Just as she was concerned about her hips, Lucian emerged from the shower, causing her heart to skip a beat.
“You should get some rest. The last two days have been exhausting.” Lucian came over and pecked her on her lips.
Before Roxanne could react, Lucian raised his brows slightly. “However, if you want it, I'm more than happy to satisfy you.”
His words caused Roxanne's cheeks to burn as she tried to bury herself underneath the blanket.
Soon, when the sound of the hair dryer came to a stop, Lucian pulled up the sheets from another side. Upon getting into bed, he pulled her into his arms and fell into a deep slumber.
That night, both of them had a good night's sleep.
When Roxanne woke up the next morning, she felt fully reinvigorated.
It was then that Lucian received a call from Jonathan.
As Lucian was still in the bathroom, Roxanne pondered a moment before deciding to pick up.
“Jonathan, what can I do for you so early in the morning?”
A look of surprise flashed across Jonathan's face when he heard her voice. “Roxanne?”
Before she could react, he asked tactfully, “Is this a bad time? Where's Lucian?”
Without thinking, Roxanne replied softly, “He's showering. What is it?”
Showering?
As his imagination began to run wild, Jonathan quickly suppressed his thoughts and explained earnestly, “I just wanted to let you know that the first batch of medicinal herbs has arrived. I'm currently at the port. Do you want to come over to examine them?”
The news surprised Roxanne. “That's quick.”
