10. Renewing the Contract

"What's that?" muttered Lydia when she felt something stuck under her keyboard.

"Ah, Mr. Reino was sitting there when he checked the report. Maybe it was a paper clip that got stuck earlier." Kiara, who heard Lydia's muttering, replied immediately.

Lydia's mouth opened wide when she heard Kiara's sentence. She had just heard that Reino had been sitting in her place when she had visited earlier. Luckily, Lydia returned after the man had left.

For some reason, Lydia had the thought that what was under her keyboard was not a paper clip that had accidentally gotten stuck. And when she picked up her keyboard, there was a little yellow paper clip. Not just one, but several.

With slow movements, so as not to be seen by the people around her, Lydia picked up the papers and unfolded them. She was no longer surprised to find almost identical writing on them.

"Meet me in the basement parking lot after work. Watch out if you are late. I'll fire you."

Lydia snorted quietly as she read all this. Wasn't this too childish for a man of Reino's age? He was 28 years old.

Not wanting to leave a trace, Lydia went back to tidying up her papers and carried them to the end of the room. She shredded the small rectangular papers.

"Ma'am, can I go down first?" Lydia asked her manager.

There were still five minutes before office hours, but she wanted to get out first. If she really left on time, the chances of anyone seeing her with Reino were slim.

Well, Lydia was actually reluctant to interact with the man again. But his threat was a bit frightening for Lydia. She still needed her job to live and support her younger brother, who was still in college.

"Oh, that's okay. It's almost time to go home anyway." Fortunately, Mrs. Nia allowed it.

"Do you want to take me home again? I brought my helmet today." Revan asked with a beaming smile. It was obvious that he wanted to be modus operandi.

"Sorry, but no. I'm in a hurry."

Lydia hurriedly packed her things and ran out of the room. Fortunately, the elevator came at the right time, so she could get down even faster.

At exactly 5 o'clock, Lydia was already in the basement parking lot, which was still very quiet. And without being told, she quickly walked to where Reino's car was usually parked.

Even before she reached her destination, Lydia could see the headlights of the expensive sedan flashing. The black glass prevented Lydia from seeing inside, but she knew it was Reino's behavior. That made Lydia rush into the car.

"Why did Mr. Reino call me?" asked Lydia politely as she sat down next to the man.

"This is going to take a long time. Are you sure you want to talk here?" Reino asked back with a rude snort.

"It's better that we're not seen together, sir." Lydia replied, still trying to be polite.

Lydia didn't say anything else, but she fastened her seatbelt. A sign that she would follow wherever Reino took her, and he soon did.

During the journey to who knows where, no one made a sound in the luxury car. Lydia was more interested in looking out the window, until their destination came into view.

"Why are we going to a hotel, sir?" she asked as Reino turned the car into a hotel where he was staying.

"What do you think?"

"If Mr. Reino dares to mess around, I won't hesitate to kick your 'thing.'"

Instead of fearing Lydia's threat, Reino laughed at her. Not a loud, booming laugh, just a mocking smile. And that was enough to provoke Lydia's emotions.

"I don't play with my words." Lydia snapped, trying not to panic even though her heart was already racing.

"You think I'm attracted to your flat body?" Reino's contemptuous smile widened, but Lydia was able to hit back.

"Then who do you think attacked me when I was drunk?"

Reino growled softly as he heard the statement from the woman sitting in the passenger seat. He wanted to argue, but that was impossible. Besides, the lower part of his body began to react as Reino remembered that night.

"I just want to talk in a more private place." Reino hissed softly. He had a hard time controlling himself.

"And does this private space have to be in a hotel bedroom?"

The man with the big nose and blue eyes snorted. He was clearly insulting Lydia.

"Are there only bedroom in hotels?"

Hearing this question, Lydia's face immediately turned red. She didn't remember that the hotel had a restaurant and a meeting room. And they also had a VIP room in the restaurant.

"See? who's thinking funny here." Reino still teased Lydia.

Not wanting to be provoked and end up humiliating herself even more, the long-haired woman decided to remain silent. Right now, silence was golden for her. And apparently the polar bear only wanted to take her to the restaurant. With a VIP room, of course.

"So what did Mr. Reino have to say to bring me to a place like this?" asked Lydia, wanting to get things over with.

Reino didn't answer right away because he had to pay attention to the woman in front of him. He had to find out what was going on with her.

The man watched his ex-wife carefully. Honestly, one look revealed that there was nothing interesting about the woman in front of him, except for her pretty little face. The rest was nothing.

At least, that's how it looked from the outside. But when Reino looked at those little lips, he reacted uncontrollably. His mind immediately went back to the events of a few nights ago and it made him growl.

That's right. Reino Andersen suddenly lost his ability in bed just because of a girl like Lydia? Just because he managed to taste a virgin?

"Sir?" called Lydia, because she thought Reino looked strange.

"No, forget it. This is crazy." Reino suddenly said.

"Pardon?"

Reino raised his hand and asked Lydia to be quiet. He had to think again and the result was the same. Her mind was made up, but that meant she had to lick her own saliva.

He remembered that he had once insulted Lydia's thin body. Just now he had mentioned it, but wasn't his future also something to think about? If he couldn't have fun in the long run, Reino was sure he would go crazy and then ruin his family.

"I intend to renew our contract." Reino finally said.

"Contract letter? What contract letter?" asked Lydia confused. She still didn't quite understand what Reino meant.

"I mean..." Reino stopped his sentence. He touched his bushy hair to calm himself. Before he finally said what had been on the tip of his tongue.

"Let's extend the contract. Be my bedmate whenever and wherever I want."
