The following day, Gwyneth got out of bed early.She had promised Root yesterday that she would bring the wonder doctor to treat his grandma.She looked at the man dozing next to her. She carefully lifted the quilt and got ready to get out of bed.In his sleep, Liam scowled as he realized that she had left. Therefore, he extended his arm to pull her back into bed.Gwyneth was aware of his intentions. She smiled helplessly, bent down, and gave a light kiss on his handsome face.Satisfied, Liam finally relaxed his hold.A little over an hour later, he also got out of bed. He searched every corner of the house but could not find his wife.Rather, he discovered a note on the dining room table.Gwyneth had left it behind before she departed, and it was written in an elegant font."Liam, I've made breakfast for you. I kept it warm in the oven. Remember to eat your breakfast before going to the office."Liam was deeply moved. His wife did indeed give him the best care.Gwyneth had
Gwyneth got to her feet and began packing her medical equipment.She said, "I have something to do over there. You can come along. You don't have to worry about the flight tickets. I'll ask my secretary to take care of them. What do you think?"There was a new area for development in Scarlet Highlands. Her data suggested that this land would soon become a highly competitive project. Because of this, she wanted to obtain it.She could conduct a thorough survey since this chance presented itself. Her confidence in the land's market value would increase as a result.Root agreed right away. After all, he had no idea what a century-old Safflower looked like. If Gwyneth was willing to take him there, it would have been a better arrangement.If accepting this meant that he was tacitly siding with her, he was not bothered by it."Okay, I'll let you know when the departure time has been decided."Gwyneth had other matters to handle in the office. She did not spend much time at Root's hou
Liam teased as he strode over and pulled Gwyneth into his arms.She indirectly responded to him and snorted, "Women always fall for you! There's always someone who covets you everywhere I go!"'All right, she's jealous! She always gets jealous but acts like she isn't. Women frequently say things contradicting what they mean. What's worse, I'm powerless against her! She's so cute.' Liam bent down and put his face against her shoulder. After that, he laughed in secret.Gwyneth suddenly spoke again, "I'll be checking out a project at Scarlet Highland for the next few days. Furthermore, I'll be helping Root collect an herb. While I'm away, you should take care of yourself and eat well."Liam's smile froze. He quickly lifted his head and demanded, "I want to go with you!"He had only been away from her for half a day, and he was already distracted and restless. He would miss her terribly and agonize over her if she was gone for a few days. He refused to have a long-distance relations
Gwyneth and Liam were shocked to hear this. Their faces briefly showed a hint of surprise.When Liam saw another flight attendant assist a familiar figure, he was about to ask a question.The two of them approached them slowly. The man simply sat down and took Liam's seat.After the passenger settled down, both of the flight attendants gave him a polite smile and uttered, "Mr. Hut, we wish you a pleasant journey!"They then departed to help other passengers.As soon as the flight attendants were gone, Hayden's eyes went back to their usual clear look, as if the one who had pretended to be blind and gained sympathy was not him.He still carried himself with the usual gentle and elegant demeanor, but he appeared like a wolf in sheep's clothing to Gwyneth and Liam.Liam wrinkled his brows. A cold glint began to flicker in his eyes.It was clear to everyone that Hayden had altered the seating arrangement.By pretending to be disabled, he had gained the privilege of choosing his se
The captain announced, "Ladies and Gentlemen, our flight to Cogrington has taken off."The plane accelerated on the runway before taking off.Hayden cast a glance at Liam, then raised his brows and smiled triumphantly.He spoke to Gwyneth despite Liam's warning glance."Gwynnie, the weather is lovely today. After we land, would you like to join me for dinner?"Gwynnie, are you visiting Cogrington for the project at Scarlet Highland?""Gwynnie..."She had no desire to converse with this man, who kept calling her Gwynnie and talking nonstop.She turned her body away from Hayden as the plane entered the clouds, then closed her eyes, and pretended to sleep. After all, out of sight, out of mind.Hayden was not going to pass up this opportunity to defeat Liam.He quietly approached her, lowered his head, and gently breathed against her ear when she was not looking. In the next moment, he bit her earlobe and grinned triumphantly.They adopted a very intimate posture. When Liam saw
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.Gwyneth assumed it was Liam. She casually put on a bathrobe and answered the door without giving it a second thought.When she opened the door, she said out of habit, "You're back!"When she saw the visitor, her expression froze. She chided, "Why do I see you everywhere I go?"Hayden was dressed in a suit and holding a bouquet of roses while standing straight.His lust flared up when he saw her in a bathrobe. His dark eyes locked on to her beautiful curves and stayed glued to them for a long time.Gwyneth suddenly realized that she was in a bathrobe and practically exposing her body to him.Annoyed, she attempted to hurriedly shut the door.Hayden, however, had taken a step forward and blocked the door.He entered the room and quickly locked the door behind him before she had a chance to respond.Liam was unlikely to return so soon, and the two of them were the only ones in the suite.Hayden's breathing became hotter as he contemplated this.G
Hayden gritted his teeth to hide his discomfort. He reluctantly picked up the rose off the floor and walked away in a bad mood.The only people still present were Gwyneth and Liam. The tense atmosphere had become less so.Liam immediately withdrew his icy aura. He lowered his head to examine her seductive look in a bathrobe."What are you doing?"A little shy, Gwyneth put her hand over his eyes. She scolded him, "Jerk!"Liam grabbed the opportunity and pushed her up against the door. He held her waist, and the soft sensation was appealing to him.He placed his chin on her shoulder and breathed in the pleasant aroma of shampoo and shower gel. He exhaled deeply and said his grievances, "Hmm, I just saw Hayden hugging you."His deep jealousy filled the air.A thought occurred to Gwyneth. She raised her hand to touch his head and said, "He did that to provoke you. I couldn't break free."No further explanation was needed. Liam would believe her, and she knew that."I know," Liam
The trio met at the hotel's entrance after breakfast, as per the arrangement.Root greeted them politely right away, saying, "Hi, Gwyneth and Mr. Luther."He instantly noticed the love bites on Gwyneth's neck.This young man was still a virgin, but that did not mean he did not know about it. He quickly turned his head away and coughed a little to hide his embarrassment.They loaded their luggage into the car's trunk. After making sure everything was in order, they left for Scarlet Highland.The car quickly left the city center for the mountain road, where it continued until it reached Scarlet Hill's summit.Due to the ongoing development of the mountain range in recent years, many developers had looked into the area. They hoped to take advantage of the scenery and natural resources of Scarlet Hill to develop a tourist destination. The road was, therefore, well-constructed and easy to drive on.At first, none of them experienced any discomfort.However, the higher they went, t
