In the evening, Jane walked out of the bathroom with wet hair after taking a shower. She wore a round-necked nightgown that revealed her fair and slender neck, which caught Louis' attention. However, Jane seemed unaware and went to the dining table with a towel in her hand.
As soon as she sat down, Louis took the towel from her hand. When she turned to see what he was doing, a deep voice behind her made Jane's body stiffen.
"I'll help you dry your hair," said Louis.
Before Jane could react, Louis had started drying her hair clumsily with the towel. His movements were gentle and delicate as if he was handling precious porcelain.
After some time passed by, he stood up to get a blow dryer for her when suddenly Jane reached out and grabbed his big hand.
"I don't want my hair blown dry," said Jane softly.
"Why not?" asked Louis while staring at her intensely with his blue eyes. His usually gentle face had become somewhat serious now.
Jane glanced at her sleeping daughter on the bed before saying in a low voice, "Vivian is already asleep; blowing my hair will wake her up."
Upon hearing this explanation from Jane, Louis frowned slightly but did not agree or disagree immediately. Instead of arguing further about it right then and there, he told Jane to wait for him before making a phone call to his guard on his mobile phone.
The call was answered quickly by the guard who listened intently as Louis gave him an order in an icy tone, "Go buy me a silent heater fan from an electronics store nearby and have it delivered here immediately."
Louis hung up without any further words after giving this instruction.
Jane was left stunned and couldn't believe that Louis would go so far just so that her hair could be dried.
After Jane came to her senses, she quickly spoke up, "My hair dries quickly, you don't have to do this."
"It's not good for you to sleep with wet hair," Louis explained seriously, his tone leaving no room for refusal.
The woman hesitated and suddenly said, "It's late and your guard also needs rest. It's not very polite to trouble him like this."
"Then I'll double his salary this month," the man said lightly, causing Jane to be stunned again.
She thought about it seriously. If her boss asked her to go out in the middle of the night and buy a heater with double pay, she would probably agree too.
Jane's eyes flickered before settling on Louis once again.
This man was so rich!
Richer than any man she had ever met before.
If only that double pay could be given to her instead... she would be willing to go outside and dry her own hair with the wind if necessary.
Louis stood in front of Jane as he watched the changes in her expression.
After thinking briefly himself, he soon understood what caused her expression change.
With a slight curve of his lips, Louis reached out and rubbed Jane's head.
"Be good, don't feel bad. Our family is very wealthy."
