Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 1081 Rescue and Reckoning "Your rescuer," the man's voice held a hint of arrogance as he waved his hand dismissively. "As I've mentioned before, you're not entitled to know my name." "Just bear in mind that your adversaries are Cherise and Damien. I'm someone who extended you aid, and that's the only thing you need to be aware of." After that, he presented Gwenn with a card containing a phone number. "In the future, should you ever require aid, feel free to dial this number." Gwenn accepted the card, her expression clouded with puzzlement, her eyes searching the enigmatic stranger's face for answers.

The stranger's response was cryptic, delivered with a nonchalant shrug. "No specific motive," he replied.

And it wasn't merely an observation; he had intervened to rescue her and provided a means for her to seek assistance from him in the future...

In light of all this, Gwenn couldn't help but wonder about the true intentions of this man...

"Do you harbor feelings for me?" she asked, her brow furrowing with curiosity.

Gwenn regarded herself to be just as appealing as Cherise, possessing a figure to rival hers. It was not uncommon for random passersby to be drawn to her, search for her details online, and offer assistance whenever she needed.

With a subtle tilt of her head, she widened her eyes at him, her words measured and deliberate. "In fact," she began, her tone tinged with a hint of playful flirtation, "I find you attractive. Since you've cto my aid, I'll offer you a chan-" "Take it." The man's interruption cut off Gwenn's sentence.
