Sandy there was a pause. Next came the sound of snoring
Regen took a closer look at Haylan, and was surprised by what she saw.
Merken had fallen asleep while talking. And he was sleeping soundly.
you can’t drink, don’t drink so much. Just some bottles of spirit and you passed out. Useless.”
Reten grumbled, but she felt blissful.
There was one thing she realized from what Haylan said.
And that was Haylan had been suppressing his desires and opinions all these while. Although he fancied her, he held himself back because of his identity. He did not reveal his thoughts or behave lewdly toward her.
So those are your thoughts. I thought you were gay.” Reign smiled.
She helped Haylan up and struggled into the elevator, where she pressed the button for the 13th floor.
She recalled the various circumstances that Haylan and her had been through. Haylan had even seen her naked on some occasions
Logically speaking, Reign was a gorgeous lady with a fabulous figure. No man could easily resist the temptations of seeing her naked and yet not go after her.
However, Haylan had seen her naked several times, but still did not seem enticed.
Because of that, Reign had even wondered if she was not charming enough or that Haylan did not like girls.
But a drunk man speaks his mind. Reign finally realized Haylan’s concerns and was even slightly touched by his considerations
After much struggle, Reign managed to help Haylan to Room 1314. After she put Haylan onto the bed, she was so tired that she slumped beside Haylan while panting heavily.
Haylan probably weighed about 140 pounds, which was heavy for a girl like her.
However, the more she looked at Haylan, the happier she got. She found him pleasing to the eye.
This man had saved her from precarious situations many a time. He had helped her immensely, strengthening her foothold as the CEO of the company.
Not only that, Haylan cared tremendously for her too.
Even though the two of them would occasionally quarrel and Reign was the unreasonable one most of the time, Haylan would not hold it against her.

Chapter 622
“Haylan, are you an angel sent by the heavens to save me?”
Reign propped herself up. With one hand under her head, she caressed Haylan’s face with her other hand. His appearance was beginning to grow on her.
Ever since her father went missing. Reign had been supporting her family single–handedly. It was challenging, but no matter the hardship, she would stomach it and shoulder on. She placed all the burdens on herself, suffering and crying in silence.
For so long, Reign felt that she had no one to rely on. She was always on her own, and she felt worn out. Although mentally and physically fatigued, she had never dared to show her weakness in front of anyone.
That was until she met Haylan. In front of him, she could be her true self and be vulnerable.
She had finally found someone to rely on, and that was Haylan.
She would be willing to have a relationship with him if Haylan agreed.
“You’ve been so good to me. You’ve saved my life multiple times and even averted danger from my company. But you have been repressing your desires for me. What are you thinking of?
“You’d even put yourself in danger to help me. You treat me well, but would not court me. Even when I offered myself to you, you would not make love to me.
“Do all the mercenaries have such strange personalities like you?”
Reign’s hand glided over Haylan’s face, from his eyebrows to his lips. When she touched Haylan’s lips, she saw the remnants of her red lipstick on his lips, and her heart skipped a beat.
She smiled and thought to herself, “This is totally unexpected. Who’d have thought that the domineering Haylan will be so adorable when he is sleeping?”
Ever since they met, Reign had known Haylan to be domineering, imperious, and aloof.
She had even gotten used to Haylan mistreating and bullying criminals,
Even if Haylan had a knife in his hands, she would think that he was dashing.
Every time they slept in the same room, whether it was in the hotel or on the cruise, Haylan would be the first one to get
Hence, that was the first time Reign saw Haylan sleeping!
Nonetheless, Haylan appeared even more dashing when he was deep in sleep. He was more endearing and calm.
