Meeting The One For Me

Ryan walked over to the car and opened the passenger door. He gestured for Audrey to get in.

However, Audrey walked over to the driver’s seat and opened the door instead. “You’ve been drinking, and you’re injured! Let me drive.”

“Go to my place,” Ryan said after getting into the car.

Audrey drove the car out of the hospital’s underground parking lot. As she glanced at Ryan,, who had taken off his mask and closed his eyes to rest in the passenger seat, she felt the need to explain what had just happened.

“Today, two seniors and a junior of mine from Cloudmill University came to Mythravia. They’re leaving tomorrow, so we had dinner together. The junior was Joseph, who is also Nathan’s cousin.

“After dinner, Joseph invited us to Night Palace, but I didn’t expect to run into Nathan there. Nathan sought me out, and we had a private conversation. He said he wanted me to let go of Amelia’s manager, but I refused!”

Ryan recalled the image of Audrey gripping Nathan’s tie and standing close to him in the dimly lit street near the entrance of Night Palace. The outline of his jaw bite grew deeper.

“Where was Peter?”

Ryan’s voice was low.

“After we finished dinner at the hotpot restaurant, I felt sorry for him waiting alone in the ar, so I let him go home to rest. I didn’t expect any trouble to happen at Night Palace. Don’t blame Peter. It was my decision to let him go.”

“You’re good at looking out for others.”

Ryan spoke indifferently, and Audrey couldn’t discern his tone. She focused on driving in

silence.

“Why were you at Night Palace today? Were you there for business?” Audrey tried to probe with a casual question.

“Yeah.”

Ryan seemed inclined to talk. Audrey raised the temperature of the air conditioning and

drove in silence.

What Audrey didn’t realize was that Ryan was only trying to stop absurd thoughts by closing his eyes and not looking at her.

After witnessing Audrey pulling Nathan’s tie and closing the distance between them, he regretted giving her time until George’s banquet.

He wished he could use all sorts of shameless means to force her to stay by his side and to force her to fall in love with him.

Ryan lifted his hand to loosen his tie and unbutton the top two buttons of his shirt.

He admitted he was jealous.

He also admitted that he lost control because of his jealousy.

But since he had promised to give her time, he had to keep his promise.

After all, this decision affected their future together.

“Feeling hot?” Audrey asked.

“Mm,” Ryan mumbled.

Audrey adjusted the temperature again.

The car drove into the prestigious villa area. Audrey parked the car in the parking space of a detached villa, and the garage door slowly closed behind them.

She glanced sideways and noticed that Ryan seemed to be asleep. Carefully and cautiously, she approached him, unfastened his seatbelt, and gently guided it back into place.

Before Audrey could fully release Ryan’s seatbelt, he grabbed her and pulled her onto his lap from the driver’s seat. NôvelDrama.Org © content.

The seatbelt buckle clicked against the wall of the car.
