Leonel carried her bridal-style back to the car and settled her carefully onto his lap.Navia stayed quiet the entire time.Too quiet.The silence coming from her was enough to make his chest ache.Inside the car, the atmosphere was suffocatingly still. Jason didn’t dare waste a second, speeding all the way back to Hillside Villa as fast as possible.It was already late into the night.Yet every light inside the villa was on.For the first time, the enormous mansion no longer felt cold and empty.Leonel carried Navia all the way upstairs to the bedroom.Only after returning to the familiar safety of home did he finally feel the trembling in her body slowly begin to ease.Navia lowered her eyes and looked at the miserable state she was in.It seemed every encounter between her and Leonel happened like this.She always ended up shattered and broken, while he appeared before her like someone untouchable descending from a

“Nothing.” Leonel fell silent for a moment before saying quietly, “Some memories… maybe it’s better if they stay forgotten.”He brushed his hand against her forehead.Not only was she feverish, even her cheeks were burning hot. Her pale skin contrasted sharply against the soft rose color of her lips, giving her an almost dangerously beautiful fragility.Navia could be brave in some ways and unbelievably delicate in others.Like a spoiled little purebred cat—quick to bare her claws and throw a tantrum, yet easily frightened underneath it all.“Go back to sleep,” Leonel murmured. “I’ll stay here with you.”A trace of disappointment stirred inside Navia. She could tell he was deliberately changing the subject. Part of her wanted to keep asking questions, but then she suddenly noticed the exhaustion on his face.Leonel was still wearing the black dress shirt from last night. Sever

Navia bit down lightly on her lip. Her fever might have gone down, but the way Leonel leaned close to her like this made the tips of her ears burn hotter than before.No medicine in the world worked faster than one deliberately seductive move from him.She instinctively raised a hand to push him away, but she barely had any strength.“Don’t…”Leonel glanced at her ear.The delicate curve of it had already turned a vivid shade of red, instantly betraying her embarrassment.His eyes darkened further.The faint scent of rose and jasmine surrounding her seemed even sweeter now beneath the warmth of her body temperature.One arm wrapped securely around her slim waist, keeping her seated on his lap as he leaned closer. The bridge of his nose brushed lightly against the edge of her ear, intimate enough to make her entire body tense.Then his low, husky voice sounded beside her.“This time…” he mur

The date was set for the weekend. As chairman of the Crawford Corporation, Leonel Crawford naturally couldn’t clear an entire day from his schedule without arranging everything in advance. Before leaving, he paused and reminded her once more. “Don’t forget to call me. I’ll come pick you up.” Watching the man’s departing figure, Navia Harrison suddenly felt an inexplicable sweetness bloom in her chest. After freshening up, she headed to Dreamscape Lounge for her dinner appointment. At the table, Leonard Bell lifted his teacup with a smile. “Ms. Harrison, I heard you weren’t feeling well today, so let’s skip the alcohol. Tea instead.” Navia quietly let out a breath of relief. “Then thank you for being considerate, Mr. Bell.” “Of course, of course.” Though Leonard smiled warmly, his eyes kept drifting toward her, subtly studying her expression. “You may be sick, but you look surprisingly radiant today. Something good happen?”

Leonel took Navia’s hand and led her deeper inside.“Come on,” he said. “I’ll show you. You’re going to love her.”The racetrack had strict regulations. Every horse here was professionally bred and trained for competition. Not only were the horses worth fortunes, but maintaining fair racing standards meant security was tight and everyone entering normally had to go through inspection.But the Crawford Family happened to be one of the racetrack’s largest shareholders.Naturally, nobody stopped Leonel.He brought Navia straight into the stables.The stable was spotless and dry, filled with the clean scent of hay and leather.The moment Navia saw the horse, her eyes lit up instantly.She released Leonel’s hand and hurried forward.It was a jet-black mare, tall and powerful, every strand of her sleek coat gleaming beneath the stable lights like polished satin. She was so striking it was im
