When Neil walked into the suite, his surroundings were only dimly brightened by the light in the dining area. The suite was very quiet as if there was no one inside.

He took out his coat threw them on the sofa, and entered the master bedroom. 

A deep frown formed on his face when Neil noticed that the room was empty.

He left the room and walked over to the bedroom across his and found that there were two figures on the bed. His girlfriend was accompanying his niece to sleep. Looking at the way the two girls were hugging each other as they slept and Neil did not have the heart to wake them up.

With a sigh, he turned around and went back into his bedroom. Neil walked into the bathroom in his pajama and took a shower. 

A few influential people had shown up at the banquet and Neil had the chance to exchange a few business ideas with his potential partners. Although it was tiring and he did not enjoy talking to people that much, Neil thought that this time he had come out for nothing.

As the banquet almost reached the end, a few of them had asked for him to join them for a drink or two at the club. Some of the directors had wanted to throw him a few girls, but Neil had rejected their invitation to spend his time with his girlfriend.

He had been busy with the company matters recently and had brought both Hazel and Edith to this resort as compensation.

But who would think that the person would be sleeping with his niece when he returned…

Neil let out a disappointed sigh. He walked out of the bathroom and dried his hair with a towel. Just as he stepped into the room, his movement halted when he saw that Edith walked into the room with his coat in her hand.

"When did you come back?" Edith asked.

"Just a while ago." Neil watched as Edith hung his coat into the wardrobe and then, she walked over to the dressing table. 

"Come here. Let me help you dry your hair."

Neil walked over obediently and sat down. A few seconds later, the whirling sounds of the hairdryer could be heard. Because Neil had short hair, his hair dried quickly.

"I thought that you were going to accompany Hazel to sleep tonight," Neil said as he watched Edith put away the hairdryer.

"Hazel was not feeling too good after dinner. Therefore, I thought it would be good if I stayed with her a while longer."

A frown appeared on his face. "What's wrong with Hazel? Is she alright?"

"She's alright now. After we returned to the room, her complexion turned better," Edith said. "She probably a little tired after playing around before dinner."

Neil let out a breath of relief knowing that his niece was alright. 

"How was your dinner? Did you eat anything?"

Edith recalled the last time she had accompanied Neil to a dinner party. At that time, she realized that he has been spending his time discussing the business matters and had not eaten properly. 

Moreover, every time Neil came back from a banquet, he would often ask her to prepare something to eat.

"I asked the kitchen to prepare a bowl of porridge for takeout," Edith said. "You should eat some to pad your stomach. Wait here. I'll go and reheat them in the microwave."

Before Neil could respond, his girlfriend had left the room. Neil walked out of the room and found Edith in the small kitchen. He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Edith let out a laugh and leaned on the sturdy chest behind her. "What are you doing?"

Neil gave a peck at her cheek. "I just thought that it's good to have you around. It's a good feeling to have someone cared about me."

Edith wriggled out of his embrace, turned around, and linked her arms around his neck. With a tiptoe, her soft lips met with his in a brief kiss. The microwave made a sound to alert them that their food was done and Edith pulled away to serve the porridge.

"Come on. Eat before the food gets cold." Edith said. 

Seeing the look on her face, Neil could only sit down and eat his porridge. Edith sat across him and watched him as he ate.

"I saw both Secretary Liu and Attorney General Leng at the restaurant earlier," Edith said. "They were with a group of men I don't recognize. Were they a part of the banquet guest?"

Neil replied with a soft hum. "Attorney General Leng is always interested in the property business. He came over to find a place he could invest in."

Edith nodded. "It was the first time I saw him up close. He gave off a scary feeling." 

Perhaps it was due to his occupation, though the Attorney General had a smile on his face, he gave off a suppressing feeling and uncomfortable aura.

Seeing that Neil had finished his food, Edith picked up the empty bowl and started to clean up the area a little bit. The next thing she knew, Edith was once again hugged from behind. 

A laugh escaped her. Edith thought that sometimes, Neil could be stickier than Hazel. He always wanted to stay closer and touched her.

Neil rested his chin on her shoulder and whispered, "I'm still hungry."

"We have some bread. Would you like them?"

"No. Baby, did you forget that we have an unfinished business?"

Edith immediately knew what was in Neil's thought.

She had teased him earlier and ran away. This time, Neil wanted to continue where they left off. 

Edith turned around and was not surprised to see his eyes darkened with desire. The way Neil was staring back at her made her face warm and her breathing labored.

Every time she saw him looking at her like that, Edith would feel her body warmed up and she wanted to feel his touch the same way he wanted to feel hers.

The two of them continued to stare at each other for a long time. Although the look on Neil's face showed that he could not wait to devour her, Neil did not make a move and instead continued to look at her as if asking if it would be alright for him to continue. 

Edith tiptoed to give him a kiss and soon, the kiss turned heated.

Her eyes closed as Edith was enjoying the way his hands trailed on her body. From her waist, up to her chest and then, down to the area between her legs. Edith felt her legs grew weaker with his touch.

Suddenly, Neil lifted her body and placed her on the kitchen counter before he continued to kiss her. 

"Not here." Edith snapped out of her trance and pushed him away. "Hazel might wake up and see us here when she comes out."

Neil took a deep breath to calm down.. Then, he caught her lips again and carried her into their room.
