Chapter 115
Kylie shook her head. “Oh, I’m not tired.“.
Kylie sl
She hesitated over whether she should go and confirm it.
After all, the sound she heard came from the woods and wasn’t very clear.
There were quite a few people with the surname Hawkins in Jardora.
After she was reborn, she developed a new understanding of human behavior and started to have concerns about relationships.
Probably, she really cared about Jessie and didn’t want Jessie to experience the same heartbreak and betrayal. It felt just as bad as being skinned alive.
“Did it scare you?” Trevor asked again.
He noticed that recently, Henry had been spending a lot of time with his secretary and had visited here a few times.
He didn’t e
expect Henry to make out with that woman outside this time.
If this continued, Trevor thought Henry would seriously regret it later.
“Oh, no. Just regret not going in to check it out Kylie accidentally voiced her thoughts.
Going in and catching them red–handed would reveal if it was Henry or not.
Trevor looked down, his deep eyes locking onto Kylie’s. In a low alluring voice, he said. “You’re quite adventurous, huh? Curious about what it’s like to play in the woods?
As he spoke, he tugged at his tie. His words seemed to ignite a spark, slightly scratching his throat.
It was a bit itchy and dry. His Adam’s apple bobbed once,
Kylie glanced up, noticing the movement of his Adam’s apple.
Trevor was undeniably handsome, even his Adam’s apple seemed attractive.
She blushed. With a determined heart, she said, “Don’t get any ideas, Mr. Walters. A friendly suggestion. I advise you not to try it. There are caterpillars that fall when the trees sway, mosquitoes all around, and you might end up being watched”
Trevor’s lips twitched slightly.
Just a moment ago, she seemed as innocent as a high school student. Now she was as mischievous as a little witch
He closed his eyes for a second, trying to restrain the vivid image from turning into a mental movie.
Two hours later, it was around seven in the evening. Two sweaty people returned to the spa resort after playing golf. The staff brought in dinner and clothes.
It was not ideal to go to a hot spring immediately after eating.
Kylie glanced at Trevor, who was in the middle of a video call, picked up her phone, and walked out.

Eating too much at night–made her feel a bit bloated, so she decided to take a walk.
She left a message for Trevor on WhatsApp..
The night seemed even quieter. She took a different path for her walk this time. She strolled leisurely, enjoying the evening.
She had a casual chat with Jessie. “How’s Mrs. Joyce’s health check–up going?”
Feeling bored alone at home, Jessie said. “My mom’s got the same old problems. She skipped meals and drank a lot for work when she was younger, so now she gets stomach aches if she eats too much.”
Kylie asked, “Are you home alone?
Yeah, Henry has a lot of work at the company today. He has to attend an international video meeting and stay overnight. There’s a bed in the office, so he’s sleeping there tonight. My poor husband is working so hard to support the family and our future baby, Jessie spoke with love and concern for Henry.
Kylie gripped her phone tightly, thinking. “What a coincidence.
Jessie said. Tve been thinking about making some soup and bringing it to him, but when I asked how things were going with him, he didn’t reply. He’s probably still in a meeting. If I went, he wouldn’t have the time to talk to me, and I’d just be bothering him, so I dropped the idea.
“Oh. I forgot to mention, Henry has a new secretary. She’s a looker, but I think you’re prettier. Kylie is the most beautiful,” Jessie added.
Secretary? Kylie thought about how she heard them calling Mr. Hawkins in the woods and those whispers about stockings. It seemed like they had a boss–and–employee relationship.
“Kylie, why aren’t you speaking?” Jessie asked.
“I’m just listening. I think you should occasionally show your love Maybe Henry will be moved and work even harder,” Kylie said, keeping her suspicions to herself.
It would be best if it were just a coincidence. Jessie and Henry were deeply in love with each other.
Jessie’s eyes lit up. “Yeah, I’m his wife. I’ll go get takeout from our favorite restaurant and give him a surprise.”
Last time, when she took the hospital report to Henry, he was surprised and happy, more than she’d imagined.
In a marriage, one person shouldn’t be the only one doing all the giving.
He was going on a business trip tomorrow. Having a wild encounter at his office tonight could be thrilling. Jessie touched her flushed face at the thought
She reached for the nightstand to grab a condom, but then she dropped the idea.
They were planning to have a baby now, so there was no need for that anymore.
She knew there was a room on the top floor of his company building. Sometimes, he’d take a break there during international meetings
She wanted to try it back when they were dating, but somehow she forgot about it.
“Goodbye, Kylie. I’m heading out now” Jessie exclaimed.
Kylie glanced at her phone, which had disconnected, still thinking about the conversation she overheard in the woods. earlier.

Chapter 115
The man’s voice really sounded like Henry’s.
She hoped she had heard it wrong and was just overthinking it.
After finishing the video call, Trevor noticed that Kylie was not there. He texted her back after seeing her message on WhatsApp. [My video call is over.]
Then, he went upstairs to take a shower.
He wasn’t concerned about Kylie’s safety at the spa resort. Security was patrolling at this hour.
Besides, everyone who came to the resort had to register their identity.
After getting Trevor’s message, Kylie started walking back.
She hadn’t gone far, so she returned to the villa quickly.
Seeing that Trevor wasn’t there, Kylie assumed he went to the hot spring first.
She picked up the swimwear the staff brought and went upstairs immediately.
When she reached the bathroom, she pushed the door open and walked in.
She had hurried on her way back, so she was a bit sweaty.
She didn’t notice Trevor coming out from inside.
Trevor, holding a towel, was drying his hair, and had not yet draped a towel around his waist. He saw Kylie, who was halfway through undressing, and said, “You…”
When Kylie heard this, her scalp tingled.
She looked over and saw Trevor, with water droplets still sticking to his body.
His perfect body and handsome face were everything one could desire, with a few drops of water sliding down from his chest.
Kylie knew Trevor had a good physique, but she didn’t expect it to be this impressive.
She unconsciously swallowed.
“Like what you see? Trevor tossed the towel aside, unhurriedly took a nearby towel, wrapped it around his strong, narrow waist, and walked toward Kylie with a few steps.
Kylie instinctively stepped back, completely shocked by what she had just seen. “L” she stuttered.
It was quite big
He leaned down close to her ear and said in a tempting voice, “kylie, you won’t regret it if you are my wife.”
Kylie was completely stunned by Trevor’s words.
Swallowing hard, she said, “You won’t regret it either if you are my husband, Trevor.”
From a purely visual standpoint, she thought it would be a win–win for both of them.
However, she clearly knew he didn’t like her, and she didn’t want to have emotional entanglement with him.
