"Actually, I had planned to leave the Sutherland Family a long ti ago. I’ve already bought an apartnt and will be moving out soon. As for my career, everything is planned out. In the near future, in City C, there will definitely be a place for Dawn Sutherland!"
Nico Haynes patted Dawn Sutherland on the shoulder and encouraged, "Keep it up, I’m waiting to cling to your success! By the way, here’s a tip: make sure to hire a gorgeous receptionist for your company! It’ll make my visits enjoyable."
Dawn Sutherland: "..."
Arlo Seys smiled faintly and said in a gentle voice, "Dawn, if you need anything, just speak up. If there are projects that can connect with Era, co directly to . If you’re short on funds, both I and Third Haynes have so."
Nico Haynes raised his eyebrows with a mischievous smile, "Rember to give shares, and if there’s any collaboration, send a pretty secretary. You don’t need to co; I’m more into ladies!"
Dawn Sutherland gave Nico Haynes a disdainful look, "Is it still possible for us to break off our relationship now?"
Nico Haynes chuckled cheekily and hooked his arm around Dawn Sutherland’s shoulder, "We promised to be buddies for life! If no one wants you in the end, should we just make do with each other?"
"Ugh!" Callan Walkers’ hand on the steering wheel trembled fiercely, and the car swerved montarily.
Arlo Seys glanced at Callan Walkers, who imdiately sat upright, his voice loud and clear, "Report to President Seys, my hand slipped!"
Nico Haynes laughed heartily at Callan Walkers’ expression.
Dawn Sutherland shifted disdainfully, keeping so distance from the shaless Third Haynes.
Callan Walkers dropped Dawn Sutherland and Nico Haynes off at ho first, then drove his Boss back to the villa in Royal View City, and finally headed ho himself.
At the entrance of Royal View City, Arlo Seys got out of the car, and Callan Walkers left.
As Arlo Seys turned, he inadvertently saw a graceful figure napping on the bench under the Torrington tree on the left side of the gate.
Upon seeing the figure, Arlo Seys paused montarily before quickly walking toward the napping person on the bench, his eyes becoming incredibly gentle.
Arlo Seys approached, gazing at the face in light sleep, and instinctively crouched down, his long fingers softly tracing that unrivaled visage, sketching out the unforgettable silhouette etched deep in his heart, his eyes sparkling with starlight.
His fingers were gently rubbing between her graceful eyebrows when the napping person slowly opened her eyes.
Her gaze brightened, and Ariel Morris imdiately sat up straight, her tone brimming with joy, "Arlo, you’re back!"
Arlo Seys nodded, stood up, extended his long fingers, smiled warmly, and spoke softly and tenderly, "Let’s go ho."
Ariel Morris was montarily taken aback, and the word "ho" inexplicably touched her tear glands. All her worries from the evening lted away upon seeing Arlo Seys standing safe and sound before her, saying "Let’s go ho," her eyes misting over.
Ariel Morris reached out to his broad palm, and a warmth rose from the bottom of her heart, spreading throughout her entire body. She looked at Arlo Seys with a gentle smile, "Alright, let’s go ho."
Arlo Seys took Ariel Morris’ hand, a faint smile gracing his lips, while Ariel Morris’ dimples blood gently at the corners of her mouth, her eyes brimming with sweetness and purity.
The two walked hand in hand toward the villa.
At the gate, Arlo Seys unlocked the fingerprint lock, turning his head slightly to Ariel Morris beside him, speaking softly, "Why didn’t you co inside when you returned? If you didn’t have the key to the side door, this fingerprint lock can also be unlocked by entering a password; the password is your birthday."
Ariel Morris looked at the fingerprint lock in surprise, "I’ve always used the key to enter through the side door. I’ve never unlocked this fingerprint lock. Arlo... when did you set the password to my birthday?"
Arlo Seys smiled faintly, holding her hand as they walked ho, "Ever since I bought this house and renovated it, my mind was always on the thought of you who had lost contact."
"I feared you’d be bullied outside, worried you might not live well, might encounter difficulties and unhappiness..."
"And in those days of hating yet thinking about you, naturally, I set the villa’s access code to your birthday."
"I don’t know when you’ll return to City C. I feared forgetting you, so I set everything requiring a password to your birthday."
"Because that day is not only your birthday but also... the day you gave yourself to ."
"I kept reminding myself, Arlo Seys, you cannot forget Ariel Morris, you cannot let her down, you cannot fail the girl who gave herself to you for the first ti."
"Arlo Seys, no matter how long you have to wait, you must wait for Ariel Morris to return."
"Arlo Seys, even if it’s a lifeti, you must wait, wait for her to co back by your side."
They spoke as they neared the villa.
Just as Arlo Seys was about to press his fingerprint, Ariel Morris recalled the password Arlo Seys ntioned earlier and reached out to enter her birthday first.
The door unlocked with a click, and they walked in, with Ariel Morris closing the living room door.
The living room was lit only by the moonlight streaming in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making the scene sowhat dim.
But it couldn’t conceal the warmth and tenderness between the two.
Arlo Seys reached out to turn on the light, but a slender, soft hand stopped him.
Arlo Seys was about to inquire.
Ariel Morris kicked off her high heels, took a deep breath, stood on tiptoe, wrapped her arms around Arlo Seys’ neck, her voice soft yet gentle, "Arlo, it’s been over a month, every minute and every second, I’ve missed you so much."
As soon as she finished speaking.
Ariel Morris wrapped her arms around Arlo Seys’ neck and suddenly pressed her lips to Arlo Seys’ thin ones.
More than a month apart, not only had she missed him, but he missed her too, crazily, yet he had to restrain himself from seeing her!
Her initiative made the starlight in Arlo Seys’ eyes even brighter.
He held Ariel Morris’ head, turning passive into active, deepening the kiss born from longing.
More than a month’s worth of yearning turned into a frenzy, imrsing both of them deeply.
.....
Second floor.
Arlo Seys gently placed Ariel Morris down.
He looked down at her intently; in his eyes and heart, it was all her figure.
Ariel Morris bead with a delicate smile, her cheeks slightly flushed, eyes shimring.
Arlo Seys’ thin lips hovered, a re inch away from hers.
Suddenly, he let out a low laugh.
His voice carried a captivating magnetism, "Mrs. Seys, I’ve held back for more than a month from seeing you. How are you going to repay ?"
Ariel Morris wrapped her arms around Arlo Seys’ neck, a gentle smile on her face.
eting his tender gaze, her voice was soft and obedient as she replied, "Well... up to you."
"Alright." Arlo Seys’ smile broadened, "Mrs. Seys’ words truly resonate with !"
On this silent sumr night, the breeze drifted into the spacious room, filling it with warmth.
......
Ariel Morris lay in Arlo Seys’ arms, her lips slightly curled, filled with happiness and sweetness.
Arlo Seys’ long fingers ran through Ariel Morris’ silky hair.
His eyes were gentle, with clear outlines, his gaze brimming with light and affection.
Suddenly recalling sothing, Arlo Seys moved, fetching his suit jacket from the bed.
From the pocket, he took out a jewelry box, removing the necklace inside to put it on Ariel Morris...
