Chapter 625
Perhaps it was due to what Taya had found out about Stella’s past, she had a sleepless night. She
woke up in a daze in the morning…
She checked her phone and saw that Griffon usually would have already video called her by this time,
but not today. A sense of unease crept into her heart as she gathered the courage to dial his number.
However, he didn’t answer…
Taya put down her phone and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, staring blankly at the rising sun
outside.
She and Harper had visited Stella at the hospital, attended a training center class, and completed a
design project in the study, all without hearing from Griffon.
She lay on the bed, clutching her phone and staring at the chat box. She waited for an hour, then a
whole night, but he still didn’t
call…
As dawn approached, she couldn’t resist falling asleep. It was then she had a strange dream…
She couldn’t recall the scene, but she remembered Griffon
passing her with a cold face. She chased after him, grabbed his
sleeve, and apologized tearfully, “I’m sorry, it wasn’t intentional…”
He stopped walking, didn’t look back at her, pushed her hand away, “I’ve really tried. I’ve even given
you my whole life. I don’t have the strength to chase after you anymore. Let’s end it between us.”
She stood there, watching him get into the car and drive away. Suddenly, she broke down, covered her
face, and cried on the ground.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter waking up from this dream, Taya pressed on her aching heart and sat against the headboard for a
long time to calm herself down.
In Washington, Griffon had just awakened from treatment and was alarmed by the time on the hospital
wall clock.
He trembled as he turned on his phone and discovered that Taya had video called him. He quickly got
out of bed and hurried out of
the hospital after getting into his car.
Once inside the car, he tidied up his messy hair before dialing Taya’s video call.
Sitting on the bed, Taya’s anxious heart gradually calmed down
when she saw his incoming call.
She clicked the answer button and before she could even speak,
she heard Griffon’ anxious voice.
“I’m sorry. I was in a meeting for the whole day and night. That’s why I didn’t call you on time. It’s my
fault, I…”
Taya interrupted him, “When will you be back?”
Griffon gripped his phone and asked her with uncertainty, “Do your miss me?”
This time, Taya didn’t avoid the question. Instead, she responded firmly, “Yes.”
Griffon, who was on the video call, clearly froze for a moment, as if he couldn’t believe she would miss
him.
A warm feeling, like a hot spring, slowly flowed from his chest. “I’ll be back today.”
Taya nodded gently at the video and asked, “Do you want me to pick you up at the airport?”
Griffon slowly curved his lips and spoke in a low, magnetic voice, “Wait for me at home.”
He took his private jet from Washington to Arcadia and arrived
close to midnight.
Taya was about to fall asleep when the doorbell suddenly rang
outside the villa…
She put on a thin coat and went out to open the door. Before she
ven
up, her petite body fell into a strong embrace.
The man lifted her up, pressed her against the villa door, and took her lips in his, twisting and turning to
taste her fragrance.
The light cedar scent on him lingered between her nostrils, giving Taya a sense of security in her empty
heart…
She took the initiative to hug Griffon’ waist and also took the initiative to tilt her head back and respond
to him…
That dream gave her an answer, if Griffon were not around, she would collapse like she did in the
dream.
Feeling the change in the woman’s emotions in his arms, Griffon’ restrained desire suddenly burst out.
“Come home with me.”
Without responding to him, Taya just leaned her head against his
chest.
The tall and sturdy man picked her up and put her in the car,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmquickly starting the car and driving towards the estate.
After the car stopped at the entrance of the estate, the man
picked her up from the passenger seat and quickly walked into the
villa.
Frank and the se rvants saw him come back holding someone,
to the side without disturbing him…
Griffon held Taya and went straight to the master bedroom on the second floor. Without even turning on
the lights, he pressed her
against the wall and kissed her wildly.
With his fingers, he pulled off her clothes. Just when he held her slender waist against his abdomen,
the man became even crazier about her.
“Wait, wait a minute…”
“Hmm?”
The man lifted his blurred eyes, filled with desire, and bloodshot. “Don’t you want to try?”
Taya touched his thick hair and blushed, lowering her head. “I… I haven’t taken a shower yet…”
With his distinct joints, he lifted her slender legs and tightly wrapped her around his waist, carrying her
into the bathroom.
“I’ll help you.”
In the bathroom, Taya was pressed against the bathtub, enduring the waves of pleasure…
She held onto the man’s back and lightly kissed his forehead under the light coming in from the
window.
“Don’t you let me down again.”
