As Selena Kensington erged from the bathroom, Sterling Norwood’s breath montarily faltered.
Selena was wearing a very simple swimsuit, a plain white piece adorned with a few patterns.
Nothing else.
Yet, it was this extrely simple swimsuit that highlighted her body, making it seem even more fair and tender.
His breathing grew gradually heavier.
At first, Selena was a bit shy, but then she gradually beca puzzled. Why was Sterling so silent?
She tentatively lifted her head, and was caught in the depths of Sterling’s eyes.
His gaze grew more profound and enigmatic, staring intently at her.
Selena even suspected she was about to be devoured by him in the next second.
Standing at the door, she was already a bit frightened, "I think I’d better..."
Sure enough, she shouldn’t wear it!
Before she could finish her sentence, Sterling quickly walked over.
Selena widened her eyes, not having ti to react before Sterling scooped her up around the waist.
"We’ll talk on the bed."
"!! You need to be clear-headed, it’s still dayti!"
Selena struggled.
Sterling paused, looking out the window.
The sun had already set behind the mountains, and the sky was gradually darkening.
There were even a few stars twinkling above.
"..."
Realizing it was already dark, Selena fell silent.
But she remained undeterred, wanting to continue struggling.
However, in the next second, she was placed on the bed by Sterling.
He tugged at his tie and looked at Selena, saying, "For every word, I’ll add once more."
"!!!"
You’ve turned bad, puppy!

The next day, Selena woke up.
Vaguely recalling the ambiguous confusion of last night, Selena felt a pang of regret.
How could she have been so lacking in principles!
Later, she and Sterling had lunch in Serena City, then strolled around a bit more before heading to the airport with Sterling.
They boarded a private plane to head to the Isle of Cyrin.
The flight from Serena City to the Isle of Cyrin took about an hour, so Selena didn’t bother to rest.
Instead, she flipped through magazines on the plane.
Suddenly curious, she asked Sterling, "Ajing, who are you introducing to?"
"Hughes Leon."
Selena didn’t know this person, but as soon as she heard "Leon," she understood.
A hereditary noble family in The E-Nation, the Leon family.
Rumor had it that this family had close ties with the cabinet of The E-Nation, and they were also one of the top shipbuilding families in the world.
Centuries ago, the founder of the Leon family built the family’s prominence with his shipbuilding skills, earning them a noble title personally granted by the queen of The E-Nation.
Sterling’s mother was from the Leon family.
So this Hughes Leon must be Sterling’s cousin.
He was on the Isle of Cyrin and had invited them to the luxury yacht, the Santa Maria.
Could it be... was the Santa Maria built by the Leon family?
"He is your..."
Selena voiced her inquiry.
Sterling answered her, "Cousin."
Selena’s eyes widened slightly, realizing that apart from Silas Sinclair, there was also Hughes Leon among Sterling’s close peers.
The private plane landed at the Isle of Cyrin’s airport.
As soon as Selena got off the plane, she saw a blonde-haired, blue-eyed man approaching.
In her dazed state, the man gave her a hug.
Originally, he seed to want to kiss Selena’s cheek but was stopped by Sterling’s voice from behind, "Hughes."
His calm tone was filled with a stern warning.
