One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 35: Fears
This is also something that always scares Joel, because he feels that whenever Primrose is free to leave, even without saying goodbye to him.Primrose saw Joel's cold attitude and firm face and was now only confused as to what to do. Anyway, in their relationship, Joel was always the one who gave in and never got angry, so now that he no longer kept his temper, Primrose began to panic."Sorry, it's not that I take our relationships lightly, but when I wake up, I'm already lying on the hospital bed with a colleague by my side. At that time, my state was also stable, so I thought it was not a big deal; there was no need to inform you anymore."Of course, Joel couldn't bear to be cold to Primrose for too long; even more, he couldn't get angry with Primrose. Seeing this reserved and worried attitude, Primrose could only sigh. Assuming he wasn't strong enough, he didn't want to keep questioning Primrose to confuse her even more, especially since she had just returned from the hospital."Ok
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 36: Hard to sleep
After turning off the lights, the senses became even more clear, making Primrose clearly feel the existence of Joel next to him when his scent lingered on the tip of his nose and the sound of his breathing was even. Perhaps because she had just woken up, Primrose was no longer too sleepy, but afraid of disturbing Joel, she just lay still, obediently placing her hands on her stomach.After a while, still not feeling sleepy at all, Primrose turned gently. At this moment, the right person next to him quickly grabbed Primrose's wrist and turned, smoothly pressing on her."Can't sleep?"Joel's voice in the night seemed to be exaggerated in volume; the low bass sound transmitted to Primrose's ears was indescribably seductive, making her blush. Primrose nodded sheepishly, moving his hand to escape. Joel drew closer and teased."I can't sleep either; do you want to exercise with me before going to bed to sleep better later?"Of course, Primrose understood that Joel was trying to tease him, bu
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 37: Shut up
Primrose really didn't want to talk to someone as stubborn as Jamie; the impulsiveness and stubbornness in every word made her mood gradually worsen. Ever since Cris broke up with Jamie, she'd come to Primrose's side and say such nonsense.Primrose just felt disgusted."Also, now I don't fail like before. I was accepted to be the head of the strategy department at company X; I don't need to mention my reputation anymore, right?""You and I won't be on the same level in the future, hmm."Jamie seemed to remember something, speaking arrogantly. After all, among them, very few people choose to start a business, but they often go to do what they like for a few years and then inherit the family company. Jamie wanted to work for a big and famous company before taking over her father's company, which is understandable.But when Primrose heard the name of company X, it was a bit funny; isn't that Joel's company? It seems that the fate between her and Jamie is always very magical."Yeah, you a
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 38: Ex-girlfriend of Joel
After having dinner with Nancy, Primrose returned home comfortably as usual. At this time, Joel has not returned; she is sitting on the sofa watching TV series as usual, continuing to watch a movie that has been very hot recently.In a typical love drama between a rich director and a beautiful and poor secretary, the two overcome the age gap and family background to be together. Even in the midst of difficulties and objections from their families, the two still held strong hands to overcome everything.The plot is not too special; what attracts viewers to these films is the cast with high beauty values. For example, the main male character has an outstandingly handsome appearance, is 1m85 tall, has a deep and seductive voice, and has eight-pack abs. This alone is enough to make many girls determined to follow the sequence from beginning to end of this movie, including Primrose. Looking at handsome boys has always been her favorite thing to do.So when Joel returned, he found Primrose
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 39: Absent-minded
"Why are you in a bad mood? Did something happen?"Joel naturally sat down next to Primrose, resting his head on the sofa and watching her eat strawberries. Realizing that Primrose's state was somewhat absent-minded, disinterested, and unhappy, Joel suddenly asked"Nothing; I must have watched a lot of movies today, so my eyes are a bit tired, and now I'm a bit sleepy."Primrose made up an excuse and took a bite of strawberry, not wanting to question Joel about Auntie right now. Anyway, that kind of tender message doesn't reflect anything; moreover, Primrose doesn't know how Joel will respond, so questioning or accusing Joel is somewhat unreasonable. Not to mention, considering what Primrose and Joel initially agreed on—not to interfere in each other's private lives—Primrose now has no right to mention the relationship between Joel and Auntie.Joel actually believed Primrose's words again, thinking that it was too late, so Primrose was tired, only gently patting her head in response.
