During lunch break, the office was sparsely populated. Some went out to eat, some gathered for casual chats, and others took a nap on their desks. Fiona planned to catch up on some gossip and then take a nap, but when she saw Bella returning with a stainless steel basin, she couldn't help but be curious. "What are you doing? Didn't you eat enough for lunch?" She remembered they had lunch together, and Bella didn't eat less than usual. As Bella placed the basin down, Fiona was surprised to see that it was filled with hot water. What was she up to? Steaming her face? Since when did she become so particular?

Bella sighed and took out a packet of Chinese medicine from her bag, tossing it into the basin. Fiona exclaimed, "What's this? Medicine? Are we treating low libido with medicine now?"

Bah! Couldn't she speak normally? Bella gave her a disdainful glare. "Could you introduce me to a practitioner who treats low libido?"

Fiona shrugged. "As a single woman of a certain age, I urgently

    "Business trip?" Calvin was genuinely surprised this time. While she might not understand his job, he knew quite a bit about hers. There were two reasons for that: what she had told him herself and what Calvin's mother had mentioned. She worked in graphic design, as a low-level employee, so why would she need to go on a business trip? "Where are you going? What's the purpose of the trip?"Rarely did he see her surprised like this, and Bella strangely felt a sense of achievement. She smiled and teased, "Guess!"Calvin didn't pay attention to such nonsense. Guess? How could he even start? There was no reason for her, a junior designer, to go on a business trip. Bella didn't keep him guessing for long and continued, "Thailand! Leaving on the 18th." She passionately described the perks of Cara's Sentimental Coconut Juice, and then sighed deeply, "After three years in the company, I finally get to enjoy this kind of benefit. This trip to Thailand can be considered a company-paid vacation.

    "Do it again? How shameless of him to say it so smoothly! And she believed he would definitely do as he said!" Bella was almost going crazy, and she didn’t even bother to swear. She struggled to break free from the large hand locked around her waist, feeling unable to communicate with him verbally. It was more straightforward to just leave.Calvin seemed to be enjoying the moment, letting her twist and struggle on his lap like a playful cat, watching her futile attempts to pry open his fingers. Suddenly, he extended his hand to wrap his arm around her and pulled her closer, his nose brushing against her ear. "Focus," he whispered."Calvin! Have you lost your mind?" Bella wanted to avoid his breath but had nowhere to hide, trembling with each wave of fear. "The door isn't closed, my mom is still outside!" She had just casually closed the door, leaving a fist-sized gap. How dare he?Calvin glanced towards the door, unconcerned. "It's okay, Mom won't come in.""I... I'll go close the doo

    It was always him charging in recklessly, so it was a first for her to take the lead. Now his penis was pressed up against her, teasing her until she couldn't stop trembling, desperately wanting to take him in. She even suspected that the overflowing desire was trickling down. Probably finding her movements too slow, he pressed down on her waist, and she moaned softly as she sat down completely, her legs giving way.The sudden feeling of fullness was satisfyingly trembling, he involuntarily tightening and refusing to let her go. She leaned against him, gasping for air, feeling so deep! Pressing against unknown places, waves of tingling sensations rushed over her one after another, unstoppable and overwhelming, making her feel a little dizzy.He supported her waist and helped her move, whispering in her ear, "Can you move yourself?""Mmm..." She weakly shook her head, clutching his clothes tightly, "I... I don't know...""Just follow my lead." As long as she cast aside her shyness, ins

    Bella squeezed herself further into the corner, desperately trying to create some distance, but it was too late. She couldn't help but lament the height of the building. If they were on the third floor, she would have taken the stairs. Devon glanced at the floor display and smiled, "We're almost there.""Uh-huh." Bella felt extremely embarrassed. What was she doing, standing so close to a completely unrelated man? If she were a naive young girl, perhaps she would have some romantic fantasies, but unfortunately, she wasn't. Besides, all her romantic fantasies had been given to Calvin.As the elevator ascended, it gradually became more spacious, and Devon stepped back. Bella breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt awkward. Finally, they reached the fifteenth floor, and she was the first to pull Jessica out. Devon followed, "Bella, come to my office later.""Um... okay." Bella couldn't refuse even if she had a hundred reasons not to. Jessica looked at Devon passing by and asked in a lo

