I was afraid that if I did, she would uncover my mask, and everything would turn cold. I couldn’t resist removing her mask while she was in a deep sleep. As I gazed at her peaceful face, a mix of emotions welled up inside .
’Should I seek revenge on her? Or rather, did I really want to seek revenge on her?’
Since the day I t her, a strange thought had taken root in my mind: to possess her! In a way, I had indeed possessed her now. In fact, if I wanted, I could consu her entirely. But what then?
If I wanted to retaliate, I could have done so since the day she opened up her social circle. I could have easily shared those artistic photos of her, those portraits, and she would have been done for. And any one of those intimate videos of us could destroy her.
But I didn’t. Instead, I carefully protected them. All of this stemd from that unrealistic and evil thought deep within .
I must admit I have all the flaws typical of a man, but I can’t bring myself to let go. She was now in my arms, holding tightly. Would you willingly give up such a beauty to soone else? I couldn’t bear the idea. Just the thought of her being with soone else in the future made feel uneasy and frustrated. But why should I have her?
Just because I was well-endowed and charming? Because I understood won’s hearts? None of that!
What I said to her before was not only directed at her but also at myself. It was a promise and a warning to myself. This woman was not as despicable as I had thought; in fact, she was quite pitiful. It was easy to hurt her, but saving her is difficult.
If I couldn’t do what I promised, it was better to leave her early. You can be shaless as a person, but you shouldn’t abandon your principles, right? Yes, one must have principles in life.
Whether it was Kristina, Mary, Lily, or even Jessica, I wanted them all. The premise was, were you qualified? Did you have the ability? Deep down, I knew I currently lacked the ability.
Not having it now, I resolved to grow into a towering tree, earning respect and followers. I had a realization and felt enlightened.
While achieving this goal might be challenging, without aspirations, one would just be stagnant.
As long as I was active and ambitious, I would enjoy life, take charge, have fun, and attract attention.
A surge of pride filled my heart.
I planted a kiss on Jessica’s forehead and couldn’t resist taking a photo.
It was still early, so I closed my eyes briefly, cautious of falling into a deep sleep and fearful of oversleeping, as Jessica might wake up early and catch .
Before six o’clock, with the sky starting to lighten, I woke up, feeling my right hand already numb from being pressed on.
Looking at Jessica, sleeping soundly, I silently got out of bed and left a note on the bedside table. Instead of leaving imdiately, I called room service to bring up so breakfast.
At six-thirty, room service delivered the breakfast, which I placed on the bedside table before quietly leaving.
I left the Hilton hotel, quickly hailed a cab to go ho, and took another shower, feeling almost scrubbed raw.
But success lay in the details, so I would have to endure a bit of hardship.
At seven-thirty, I headed downstairs, bought breakfast, and took a taxi to the office.
In the car, Jessica sent a crying emoji.
Jessica: [Why didn’t you tell you were leaving?]
I replied: [You were sleeping so peacefully, I didn’t want to wake you. I left breakfast by your bedside and even left a note.]
Jessica: [Oh, I saw your face without the mask last night. You were even more beautiful than in the photo. I stayed up all night, unable to close my eyes.]
With that, I sent her the sneakily taken photo.
Low-key guy: [I’ve decided to use this as my lock screen.]
She responds with a shy and touched emoji.
Jessica: [Thank you, dear. I thought you would leave after seeing it.]
Low-key guy: [Silly, I adore you. How could I leave? But I got so really important work today, so..]
Jessica: [I understand.]
Low-key guy: [You better behave today. If you don’t, I won’t see you next ti.]
I half-jokingly, half-threateningly replied.
Jessica: [Dare you not see ? I’ll cry!]
Well, she was turning the tables with a threat!
I chatted with her as we made our way to the office, stashed the new phone in my bag, and retrieved my usual phone. Upon exiting the car and riding the elevator, I encountered lody once more. Her work routine was quite consistent, as she took this elevator around the sa ti every day.
I saw her, and she saw .
The elevator was packed, and Grace was among the passengers. When she spotted , Grace beckoned over. "William, co here: There is so room!"
A shiver ran down my spine as lody shot a nacing glare from the opposite corner. It was an unsettling mont. Usually, I would playfully tease Grace, but with lody’s gaze fixed on , I knew I had to behave.
"Do you notice anything different about today?" Grace asked.
I looked her up and down and replied, "Can’t see anything different."
She shot a look. "Take a closer look!"
I inspected her again and replied, "Still can’t see it."
She gestures for to lean in.
I touch my nose. "Let’s talk about it upstairs."
With lody present, I didn’t want to make any mistakes today after what happened last night. Unexpectedly, Grace leaned in closer.
The elevator was crowded, and with her proximity, I could feel her curves and softness in front of , full of elasticity.
Even as her hand touched , she lowered her voice. "Do you dislike my revealing attire? Is my outfit innocent enough today?" She didn’t back away but instead moved closer. I was puzzled.
