Chapter 511 Taste Your Sweetness

Flora never expected her friend to say the same thing. Her already confused mind became even more muddled, and she couldn’t help but ask, “Why?”

Aletta pondered for a moment and replied, “This is something you need to figure out on your own…”

After all, matters of the heart require personal understanding before one can truly know.

“No, please tell me!” Flora’s tone was filled with anxiety.

Aletta remained unmoved and said, “I won’t tell you. Figure it out yourself. I need to sleep now. Goodnight!”

Then she ignored Flora completely!

Feeling dejected, Flora put down her phone and stared at the ceiling, desperately trying to comprehend. She thought until late into the night and, as she was about to fall asleep, a vague thought came to her.

“Could it be that Ray doesn’t like me?”

After putting away her phone, Aletta didn’t fall asleep immediately. Instead, she was thinking about Flora. She had always thought her best friend was intelligent, but she hadn’t expected her to be so oblivious when it came to matters of the heart. Perhaps it was because Flora was accustomed to

being carefree and not so attuned to subtleties?

Lost in her thoughts, she couldn’t help but ask Jason, “Do you think something might happen between them?”

Jason looked at the worried expression on the petite woman’s face and immediately pulled her into his embrace, saying. “From what I observed tonight, I don’t think there should be any problem. They seemed natural together, and Ray is someone who knows how to fight for what he wants. He’s well aware of his feelings for Flora and knows how to pursue her. So, you don’t need to worry about them.”

After saying this, he kissed Aletta’s forehead and said, “It’s late. Let’s sleep!”

With a flicker of thought, Aletta leaned in and returned the

kiss.

Jason raised an eyebrow at her and said, “So proactive tonight?”

“There’s a lingering taste of alcohol,” Aletta blinked and said, “Didn’t you brush your teeth and take a shower? Why hasn’t it faded away?”

“Do you want to taste it?” Jason stared at her crimson lips, his gaze intense, and asked.

Aletta locked eyes with him but didn’t answer.

But her expression already made it hard for Jason to control himself, so he lifted her chin and kissed her passionately.

The kiss, flavored with alcohol, seemed to possess an intoxicating charm.

Aletta’s mind became muddled, her whole body blushing, her eyes watery, as if she had just been thoroughly ravished.

Jason, feeling the urge but restraining himself, sighed and said, “When will this vegetarian period end?”

Aletta couldn’t help but chuckle.

The next day.

After having breakfast, Aletta went to Hill Group with Jason. She was eager to continue working on the perfume development she had left unfinished the previous day.

Jason didn’t stop her when he saw her restless state, but before she went, he issued a warning, “Only two hours! If you go over that, you’ll see what I do to you!”

Understanding his concern, Aletta raised her fingers and promised, “I guarantee I’ll stop after two hours.”

Seeing her obedient demeanor, Jason finally let her go and attended to his own tasks.

As soon as they separated, Aletta headed to the research and development department.

Upon entering, she noticed that Lotus wasn’t in her usual state today. It was a rare occurrence, and her complexion seemed a bit off, as if she hadn’t slept well.

Aletta was surprised and asked, “What’s wrong? You seemed fine when you left last night. Why do you look like this?”

Lotus was feeling down and lacked energy. When she heard Aletta’s voice, she only lifted her eyelids and sighed, “Don’t even mention it. I ran into a bothersome guy…”

Let’s start with last night.

Last night, she and Eaton were riding in a car together. Everything seemed fine, and the atmosphere was even good as they chatted away until they reached the entrance of the residential complex.

Once the car came to a stop, she bid farewell to Eaton and prepared to get out of the car.

But then, in the instant she opened the car door, she caught sight of a figure standing at the entrance of the complex.

It was a handsome man.

He was holding a bouquet of vibrant roses and dressed sharply in a suit.

However, Lotus froze on the spot.

In a split second, her face turned serious.
