Great, didn’t she say she was afraid of water? How dare she go to the hot springs with another man.

Ha!

Shopping, buying flowers, enjoying hot springs, Western cuisine, various Japanese dishes, quite romantic, huh?

"Mr. President, I’ll leave right away—" the assistant trembled, retreating cautiously.

...

Inside the room.

Lucas Knight seemed to find everything annoying!

Fine then...

She brought this upon herself; if he’s not ruthless to her, she won’t know his methods? She’s even dared to use him!!

Outside the presidential suite, two rows of bodyguards stood in a neat formation. No one knew why, but after three years of abstaining from women, the man suddenly indulged himself, and now, he’s... jealous!

Everyone could see it; the huge fit of anger the President just had must mean... he was jealous, right?

Who would have thought this man could be like that...

"Slam—" Lost in thought, the door to the room suddenly opened, and Lucas Knight walked out.

The Boss walked out with an air of coldness, not saying a word, and entered the elevator.

Everyone was startled, then followed suit after a moment of realization.

Five days later.

One evening, Eva Nightingale and Liam Coldwell had arranged to have dinner at the Four Seasons Hotel. Since he was quite busy today and remained at the Presidential Mansion, Eva arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel early, waiting in the VIP private room.

Liam Coldwell told Eva they were just ordinary friends. He was quite strategic and wouldn’t directly tell Eva his purpose was to win her over... Moreover, the most important thing is that winning over Eva means gaining control over all of Eastern Europe.

This is why Liam Coldwell always accommodated Eva’s wishes, even... previously at the Coldwell Family, when Eva clashed with Sophie Linwood, he punished Sophie by making her kneel and kept her from entering the Coldwell estate for a month.

There’s a saying, "Showing excessive attentiveness without reason is either treacherous or deceitful."

When someone is inexplicably good to you, you shouldn’t take it for granted; instead, they likely have an ulterior motive.

Eva waited in the VIP room for about ten minutes.

Outside the private room, sudden footsteps could be heard, followed by a strange chill in the air.

The steady and strong footsteps came closer, closer...

Closer.

Suddenly, the door to the private room was pushed open. Eva immediately turned her head toward the door: "Liam..." The words ’Liam Coldwell, why are you so late?’ seemed stuck in her throat.

What she saw was a tall, imposing figure of a man carrying an aura of coolness! How could it be him?

"You..." She widened her eyes in shock. After just escaping, how did he manage to find her?

"Why is it you?"

"Am I that surprising?" He curled his lips, looking around the spacious, luxurious private room; it was indeed quite nice.

"No—" She didn’t know what to say, then she saw Lucas Knight calmly sitting on the sofa nearby.

He didn’t seem to have any intention of leaving!

Where was Liam Coldwell? Shouldn’t the person coming here be Liam Coldwell? Also, how did Lucas Knight know she was in City A, Country Z?

A series of questions made her nerves tense up.

This meal, originally planned with Liam Coldwell, unexpectedly turned into a shock. Quite a shock indeed.

...

In the private room, waiters continued to serve dishes. Once everything was on the table, they left, closing the door behind them.

Instantly, the room was left with just the two of them.
