The moment Adriana grabbed the door and walked out, Calvin was filled with irritation. He wanted to yank her back, kick the glass window, and throw her out.

He wanted to ask Adriana, if he hadn’t have enough patience and tolerance towards her. In the past, her family had exploited his connections and taken away so much money. His so-called father-in-law and great-uncle had borrowed his reputation everywhere to pull loans and seek recourse. Calvin thought, if he ever faced Adriana again, he should split her head with a knife, forcing her to take responsibility for her father's debts.

Several times, Calvin suspected he was not acting of his own free will but was manipulated by Adriana. Yet, despite his anger, he surprisingly never laid a cruel hand on her. When she yelled and screamed, her words carried an undertone of pride that irked him to his core.

This woman made him so angry that his teeth itched with frustration.

    “Get some stomach medicine.”Hearing that the president wanted to take stomach medicine, Kevin’s voice instantly tensed. “I’ll go prepare it. President, did you hurt your stomach and intestines from drinking yesterday?”Calvin hooked the corner of his mouth, thinking—Without taking medicine, how else can I prove I was drunk and unconscious yesterday?“A little,” he replied.Kevin didn’t dare delay any longer and headed to the nearest pharmacy before the call even ended.Knock, knock.Calvin responded when he heard the knock at the door, “This is your house, no need to knock.”Adriana didn’t want to knock either, but she didn’t want to barge in and see something she shouldn’t.“I found the toothbrush. Do you want to brush your teeth?”Calvin said, “You don’t mind if I’m not wearing clothes? My assistant is a bit busy and won’t be able to come for a while, so I’ll wait inside.”Adriana thought this man should be more serious, not less. She’d never seen him so relaxed.“It’s okay. Brush

    His sleepy eyes were soft, not the kind that had been open for long. A faint haze lingered over them, his long lashes veiling the usual sharpness in his gaze. As he lifted the edge of the quilt, the defined triangle of his shoulder blade muscles and the elegant curve of his collarbone came into view.Adriana quickly averted her eyes to the foot of the bed.“What’s that supposed to mean? Are you going to tell me now that you got drunk last night and don’t remember anything?”Calvin rubbed his brow and glanced down at his bare upper body. There was no need to look further—he already knew what the rest would reveal. Then, with a lazy smirk, he said, “You mean… we did something last night?”“No.” A flat, angry, and biting reply.Calvin looked faintly disappointed, then gave a bitter smile. “Since nothing happened, what are you angry about? Disappointed?”Adriana’s fingers clenched the corner of the quilt tightly. If her nails hadn’t been trimmed clean and round, she would’ve surely dug th

    Not long ago, Calvin came out with wet hair, wrapped only in a blue and white bath towel. There was no bathrobe to change into—just that piece of fabric loosely tied around his waist, covering only the essentials, while revealing his well-defined chest and abs. Droplets of water rolled down his muscles, radiating an overwhelming sense of masculine allure.Adriana held her breath. Her nose nearly bled from the sight. She struggled to avert her gaze from the dazzling image in front of her and pointed to the sink.“Hair dryer…”She wasn’t sure whether Calvin didn’t hear her or simply didn’t plan to use it. Instead, he casually pulled off the towel and rubbed his short hair haphazardly, then walked toward the bedroom with a slightly unsteady gait.Adriana: “…”After washing up, Adriana realized a key issue as she stood in the living room in her pajamas—Calvin was sleeping in the bed.So where was she supposed to sleep?Her couch wasn't designed for sleeping. Unless she curled into a tight

    After making all the effort she could, Adriana finally pushed Calvin onto the bed, helped him take off his shoes, and stretched his absurdly long legs to the end of the mattress.She was so exhausted, she couldn’t even breathe properly.Her limbs aching, Adriana sat down on the bedroom carpet—physically drained, emotionally hollow, even her thoughts scattered to nothing.She glanced at the man slumped in a semi-conscious state, and all she could think about was the last words he mumbled before passing out:(You take me back to…)(Back to where…)(Back to your heart…)His lips had been right next to hers—hot, soft, and sharp as a curse.Back to her heart?Was it the drunken nonsense of a man too far gone to know what he was saying?Or had he, under the influence of alcohol, recalled some movie line and decided to make a game of it, applying it to himself for drama’s sake?Adriana cupped her head in her hands and shook it from side to side.No. She couldn’t let herself think anymore.Sh

    The snowy splendor of the box created a worldly beauty in the night. Standing under the low-hanging cascade of lamps would have unconsciously given birth to a dreamy feeling.And Calvin’s rare smile was even more like a gorgeous sunset torn from the sky, filling the room with brilliant colors, dazzling to the eye.Adriana had never seen him like this before.All his hostility stripped away, without a trace of aggressiveness—gentle, like a ball of dandelions blown by the breeze: light, soft, and delicate, something you’d want to hold in the palm of your hand.Adriana drifted for a moment, her voice lighter and softer, “Just… lie down if you can’t get up.”Anyway, the couch in the box was big enough. He wouldn’t suffer even if he slept there all night.Calvin shifted his arm clumsily, the wristwatch sliding down and catching on the thicker part of his lower arm, refracting a brilliant afterglow.

    “He didn’t mention it to you?”Adriana’s mother immediately sensed she might have made a mistake. Had she said something her son didn’t want discussed? Was this phone call a misstep?Afraid that her mother might clam up, Adriana quickly made up a lie to smooth things over. “A few days ago, my brother called and said he had something to talk to me about, but then he was suddenly called away for work. He got delayed and hasn’t had time to bring it up again.”Hearing that, Adriana’s mother felt slightly relieved. The hardships of the past few years had worn her down, leaving her more fragile and easily unsettled than before.“Since your brother’s restaurant opened, business has been good,” her mother said. “Someone here wants to talk to him about a possible collaboration. I’m not exactly sure what kind of partnership it is, but I heard the other party has some connections and
