Chapter 1041
After bidding farewell to the others, Ryan hurried home with a sense
of urgency.
He had been holding back these past few days, presenting himself as
a stoic man who disregarded matters of love and affection in front of
others. But in private, when no one else was around, he would wrap
himself in a blanket and repeatedly scroll through the intimate photos
of him and Carrie. Sometimes, he would even find himself on the
verge of tears from missing her too much.
With his beloved girlfriend out of reach, Ryan felt deeply aggrieved.
His appetite waned, and he struggled to sleep, nearing the point of
exhaustion.
Earlier, the playful banter between Justin and Bella had ignited a
raging fire within him. It was unbearably agonizing.
As night descended, the sky became a canvas painted with countless
twinkling stars.
In the days when Ryan was absent, the temperature in Savrow rose
rapidly. Even the plants in the courtyard began to stir with the
anticipation of spring.
For five consecutive days, Ryan had been absent without any news.
Although Yasmin was worried, she dared not contact him privately.
She worried so much that she lost her appetite and could not focus
on anything she did…
Every day, she devoted herself to two tasks: caring for her adorable young madam and eagerly awaiting her boss’s return.
Tonight, Yasmin remained dressed heatly, standing outside the door.
She had a strong feeling that Ryan would return victorious soon. Perhaps it would be tonight. Even if not tonight, surely by tomorrow.
Just then, a white sports car resembling a lightning bolt slicing through the night approached from a distance.
The screeching brakes pierced the air as the car came to a halt in
front of her.
Seeing Ryan emerge unscathed and striding confidently toward her, Yasmin felt overwhelmed with emotion. Her hands trembled as she
tightly held onto him.
“Young Master, you’re finally back.”
“Why are you standing at the door so late at night?”
Ryan glanced at Yasmin, his eyes widening in surprise. “You weren’t standing here waiting for me every day, were you?”
“No. I just couldn’t sleep tonight, so came outside for some fresh a to clear my mind. It’s just a coincidence that you’ve returned.”
Yasmin smiled, though she did not disclose the truth.
Her feelings for Ryan were deep, but she had always kept them
hidden from him.
“What about Carrie? Is she asleep?” Ryan asked nervously.

“Yes, Young Madam is asleep. She fell asleep not long ago.”
Ryan’s shoulder slumped with disappointment. “Gosh… I rushed back as fast as I could, even pushing the accelerator to the limit, but I still couldn’t make it in time!”
He knew his beloved girlfriend loved to sleep and was a sleeping beauty through and through.
If it had not been for him pestering her every night with kisses and cuddles, keeping her from going to bed early, they probably would not have been able to do anything intimate until daytime.
Yasmin smiled wryly. “It’s okay, Young Master. At least now you don’t have to stare at Young Madam’s photos yearningly, suffering from
lovesickness.”
Well, she was not wrong.