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 40: You disturb me a lot
Primrose and Nancy, on the other hand, definitely solved Primrose's current concerns by not caring about Joel anymore and letting things happen naturally. However, Joel's side was not so easy; he was bothered by the object Primrose mentioned to Nancy in the morning.Auntie.Today, Joel has an appointment with a customer at noon to discuss an upcoming project. When he just went down to the company lobby, he saw a figure running towards him. Fortunately, his secretary behind him reacted quickly and blocked Joel, and the guard also promptly ran to hold the strange woman."Joel, why don't you reply to my message? You haven't seen them yet?"At this time, Joel raised his head to look at the source of the voice, also realizing that the person coming was Auntie. Disgust and impatience immediately appeared on Joel's face. Auntie didn't seem to recognize them again; her sparkling eyes looked straight at Joel as if she were very hurt when he was ignored, her lips pursed with pity, and the tip o
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 41: Misunderstandings Appear
After returning from work, Joel still wants to pick up Primrose as usual and receives a message from Primrose saying that she will go for a walk with Nancy, then visit Nancy's house and go to the bar in the evening. Joel, of course, has no opinion about Primrose going to the bar, but the obvious alienation in Primrose's every gesture worries Joel.In the end, what happened? Or, inadvertently, did he accidentally do something to anger Primrose, making her now not want to contact him or even want to breathe the same atmosphere with him?Joel brainwashed his head, Primrose didn't come home, and he also suddenly regretted not staying at the company over time to now face the emptiness and loneliness. He sighed and had to seriously research the famous jewelry design brands that the secretary sent in the afternoon, seriously choosing a brand whose design style suits Primrose the most.After a long period of concentrated selection, Joel was captivated by the sophisticated and charming jewelry
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 42: Why didn't he say anything?
Primrose's mind suddenly stagnates because she drank alcohol just now, so even though she drank a glass of lemonade Joel made, she was still not fully awake to perceive the current situation. She was dazed for a moment before replying, her voice somewhat hoarse."You are Auntie, right? Now that I and Joel are legal husband and wife, you said you and Joel love each other, so are you the third person to interfere in destroying other people's feelings? Truly disgusting, really makes me feel disgusted."Primrose scolded angrily, causing Auntie on the other side to freeze. According to the information she learned, Primrose is a woman who is not too gentle but also polite and is absolutely not a hot-tempered person. So what is the current situation?"Are you crazy? If you want respect, don't talk to me so confidently, what a shameless. If I were you, I wouldn't even dare to go out because I'm afraid of other people's judgmental eyes."The glaze gradually dissipated, but Primrose bellowed an

In the familiar tone and warmth that radiated from Joel's hands, Primrose quietly watched the video being played on the large screen. It was a video of her and Joel's love story, starting from the day they got married after their crazy first encounter.Primrose didn't know how Joel had compiled and edited them into this video, but everything felt incredibly genuine. From their initial excitement and awkwardness on their wedding day to the gentle kiss they shared, it all felt real.The video shifted as the two of them moved in together. Primrose saw herself and Joel sitting at the same dinner table; there was no communication between them, not even a glance exchanged. It was a bit amusing.Throughout, Joel kept his head tilted, watching Primrose closely and observing every expression on her face. He witnessed Primrose's emotions as she looked back on their past. By this point, the video continued playing, showcasing the gradual bonding between Joel and Primrose. Amid the soothing piano
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 84: The secret I've been keeping for you
Time passed calmly in the afternoon; at least while working, Joel didn't play any mischievous tricks or surprise Primrose with sudden kisses. She was comfortable and didn't need to be cautious anymore. She spent the afternoon leisurely, wearing AirPods and watching TV shows, and then returned home with Joel.Initially, Primrose had some difficulty adjusting to this unusually comfortable life, but it quickly became a habit. She was entirely satisfied with her current job and Joel's attentive care for her.After returning from the company, instead of cooking as usual, Joel ruffled Primrose's hair and mentioned that they would dine out tonight. Occasionally, Joel would book a table at some famous restaurant for dinner, so Primrose didn't question it. She obediently went upstairs to freshen up and change.When she emerged in an intricately designed white dress, Primrose slowly smoothed her hair and smiled sweetly at Joel."How do I look? Do I resemble the most beautiful woman in the world
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 83: Pasta
Since boarding the plane, Primrose has remained cautious of Joel as usual, maintaining an extremely cold and distant attitude and not uttering a word to him. Joel had grown accustomed to the silence and indifference, so he didn't dare disturb her, sitting up straight with his back against the seat.After a while, Primrose began to feel drowsy and quickly leaned back against the airplane seat, falling asleep. Joel made sure to carefully place a thin blanket over her to keep her warm before closing his eyes to rest as well. Waking up early had left their bodies tired and sleepy.A few hours later, as Joel drifted into sleep, he felt a slight weight on his shoulder and a sweet fragrance wafting around his nose. He turned his head to look, and his gaze became even more tender as he saw that Primrose had rested her head on his shoulder and was sound asleep.Her smooth white face had a faint rosy hue, her nose gently rising and falling with each breath, and her eyes were closed beautifully.
