Chapter 854

Duncan had learned from his conversation with Mireille earlier that

Larry was her college classmate. After graduating, Larry has been

helping out at the Tanner Group Pharmacy. Mireille admitted that

Larry had been pursuing her, but she considered him only as a

brother. Now that his men had crippled Larry, Duncan was sure that Mireille would be angry.

“Boss… I…”

“Never mind, she’ll be mine soon anyway. Use your brain more in the future!” Duncan angrily hung up the phone.

At that moment, Mireille’s phone screen lit up beside the pillow.

Duncan picked up the phone and tried to unlock it. Surprisingly, there was no password set. It was a text message from Brian: [Mireille, come back quickly. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have scolded you!]

Duncan closed the message, checked the call logs, and found no significant contact between Mireille and Nash’s side. When he investigated Mireille secretly back then, he found out that she ha visited Royal Bay twice to deliver herbs but quickly left afterward.

Leaning against the headboard, Duncan went through Mireille’s photo

album. It contained many sensual photos of Mireille, but they were

not explicit. Looking at Mireille’s gentle and sweet smile, Duncan gently closed his eyes.

The bathroom door opened. Duncan immediately exited the photo

gallery and placed the phone back in its original position.

Chapter 251

Wrapped in a towel, Mireille shyly made her way toward the bed. Her pure white shoulders were exposed and resembled flawless marble under the gentle light. Biting her lip, she slowly opened her arms. The towel slipped to the floor.

Duncan’s head felt like it had exploded at the sight of her perfect

body. How was her figure so flawless? There was no hint of excess

flesh on her slender waist and the skin was so delicate. The woman

before him was beyond what perfection was.

The man’s gaze upon her was intense. He swallowed hard and pulled. Mireille onto the bed, pouncing on her like a ravenous beast.

It was… a night of passionate indulgence.

The next day, morning sunlight shone through the curtain’s seams, illuminating Mireille’s face. They were marked with tear stains.

She slowly opened her eyes, and her once clear and vibrant gaze appeared unusually dim. The warmth and sweetness that used to

grace her face were now replaced with a coldness.

Duncan’s arm that was draped over her tightened slightly. Mireille’s expression softened as she turned toward him and gently kissed his

lips. Then, she nestled in his embrace like a little cat.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly as he held the soft, fragrant

beauty in his arms. “Want to sleep a bit more?” he asked lazily, voice

magnetic.

The woman in his arms trembled slightly before she lifted her head to glance at Duncan. She quickly looked back down, her voice as soft as

she whispered, “You… you’re awake too?”

Her voice was delightful, tender, charming, and ever so slightly

enchanting. It was clear and loud yet gentle and soft. Coupled with the shy expression on her face, Duncan’s desire flared up instantly.

Feeling the warmth on her legs, Mireille blushed so hard as if the

veins in her face had burst.

Breath hot and quick, Duncan hoarsely asked, “Mireille, can we go

another round?”

Now he finally understood the meaning of the ancient poem: [Short is

the night, high the sun at dawn; henceforth the emperor need not rise

early].

Mireille bit her lip, her gaze extremely complicated. “Last night, we

both drank too much…”

“But I am sincere. Now you are my woman, I will treat you well for the

rest of my life!” Duncan held Mireille’s smooth body tightly as he

professed with the utmost sincerity.

“You doubted me last night, didn’t you?” Mireille replied with a touch.

of sadness.
