"Why are you here?" Wade set down the bag in his hand and turned to look at her.Janice felt an indescribable awkwardness, mixed with emotions she didn't even dare to think about."I brought you your jacket." She waved the jacket in her hand, almost as if to prove she hadn't been eavesdropping.Bradley rubbed his nose. For some reason, as an outsider, he felt a twinge of awkward guilt.He didn't know Janice well since Wade never talked about her. But it wouldn't have been good if she had overheard that conversation just now."I'll leave you two to talk." Bradley smiled at Janice warmly.But Janice couldn't help thinking that since he was closer to Alicia, he would probably side more with her."Thank you." She nodded.Bradley stepped aside and helpfully closed the door behind him.Janice finally entered and handed Wade the jacket. "Have you settled in?"She actually wanted Wade to give some kind of explanation about his call with Alicia earlier.He could just tell her he was

Ariel raised an eyebrow. "They don't know I was sick or about the surgery. This mission is really important. I can't refuse."She needed to cooperate with the government when necessary.Janice knew that Ariel's sense of responsibility was far too strong.After helping Ariel settle, Janice looked at the man's jacket lying on her bed. It was the one Wade had tossed to her earlier.On the way over, she had felt the sun was too strong. Wade had given her his jacket to shield her from it.After some thought, Janice said, "I'll go return his jacket. You should take a nap."Before Ariel could even respond, Janice had already dashed off.Watching Janice's retreating figure, Ariel could tell that she was brimming with anticipation. After all, she had admired Wade since childhood. That feeling still lingered.The accommodation for Wade and the others wasn't far from their place.When Janice arrived with the jacket, she was in a good mood. Wade giving her the jacket earlier had made her

Early that morning, Janice had texted Wade to let him know she would be going on a business trip. That was when she found out Wade was also on the same assignment list.So he had stopped by the Swanson residence to pick her up, and they headed to the airport together.When Ariel spotted them from a distance, she stopped and turned to Jayson. "You should go now."Jayson's gaze deepened. "Alright. Call me when you land. I have some company matters to handle, but once I'm done, I'll fly over to see you."Ariel blinked in surprise. "You don't need to go through all that trouble.""What else am I supposed to do? Sit around missing you?" His tone was calm and composed, but coming from that refined, aloof face of his, it felt oddly out of place to Ariel.She hadn't thought of that."I'll go when I can. Then we'll head to Nacsall together." Jayson gently pinched her cheek. There was a trace of reluctance in his eyes.He couldn't believe how clingy he had become. That wasn't like him at

Ariel watched as Jayson neatly packed her clothes into separate bags."I've separated the lighter and thicker clothes. You catch colds easily, so I've packed different kinds of medicine in the kit. The ones you need to take daily are in this clear box." He lifted the case to show her before placing it in the suitcase.Every time he added something, he looked up at her and explained it carefully.Ariel just watched him quietly. Her chest swelled with a mix of emotions—mostly a calming warmth.Jayson did think things through better than she did, paying attention to details she would have missed.While he was packing, Ariel texted Janice to ask if she was free to go on the trip with her.Janice replied almost instantly, "Sure! I'll treat it like a vacation. I'll feel better being there with you."Remembering that Janice had gone with Wade to celebrate her birthday, Ariel asked, "How's the birthday celebration going?"It took a while before Janice replied, "Not bad."Seeing that,

Ariel stared at Jayson in confusion.He closed the door behind him and started walking toward her. Without a word, he took the bag right out of her hand.She reached out to grab it back, but he was faster. Frowning, she snapped, "Jayson, what are you doing?"He set the bag aside and took her wrist instead. "Come with me to the master bedroom."Something suddenly occurred to Ariel. She looked at him suspiciously. "You're not seriously…"She stopped mid-sentence, pressed her lips together, then said firmly, "I need to pack. Don't start anything, and don't get any funny ideas."Besides, he was still recovering. There was no way she would let him push himself.Jayson stopped then, amusement flickering in his eyes. He took another slow step forward. "Funny ideas? We're married, you know. That's just normal interaction between a husband and wife."Ariel stepped back. A tingle ran up her scalp as she shot him a warning look. "Are you trying to slow down your recovery? The doctor said

The call was from a department head at the military base."Ariel, there's an urgent business trip. It's important, and we need our best senior engineer to lead the team. You'd be flying out tomorrow. Can you make it?"Ariel slapped away the hand tracing her earlobe.Jayson seemed obsessed with everything about her. When she pushed him away, he only grew more dissatisfied. He wrapped an arm around her neck to pull her even closer."Business trip? Where to? What exactly will I be doing?" Ariel asked.She had no other choice but to press an elbow to his shoulder to keep some distance."To Bellador. We've got a strategic partnership with them, but their tech setup's been giving us a lot of trouble. The higher-ups want you to go as our lead engineer to handle some of the technical issues and work closely with their team on-site," the department head replied.When Ariel heard the name of the country, she knew it had always maintained close ties with Croinia. The two had frequent excha
