Natalie raised her head, gazed deeply at him, and said, "If it's because... I can..."
Billy rubbed between his eyebrows gently with his hand, pressed his hands on her shoulders, and tucked her in, "Don't think too much. The project is indeed imminent."
Natalie nodded. After saying good night, she closed her eyes.
Billy went to the next room. The curtains were open. H e stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and smoked, without reading the documents.
After dinner, it was already ten o'clock.
In summer it became dark at eight o'clock, while in winter it became dark at six o'clock. By ten o'clock it was already particularly dark.
Luke had already settled the bill. It was very cold outside the restaurant.
Kingsley drove to the restaurant. However, Luke didn't drive a car. At this time, it was difficult to stop a cab.
Luke said, "My wife is visiting her mother. She took the kid with her. I'm alone tonight. I don't want to go
back home. I'll go to Kingsley's villa."
Sherman said, "I can take a cab home. You can drive back to the villa."
However, Kingsley insisted on taking her home.
When a gentle and gentlemanly man became aggressive and domineering, there was nothing a woman could do.
Sherman said, "My apartment and your villa are in opposite directions. If you send me back and then go back to the villa, it will take an hour or even more time. You don't need to do that."
Kingsley raised his wrist to look at the time, stared at her, and said, "It's half past ten. Do you think I would let you stand here alone and stop a cab?"
Sherman knew that he wouldn't agree!
It would be a waste of time to continue standing here. So she sighed helplessly and got in the car.
Kingsley sat in the driver's seat, while Luke sat in the passenger seat. Sherman sat in the back seat.
Because Luke was there, of course they couldn't be as a t ease as before.
