Samuel’s heart softened just then. Remembering that Tina had just recovered from her injuries, having her wait for so long was indeed putting her on the spot.
“There’s an international project my company is involved in, with many aspects where I have t o personally oversee. Things won’t be so troublesome soon…”
As Samuel spoke, he suddenly frowned-why was he explaining so much to her?
Tina took no notice of the details, however, and asked, “Well, can I sleep now?”
“Yeah.”
Having received Samuel’s approval, Tina nodded in great relief. “Alright. I’m going to bed then
-goodnight.”
She was about to turn and leave when the man’s powerful arms blocked her way.
“Did you forget about the contents of our agreement, Tina?” There was dissatisfaction in Samuel’s voice.
What was she pulling here, leaving so quickly? “But it’s already so late.” Tina mumbled gingerly, but she also noticed that the look on Samuel’s face was getting darker, and cowered a little as she caved, “Alright, I got it —I’ll serve you properly.”
And with that, Samuel strode off and was soon quite far away. It took her some effort to catch up, and she couldn’t help complaining in her head.

She grabbed Samuel by reflex since he was closest to her, and because Samuel took a step back instinctively, her outstretched hand reached his bathrobe sash and pulled… .
“Ti-na-Lynd!” A roar like a wrathful lion’s resounded, startling Tina to her senses, and she quickly covered her eyes.
“I-I saw nothing!”
Samuel was a little annoyed then-he did not expect her to be as unruly as ever.
Seeing that he wasn’t saying anything, Tina was afraid that he would make her sleep with the fishes, and hence tried to explain herself. novelbin
“I really didn’t mean it! I almost fell just now, and reached out in reflex… Anyway, I saw nothing… Fine, I did see something, but there’s nothing wrong with showing your six packs, i s there?!”
Tinawas digging herself a deeper hole the more she explained, and Samuel’s expression grew darker.
Leaning downwards, she reached out to hold up her chin. “I really want to cut off your tongue!”
She might look poor and innocent, but her words were so sharp it made him murderous!
“No, wait!” Knowing that Samuel was a man of his word, Tina exclaimed, “I’ll keep my mouth shut, so spare my tongue.”

Tina promptly looked for a dry towel and started wiping his damp hair.
