Upon seeing the photo, Mabel immediately beamed and said, “Very good! Very good. It seems my arrangement was not a mistake.”
“Have their feelings for each other deepened?” Elijah asked.
Mabel immediately said with a hint of pride. “Of course. When I arranged for the two of them to go to the hot spring resort, it wasn’t just for them to simpl

“Auri is a good child. Hannah’s judgment is never wrong,” said Elijah, his expression serious.
The two elders had weathered a lifetime of challenges, yet even then, there were still many things beyond their control.
What they could do was to accomplish everything that needed to be done. As for the rest, they had to let the younger generation find their own way, step
After taking the photo, the task was completed
Aurelia immediately stood up, aware of her actions, and returned to her previous position to sit down.
Just as Matthew put down his phone, he saw Aurelia avoiding him as if he were a plague. She had chosen the spot furthest from him to settle down, whi
In fact, a wave of indescribable agitation even welled up within him.
Aurelia found a comfortable position, leaning her head back just right. She closed her eyes in contentment, savoring the rare moments of tranquility.
She completely ignored Matthew.
She thought he probably couldn’t wait for her to be far, far away.
The area was lined with terraced mansions, each one connected to the next. Every hot spring pool was partitioned off, ensuring that each was a private
If one were to speak, as long as the surroundings were quiet, one could hear what others were saying.
Suddenly, waves of sounds that made one’s face flush and heart race could be heard.
They thought the sound was most probably coming from the mansion next to theirs.
The sound wasn’t heard as distinctly, yet one could discern what action had produced it.
Aurelia suddenly blushed.

presence of Matthew made it awkward.
When she opened her eyes, she found Matthew was also looking at her.

Aurelia found Matthew’s complexion indescribably grave, his gaze even more so, dark and terrifying.
In such a situation, other young couples might have already lost control of themselves and made love.
However, when it came to her and him, Aurelia couldn’t help but blush. She had been soaking for about ten minutes or so. After spending a long time in I’m tired. I’ll go back to rest first.”
Matthew watched as Aurelia fled in panic, his eyebrows raised in intrigue.
Realizing that from earlier until then, he had been somewhat moved, he immediately furrowed his brows.
As Aurelia had just reached the door, she suddenly heard a woman’s uncontrollable, delicate cry. “Oh, Mr. Hoffman! I love you so much…”
The sound was somewhat intermittent, making it hard to discern clearly.
However, Aurelia was certain about the name she heard. Mr. Hoffman!
Right away, she halted in her tracks.
Recalling the day at the bar when Nancy spoke to her, Aurelia realized that sometimes a woman’s intuition. could be incredibly accurate. Those around t
With that in mind, Aurelia furrowed her brows.
She then reflected on her past encounters with Justin. He cares a lot about Nancy, right? Therefore, it must be just a coincidence.
When Matthew saw Aurelia suddenly stop, his expression darkened. What is she doing?
The incessant sounds kept echoing in his ears, inexplicably stirring restlessness in his heart.
Seeing Aurelia still standing motionless at the door, he suddenly realized something. Is she waiting for me?
The ripples in Matthew’s heart faded away when he thought about the intentions Aurelia might have. He picked up a cup from the side and took a few sip to provoke me? © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“What’s up with you?” Matthew asked, his voice icy cold.
The icy voice was like the wind in the night, and Aurelia suddenly felt a wave of chills before she came back to her senses.

Looking back at Matthew, she replied, “I just suddenly thought of something. It’s nothing. Good night.”
She immediately grabbed a towel that was nearby, wrapped it around herself, and quickly returned to the mansion before returning to her room.
After taking a bath and drying her hair, she prepared to rest.
However, no sooner had she lain down than she felt a bit thirsty.
There was no water in the room. Having just soaked in the hot spring, she had sweated a bit. Hence, she needed to get rehydrated.
She pushed the door open and walked out to look for the refrigerator.
The refrigerator was stocked with beverages and water, even wine was included.
She usually didn’t fancy drinks like milkshakes, so she chose a bottle of mineral water instead.
She then closed the refrigerator, twisted open a bottle of mineral water, and took a few sips.
The thirst was immediately quenched.
Just as she was about to turn around, sh

In her panic, she took a step back.
However, someone had already wrapped their arms around her waist.
In the dim light, Aurelia collided with a pair of profound eyes. “Mr. Quigley!”
Aurelia was startled. How did he manage to appear behind me so silently? Also, did I just bump into his chest.
muscles?
“Why are you here?” she asked.
Matthew released his hold around her waist.
The clothes she wore to sleep were all loose–fitting, not revealing even a hint of her figure. Had he not just seen her in a bikini, he wouldn’t have known how good her figure actually was.
Her waist was truly slender.
“I’m here to get some water.” Matthew’s voice was somewhat heavy.
Aurelia nodded, taking a step to the side. “There’s still water inside. I–I’ll go upstairs first.”
Matthew glanced at her. “Hmm.7
Just as Aurelia had taken a few steps out, Matthew called out to stop her.
“Do you still have feelings for your ex–boyfriend?” Matthew asked.

She said with a hint of coldness in her voice. “As you said, Mr. Quigley, he’s an ex–boyfriend of mine.”
Aurelia was certain Curtis didn’t deserve a place in her heart. For all I care, that sc*mbag might as well be dead.
Matthew raised an eyebrow, understanding that the more one cherished someone, the deeper the hatred would be when faced with that person’s betray
Realizing this, Matthew pulled out a cigarette.