    Fiona was surprised that Calvin remembered the joke between her and Bella. Although his tone was casual, she sensed a hint of teasing. Usually, when serious people make jokes, it surprises others. So, she couldn't help but give him another look, as Bella often joked, with an expression like a weather forecast. Jex, on the other hand, smiled and reached out his hand to her, "Hello Miss Jones, I'm Jex."Fiona glanced at the hand he extended, as a man, his hand was really delicate. She used the handshake as a cover to feel it. So smooth! She forced a smile, "Hello, my last name is not Jones."Jex paused for a moment, not surnamed Jones? "Then... may I ask your surname?" He glanced at Calvin with a puzzled look. Bella couldn't help but laugh out loud. Fiona was really good at flirting. Well, she had successfully caught Jex's attention. Fiona waved her hand, "Just call me Fiona."Uh... Fiona... Jex felt like he couldn't keep up with her smile.Julia's face grew darker the more she looked a

    The team for "Nostalgia Coconut Juice" was officially established yesterday, comprising seven members with Emily as the team leader. Judging from the personnel arrangement, the company attaches great importance to this project, as all participants possess both experience and capabilities, except for Bella, who sticks out like a sore thumb. Despite being a seasoned employee for several years, her business acumen is undeniable. Mr. Devon has promoted individuals out of the ordinary before, but those were young girls. Bella is already married, for heaven's sake! But that's not all. Mr. Devon actually assigned her to work with Emily on the project, which inevitably prompts speculation. Bella, tasked with creating a poster that underwent eight revisions, is now involved in planning? Setting aside her actual capabilities, Emily is astute and assertive, always a favorite in Mr. Devon's eyes. Bella's attempt to steal her spotlight might lead to a difficult time ahead. And indeed, Bella's da

    Indeed, Bella had already boarded the plane. There were a total of eight people on this trip, four men and four women. Because it was a business trip with a tourism element, everyone was in a good mood. Sitting beside Bella was a girl named Bonnie, who was getting married soon and was particularly looking forward to the trip to Thailand. She mentioned planning to go to Thailand to take wedding photos, so this trip was a perfect opportunity to check it out. Bella felt a bit envious; although she had spent a lot on her wedding photos, Calvin hadn't smiled once throughout the process, behaving like a mere prop. Upon hearing their conversation, Devon glanced over and said with a smile, "If you want to take photos, just let Oliver do it." Oliver was their colleague responsible for photography. Upon hearing Mr. Devon's words, Oliver immediately agreed, "Leave it to me. I'll make sure you all look stunning from head to toe." Bonnie leaned forward, "Deal. I'll have you take a set of portrai

    Listening to the noisy knocking and conversation on the other end of the phone, as well as Bella's hurried responses, he quickly gave her a few instructions and let her go. Bella really didn't have time to talk on the phone at the moment. When she went out, she saw Devon wearing a T-shirt and beach shorts, chatting with Bonnie in the room. When he saw Bella coming out, he smiled and said, "Get ready. We're going swimming." Bella was a bit dumbfounded. It seemed that this business trip had more leisure activities than she had expected. Whatever, if the boss said to go swimming, why would she worry about work? She hurriedly rummaged through her suitcase for her swimsuit, and heard Devon ask, "Do you guys know how to swim?" None of them knew how to swim, and Devon seemed a bit helpless. He smiled and said, "Looks like we need to give you all a crash course in swimming." Bella didn't even lift her head, thinking that Devon might be treating this trip to Thailand as a vacation, feeling

