Finally home, Kendrick didn’t even go upstairs. It seemed like he didn’t even make it to the living room, stopping right at the entryway.Annabelle, however, didn’t have the same stamina as him. After a short while, her legs gave out, and Kendrick had no choice but to carry her to the large sofa in the living room. As he set her down, he teased, “Legs weak so soon? Haven’t been exercising lately, have you?”Annabelle innocently replied, “I’ve been at the hospital with you every day, where’s the time or mood for exercise...?”“Lazy Annabelle has excuses now?” He said with a teasing tone, increasing the pressure of his hold on her.A moment later, Annabelle relented, “Okay, I’ll start exercising. Just don’t be like this...”Kendrick calmed down and said, “Alright, I’m out of the hospital now. I’ll make sure to accompany you for more exercise in the future.”Annabelle twitched the corner of her lips. “Not too often.”“How about five days a week, rest two?”Annabelle thought for a moment

The young master spoke in his usual calm tone, discussing business matters. But when he said, “After bathing with you, I feel a certain charm,” a buzzing sound filled Seraphina's head, and a hot flush of blood surged from her heart, rapidly spreading throughout her body. She felt as if she had become a boiled shrimp at that moment.Later, due to other company matters, they were delayed for two days, and the inspection that was originally planned for last weekend had been pushed back by another three days. They only arrived today. This was why Seraphina was now here with the young master.Upon arriving, the young master informed her that they might need to stay a few more days as there were more places to inspect, and they wouldn't finish in two days. To her surprise, the young master had only booked one room—a luxurious presidential suite.How transparent is this room? The entire wall is made of floor-to-ceiling windows, stretching from the bedroom to the living room, and then the din

“Enough!” Seraphina interrupted sharply.She reached into her back pocket and pulled out a small metallic object. Glancing at it, it was a USB drive.Without hesitation, she tossed the USB drive at Sid. “Take your stuff back. I know exactly what kind of person the young master is, better than anyone else. I only trust my own heart.”As for what was on the USB drive, she didn’t want to know and didn’t care.With that, she turned and walked away.“Seraphina!” Sid called out desperately, almost hoping she would change her mind.Seraphina paused, turned her head back, and gave him a cold look.“The young master has always been exactly who we know him to be. He’s never done anything wrong by us. If you don’t want to follow him anymore, then leave. If you stay, then stand firm. Don’t let rumors sway you. If you serve the young master well, he’ll never treat you unfairly. As for me…”Seraphina paused for a moment before continuing, “I know what I’m doing. I don’t need anyone to worry about m

Seraphina was quietly peeling shrimp, not even needing to look up to sense the flirtatious glances that Miss Moore was sending the Young Master across the table.Where was the Young Master? He was chatting with Deven, talking about trivial matters, nothing too important, just about what was fun around the area. Miss Moore occasionally chimed in, her voice clear and melodious—such a voice could have been made for singing, it would be a shame not to be a singer.But why was the Young Master helping this Miss Moore? He never got involved in other people's matters, so why would he make an exception for her? Had he developed some sympathy for her?Seraphina couldn't help but inwardly complain that the Young Master was both reserved and flirtatious, liking Anna on one hand and showing sympathy for Miss Moore on the other, while also messing with her…Chuck had once said that men were just animals driven by their lower halves, always thinking about love or not, and women were never too many—

Ryan smiled slightly, "Thank you for the kind offer, but I might not have time to come over."Chloe looked into his eyes, seemingly trying to gauge his meaning. Then, she sighed regretfully, smiled, and said, "Well, maybe another time. Here's my number. Once you're back in Elfhedge, you're always welcome to come over and taste some wine with me."She said this as she took out a golden business card holder from her purse, delicately pulled out a scented business card, and handed it to him with both hands.Ryan glanced at the card and then at the smiling woman across from him."Thank you," he said politely as he accepted the card, placing it on the table.At this moment, Seraphina had just picked out her ice cream and was about to take a bite when she noticed that only Ryan and Chloe remained at the table. Chloe seemed to have handed him something—was it a business card?Ryan actually took it?Seraphina furrowed her brows, and instinctively quickened her pace. But after a couple of step
