Moving in his seat, Mason reached out to grasp Janet’s ankle all of a sudden. “Where?” He looked up
at her intently while pointing at her ankle and asking in a low voice, “Here?”She was stunned. Who
would have thought that he would massage her leg for her?This is so awkward…He glanced at her
then muttered, “The shoes might not be a good fit for you. I’ll get someone to make you a pair
later.”She kept her lips pressed into a straight line.As the car drove further away, she became tense
again.His cold hands against her leg felt surprisingly comforting. He moved gently, as though he was
caressing a precious gemstone.“Does it feel better now?” His profound gaze met hers.“Y-Yeah… It
feels a lot better now!” She let out a smile. Her eyes glimmered as though there was an infinite number
of stars in them.While he looked at her, it felt like a hole could burn right through her. She looked up at
him after a moment of hesitation and he tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.Her face started to blush
and her voice sounded forced. “I…”“What’s wrong? Where does it hurt?” His eyebrows shot up as he
asked in a concerned voice.Red Python and Black Python did not cast a single glance in the backseat
out of fear that they might stumble upon an unwanted sight.They did not want to look to save
themselves.“I want to go back!” Janet stated. There was a hint of uneasiness in her voice that was
undetectable.After giving it some thought, she noted that Mason would normally take her home right
away if she did not feel well. But today, he questioned her and even massaged her leg for her. It was
definitely not the usual protocol. “It won’t affect you!” Mason chuckled. “If you can’t walk, I’ll carry
you.”Such a blunt statement, yet it made her ears turn red.Beast! He’s an utter beast!Her heart started
beating rapidly, but deep down, she was unhappy with him.Rolling her eyes at him, she got up and
placed her face right by his ear. The corners of her pink lips lifted and she drawled, “It hurts there! I just
want to go home.”Her words were to the point but it made his eyes grow more profound. In a low and
shaky voice, he asked, “There?”“Yes,” she muttered then turned her reddened face out the
window.During the whole ride, her hands were placed over her stomach and she looked like she was in
pain.Putting the deal with the MX aside, he drove her straight back to Lowry Residence and ordered
the housekeeper to make her some brown sugar ginger tea.Being under his watchful gaze, she
reluctantly took a few sips of tea.When she was about to put the cup down, she looked up to find that
he was standing right in front of her.It was as if he would not leave if he did not see her finish that cup
of tea.“Don’t you have a negotiation to go to?” Her eyes flickered up at him.She did her best to find a
reasonable excuse but it only backfired on her.Now, she had to drink that big bowl of bitter : owner of this content.
substance.“Nothing is more important than you!” Their eyes met. “Tens of billions can’t compare to how
much you are worth to me.”His words left her dumbfounded. A warm, fuzzy feeling started to grow in
her chest that made her feel pure bliss.A moment later, she wrapped her frail hands around his neck.
After smiling at him, she pressed her lips against his.His eyes widened in an instant. Holding the back
of her head, he gave her a passionate kiss. “You should get back to work. I can take care of myself,”
she stated in a vague tone with an eyebrow raised at him.
