"Charlotte, I miss you..." Atlas Hallow held Charlotte Miller, his large hands caressing her slender waist. He truly missed her.
"Miss ? Aren’t I right here with you?" Charlotte closed her eyes, a slight change gradually appearing in her breathing.
In the sa hotel, this scene seed to be repeating itself.
Joshua Hughes didn’t have much desire to say more to Tiger George’s son; his mind was preoccupied with Avery Jane. He worried Avery might be frightened since she was inexperienced and quite simple.
Alone in the hotel, ti passed neither fast nor slow, tick-tock, as if you could hear its footsteps moving.
What was going on with Joshua?
She desperately wanted to rush to the police station to see him, but she knew it wasn’t possible.
At this mont, Las Vegas was far from peaceful; even though she never knew much about Joshua Hughes’s business dealings or other matters, she understood that soone was targeting Joshua with this incident.
Now the best thing she could do was protect herself, not add trouble for him.
The spring scenery was beautiful, the presidential suite in the hotel was luxurious to the extre. She stood by the window, watching the hustle and bustle outside, cars and pedestrians, everything so lively and prosperous as if nothing had ever changed.
When would he be able to return?
Charlotte ntioned hiring soone to bail him out; why hadn’t he returned yet?
Could the situation be so difficult that it had even reached the stage where bail was impossible?
As ti ticked by, Avery felt as though her heart was being fried in oil. She believed Joshua wouldn’t land himself in a dire predicant, but such waiting was excruciating.
Through these events, she gradually ca to realize; if she truly wanted to be a woman who could stand by his side, she needed not only beauty but resilience and independence to face all unforeseen occurrences alongside him.
Like Charlotte, who managed to handle things calmly.
Yet matching Charlotte’s cleverness and composure wasn’t her own nature.
Avery gently closed her eyes, Joshua’s image erged vividly before her.
His strikingly deep eyes, when looking at soone, could always accelerate one’s heartbeat uncontrollably.
His aura, his warm and safe embrace, everything about him made her enamored.
She took a deep breath, trying to capture the lingering scent of his masculine presence in the air.
She missed him, wanted to hold him tightly, using all her strength to embrace him...
His scent, his presence, brains cells seed to leap joyfully everywhere in her mind.
She felt it was him, not through sll, but through sensation, as if she could feel him riding the elevator, slowly ascending, his distinct essence moving toward her.
With every second passed, the presence grew more intense.
It was unmistakably him, he was back.
Avery’s lips ford a subtle, alluring smile, like a little madwoman, she flung open the door and sprinted out barefoot. The expensive cashre shawl slipped silently to the carpet...
The four guards stationed outside had returned early. Joshua sent them out for errands, instructing them not to follow him but just protect Miss Jane well in the hotel.
The door was pulled open, and they were a bit surprised to see Miss Jane running out of the room, barefoot in her dressing gown, a smile on her face like sunlight piercing through the clouds, dazzling, truly too beautiful to gaze upon openly, reluctant to breathe.
As the elevator opened when she sprinted out of the room, "ding," the man stepped out, tall and strong.
Black dress pants, black shirt, jet-black hair glistening under the opulent hotel lighting, akin to the finest animal hides.
Under his defined brows, his deep eyes sparkled with laughter, his strong nose wings carried the allure of a mature man, watching the petite figure dash toward him, his thin lips curled into an enticing arc.
He never imagined, at the instant the elevator doors opened, a scene like this would unfold.
Like a movie fra, her face adorned with a smile, barefoot, light pouring down on her skin like luminous jade, more dazzling than spring breezes.
He was almost srized when that graceful figure had already thrown herself into his embrace, carrying a faint fragrance, her soft and warm alluring body made him extend his long arms, holding tightly, unwilling to let go even a little...
"Joshua Hughes, are you alright now?" Her small face was buried in his broad chest, his powerful and strong heartbeat always brought a sense of security.
