Chapter 1182 But Seth managed to hold her back. “I’ll go to the lounge and ride it out.” “Are you sure?” “Yeah.” Seeing his absolute certainty, Noreen reluctantly backed down, though she insisted on walking him to the lounge herself. Even after returning to the banquet hall, her heart was

Chapter 1177 Thanks to Seth’s masterful guidance, dinner turned out to be a success. Noreen happily planted a kiss on Seth’s cheek. Seth scooped her up and carried her to the sofa. The apartment was small and didn’t have a dining room, so they usually ate at the low coffee

Chapter 1175 Omniva Group. Inside Dylan’s office, staff hurried in and out, frantically arranging things. No one knew what their boss was up to. They only knew he hadn’t stopped smiling all morning. That was when Jude Wilder strolled in. He still held a small amount of shares in Omniva
Chapter 1174 “Do you think the insomnia is scarier, or is he scarier?” Jordan countered. Katy had no argument for that. Insomnia was definitely worse! When someone was driven to the absolute edge by lack of sleep, fear stopped registering. All they craved was rest. That night, at midnight. Katy
Chapter 1173 He was just incredibly cold. No one had ever seen him smile. He rarely spoke, either. Katy had met him five or six times, and their entire interaction consisted solely of eye contact. Not even a nod. After Sage Joyner picked Katy up, they headed toward the hotel.
Chapter 1172 “Miss Gilmore, do you miss me that much? Listening to me breathe for a whole minute and you still refuse to hang up?” Noreen’s ears burned instantly, her heart hammering against her ribs. She had clearly been waiting for him to speak first, but the way he spun
Chapter 1171 Everyone present was smart enough not to ask too many questions. The meal proceeded in harmony.

Chapter 1167 Seth tilted his head back slightly, his Adam’s apple bobbing violently as if swallowing down some unspeakable thirst. His breathing was chaotic. Plumes of white fog escaped his lips in rapid bursts into the frigid air, blurring the sharp, tense lines of his jaw. Noreen was stunned by
Chapter 1166 Jude blinked. “Leaving already? We barely started.” The only answer he got was the merciless slam of the door. At the end of the corridor, Dylan lit a cigarette, its crimson cherry flaring in the shadows. He pulled out his phone, the glowing screen illuminating his hardened profile.
Chapter 1165 His embrace was scorching hot. But before Noreen could truly process it, Seth let go, gently pushing her back to create distance between them. “It’s cold tonight. Go on up,” he said. Noreen didn’t feel cold at all. Besides, she wanted to stay with him a little longer.
