Everyone's teasing had my face burning, and I shot Soren a half-hearted glare.Without a trace of embarrassment, Soren casually slipped an arm around my shoulders and announced, "I'll cover everyone's return tickets. First class for everyone.""Whoa! Thank you, Mr. Kenway!""Thank you, Mr. Kenway! Thank you, Miss Jones!"Amid the cheers, my coworkers elbowed each other, laughing as they dispersed. "Come on, let's head to immigration. We'll just be in the way of the lovebirds here."Too embarrassed to continue acting all lovey-dovey in front of them, I glanced sheepishly at Soren and turned to leave. "Right, I should go now.""Wait!" He immediately grabbed my hand, panic creeping into his voice.I raised an eyebrow playfully. "What now?" "You're just going to leave like that?" he asked.He looked down at me with eyes full of longing, like a lost puppy.I glanced around, realizing Sean had already disappeared too.Since there was no audience, I could afford to be shameless ju

We were in a foreign country, and Candy's raised voice drew the attention of every foreigner around us.Still, I ignored her and headed toward the elevator, Sean following closely behind with my luggage."Sean…" I hesitated, glancing at him. "Let's keep this little incident between us and not tell Soren, okay?"Sean nodded in understanding.After a brief silence, I couldn't shake off the worry that Candy had planted in my mind. "You've been with Soren for years. Has he ever faced any real danger?"Candy's irritation had struck a nerve, and I couldn't shake the unease about Soren's safety."No," Sean replied calmly. Seeing through my anxiety, he added quickly, "Miss Jones, there's no need to worry. Mr. Kenway's safety has never been compromised. Even if I'm not with him, there are always others looking out for him.""I see. Thank you."-Once in my room, I sent Soren a text to let him know I'd arrived before freshening up and lying down in bed. Despite my exhaustion, my ins

Candy shrieked and leaped up as if shocked by electricity, grabbing her phone in a hurry."Taylor! That does it!" she snapped, her voice seething with anger.I simply smiled and apologized, "Sorry, it was an accident. I'll buy you another cup of coffee and pay for your phone if the coffee got into it and caused any damage."Naturally, I knew perfectly well that neither a coffee nor a new phone would matter to her. I just enjoyed getting under her skin.Everyone in the meeting room stared at Candy, both surprised and irritated by the disruption she caused.Candy had definitely embarrassed herself.Gritting her teeth, she spat, "I'll remember this, Taylor!"She snatched up her cell phone and stormed out, creating another scene.I turned back and calmly resumed the meeting.I expected Candy to be gone by the time the meeting ended. Instead, she'd changed her clothes and was waiting outside.The moment she saw me, she yelled, "Taylor!""What's the matter? Still haven't learned y

As I held my phone tightly to my ear, Soren's deep, soothing voice filled my heart like a warm current, intensifying the longing that had been building inside me.As I gazed out the window, I recalled the couple I'd just seen passionately kissing and blurted, "I just saw a couple kissing openly in the streets, and it made me miss you so, so much..."I couldn't see his face, but I sensed his breathing quicken, and my own heart began to race.I couldn't believe I'd actually said something so mushy out loud. But I couldn't help it… The words had just slipped out."Taylor… Taylor..." he kept softly repeating my name.I could feel his excitement, imagining how desperately he wished he could grow wings and fly to me that very moment.I wanted to see him just as much, but Candy's words echoed in my mind, and reason slowly tempered my impulse."Soren, listen," I said. "You shouldn't come here. I'm going to be swamped over the next few days. Even if you came, I wouldn't have time for you

Seconds felt like days ever since Soren decided to come to me.But what truly caught me off guard was that Jean arrived before he did!I even doubted my eyes when I saw her walk into my hotel."Hello, my dear!" Jean greeted me with a booming laugh. "What's the matter? Don't recognize me anymore? Your show starts tomorrow, right? I haven't missed it, have I?"It wasn't until I heard her laughter that I was sure—my best friend had actually come to visit me.I rushed over and slapped her arms in disbelief, my eyes wide. "Why didn't you tell me you were coming?! Shouldn't you be at home with your aunt and uncle instead?!"I pulled her into a tight hug, lifting her off the ground with so much joy that I felt like I could fly."I've been spending time with them every day. It's not like I have to stay just for the festival. Besides, they always try to set me up on blind dates around this time. It's really annoying."As such, I booked my flights early and told them I was going to Medhe
