Chapter 888: Grand Aunt Returns

Tina yawned lightly, feeling unusually sleepy tonight. She decided to rest and recharge early.

Leaning her head against the passenger seat, she closed her eyes to rest. "Uncle, wake me when we arrive," she murmured softly.

Jared drove the car toward the outskirts. Seeing Tina's peaceful, sleeping face, he carefully opened the car door without making a sound. Gently, he scooped her out of the passenger seat, holding her close. The chilly evening wind prompted him to take off his jacket and drape it over her.

Carrying Tina in his arms, Jared walked step by step toward a distant hilltop. His tall, striking figure stood out against the night.

When Tina opened her eyes, she was still cradled in Jared's arms. She removed his jacket, wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, and nuzzled against his chest like a contented cat.

Jared chuckled softly and led her to sit at the top of the hill, holding her close. "Awake?" he asked gently.

Tina rubbed against his chest again before turning her back to lean on him. Her voice was soft and sweet. "Why are we here? Weren't we going to the villa?"

Jared's lips brushed her ear, his voice low and tempting. "I was afraid you wouldn't make it back to the Pace family before dawn. It wouldn't look good if you were late."

Tina chuckled quietly, amused by his reasoning. Images from her memories flashed through her mind, and she couldn't help but lick the corner of her lips.

Her delicate hands undid his belt and slipped under his shirt, exploring his firm muscles with a playful smile.

"Uncle's muscles... feel so good to touch!"

Jared's face flushed slightly, but he indulged her without protest, bearing his inner turmoil alone.
