"You just said you’d stay with for a lifeti, and now you can’t stand it?" He raised an eyebrow, a hint of disdain on his face, looking at her.
"..." Sumr Shawcross’s expression changed slightly at his words.
Although she initially felt she was justified, at this mont... inexplicably... she felt guilty inside.
She was stunned for a few seconds, and then, with a slightly flushed face, she bit her lip and reached out towards his waist.
"Sumr, I just asked you to support !" Yet at that mont, the man’s deep voice suddenly sounded.
Upon hearing this, her hand paused in mid-air, her whole body stiffened, a look of astonishnt on her face.
He raised an eyebrow, looking down at her flushed cheeks, with a playful look in his eyes.
"Or do you want to do sothing else?" He curled his thin lips into a smile, intentionally asking her.
As his voice fell, Sumr’s body stiffened, her face suddenly turned a shade of green and red...
Terribly embarrassed!
"Why didn’t you make it clear!" She bit her lip, complaining with discontent, but her cheeks were already blazing red, and her eyes avoided eting his deep ones.
"You didn’t ask." Noah Drexler raised an eyebrow, wearing a matter-of-fact expression.
"You..." Sumr bit her lip, sowhat angrily, and then simply ignored him, turning and walking out the door.
Shortly after, the bathroom door was slamd shut, making a loud noise, fully reflecting her anger at the mont.
Noah Drexler curled his lips into a smile, his handso face full of joy.
...
When Sumr Shawcross ca out of the bathroom, her face was red and angry, almost considering poisoning Noah Drexler’s congee.
But eventually, she changed her mind, continuously reminding herself that he was her husband, and if she poisoned him, she’d be widowed! Only then did she dismiss the thought!
...
Two weeks later.
Sumr Shawcross had been staying at the hospital with Noah Drexler, taking care of him and being the best wife she could be. His injuries healed quickly, though his leg was still in a cast and he couldn’t walk freely.
During this period, Sumr thought things through very clearly; at the mont Noah Drexler was briefly unconscious from his injury, she had figured it all out.
She regretted her brother’s situation, so... she couldn’t let anything happen to Noah Drexler.
Sumr went back to the villa to fetch so things and had just returned to the hospital. As she was about to enter the room from the top-floor corridor, Sean Morgan handed her a stack of envelopes.
"Madam, these are photos of the boss’s properties in Hespera."
Upon hearing this, Sumr lowered her head and took the thick envelope, unexpectedly heavy.
She opened the envelope and pulled out a stack of photos from inside.
She was sowhat surprised, having not expected Noah Drexler to own so many properties. Just in Hespera, there were over a dozen apartnts and villas.
As Sumr was looking at the photos, Sean Morgan’s puzzled voice followed.
"Madam, are you planning to go to Hespera soon?"
He was confused about why she suddenly wanted him to find these photos of houses in Hespera.
"It’s not just , it’s us," Sumr said, curling her lips suddenly.
"Including the boss?" Sean Morgan looked surprised, as the boss hadn’t planned to travel out of town recently.
Seeing Sean Morgan’s confusion, Sumr Shawcross smiled.
"Not right now."
Then she added another sentence.
"But it should be soon."
