The comer snorted disdainfully. With a big hand, he pulled the shattered dress over her, covering her naked body. He then scooped her up and disappeared into the corridor.
In her dream, Kate felt as if she were floating in the clouds, amidst a sea of blossoms in April. The cold, moist rain fell on her body. As the clouds floated by, she held onto their softness, but was taken aback when they suddenly became scorching hot.
The next moment, it transformed into an unparalleled handsome man. She didn't have time to see his appearance, but she remembered the broad chest and solid shoulders that gave her an endless sense of security.
When the raindrops touched her lips, they became fierce and impatient. The alluring and lingering dream only faded slowly with the coming dawn.
Clutching the blanket, she foolishly looked at the bruises on her body. She... what did she do last night...
In a daze, she walked into the office, only to hear that Mr. Mccray had been rushed to the hospital due to a sudden illness last night.
Judging from the timing, it couldn't have been Mr. Mccray.
Could it have been Master Glenn?
But he hadn't been back for two days.
Thinking of this, Kate couldn't help but wrap herself tightly in the blanket, silent tears rolling down her face.
As she cried, she fell asleep.
This time, the dream became even more lengthy, and she could clearly see the man's body.
Slender, exquisite, his touch was as cold as ice silk. His strong hands wrapped around her waist, and his tall figure completely enveloped her.
He kissed her lips, savoring every inch, nibbling gently on her earlobe, causing her body to tremble. He chuckled softly.
Lowering his head, he gently kissed away the tears at the corner of her eyes, blowing a seductive breath into her ear. "Do you miss me that much? Hmm?"
"Mmm... no, no... don't..."
"Master Glenn! You're back!" Kate suddenly opened her eyes, struggling to sit up on the bed. The tears that had just stopped flowed down like a river bursting its banks.
Where has he been these past few days? Does he know what almost happened to her last night...
Naturally, Master Glenn was angry that she had actually gone to meet another man and almost put herself in a vulnerable position. But seeing her tears, his heart softened.
He reached out his long arm and pulled her into his embrace, his voice unconsciously becoming gentler. "Okay, stop crying. It was me last night."
"You scared me."
"Who told you not to look for me? Actually... I've been waiting for you to come."
The dynamic between them had always been him actively pursuing her, while Kate had always been the one forced to accept. The night before last, he went a bit too far, tormenting her all night, and then he hid in his office the next day, wanting to ignore her and see if she would take the initiative to come and apologize.
Who knew she would be so foolish and stubborn, keeping quiet about everything that happened, insisting on carrying the burden alone, and even meeting with his arch-enemy, almost getting herself into trouble.
Master Glenn couldn't wait any longer. If he had appeared even a little later, Kate might have really fallen into the tiger's den.
Kate listened in a daze, raising her head like a silly ostrich and looking at him. Her voice, full of guilt, stuttered, "You... you've been following me all this time? So..."
"Mhm."
"Even on the night of the banquet?"
