Audrey Sutton was sitting on the toilet playing a mobile ga when she received the ssage.
She imdiately exited the ga and replied, "Back at the hotel."
Then she quickly asked, "What style of suit do you like?"
In no ti, two words popped up in the chat box: "Anything, send a photo I’ll take a look."
Audrey Sutton: "Co back and see for yourself."
In the eting room.
"President Warner?"
Faye Xavier gently nudged Shane Warner with her elbow, softly reminding him, "Master Shane!"
Only then did Shane Warner put his phone away, along with the faint smile on his face. Looking up at the person in charge across from him, he said, "The proposal is feasible, I have no objections. Let’s talk about the rest once the design draft is out."
As night gradually devoured the remnants of the sunset, Audrey Sutton hit the send button on her email, stretched in her chair, and finally completed her tasks for the week.
She got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the hustle and bustle on the street below.
Audrey Sutton tapped open X, saw the " 1 follower" symbol, checked it out, and found it was a small account nad "Sutton2719," seemingly a randomly suggested na from the system due to a common na.
Hearing a noise from outside, Audrey Sutton imdiately got up and left the room, seeing Shane Warner enter with two boxes in his hands.
"So well-behaved today? Staying in the room all this ti?"
Audrey Sutton: "I have work too, you know?"
Shane Warner’s mind imdiately jumped to the thought of a bunny becoming a handso man: "Drawing smut all day?"
"And were you flirting with your little secretary all day?"
Shane Warner took off his suit jacket, loosened his tie, and looked at her with a smile that was not quite a smile, asking, "Do you really take for a gigolo?"
"To be honest, with your looks, you’d probably earn quite a bit."
Shane Warner smiled and moved closer to her, supporting one hand on the cabinet next to her head, leaning in with a low, seductive voice: "Are you implying you want to hire ?"
Audrey Sutton was taken aback, blushing as she pushed him away: "The distinguished Third Young Master of The Warner, I can’t afford you."
There was a hint of rogue charm in Shane Warner’s smile that wasn’t usually there: "First night on the job, there’s a promotion, first experience free."
Although Audrey Sutton could share dirty jokes with her girlfriends, she beca timid around n, blushing to the tips of her ears.
Seeing her shy deanor, Shane Warner’s smile took on an extra layer of satisfaction. Then, he placed the two boxes he had brought on the living room table and said to Audrey Sutton, "Enough teasing, I brought you sothing to eat. Go ahead and eat, I’ll take a shower."
Audrey Sutton thought he had forgotten about dinner, but surprisingly, he rembered to bring back sothing delicious for her.
Up to now, she felt that Shane Warner treated her quite well, but that kind of goodness didn’t feel like the love between lovers; rather, it felt like the care of an elder for a younger family mber.
In simple terms, Audrey Sutton felt like she had gained a brother.
Marriage seed to have brought her and Shane Warner closer, but in reality, there was still a long way to go to truly establish their relationship as a married couple, and Audrey Sutton felt she still had a long way to go.
Halfway through the al, Shane Warner erged from his room.
He was still in his silk robe, holding an empty wine glass as he approached the lounge’s liquor cabinet, selecting a bottle of red wine.
Watching him open the wine and pour it into the glass, Audrey Sutton noticed not the purplish-red wine, nor his long, well-defined fingers that could satisfy hand admirers’ desires, but the silver ring on his left index finger.
He seed to always have that ring on. She rembered noticing it during the ring exchange at their wedding.
It looked very ordinary, with no decorations on the band, but the fact that he never took it off must an it held so significance for him.
As he walked over with the wine glass and sat on the sofa beside Audrey Sutton, he picked up the remote and turned on the TV.
It was on a foreign news channel, all in French, which Audrey Sutton couldn’t understand at all.
"Shane Warner." She called his na.
Shane Warner turned his head silently toward her.
Audrey Sutton’s gaze fell on his ring, asking, "Why don’t you wear the wedding ring?"
Shane Warner glanced at her bare fingers and countered, "Why don’t you wear it?"
Audrey Sutton: "It’s inconvenient for drawing, and... the ring is too big, it doesn’t fit well."
The latter was the main point.
Shane Warner said, "I draw too, and it’s inconvenient to wear it."
Audrey Sutton promptly asked, "So what’s that on your left hand?"
Seeing Audrey Sutton’s concerned look, Shane Warner knew she probably suspected it was a gift from another woman, secretly feeling jealous, so he mildly responded, "It’s my brother’s ring. He wore it all the ti when he was alive."
Audrey Sutton imdiately understood, her gaze showing a hint of remorse.
She lowered her head, pondering as she ate her al, seemingly wanting to ask sothing but not knowing how to start.
"Want to go for a walk tonight? The night view is pretty nice around here." Shane Warner changed the subject, breaking the long silence.
Audrey Sutton was naturally willing, nodding and then headed to her room to retrieve the clothes she had bought and handed them to him, saying, "Try them on to see if the size fits. If not, we can take it to exchange later."
After handing him the bag, Audrey Sutton added nervously, "If you don’t like the style, you can also exchange it."
Watching Shane Warner take the clothes out of the bag, she was sure he would dislike the stripes and refuse, but he showed no unusual reaction, even undoing the belt of his robe in front of Audrey to change.
Audrey Sutton was montarily stunned, then realized he was about to change clothes, and imdiately turned her back, walking towards her room: "I’ll go put on so makeup, call when you’re done."
When Audrey Sutton ca out of the room again, Shane Warner had already changed, sitting on the sofa, watching TV, waiting for her.
Audrey Sutton glanced over, thinking he might not like stripes, but the suit looked excellent on him. Mainly because he was handso and well-built, he could probably make even a sheet look good.
Although she was quite pleased, Audrey Sutton still worriedly asked, "How is it? Do you like it?"
He turned off the TV, stood up, glanced over her, and lightly nodded, "Not bad, but the skirt is a bit short."
Realizing he misunderstood, Audrey Sutton quickly corrected, "I ant the suit."
He raised an eyebrow slightly, asking back, "Do you like it?"
Audrey Sutton hesitated for a mont, then nodded, "I think it looks really good."
"That’s fine then, it fits well."
Audrey Sutton suddenly felt like she had defeated Lan Irving this ti, her mood lifted imdiately: "Then let’s go."
Shane Warner slightly frowned, "Go change the skirt."
Audrey Sutton looked down at the skirt she was wearing: "It’s the only outfit I brought."
"Then wear the pants from yesterday."
"They’re washed and not dry yet."
"Then wear a longer coat."
Audrey Sutton: "... Didn’t bring one."
Shane Warner sighed helplessly, saying in a muffled voice, "Let’s go."
