Chapter 0008

Boaz looked over. What do you know? It really was.

“Kieran and his wife sure are funny. Despite being married, they fool around with other people. But while Kieran picks young ladies, his wife picks old men. She sure has a unique taste.”

Titus had just returned to the country and was not interested in such gossip, so he did not listen to the conversation.

However, he found the woman’s back to be quite familiar.

Then, he saw Carol walk into the elevator with Louis.

When he saw the side of her face, he became sure that she was the woman who helped him escape the other day.

She was married to Kieran, the one with the crazy private life?

Disdain filled his heart. “Have fun. I’m tired. I’m going to sleep.”

“Come on, Titus. This is your welcoming party! It’ll be no fun without you!”

No matter what Boaz said, Titus did not turn back.

Sirius was convinced that Titus had something on his mind. “Don’t you think there’s something strange about him ever since he came back?”

“It’s normal for him to act a little strange, no? Someone went after his life the moment he got off the airplane. His return must be a threat to the people in his family. But it’s nothing. Titus has never wanted Abner Corporation. I don’t understand what those small fries are worried about.”

“That’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about how Titus didn’t even touch the escort’s hand just now. He got hurt in the chest, not somewhere else. Why is he staying away from women?”

Boaz finally realized that there really was something strange with Titus. He knew that Titus only slept with virgins, so he got one for him, but Titus only drank water during the party and did not look at the escort once.

“Let’s go to the hospital in the future so an andrologist can take a look at him.”

……

After Titus got into the elevator, he felt as if there was a weight on his chest, and he could not breathe smoothly. He unbuttoned his collar, but it was useless.

The feeling persisted even when he went to the guest room and drank two glasses of ice water. It just did not go away.

All he could think about was how Carol walked into the elevator smiling at the old man.

Meanwhile, Carol held out the contract in the room next door and asked Louis to sign it.

But Louis refused and grabbed her hand. “Time is precious, you know? As long as you satisfy me, I won’t break my promise.”

He put his arm around her waist and started moving his hand down to grope her butt.

Fortunately, Carol had had her fair share of experience with such men. She could be said to be a veteran when it came to dealing with them.

“Patience, Mr. Louis. Go take a bath. I don’t like people who stink of alcohol.”

Louis’s smile grew even more perverse. “It’ll be better if we take a bath together, don’t you think?”

“Sure. Go into the bathroom first. I’ll be there right after you.”

She even winked at him.

Once Louis went to the bathroom, Carol called Myka. The moment she answered, Carol whispered, “Come to Royal Court right now. I’ll send the room number to you. Don’t forget to bring your press ID with you!”

Myka had forgotten to bring her press ID with her last time, and the previous pervert nearly snatched her camera and broke it.

When Myka heard Carol’s request, she knew what Carol wanted her to do.

“You’re a vice president, so act like one! Why are you acting like a prostitute?”

Despite her grumbling, she got out of bed, grabbed her press ID and camera, and rushed over to Royal Court.

In the mean time, Louis called out to Carol from the bathroom. “Come in already, sweetheart!”

Get in, her foot. She was not going to sleep with him!

Carol checked the time. Myka lived nearby and would need at most a little over ten minutes to arrive.

She had to stall for time no matter what.

Finally, when Louis lost his patience, Carol received a message from Myka.

She was here.
