Keyara's face turned even redder. The color of red spread to the tips of Keyara's ears.

"What kind of question is that?!" Grey looked at her, his face unreadable and it made Keyara even more uncomfortable.

"So?" Grey asked impatiently.

"Should I answer that?" Keyara tried to find a way to avoid it.

"Of course," Grey replied firmly.

"Well, I think your kiss...was...very...very...hot." As Keyara said the word "Hot," she felt her entire face heat up from her chin to her ears.

Grey nodded, he liked that answer. It was honest enough.

"Not bad," Grey said while nodding and then resumed driving his car. "Aren't you hungry, Key?"

Keyara furrowed her eyebrows. Oh, right, she hadn't had dinner and had completely forgotten about it due to her busy day. But was this a trick question?

    Keyara felt like her head was being crushed by a heavy object weighing tens of pounds. It was as if a pile of thick books had been placed on the back of her head, crushing it with excruciating pain. Slowly, she began to awaken in the darkness of the night. When Keyara sat up, her eyes started to capture an unfamiliar sight.This isn't her room?Keyara scanned her eyes to the side and was shocked to see someone covered in a blanket facing her. She could even hear the person's slow and steady breathing.Who? Who is that person?Keyara felt the bedspread where she was lying down. It felt smooth and was white.

    "Oh no, what should I do..." Keyara muttered anxiously, pacing back and forth in distress. Grey had already returned to bed, feeling sleepy.

It's only 2 in the morning!" he snapped.Hearing Grey's outburst, Keyara froze in her tracks, feeling afraid. Slowly, she sat down on one of the chairs on the other side of the room.Grey sighed, "You have to go to work tomorrow, right?

    Grey walked towards the door and turned to Keyara."Come on, I'll be leaving soon!" Grey exclaimed, making Keyara rush to tidy up her clothes and grab her phone from the nightstand drawer as well as sort out her backpack.Grey closed the door and walked down the hotel hallway with Keyara following behind."Sir, umm... I think I should go home. I want to change my clothes. It's not appropriate to come to the office wearing the same clothes as yesterday," Keyara said to Grey. "There are still two hours before we need to go in."In addition, Keyara was reluctant to come to the office together with her boss. It would be noticeable if a new employee came with their boss. People would think all sorts of things and Keyara didn't want her daily life to become gossip fodder."Why? Aren't you confident wearing yesterday's clothes?" Grey asked as he walked. He seemed unaware of the thoughts that went through Keyara's mind."Yes, sir. I'm embarrassed to

Even an ice cube would melt when exposed to the heat of a human body, let alone if a woman has given attention.Keyara was left stunned and dumbfounded when Grey's big hand-held hers as they walked out of the store. Then before they reached the boss's car, he asked her."Where do you want to eat?"Upon hearing the question, once again Keyara became flustered. Her face which was once flushed was now a perfect shade of red."Whatever you want, sir..." Keyara repli

It must have been quite a shock, but Grey was confident that if he reassured Keyara, their marriage could be restored.Thus, Grey whistled happily, imagining all the positive things in his mind.
