"Wanna take a bath too?"
Emily and Moira, hand in hand, carefully climbed the rocky slope, bypassing the waterfall to spot two enormous boulders stacked together.
The muffled sounds of a man and woman intertwined in passion emanated from a crevice on the left side of the rocks.
Emily glanced back at the flowing water, surmising its sound had masked their approach, leaving the couple unguarded in their intimacy.
Moira, silent, gestured for Emily to move closer. Emily's heart raced with the taboo excitement of encroaching upon someone else's privacy.
Moving at a snail's pace, Emily was suddenly pulled forward by an impatient Moira. Nearing the rocks, Emily pointed upward, and Moira nodded. They stealthily climbed atop the large boulder, using tree branches to obscure their presence. Their vantage point perfectly shielded them from the couple's view while granting them a clear sight.

Falling for My Contract Lover "I've fallen for you"
Murray's gaze swept over Stacey's eyes; a faint voice murmured, "I'm hurt; I need to sleep alone."The statement left everyone speechless, unable to respond. The idea of sharing a bed with Stacey and Ronald, the lovebirds, was unthinkable. This meant someone would have to sleep outside. In a fit of anger, Stacey declared, "I'll sleep in the hammock."Stacey, after all, was a woman. Ronald couldn't possibly hog the tent and make a lady sleep outside. Besides, he dared not share a bed with Emily. He knew he was a restless sleeper and feared accidentally offending her in his sleep."You and Emily share the tent, and I'll take the hammock.""There's no need for that," Stacey said firmly before rifling through the equipment box to find the hammock, with Sam quickly following to help.Amidst this standoff, Jean said, "Let's do this: I, Stacey, and Emily will share a tent, and you three
Falling for My Contract Lover "I have a secret to tell you"
Without hesitation, Emily rubbed her face against his arm and chuckled softly, "I know."She heard his declaration of affection as calmly as if he were merely stating a preference for a dish, for she had heard these words from him not so long ago and had already responded in kind.Murray paused for a moment, as if understanding her thoughts, and let out a resigned chuckle before adding, "Before, it was a physical attraction; now, it's emotional. Do you think they're the same?"Emotional attraction?Was this a confession?Emily reached out to touch his forehead, checking for a fever. When she found none, she wondered if he was just being playful due to the day's stresses.Steady now, don't panic.Emily's eyes flickered with thought, and she pulled his hand to her chest, "See, just a few words from you, and my heart beats like this. You can
Falling for My Contract Lover "Perhaps the answer is that time changes all of us"
"What secret?" Emily tried to appear nonchalant, but her rapid speech betrayed her inner urgency, inevitably catching Ronald's attention."You're not seriously into him, are you? Out of brotherly concern, let me warn you—he's not a good man.""How is he not a good man?" Emily straightened up, unable to hide her interest.Ronald's eyes darted away, his lips moving as if he was torn between speaking and staying silent, a picture of utter conflict.Emily snatched his cigarettes from the center console and held them out the window. "Speak now, or I'm tossing these."Without his cigarettes, Ronald was like an addict deprived of his fix, yelling out in haste, "He's got a mistress on the side."Emily scoffed, "That's the secret you're dying to tell?"Ronald chuckled, "Don't underestimate a mistress. Her existence could shake up the entire
Falling for My Contract Lover "Aren't you going to ask who I'll be with?"
Stacey couldn't accept Murray's answer. She grabbed her wine glass, took a large gulp, and then asked the question she most desperately needed an answer to: "Who is the person you like?"Murray paused for a moment, then said indifferently, "She prefers to keep it private for now. When she's ready, I'll let you know."Stacey's heart had never felt as sour as it did then. Murray was that kind of person; when he chose to care for someone, he could offer boundless tolerance and affection. He had been like that with her once.Now, all that love belonged to another woman, and Stacey felt a jealousy she had never known. She stared at Murray, convinced he had turned to someone else because of her hesitation. She couldn't believe he could just let go of so many years of feelings. She resolved to win back Murray's heart.Unaware of Stacey's thoughts, Murray believed he had clarified his feelings, and there wou
Falling for My Contract Lover "Just my boyfriend"
Emily's heart skipped a beat at the sight of Lydia Sander. She had thought their paths would never cross again after graduation, yet they were both in Bucapital. Emily worried about the possibility of Lydia spreading rumors about her relationship with Murray, which could be disastrous for her reputation.With a steadied resolve, Emily approached and sat beside Lydia, offering a friendly smile. "What a coincidence."With her arms crossed and chin held high, Lydia seemed to relish the perceived upper hand. "I got in here on my merit," she said coldly. "As for you, well, you know."Emily took a deep breath, acknowledging the truth in Lydia's words. She was about to say something to lighten the mood, but the training supervisor began the session, so she remained silent.The four-week training program included two rounds of interviews. Not everyone could stay; it all depended on individual performance sco
Falling for My Contract Lover "Look at me and say it"
Throughout the afternoon, Emily's mood was somber, reflecting on the challenges of being a professional woman. She found dividing her attention between work and appeasing her boyfriend annoying. Sometimes, she thought, being just a casual fling was simpler than being a girlfriend."What's wrong? You seem upset," the stunning woman inquired, leaning close to Emily.Frustrated, Emily retorted, "Why do you keep watching me?"The woman smiled slyly, "I've been around the entire three dining area floors. Many beautiful women are in the company, but you're the only one who could be my rival. But since you have a boyfriend, I'm relieved."Emily, puzzled, looked at her questioningly.The woman leaned in and whispered, "I didn't join Bucapital for the job. I came here to find a man."Emily didn't need her to specify; it was obvious she meant Murray. Life was hard enou
Falling for My Contract Lover "Why are you there?"
Cornelius' calm voice on the phone, "That prodigal son of the Harrison family is here too, and he's currently plying Stacey with drinks.""I got it," Murray replied curtly before hanging up.Emily, having overheard the conversation, suggested, "Maybe you should go check on them. Don't want anything untoward happening."Murray gently grazed her delicate face with his stubbled chin. "You really want me to go?""You've all known each other for years. Even as friends, you should see if everything's alright."With a soft chuckle, Murray kissed her on the lips and stood up. "I'll go take a look."Emily hummed in response, watching him leave and hearing the door close. Resting her head on the table, she continued scribbling notes. Moments later, in a fit of frustration, she slammed her pen down. "Damn it, he just runs off at the first call, faster than a rabbit."
Falling for My Contract Lover "Actually, we could return to how things were at the beginning"
"Mr. Gibson, may I have the pleasure of your company for a drink?"Humphrey selected a bottle of 1990 Château Lamy's Grand Cru from the liquor cabinet. The waiter approached, taking the bottle to prepare it for decanting.Murray offered a faint smile and glanced at his wristwatch. "I'm afraid I'm otherwise engaged today.""Oh, come off it. Humphrey has even shared drinks with the president. How can he not be good enough for you?" Francis chimed in.Though Francis came from a wealthy family, he was tightly controlled by them and wasn't extravagantly rich. Since Humphrey's return, he had become Francis's cash machine, supplying him with an endless stream of beauties for amusement. He couldn't bear to see Humphrey unhappy, pretending not to notice.Murray shot him a cold glance and said nothing, stepping forward to pull Stacey away. "Let's go home."Stacey
