Interrogating the Assistant

編輯: Henyee Translations

The fact that she was still alive put Aren at ease. He quietly looked at Jocelyn's sleeping face for a while and finally picked up his phone. After sending a message to tell Luke to not come back so soon, he turned his phone into a vibration mode and placed it aside. He then crawled to the other side of the bed.

Strangely, lying in bed with a woman he kind of liked, the first thought that came to Aren's mind was not to possess her, but to protect her.

Just lying beside Jocelyn and smelling her made Aren feel satisfied. It had been a long time since he had enjoyed such happiness, and it was as if time had returned to his teenage years.

Aren reached out to hold Jocelyn's hand. Looking at their interlaced fingers, Aren smiled and closed his eyes too.

Aren's work had always been intense. Last night, he only slept for four hours before getting up to deal with the company's matters. Halfway through his work, he ran out to find Jocelyn.