"I’m fine now..." The deep voice, like a hypnotic spell, finally let her hanging heart settle back into her chest, as she lifted her head to look at him, how tall he was, as if she could only look up to him.
She just looked at him, fascinated, naturally and attentively.
The tender love in her eyes almost drowned Joshua Hughes.
The hot breath from the man above was clear, spraying onto the top of her head, then brushing against her charming cheeks.
"What, worried about ?" The deep voice carried the unique charm of a man, intoxicating like fine wine.
Avery Jane’s small face slowly turned red, captivatingly like she was intoxicated, shyly nodding.
"Mmm..." The gentle nasal sound softly penetrated his heart, wrapping his heart like silk threads.
She worried about him, she thought of him, that sudden happiness flooded towards him like an unstoppable tide, filling his heart.
In this lifeti, having this mont, he was truly satisfied.
When Julian Carter rushed over with the team, he didn’t expect his boss had already co out.
He asked the lawyers to first rest in the hotel, fearing there might still be so troubleso things to handle even after the person ca out, he didn’t dare let them leave.
But when he arrived here, he was actually blocked at the door?
What kind of nonsense is this?
"Assistant Carter, wait a mont, just now Miss Jane ran out to greet Young Master Hughes, the two of them embraced and went inside, I estimate they won’t be out anyti soon." The leading bodyguard recalled that scene just now, it was so exciting.
Young Master Hughes was stern and imposing, Miss Jane shy and charming, tender as water; surely inside that presidential suite now it’s passion like fire, at this mont Young Master Hughes certainly wouldn’t co out to open the door, he likes Miss Jane so much, it’s clear even to us.
Julian Carter’s head throbbed slightly, this boss really makes him want to die, want to buy a piece of tofu and crash to death.
The situation was already so dangerous, with a murder case leading to soone being taken away, how could he just think of that when he ca back, was that really so important?
In his heart, he cursed his boss bitterly to have no interest in won.
"How exactly did it happen?" Julian Carter despised his boss in his heart, but his face remained a permanent ice block.
"Yesterday Young Master Hughes went to sit with Tiger Geogre for a while, today we were supposed to return, maybe Young Master Hughes just went to say goodbye, after he ca out from Tiger Geogre’s place, Tiger Geogre was inexplicably murdered. We received information that Tiger Geogre was suffocated to death by a necktie, Young Master Hughes was the biggest suspect, so early this morning he was invited to the police station for coffee, later sohow Liam Hamilton found out about this, he vouched for Young Master Hughes, and he was released." This was all the news known now, because the police station was too embarrassed over the testimonies, so all news was not allowed to leak.
Julian Carter’s mind quickly sifted through, filtering all possibilities.
He tried to find a thread in this ss to unravel it all.
Still pondering heavily, he despised the man and woman in the room, really such a depraved man and an unprincipled woman...
Having been Joshua Hughes’s special assistant for so many years, he was familiar with his boss’s character, probably he really won’t co out anyti soon.
Indeed, as he expected, when the door finally opened, Julian Carter expressionlessly glanced at his watch.
"Two hours and thirteen minutes," he said coldly, the sight of the man opening the door explained what just happened.
The shirt’s buttons were casually open, revealing perfectly toned muscles, deep wheat-colored skin covered in sweat, slowly flowing down and following the Adonis belt into the dress pants; this scene was enough to make all won shriek and go crazy.
"Recent events are really annoying, though there’s at least one thing about which I’m not worried with the boss." Julian Carter started on his own, the presidential suite provided everything, the coffee machine and beans were top-notch, worthy of the nightly outrageously expensive price.
Upon hitting Avery Jane, anyway his boss’s intelligence was always offline, and never had self-control, made him really want to despise.
"What thing?" When Joshua Hughes looked towards the bedroom, his gaze turned tender and loving, but when it shifted to him, it was as if they had no acquaintance.
Really too infuriating, he had been with Joshua Hughes for ten years now, couldn’t he treat him a bit better?
