even if it’s Devan, their close friend. Nevertheless, Devan was a normal man. Who could predict if Devan might be tempted by the charms of his matured daughter?

“All right, quickly go to sleep! Stop talking!” Jeremy said firmly as he covered Elena with a blanket. Tomorrow, Jeremy decided, he would talk to Devan.

Jeremy stroked Elena’s head until she fell asleep. Because his lost drowsiness had returned, Jeremy decided to get some fresh air outside. Now, Jeremy sat on the balcony sofa, enjoying the beauty of the star-studded sky. The full moon ruled the night sky, creating a breathtaking view. Beautiful, truly beautiful. However, Jeremy’s heart suddenly worried about Elena’s behavior. Was he indeed being overly protective of Elena, as everyone claimed?

Once again, Jeremy looked back, recalling how he raised Elena. Jeremy admitted he was more possessive of Elena than his two sons. But it didn’t mean he played favorites or treated his three children unfairly. He distributed his love equally among his three children. He was so protective of Elena because he was afraid she might be influenced by the free-spirited teenage culture these days. Jeremy just wanted to take good care of Elena until she found a man who could replace him one day. To protect and love Elena sincerely, just like he did.

In just a few months, his daughter would embark on a new life as a college student. Elena was already an adult, no longer a little girl who needed constant supervision. It was time for him to loosen up, to set her free like his other two siblings. But he hesitated. He was afraid that too much freedom might lead her to regret later on.

“Why are you here?” said Vanessa who was currently standing in the doorway.

Jeremy’s thoughts were suddenly shattered. Then he smiled as he patted the empty area next to him.

“It turns out that our sons and daughters have grown into beautiful and handsome teenagers, huh?” said Jeremy looking at his wife’s face, which looked increasingly beautiful as she matured.

Jeremy and Vanessa are quite far apart in age, namely 11 years. So currently Vanessa is only 39 years old, while Jeremy himself has entered half a century. White strands have started to decorate his brown mane.

“That means we’re old, darling,” chuckled Vanessa as she touched Jeremy’s thin hairy jaw.

Indeed, her husband looks even more handsome, charismatic, and of course sexy in her eyes. Vanessa herself was surprised. The longer they are together, the more their love grows. Vanessa never felt fed up or bored because Jeremy always treated her like a queen wherever they were.

“Cooking? But you’re getting prettier,” said Jeremy with a grin and then hugged Vanessa. Invite him to enjoy the beauty of the full moon tonight.

“You’re old, you don’t have to act like a teenager!” Vanessa sneered with a chuckle as she put her left arm around Jeremy’s waist.

“With you I always feel like a teenager, always in love all the time,” replied Jeremy with a chuckle.

“It’s really a joke, even though he’s already fit to be a grandfather,” teased Vanessa with a loud laugh.

“Why are you upset?” Vanessa looked up to look at her husband’s handsome face. Instantly, Jeremy’s face turned serious. Staring at him was full of meaning.

“Has the way I educated Elena been wrong all this time?” The sentence finally escaped Jeremy’s lips. In fact, Jeremy usually never pays attention to warnings from his brothers and friends who are members of Club Cogan.

“That’s just your feeling,” said Vanessa, trying to encourage Jeremy.

To be honest, Vanessa felt that Jeremy’s attitude towards Elena was too excessive and tended to be possessive. But Vanessa also understands that Jeremy’s reason for doing all this is for the good of their daughter. It’s just that the way Jeremy expressed his love for Elena was wrong. Vanessa has often reminded Jeremy to give Elena space and time to enjoy her teenage years. Giving their daughter the opportunity to explore new things and develop her potential. Not just dictated to obey all Jeremy’s wishes. But her husband never paid attention to it. For Jeremy, their daughter is a diamond that they must take good care of before someone comes to take over their duties.

“Elena is too innocent. I’m worried,” Jeremy honestly succeeded in making Vanessa laugh. Wherever her husband went until he realized that his daughter was that innocent because he was always indoctrinated and dictated to her.

But Vanessa never blamed Jeremy at all because she knew her husband’s goals were solely for Elena’s good. It is still fresh in her memory that she almost became a victim of sexual harassment many times. Three times this happened and three times it was Jeremy who saved him in time. The worst thing was when he was kidnapped by his campus friend. Even now, the trauma still remains. But Vanessa also realizes how promiscuous she used to be as a model. Clubs and shopping are his hobbies.

“Actually, you just need to trust her, try to be open and accept that our daughter is an adult, no longer treated like a prisoner,” explained Vanessa, who succeeded in making Jeremy’s eyebrows knit together when he heard the word prisoner.

“How come you’re a prisoner?” Jeremy asked questioningly.

Vanessa suddenly laughed as she covered her lips when she said the wrong thing. Immediately Jeremy grinned then spoke again. “Are you brave enough to make fun of Brother?”

Before Vanessa had time to answer, Jeremy’s lips covered hers. Vanessa pushed Jeremy’s chest with all her might but it was useless because Jeremy’s body remained unmoved.

“Jeremy, Elena will find out,” Vanessa warned with difficulty because Jeremy was still chewing her lips.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Jeremy stopped his actions for a moment then replied, “Elena is already sound asleep, she won’t wake up. Besides, I haven’t had this for four days.” Instantly Vanessa laughed then put both hands on the back of Jeremy’s neck.

On the king size bed, Elena’s hands moved to look for the person who had hugged her. Not finding Jeremy beside her, Elena suddenly opened her eyes. Then he turned his gaze towards the sofa where Mommy had been.

“Daddy, Mommy,” Elena muttered as she scanned all corners of the room looking for the whereabouts of her parents.

Elena fell silent in a sitting position. The pain attacked his head again, his breathing felt heavy because his body had a fever again. While holding her head, Elena got out of bed to look for her parents. But suddenly his sense of hearing caught the sound of someone joking from the balcony of the room. Elena stepped forward slowly. From behind the curtain, Elena could see her parents kissing and occasionally joking. Elena’s body froze in place watching the intimate scene between her parents. Indeed, this is not the first. Elena had caught her parents kissing several times. Usually they immediately realize its presence and immediately stop the activity. But this time they were completely engrossed in their romantic love that they forgot that Elena was in their room.

Instead of leaving, Elena watched how her parents bit each other, responded, and gave each other satisfaction. Elena swallowed hard when she saw how Jeremy carried Vanessa’s body on his lap and then put his hand behind Vanessa’s neck to deepen their kiss. A strange feeling that he didn’t understand slowly came to him. Elena grimaced in a mixture of amusement and disgust. His stomach started to churn as if something was stirring inside. Then, without being able to hold back, a loud sound escaped his lips. A successful voice breaks up the romance between Jeremy and Vanessa.

“Huek… huek… huek!”
