Chapter 71: Ethan, you’ve got some wild tastes

“Ryan, can we not talk about this, please?” Sofia’s eyes were red as she turned her head away, unable to meet Ryan’s gaze.

“Mom.” Ryan’s fists were clenched white, his eyes fixed on her. He felt a tightness in his chest. He had thought he was acting for his mother’s happiness, but instead, he had pushed his young and beautiful mother towards that sleazy middle-aged doctor.

Her expression now felt like a slap in his face.

Could it get any worse than ending up with a middle-aged doctor?

“I’m sorry, Ryan, I… just give me some time,” Sofia pleaded, remembering Ethan’s advice to keep their affair secret unless absolutely necessary.

She had her pride. If Ryan found out that his mother had been intimate with a bedridden young man…

Sofia felt like she could just die of shame.

All she could do now was hope that Ethan’s mysterious plans wouldn’t fall apart. She was too far in to back out now.

“Time.” Ryan saw the discomfort on his mother’s face. She had already done so much for him,he couldn’t bear to press her further.

His expression changed slightly, “When can you tell me?”

“I…” Sofia took a deep breath, “Tomorrow. If you really want to know, I’ll tell you everything tomorrow.”

That was what Ethan had told her to say when Ryan asked.

“Okay.” Ryan didn’t mind waiting another day. He nodded.

It was just one more day,he could wait.

…

The morning sun raced through the glass, filling the room with light.

Ethan’s hospital bed was by the window, and the morning sun shone directly on his face, brightening his mood.

Sofia’s face, however, was filled with discomfort. As soon as she found Ethan alone in his room, she hurried in. “Ryan asked me about it yesterday. What do we do now? Can you tell me your plan?”

“Oh, Ryan finally confronted you?” Ethan’s eyes lit up. “Help me sit up.”

Sofia’s lips twitched as she took a deep breath and helped him up from the bed. “So, do we come clean to Ryan now?”

She looked at Ethan with a hint of reproach. This whole mess had started with Ethan’s persuasion.

A part of her screamed that this whole situation was this boy’s doing.

But she quickly dismissed that thought. After all, Ethan was just a bedridden young man. If he was behind this, then none of it made any sense.

It was all just a coincidence.

He was just trying to help Ryan, that was all.

Sofia calmed herself and waited for Ethan to respond.

Ethan whispered in Sofia’s ear, watching the expressions on the beautiful wife’s face change from shock to bewilderment to hesitation.

“Don’t worry, trust me.” Ethan took out his phone and sent a message to Blair, seeing Sofia still hesitating. “Or just tell him about us. It might be easier for Ryan to accept that you and I have a purely physical relationship, rather than finding out you’re with Dr. David.”

Sofia sighed softly, “Let’s do it your way.”

As a mother, she didn’t want her son to think she couldn’t control her desires, especially not with a paralyzed young man.

“I’ll go have a chat with Ryan,” Ethan said, looking at his wheelchair. “Don’t let him overthink things. Blair will be here soon to tell you what to do.”

“Okay.” Sofia nodded reluctantly.

In Ryan’s hospital room, he saw his mom pushing Ethan in, a look of melancholy flashing in his eyes, especially when his mom left alone, making him feel like she was sneaking off to meet someone.

His thoughts turned green with envy.

“Ryan,” Ethan called out, snapping him out of his thoughts.

“Oh, sorry, I didn’t sleep well last night,” Ryan said, regaining his composure with an apologetic smile.

He considered Ethan his only friend.

They were both in similar situations.

Lying in a hospital bed, feeling the loneliness, made their friendship even more precious.

Ethan’s feelings for him were genuine, after all, having been intimate with his mom, he always looked at Ryan with a bit of a paternal aspect.

“Ryan, check this out.”

Ethan lowered his voice, glanced around to make sure no one was watching, pulled out his phone, opened a video, and handed it to Ryan.

Ryan blinked in surprise and looked at the screen. It showed a scantily clad woman on her knees, holding a penis in each hand, with another in her mouth.

Her stockings were torn, and there was another penis entering her from behind.

Ryan’s mouth fell open as he watched the scene with five men and one woman. “Man, what a crazy setup to get that kind of action.”

“Top-notch stuff,” Ethan winked at him. “If you want it, I can send it to you right away.”

Ryan coughed lightly, “You know, showing this to a guy with a heart condition might not be the best idea.”

Ethan blinked, quickly took his phone back, and gave an awkward smile. “Sorry, didn’t think that through.”

You know, as guys, swapping weird videos is pretty standard.

Ryan just chuckled, looking at Ethan like a younger brother, feeling a bit more relaxed, and winked back at him:

“So, Ethan, this is your kind of thing, huh?”

“Yeah,” Ethan didn’t hide it. “But I’m not into the whole ‘lonely housewife’ thing. Lately, all these videos are the same—lonely housewives looking for group action. No creativity. I prefer videos where young girls are forced into it.”

Ryan gave a knowing smile, “Ethan, you’ve got some wild tastes.”

Talking about sex is always a good way to bond for guys.

They chatted for a bit more, but Ryan seemed a bit distracted.

Today, Aunt Sofia had been away longer than usual and came back to push Ethan back to his room.

“I’m heading back,” Sofia said as she helped him onto the bed, then turned to leave, but Ethan grabbed her hand. “Aunt Sofia, if you leave without doing anything, Ryan might suspect something.”

“I told you yesterday, that was the last time,” Sofia’s face darkened, still thinking about sex at a time like this.

“Oh, but it’s all for Ryan,” Ethan’s voice was seductive. “Mrs. Miller, you wouldn’t want Ryan to find out about us, would you?”

Sofia remained silent, closed her eyes, walked to the door of the room, skillfully closed it, and drew the curtains.

She walked to the bedside, just as skillfully unbuttoning her coat, revealing the graceful figure of a mature woman.

Upstairs in the hospital room.

Ryan saw his mom leave Ethan and not come back for a long time. He knew she had gone to meet that mysterious man again.

He sighed softly, then suddenly his pupils dilated.

The words Ethan had just said flashed through his mind—lonely housewives getting into group activities.

Combined with his mother’s evasive looks and her saying he might not accept it.

“No, it can’t be.”

If being cuckolded had levels,

Ryan felt like he was at the darkest level of green.
