My Bossy CEO Husband

Undeterred, Barlow continued his playful banter.

“If you don’t love me, then why did you let me win?”

Karina shot back, “What exactly are you bragging about?”

Barlow raised an eyebrow, puzzled.

“Am I bragging?”

Karina snorted.

“Absolutely!”

As he watched the playful exchange, Kyson slapped the sofa, interrupting with a tease.

“Hey, you two, cut it out, will you? You two are flirting with each other.”

Karina gave him a sideways glance, “Kyson, you’ll be nineteen by New Year’s.

Maybe it’s time you found a girlfriend!”

Barlow chimed in with a smirk, “Kyson, got a girlfriend yet?”

Kyson’s gaze flickered away, and he mumbled, “I’m still too young.”

Barlow surveyed him from head to toe, pausing noticeably at his lower body.

“I wouldn’t say that!”

Karina slapped Barlow lightly and scolded, “What are you implying? Stop teasing him!”

Barlow feigned innocence.

“Did I tease him? We’re just talking Like men here!”

“Really? Come on, you are implying something else.”

She looked disgusted and tried to shove him away, but Barlow only laughed and pulled her closer.

“Can you cut me some slack in front of others?” he murmured.

“No,” Karina replied firmly.

“If you keep this up, I might just kiss you.”

Karina’s cheeks flushed a deep crimson as she swiftly changed the subject.

“Barlow, you’re becoming more shameless by the minute!”noveldrama

Seeing the two dive back into their flirtatious banter, Kyson voiced his protest.

“You promised to play games with me.

Are we still going to play or what?”

Barlow nodded.

“Sure, we’ll play.

How about the two of you team up again?”

Kyson shot a glance at Karina.

“No way! I’ll take you both on by myself!”

“Do you think Karina is a burden?” Barlow teased, raising an eyebrow.

Kyson caught the stern look on Karina’s face and hurriedly clarified, “Karina, I didn’t mean it like that!”

Karina gave him a frosty smile and playfully twisted Barlow’s ear.

“So, you think I’m a burden?”
