Arriving at the airport, Thomas Shannon cupped her face, and Sophie Sullivan’s cheeks were squeezed together by his hands. Sophie protested and hit him twice, "You’re despicable."
"Promise me, when I’m not here, you have to be a well-behaved baby, no fooling around, understand?"
"..."
"Sophie, say you understand."
"..."
"Cecilia Branford, did you hear me?"
"You’re so annoying, isn’t it enough that I heard you?"
Sophie was defeated by him, and Thomas Shannon began to push his luck, his thin lips curling into a seductive arc, "Kiss goodbye."
Sophie lifted her slender arm, wrapping it around his neck, and offered her red lips proactively.
Thomas Shannon kissed her thoroughly and only gradually let go. His forehead pressed against hers, his nose affectionately rubbing against hers, "When I’m not around, be a good girl, okay?"
"Mm."
"Remember to call me every day."
"Mm."
"Will you miss me?"
People are greedy, even Thomas Shannon is no exception.
When you’re in the sea of emotions, your heart becomes increasingly greedy.
He hoped even more that she could reciprocate his feelings, rather than him giving unilaterally. Unreciprocated affection can easily make one disheartened.
"Then will you miss me?" Sophie blinked, her beautiful, watery eyes seemed to speak.
Seeing it made people’s hearts itch unbearably, and Thomas Shannon let out a sigh from his throat, "Fennie, if you keep looking at me like this, I won’t be able to leave today."
Sophie immediately looked away, "Then just go."
"Heartless little scamp." Thomas Shannon gave her a smack on her booty with his hand.
Sophie grumbled in dissatisfaction, "Just go, I still have to go home and give Gaby a bath."
"Mm." Thomas Shannon gave her cheek a light peck, "I’m leaving."
Sophie said nothing as Thomas Shannon let go of her and got out of the car.
He didn’t look back the whole time.
Sophie retracted her gaze, her red lips slightly parted: "Let’s go."
......
Country A.
An unplanned meeting is perhaps the most unexpected.
Fluffy Zane didn’t expect to encounter William Guillen at the banquet.
He seemed to have drunk quite a bit and was socializing; he was the first to see her.
Standing in the crowd, he truly epitomized the phrase "gentle as jade," standing there with a smile at the corner of the mouth, like a gentleman in a turbulent world.
Only Fluffy Zane knew that this was merely the persona he showed to outsiders.
The real William Guillen had a temper that was appallingly despicable.
Fluffy Zane wanted to pretend she hadn’t seen him and turn around to leave, but unexpectedly, William Guillen had already lifted his wine glass to signal to her. He turned and said a couple of sentences to the person next to him, then began striding toward her.
Fluffy Zane had no way to retreat, and it was impossible to flee on the spot. Her legs felt rooted to the ground, immobile.
Even though her heartbeat was becoming increasingly out of control due to his approach.
"Here alone?" William Guillen looked around and didn’t see Jim Jones anywhere.
Fluffy Zane shook her head, "Came with friends."
"That’s fine." William Guillen took a sip of red wine, then lifted his eyelids to look at her, "Shall we chat?"
Fluffy Zane knew what "chatting" with him meant, and as her heart struggled, she still nodded, "Okay."
"Young Master Guillen, you were hard to find, how did you end up here?" A CEO came over, holding a wine glass, and clinked glasses with him.
Turning his gaze, he saw Fluffy Zane and laughed, "Isn’t that Miss Zane? I remember Miss Zane has a pretty good alcohol tolerance, come, let me toast you."
