Yvette blinked in surprise and pulled the door open again. “Brandon, is there something else?”

She had no clue what was going on inside his head.

Brandon let out a heavy breath. It had been a whole week since they’d started sleeping in separate rooms.

Yvette had never hinted for him to move back into the master bedroom.

Should he take the initiative and ask?

Yet he hesitated, worried he would make her uncomfortable.

Deep down, she had feelings for someone else. It must be hard for her to share a bed with a man she didn’t love so soon after marriage.

After struggling with his thoughts for a moment, he spoke softly. “Don’t forget to drink your milk.”

“I won’t.” Yvette nodded, her eyes clear and pure with no hidden thoughts.

He told himself to take it slow. They had all the time in the world.

He bid her good night and returned to the guest room.

Yvette slept soundly through the night.

Soft morning light filtered through the sheer curtains, and the sound of a door opening woke her up.

She rubbed her eyes and glanced toward the doorway.

Seeing she was awake, Brandon looked apologetic. “Sorry for waking you.”

Yvette smiled and shook her head.

“My suit is in the walk–in closet here in the master bedroom,” he explained. “I just came to grab it.”

“It’s fine.” Yvette threw off the covers and got out of bed.

Brandon walked into the closet while Yvette headed to the bathroom to wash up.

A few minutes later, after finishing her morning routine, she went to the closet to get changed.

She paused when she saw Brandon standing in front of the full–length mirror, fully dressed in his suit.

He was clumsily fumbling with his tie. Morning sunlight framed his body with a soft golden glow, highlighting his perfect broad shoulders.

“Let me help you.” Yvette stepped across the soft carpet barefoot and walked up to him.

Brandon froze for a second before lowering his hands gently. “Thank you.”

As a fashion designer, Yvette was extremely skilled at tying ties.

Still, her hands trembled nervously. It was the first time she’d ever tied a tie for the man she secretly liked.

She stood on her tiptoes. Her fingers accidentally brushed his Adam’s apple.

The bumpy skin bobbed up and down as he swallowed, making her throat feel dry for no

reason.

“Last night…” Brandon suddenly murmured, his warm breath brushing over her forehead.

“If Judith hadn’t interrupted us… would we have…”

Yvette’s fingers twitched, and the tie slipped loose from her hands.

She hurried to catch it, accidentally pressing her palm flat against his chest.

His heartbeat raced fast beneath her touch, sending tiny tingles through her fingertips.

They stood so close she could count every single one of his eyelashes.

Yvette saw complicated emotions swirling deep in his eyes.

His gaze slowly dragged down and locked onto her lips.

Her entire body tensed up. Her mind went completely blank.

It was her first kiss.

Even after she arrived at work and sat at her desk, she couldn’t stop daydreaming about the

moment.

She propped her chin on her hand, smiling shyly and covering her mouth with her palm.

She forced herself to snap out of it and focus on her work.

But as she drew her design drafts, she unconsciously scribbled Brandon’s name all over the paper without noticing.

When she finally saw it, she buried her blushing face in her hands and giggled foolishly.

Hours had passed, yet she could still faintly feel the lingering warmth of his touch on her lips.

She couldn’t help touching her mouth again.

She’d been completely lovestruck the entire day.

Once she finished her draft, she handed it to an employee to make the sample.

The employee came back holding the paper and asked curiously, “Who’s Brandon?”

Yvette then realized she’d mistakenly written his name down as the designer.

Her face burned bright red, and she quickly corrected the name.

When her workday ended in the evening, Yvette grabbed her bag and left the company.

She walked toward the parking lot with light steps, eager to get home, after saying goodbye to her staff.

Just as she reached her car, a man suddenly stepped out and blocked her path, startling her.

She relaxed slightly once she recognized him as Judith’s ex–boyfriend, Dennis Heath.

Dennis looked haggard and exhausted, covered in rough stubble.

His voice cracked with desperation. “Yvette… please take me to see Judith. I’m begging you.”

Yvette’s expression turned cold. “I’m sorry. If you want to see her, make an appointment yourself. I can’t help you.”

“She refuses to see me.” Dennis’s eyes welled up with tears.
