Lily smiles and nods, "Don't think too much. It's getting late. Go back and rest."
Only then does Fanny get up and leave the study.
Seeing Fanny disappear at the door, Lily helplessly turns around and looks at the man who keeps silent
from beginning to end, "Why didn't you say anything just now?"
"I thought you handled it very well. I don't like to interrupt while women are talking?" Rex remains
expressionless and focuses on his work with his head lowered down.
Lily can't help but look sideways at him. "Don't you have anything to say?"
"Me?" Rex stops the pen in his hand and smiles as he looks at her. "What do you mean?"
"Fanny has worked for us for so many years. She is upright and kind. She is also very reassuring. Now
she is thinking of leaving because she is afraid that it will be inconvenient for us. Don't you feel
touched?" On his face, she can't see any signs of sentiment.
"Or are you men all like this?"
"Like what?"
"Just ... don't take it to heart."
Hearing what she says, Rex is amused. He laughs, "Are you saying that I'm heartless?"
" ... I didn't mean that."
The man stands up from his chair, walks up to her and whispers, "Have you finished your work?"
Lily smells the refreshing smell of shampoo from his body. After getting along with him for such a long
time, she can tell what he is thinking with just a single glance. She swallows her saliva and says,
"Almost done."
Sure enough, in the next second, she is hugged. And she can feel his strong arms resting on her
buttocks. She weighs more than 45 kilograms, but to Rex, she is as light as a feather.
He can even free up a hand to open the door, "Let's go back to the bedroom. You will know how
passionate I am."
"..." Lily shyly dodges, "That's not what I meant!"
"But I mean it."
...
It is already late at night, but on the other side of the city, Eunice has yet to return to the villa. Ever
since she recovered and was discharged from the hospital, she has stayed in a villa of Ryan's.
She did not agree at the first place, but he insisted. So she agreed in the end.
She has been back to school and is slowly recovering. She takes time out every day for part-time jobs,
either in a coffee shop or in a design studio. These jobs are related to her major. Given that she is
going to be a junior, she wants to make preparations in advance.
She works too late tonight, so her immediate superior, Fabian, drives her back.
Fabian has always known that she is a very frugal and simple girl. So when they arrive at the entrance
of the villa, Fabian looks a little strange.
Actually ... she is from such a wealthy family?
He knows that the villas in this area are newly built. People who can afford a villa here must be super
rich, each worth more than 10 billion.
Noticing the surprised expression on the man's face, Eunice does not hide anything. "My boyfriend
lives here."
Fabian is even more surprised, "You have a boyfriend?"
"Yes."
Hearing that, Fabian thinks of something and frowned. He looks at her with something hidden in his
eyes. "How come you have never mentioned it before?"
"I don't have a chance to talk about it at work." If it was in the past, Eunice would definitely try to hide it.
However, after the near-death experience, she cares less about others' thoughts. If she lies now, she
must tell more lies to cover this one. She doesn't do anything wrong, so there is nothing to hide.
Fabian feels very shocked. He lowers his head to look at the logo of his Volkswagen. Suddenly, he
feels that he is out of place with this area.
Actually, he is a little attracted by Eunice. As an intern, she is just as competent as regular employees.
This is due to her many years of part-time experience.
He drives her back today out of concern.
When he knows that she has a boyfriend who lives in such a wealthy area, he feels defeated and
inferior.
However, the wealthy people who live here should be quite old, right?
She is young and beautiful. Could it be that her boyfriend is actually an old man?
With that thought, Fabian asks, "Your boyfriend must be rich. How old is he?"
Eunice is still calm, "He's a little older than me."
When Fabian hears this, he immediately misunderstands. Since she says that her boyfriend is older
than her, he is definitely not young.
This is probably the case. From the moment he is suspicious, he already convicted her of the crime.
Fabian looks at her meaningfully, saying, "I didn't expect that as a college girl, you had already known
how to make life easier."
Eunice knows that Fabian has misunderstood. She has seen it coming. But no one can remain
indifferent to such apparent prejudice and contempt.
Just as she is about to reason with him, someone knocks twice on the passenger window....
...
A dull voice comes from above her head. Eunice is shocked. She hurriedly turns to look out of the
window. When she sees the man standing beside the window, she is even more shocked.
It is actually Ryan?!
Why does he come out?
Eunice hurriedly lowers the car window. The man is dressed in a light gray home clothes. His hair has
been washed and is now limply hanging in front of his forehead. His handsome features are even more
stereoscopic under the dizzy light of the street lamp. He bends down to look at Fabian beside him. He
looks unhappy. "It's so late at night. Why haven’t you gotten out of the car and come back?"
He is jealous.
Eunice blinks, "I work too late. So my colleague brings me back."
After saying that, she turns to Fabian and makes a brief introduction, "This is my boyfriend, Ryan."
Fabian is still immersed in his own narrow conjecture. Seeing Ryan's face, he is extremely shocked.
This man looks very attractive. With his handsome face and dominating aura, even if he is wearing a
home clothes, no one can move their eyes away from him.
He is not an old man. Instead, he is as handsome as movie stars.
Fabian is tongue-tied and can't even say a proper greeting. He stumbles as he says, "He ... Hello."
Ryan only glances at him, not even looking straight at him. He can only see Eunice. "It's getting late.
Let's go home."
Eunice puts away her bag and opens the car door. She turns around and politely thanks Fabian,
"Thank you for bringing me back. Goodbye."
Fabian is dumbfounded, "Al ... alright. Don't mention it. Goodbye."
Ryan doesn't want to hear the two talking. He can easily tell that this man is interested in Eunice. But
this man is way too inferior to him.
He bends down and takes the bag in Eunice's hand. He wraps his long arm around her shoulder and
walks towards the villa with her.
Fabian looks at their figures, one tall and one short, one muscular and one delicate. He feels that they
are incomparably matched.
Thinking of what he has said just now, he feels his face burning. No one is around, but he feels so
embarrassed that he wants to find a crack to drill into.
It's embarrassing to make such absurd guess. It's so embarrassing! Fortunately, he hasn't said
anything else, otherwise, he would be a big joke now....
Fabian restarts the car, hurriedly steps on the accelerator, and immediately leaves the
villas.