    "Absolutely not!""Dream on!"Two voices rang out simultaneously as Jex and Fiona locked eyes, engaging in a silent battle of wills. Jex was the first to turn his gaze back to the computer, remarking, "Wives are the most ungrateful creatures. They promise to give themselves to you, but once they do, they demand more. They’ll take half your savings, hold your assets hostage, and put their names on your house and car. Ask them to have a child, and they wail about their lack of human rights, claiming they aren’t baby-making machines. Damn it, even if I, Jex, had a fortune, you’d still have to give me a son!"Fiona retorted coolly, "Yes, some men think so highly of themselves. They assume women marry them for their money, while simultaneously saying 'I love you, everything of mine is yours,' and insisting on a prenuptial agreement. Not only that, but they also eye their wife's dowry. 'The house is mine; you just pay for the renovation and the car. Don't know how to drive? No worries, I do

    Bella has been feeling a bit anxious lately, the kind of anxiety you feel when your crush discovers a little secret of yours—nervousness tinged with embarrassment. She’s been waiting for Calvin’s reaction, but he hasn’t shown any sign of noticing that she turned their recent experiences into a novel. She feels both relieved and a bit disappointed. Why doesn’t he say something? Like maybe he doesn’t like it, or he doesn’t mind. What does saying nothing mean? She’s made countless guesses but never thought Calvin might enjoy seeing her troubled by guessing his thoughts.She’s even consoled herself like an ostrich, thinking maybe he hasn’t read the novel at all. After all, the plan was just proposed, and the story isn’t even finished yet. All future plans are empty talk until the script is completed. With that in mind, his lack of reaction seems reasonable.Now that "Like Wolves and Tigers" has finished airing, she has nothing more to do with the company. Her daily routine consists of wri

    Calvin had retrieved his car from repairs, but perhaps out of guilt, he found it increasingly unsatisfactory. Rather than driving something that displeased him, he decided it was better to buy a new one. Jex, learning of this, insisted on accompanying him. The old BMW X5 had been completely sidelined; Calvin would rather take a taxi than drive it. Jex jokingly called him heartless and ungrateful, lamenting that the loyal X5 had been abandoned despite its hard work. "What did it do wrong?" "It knows too much," Calvin said nonchalantly, fastening his seatbelt as he got into Jex's car."Knows too much?" It didn’t want to, either. It played along with your ruse, and this is how you repay it? Jex started the car and drove out of the parking lot. "Cars can't talk, you know. They're like mute illiterates—no matter how much they know, they can't express it."Calvin didn't respond. The car might not talk, but the passengers could ask questions. It's just easier to replace it. Shortly after th

    Bella watched Calvin close the door and couldn't help but laugh. Despite being a bit annoying, it was indeed a coincidence that they ran into Jessica again. Disrupted by her presence, they lost the mood for shopping and just bought a pair of rings before heading back. Bella leaned back on the sofa, holding up her hand to inspect the ring. Hmm, it didn't sparkle as much away from the display lights. Seeing Calvin's figure, she waved him over.Calvin sat next to her, glanced at the ring, and smiled without saying a word. She grabbed his hand to place the rings side by side. With the right lighting, the rings regained their brilliance. She smiled foolishly, leaning her head on his shoulder. Apart from their wedding ring, he had never given her any jewelry before. This was probably the first time. Women have an inexplicable fondness for rings and flowers.“Do you like it?”“I love it!” She smiled and gave him a light kiss on the lips. The peck was far from enough to satisfy him. He reache

