His Adam's apple bobbed, and his hand shifted slightly. Eventually, he managed to control the urge to draw her into an embrace.

“Looks like there's something missing."

Claudia's brows furrowed. She looked at Bennett, innocently asking, “What's that?"

“Underwear.”

Claudia's face turned red. "Oh... right. Please pack that yourself." Choosing underwear was not her place, after all.

“Well, thank you," he expressed his gratitude, and proceeded to the wardrobe, extracting five pieces of underwear for the suitcase. Standing by, Claudia's cheeks blushed.

Fortunately, Bennett packed his underwear swiftly.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Claudia advised, “Mr. Dreskin, your Luggage is ready. Have a good night's rest."

"Okay," he replied, escorting her out of the room, a concealed smile in his eyes.

Once back in her room, Claudia leaned against the door, her heart racing, her hand covering her flushed face.

Ah, Claudia, how easily you are swayed! She thought. As she collected herself, there was a knock at the door

Startled, she opened it to find Bennett. "Mr. Dreskin, do you need anything else?"

"I forgot to ask. What sort of gift would you like me to bring back from my business trip?"

Upon hearing these words, Claudia's face registered shock. She wanted to say she didn't need anything, but recalling Bennett's previous statement about his secretary selecting a gift for his girlfriend, she realized she had to accept it, whether she desired it or not.

After a moment's thought, she inquired, “How about some mango candy?" Bennett glanced at her and smiled, asking, "Do you enjoy it that much?" Embarrassed, she responded, “I simply wish to try various brands of mango candy.”

“Very well.”

Claudia was unsure, but she thought she detected a tone of indulgence and gentleness in Bennett's agreement.

Oh my God! She could sense a touch of sweetness within herself.

That night, Claudia had a really nice dream.

On the following morning, as the alarm sounded, she awoke and stared at the familiar ceiling, realizing it was just a dream.

It felt so real though!

Memories of the Lingering kiss from her dream caused Claudia to cover her face, her heart racing.

The alarm persisted in ringing. She grabbed her phone to silence it and eventually rose to wash up.

Since Bennett had a business trip, she, as Mrs. Dreskin, had the duty to bid him farewell!
