Chapter 191 

Howard stretched out his warm hand, gently pinching her chin with his fingertips, meeting her clear gaze as he declared, “Just an insignificant woman.” 

He knew all too well what she was about to ask. So, he’d give her on answer. 

Tim sorry. Mr. Chadwick, Gwendolyn stammered, biting her lower lip, regretting her prying into what felt like forbidden territory. Howard slid his hand to her cheek, his fingers trailing down her porcelain neck. “I like it when you ask,” he murmured 

Gwendolyn’s heart was a cacophony of unspeakable feelings 

Suddenly, he leaned in, his lips capturing hers in a kiss. 

She closed her eyes, surrendering to the moment. The faint scent of his cologne mingled with the charged air. She felt dizzy, almost intoxicated by their closeness 

Her hands reached up, instinctively wapping around his neck. 

“Dr. Gwen, is your lipstick poisoned?” he teased in a low murmur 

Their breaths intertwined, hot and urgent. His eyes, dark and gleaming, seemed to bewitch her very soul. 

Her face flushed a deep crimson. “No, it’s not,” she managed to reply, recalling the ingredients list. 

“Then make sure to wear it more often,” he said in a tone that sent ripples through her heart. 

Gwendolyn felt lightheaded, relishing his fondness for her lipstick. In a barely audible whisper, she agreed, “Okay” 

The car soon pulled up in front of their cozy villa. 

Marina, upon their arrival, bustled into the kitchen and brought two bowls of warm, sweet pudding to their bedroom. 

“Mr. and Mrs. Chadwick, you must be hungry after a long evening out. I’ve whipped up some late–night comfort food for you both.” 

“Thank you. Marina, Gwendolyn replied with a smile as Howard nonchalantly removed his coat. 

Marina chuckled knowingly before stepping out of the room. 

Moments later, the sound of a door locking echoed faintly. 

Gwendolyn stood abruptly and tried the door. 

Was it locked?

“Marina?” she 

No response. Manna was long gone. 

“Mr. Chadwick, Marina has locked us in, Gwendolyn informed him. 

“Mhm,” Howard replied, unfazed. 

“So, tonight.

“Marina wants you unused.” 

Marina was obviously questioning his manhood to force an opportunity on them. 

Gwendolyn pursed her lips, resigned and at a loss. 

The sight of her pouting amused him. “You’ve stayed here before,” he said, casually undoing his tie. “Maybe it’s time to learn something new?” 

“Huh?” 

Howard took her hand and placed it on his lower abdomen, unfastening his belt with a soft click and handing it to her. “Next time, you can do this. I’m off to shower” 

The sound of the shower soon filled the dir. 

Gwendolyn sat primly on the couch, the leather belt still warm in her hands, her cheeks burning with heat. 

She wasn’t used to sharing a bed with Howard, let alone spending time alone with him. 

What would happen tonight? Would they make love? 

Howard’s phone, left on the coffee table, began to vibrate with a call from an unknown number. Gwendolyn was about to alert him when the call ended. 

Soon after, her phone displayed the same number. It looked familiar, but she couldn’t quite place it.