    After finally getting into a taxi, Bella looked back at the photographers far behind, still snapping away, visibly shaken. Calvin seemed relieved as well. It was strange—why were there media outside the hospital? Few people knew about his hospitalization. How did the media find out? It was probably Jex’s doing.The call to Jex went through quickly. Jex was still talking to someone, haggling with a real estate agent by the sound of it. After finishing his conversation, he finally put the phone to his ear. "Calvin? I won’t be coming by this morning. Hold on until the afternoon, and I’ll help you to the bathroom."“I’ve been discharged.”Jex was a bit surprised. "Regained your sight?" He didn’t think it would happen so soon. "Stay a few more days. I can handle things at the company."“What’s with the reporters at the hospital entrance?”Jex laughed on the other end, pretending to complain. "How can we play happily if you pretend you don’t know it’s my arrangement? What’s the deal? Natura

    "Blind man feeling an elephant?" She remembered the trick they played in the hot tub in Thailand, and it really fit the current situation. But she really couldn't handle this position, struggling futilely, "Mm... not like this, it's so embarrassing!" Being positioned like this and having him play with her was really too shameful, wasn't it?"I can't see," Calvin said, his fingers drawing circles there, getting increasingly slick, his head slightly tilted as his lips pressed against the delicate skin on the inside of her thigh. The tender and gentle kisses mixed with his breath made her whole body tremble. She shrank back, begging, "I'm ticklish, stop it." The light touches were the worst; she was really on the verge of tears with nowhere to escape.As if to tickle her, his nose rubbed back and forth on the spot he had just kissed with a bit more force, then a warm, moist tongue slid over it, followed by his teeth nibbling on the delicate flesh, bringing a slight sting. Bella couldn't

    Calvin moved her hand away once more. "It's uncomfortable to sleep while holding you." Now Bella felt genuinely hurt. She had apologized, but he still refused her. Stiffening behind him, she debated whether to turn away herself. After a long while, she reached out again, hesitant to touch him. What if he rejected her again? She sighed softly, deciding to try once more. Snuggling closer, she hugged him again and said in a muffled voice, "I want to sleep while holding you." She felt his hand grip her wrist and her nose stung with tears. Was he really so firm? Pulling back, she felt a lump in her throat, "I need a drink of water," she muttered, getting out of bed and walking away quickly. She didn't turn on the lights. Calvin heard the sound of water being poured and the cup being set down, followed by her footsteps returning. She paused outside the curtain before quietly coming back to bed. This time, she stayed far from him, not even covering herself with the blanket, curling up an

    Calvin's minor injury had scabbed over by the third day in the hospital. During the doctor's rounds, Dr. Jason kept a straight face while making notes. He could sense that this patient was in a good mood today and was becoming more adept at acting blind. When asked about his eyesight, Calvin still claimed he couldn't see. Dr. Jason made notes in the medical record without any comment.When Jex arrived, he found the room lively. Calvin was pretending to be blind, Dr. Jason was expressionless, and Bella looked worried. Jex smiled, feeling that he had come at the right time. He glanced at the medical record in Dr. Jason's hand. It seemed that private hospitals were going all out, not only providing medical services but also playing along with the patient's act. What was written in the medical record? A script?Dr. Jason closed the medical record discreetly, advised Calvin to rest more, and then left the room."How are you feeling today?" Jex asked.Calvin didn't answer, but Bella, with a

    When Calvin’s wound got wet, Bella anxiously called a nurse to change the dressing. As the bandage was removed, the wound appeared pale, making Bella frown in concern. How could such a grown man be so careless? All this fuss only caused him more suffering. The nurse repeatedly emphasized that the wound should avoid water, but Calvin lay there with his eyes closed, showing no sign of listening. The nurse then turned to Bella with a tone of reproach, implying how poorly Bella was taking care of the patient.Bella felt frustrated; it wasn't intentional on her part. After the nurse left, she turned to Calvin to complain, "Did you hear that? The wound mustn't get wet! If you keep this up, you won't be allowed to bathe at all!" After all, they were in an air-conditioned room, and he wouldn’t sweat.Calvin lazily acknowledged her, feeling rather moody since he hadn't been able to have his way. Bella busied herself with organizing the wardrobe. Jex and Fiona had delivered her luggage from the
