Seraphina wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. The young master’s words were so unrestrained now.It was a good thing she had raised the shield in time, or if Brother Carl had heard this, it would have been too embarrassing.Afterward, Seraphina cleared her throat and shifted the topic to something less awkward."So, young master, do you have a plan for dealing with it?"The young master nodded slightly. "Almost."When he said "almost," Seraphina felt a little uneasy.When the young master was confident, he wouldn’t say "almost."It seemed the issues at the shareholder meeting tomorrow were going to be tricky, and the young master wasn’t entirely sure about them. This meant she needed to be more observant tomorrow.“There are still two hours left on the road. You can rest your head on my lap for a bit,” the young master suggested.Seraphina shook her head. “I’m not tired.”“Then just close your eyes and rest.”The young master spread out a thin blanket and wrapped it around her.Se
Seraphina stared at the man in front of her, in disbelief.No wonder every time she asked about the hot spring project, he always gave vague answers, dodging the topic.No wonder he didn't bring any subordinates, claiming the resort was perfectly safe.No wonder he refused to stay in the villa area and insisted on staying in a hotel—wasn't it because of the large suite with no privacy?And in order to sleep with her, the young master really did make an effort, rescheduling his work, canceling important meetings, and basically preparing everything meticulously.But he probably never anticipated that she would have her period tonight, nor did he foresee the unexpected situation they were now in...Seraphina, thinking about her inconvenient period and the young master's frustration, bit her lip, trying hard not to smile.The young master scrutinized her face and softly asked, “Are you happy knowing that I have improper intentions toward you?”“No, no...” Seraphina quickly shook her head.
Twenty minutes later, the two of them were seated in the restaurant. It wasn't yet dinner time, so there were almost no other customers around.The young master had placed the order, but made sure to avoid any raw or cold dishes, clearly considering her special condition.Half an hour later, the food arrived almost all at once, and the restaurant started to fill up with more guests.Just as Seraphina picked up her chopsticks, she noticed a young man dressed in high-end casual wear walking toward them. The man had a tall and slender figure, an outstanding presence, and a confident stride. He looked like a top model, and for some reason, he seemed very familiar, as though she had seen him somewhere before.The young master noticed her gaze and asked, "What are you looking at?"He turned to follow her line of sight."Young master, this person looks really familiar..."The young master turned back and replied, "That's Young Mr. Anderson, Lucas. Yesterday, Mr. Deven introduced me to a few
The young master slightly leaned forward, furrowing his brow as he gazed at her."Did you have a nightmare?"Seraphina shook her head. It wasn’t a nightmare, but a happy dream—so happy that she didn’t want to wake up, wishing she could live in that dream forever.She closed her eyes, and her parents' smiles seemed to be right in front of her. Their voices and laughter echoed in her ears.She really missed them... no matter how many years had passed or how old she had become, that longing had never faded.She wanted her parents to be there as she grew up, wanted them to see what she had become, and now, more than ever, she wished for them to meet the person she liked.But death is irreversible, and those old times could only live on in her dreams.As she thought about this, her tears flowed uncontrollably, silently and endlessly, spilling down her cheeks.The young master continuously wiped away her tears, but they didn’t stop. He gently stroked her back."Seraphina, you’re making my h
A few minutes later, the Master returned, holding a paper bag, and handed it to her.Seraphina glanced down at the packaging inside the bag, slightly stunned, and looked up at the Master in confusion.The Master asked, "What's wrong? Is it the wrong brand? Don't you use this one?""No, Master, you bought the right one...""Then why aren't you changing? Do I need to help you?" He smiled as he glanced over her body, his tone a bit mischievous.Seraphina was extremely embarrassed but still voiced her confusion."How did you know I use this brand and model?"She hadn’t mentioned anything to the Master earlier, but the sanitary pads he had chosen were exactly the ones she used. It felt too coincidental.The Master took off his T-shirt and replied casually, "Because I saw you buy it before, and I remembered it."Seraphina’s heart warmed, and her eyes stung with tears. She thought she was just the Master's little secretary, assuming he never paid much attention to her. She never expected him
Seraphina immediately took a step back, shaking her head repeatedly. "No need! It’s probably nothing serious."She knew that the young master was a skilled doctor, and when he said he wanted to check her, it seemed like it was from a purely medical standpoint. But the thought of him examining her body, with her exposed in front of him, made her shudder. She’d rather suffer the blood loss than have him see her that way…The young master, however, had other thoughts. He took a step forward and said earnestly, "It’s better if I check, just to be safe."Seeing him approach, Seraphina was frightened and continued to step back. Her lower back bumped into something metal, causing a dull pain, but she couldn’t care less. She stretched out one hand to stop him, while the other clutched the bath towel around her, her words tumbling out in a panic. "It’s really nothing serious. It’ll probably get better soon! Besides, I’ve got a lot of blood, a little bleeding doesn’t bother me, I’m fine, really