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 82: Girls always want to feel cherished
When Primrose spotted Nancy ahead, she let out a relieved breath, enthusiastically skipping over to grab Nancy's hand. Nancy was somewhat surprised by Primrose's overly excited reaction, staring at her for a moment to search for any unusual expressions. Unable to resist, she asked,"Why are you suddenly so happy to see me? It's quite rare."Hearing this somewhat teasing remark that caught her off guard, Primrose pretended not to understand and tugged Nancy along ahead. Of course, she couldn't share the recent events with Nancy; otherwise, Nancy would offer advice that wasn't really suitable for their age and would only make Primrose more embarrassed when facing Joel.The four of them arrived at the restaurant together, falling into the habit of couples sitting side by side. Primrose was still sulking about the earlier incident with Joel, so when he pulled out a chair for her, she merely let out a cold huff before sitting down slowly, intentionally avoiding looking at Joel even once.

One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 81: Be honest for a moment
Joel walked quietly, and Primrose followed, leaning her head against Joel's broad shoulder. Neither of them spoke, but both could vaguely sense the gentle heartbeat of the other.A sweet, elusive sensation enveloped the space, making the sun-drenched journey feel warmer and gentler.By the time Joel carried Primrose back to the hotel, she still remained in a dreamy state, not fully escaping that unfamiliar emotion. Joel carefully carried Primrose into the bathroom and helped her wash her feet. The cool water slowly awakened Primrose as it trickled down. She lifted her head to look at Joel, their gazes meeting tenderly, filled with unexplainable emotions."Take a shower, sweetie. I'll wait for you."Joel lightly kissed Primrose's forehead and left. She mechanically picked up her clothes and entered the bathroom. The warm water enveloped her, dissipating the haziness within her, yet Primrose remained absentminded, thinking about the warm words Joel had spoken earlier.The sincerity of h

Upon returning to the hotel, the first thing Primrose did was slump onto the large bed, sighing continuously."If I had known that going out would make me this tired, I wouldn't have invited everyone for a cruise."After a few hours on the cruise ship and a lunch break earlier, Primrose's energy had been depleted, leaving her too tired to even sit up. Joel smiled, gently using a makeup remover pad to clean Primrose's face and remove her makeup carefully, then affectionately wiping her nose with a tissue."Alright, stop complaining. Change your clothes and take a nap. We'll go for a beach walk this afternoon.""If you're really exhausted, I don't mind helping you change clothes."Joel raised an eyebrow and winked mischievously, successfully making Primrose slightly flustered as she sat up, rushing to the bathroom with her clothes. She quickly changed into a comfortable set of pajamas and once again lay down on the bed, feeling the softness of the mattress and blankets."Can I sleep at
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 79: Perfect candidate
In the days after returning to work, Primrose had a lot of free time and planned the upcoming trip with Nancy for the two of them and their boyfriends. Although it had been mentioned before, and furthermore, Brian and Joel had never had an official meeting, Primrose and Nancy were both eager to push for this trip.Regarding the planning, since Primrose was currently the freest person in the company, she did most of the work. This ranged from choosing suitable places to visit to selecting a hotel. Concerning Primrose's choices, the others had no objections, so on a beautiful weekend morning, all four of them set off to Country A together.Joel carried luggage for both Primrose and quietly followed behind, while Primrose cheerfully carried her handbag ahead. She excitedly held Nancy's hand, who was being helped with her suitcase by Brian, strolling and enjoying the city's scenery.The two men glanced at each other and chuckled softly, suddenly feeling camaraderie.After arriving at the

When Primrose woke up for the second time, it was already quite late. She blinked a few times to fully wake up, then looked around the room. Perhaps by this time, Joel was in the kitchen cooking, so she also got up leisurely, folded the blanket, and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth. After that, Primrose put on her pajamas and went downstairs to find Joel yawning and tousling her slightly messy hair."Awake now, sweetie? Did you sleep well?"Since he had heard the faint footsteps from the stairs, Joel knew that Primrose was awake. He took off his apron and hung them neatly, then approached to help Primrose adjust her slightly messy hair before pulling out a chair for her to sit at the dining table."Are you ready for breakfast? I'll get it for you."Primrose was still not fully awake from her dream, her gaze flickering lazily. Water droplets from washing her face still glistened on her fair complexion, but Joel carefully wiped them away before bringing her breakfast.As requeste
One-night stand: Sweetie, you'll be mine Chapter 77: Once upon a time
Indeed, the next day, Primrose's condition had improved significantly, and her temperature had returned to normal. When she woke up, she mentioned to Joel that she wanted to go to the company, but it was evident that Joel didn't agree.Despite that, Primrose was still feeling weak, so she decided to rest for another day to fully recover. Furthermore, the company was under Joel's ownership now, so she didn't need to exert herself unnecessarily.Finally, Primrose lay on the bed, casting a frustrated and resigned glance at Joel, leaving him feeling somewhat bewildered about how to respond. After a momentary internal struggle, Joel gently stroked her soft hair, now lightly scented with the fragrance of lavender."Alright, fine. I'm concerned about you, so I don't want you to go to the company and tire yourself out. It's only seven in the morning, get some more sleep."Since her request had been denied, Primrose didn't want to show a favorable expression towards Joel, so she turned her hea
