Zach tapped Hansel's shoulder from behind enthusiastically. "When did you get here? Why didn't you tell us? We have a room upstairs. Come, join us for a drink!" Hansel rubbed his temples and said, "I'm not drinking. You guys go ahead." Zach felt a little puzzled as he watched Hansel leave. The lat
After exchanging some pleasantries, both of them remained silent for most of the journey. Paul was driving the car he usually drove. He could sense that Miranda wasn't in the best of moods, so he drove at a leisurely pace out of consideration for her. When they arrived at the entrance of the luxur
There was a hint of fear in Miranda's hoarse and trembling voice. She seemed like a frightened but helpless bird. Hansel felt his body burning up with lust. He gave up removing her top and slipped his hand directly under her skirt. Miranda panicked. "Hansel, you can have any woman you want! Why ar
Hansel wasn't one to back down either. He raised his fist and swung back at Paul. "How dare you hit me? Who do you think you are?" he snarled as he attacked Paul. "When I was being intimate with Miranda back then, you were just a nobody!"Paul intercepted his punch easily. Unlike Hansel's furious a
Miranda had loved Bartovian food served on the second floor of the cafeteria when she'd been a student. The cafeteria lady serving food there had a chubby face and had radiated warmth whenever she'd smiled. Every time she'd seen Miranda, she'd chat for a bit before generously adding an extra helpin
Once Miranda returned home, she immediately started arranging her books. She was drenched in sweat after she finished placing them neatly on the shelves. Walking into the living room after her shower, Miranda noticed the ointment she'd left on the coffee table. She picked it up and unscrewed the ca
"Come over," Hansel replied. On the other end, Ingrid almost jumped for joy under the covers when she read the message. She'd intentionally tried to test Hansel many times before, even with some hints of seduction. However, he'd never responded.Ingrid thought it would be the same this time as well
"Have you finally come to your senses?" Zach shot to his feet. "Are you going to stop acting like you're a man without any mortal desires?"Despite the sarcastic remarks, Hansel remained expressionless. He didn't even raise a brow."There's no special meaning to it, and it's not my first time doing
Miranda posted nine photos on her social media with a caption, "From my boyfriend."She was frustrated. Why was she restricted to only nine photos on her feed? If she posted more than nine, it would turn into a video automatically. If she could, she would have posted 90 photos. After all, they were
As soon as Miranda stepped out of the building, she swept her gaze across the vast stretch of white snow and saw a man dressed in a down jacket. Paul turned to Miranda with a smile the moment he heard the sound of footsteps. Stunned, Miranda exclaimed in surprise, "Paul? When did you come downstai
After returning from the Garrison estate, Miranda finally learned that Paul had actually abandoned his work at the lab midway just to have dinner with her family."Dr. Jefferson, please come to the lab tomorrow to continue authorizing the access permissions." Esme's flat and emotionless voice came t
Paul had arrived quickly. During dinner, he had beaten Sam to it when he tried to sit next to Miranda. Sam had tried to take the seat on the opposite side, but Fiona had cut in and taken that seat before he could. …"So were you deliberately stalling him when you said the remote was broken before t
Aren couldn't understand it. "Why are you in such a rush? Sam has been single for quite some time, and you've never reacted this strongly before."Of all things, she wanted to set up a blind date."You… you're not sleepwalking, right?" Aren asked cautiously. Fiona turned to glare at him immediately
"Huh? Why didn't I hear Sam start his car? Has he left? Let me take a look…" Aren muttered as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and peered out. "I knew it! His car is still there. He didn't leave at all. Could his car be stuck in the snow? That doesn't make sense… It hasn't been snowing long
The night was dark and silent as the heavy snow fell. Inside the estate, Fiona glanced out the window. "Oh, it looks like it's snowing outside," she said. Sam remained indifferent as it snowed every year in Elgerson. To him.. Or rather, snow was nothing special to anyone who grew up in Elgerson.
Aren nodded. "That works too. Sam, you don't need to send them off then. Head home and rest early."Sam remained silent. Before long, a maid came in and reported, "Both boxes have been loaded into Dr. Jefferson's car."Paul bid farewell to the elderly couple. "Mr. and Mrs. Garrison Senior, we'll he
Miranda was completely unaware of what was happening at the chessboard. At that moment, she was sitting on the couch and watching a dating reality show with Fiona. Yes, a dating show. In Fiona's own words, she said, "I just love watching young people fall in love. If I happen to find a couple I li
