Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 666

In fact, he had truly kept that promise during the two decades they spent abroad.

Over the years, he had been the gentle and steady Gentry Iverson no matter what happened.

He was always there for her. He looked after her and shielded her from trouble. To her, he was always someone she could rely on.

But people were complicated creatures.

It was true that Gentry had never turned a hair in the face of all kinds of troubled times.

However, when something struck his nerve, he would instantly release the light he had been hiding under a bushel.

Gentry inhaled deeply and said as gently as he could manage, “Sorry. I shouldn’t have lashed out at you. Kristina, let me walk you back to your room.”

Kristina nodded, not speaking. She extended a hand to him. Supported by him, she headed back to the hotel.

When they came to the entrance of the hotel, Kristina withdrew her hand and said to Gentry softly, “You can go now. I’ll go up myself. Gentry, thank you for helping me out. I should let you go back to your business.”

Moonlight Manor was a place frequented by celebrities and dignitaries, so the security here was certainly good.

Besides, Kristina was much healthier than before. Therefore, there was not much to worry about.

Hearing her words, Gentry let go of her hand and watched her go into her room.

Laura and Max didn’t think of going back to their room until they were exhausted after hanging out for a long time.

They hadn’t had lunch yet. But Laura was tired, and she didn’t want to dine out.

Thus, Max decided to bring Laura back to their room and order room service.

But unexpectedly, they saw a familiar figure the moment they stepped into the hotel elevator.

“We met again. What a coincidence.”

Kristina smiled benignly at them and moved a step backward.

This also took Laura and Max by surprise. They greeted her with a smile after they entered the elevator.

“Yeah, what are the odds? You’re also staying here?

Kristina nodded.

Max gazed at her. The more he observed, the more strongly he felt she was the woman in the picture that his father hid in a book.

Unable to repress his curiosity, he asked, “Are you here for sightseeing or do you live here?”

Moonlight Manor also provided long-term accommodation. A large area in the back was reserved for people who stayed here to relax and gain some peace of mind.

Of course, only the rich could stay here for long, for long-term dwelling in this place was very pricy.

Kristina smiled and answered, “I just came back to the country. My stay here is only temporary. I’ll leave in a couple of days.”

Laura and Max nodded knowingly.

For some reason, Laura found this woman in front of her naturally endearing.

Perhaps it was because she was gorgeous but didn’t seem cocky as most pretty women were.

Laura found her mild and genial, like a pretty sister to her.

Thus, she couldn’t help but ask, “Miss, may I know your name?

Beaming, Kristina replied, “I’m Kristina Welch.”

Laura nodded and asked, “Can I call you Kristina?”

Kristina was dazed. She didn’t expect Laura would like to be on first-name terms with her.

A moment later, she nodded with delight and asked, “What about you? What’s your name?”

Laura raised her eyebrow in surprise. Though this might sound narcissistic, she still asked in wonder, “You don’t know who I am?”

Kristina was taken aback. She looked blankly at Laura and then at Max. Embarrassed, she inquired, “Am I… supposed to know you?”
