"Raegan, I can't stay over tonight. Make sure to lock your door and stay safe, okay?"

Raegan nodded.

"Okay."

Just then, her phone buzzed with a new message.

Raegan opened it and saw it was from Henley, asking about her decision to translate a book.

She could not recall discussing this with him.

Suddenly, an idea occurred to her. She glanced at the silver car still trailing them and typed a reply.

“Are you free? Can you come over to my place to discuss it?"

“sure. I'm close by. I'll be there shortly," Henley replied almost immediately.

“Meet me at my door."

After Nicole dropped her off at her apartment, Raegan went upstairs to her unit to find Henley already waiting. She opened the door and invited him, "Come in, please."

As they settled in, Raegan “accidentally” spilled coffee on him.

The next moment, she looked at him and asked, "Do you want to take a shower?"

Henley was not born yesterday not to know what it meant to take a bath in a woman's house.

He looked at Raegan's bare face. She had radiant skin, a pair of almond eyes, and rosy lips. She was still very pretty, even without makeup.

As the warm light shone down on her, he could see the fine hair on her delicate face. This made her lovelier in his eyes.

No normal man would not be charmed by Raegan's beauty. And Henley was not an exception. After staring at Raegan for a while, he felt his lower abdomen tightened. He was aroused.

His deep-set eyes were fixed on her as he asked, “Is it convenient for you now?"

The way Henley stared at her made Raegan feel a bit awkward. She looked away and murmured, “I'm sorry, Henley."

She must admit that she wanted to take advantage of him at first.
