"Wipe your drool," Kenneth reminded her with a laugh.

Ophelia instinctively touched the corner of her mouth. Kenneth grinned teasingly at her. "If you like my muscles, I'll show you every day."

Ophelia nodded, thinking, I can't get enough of him anyway.

During breakfast, Ophelia glanced at the time. "Do you have plans today? You can't accompany me for the weekend, can you?" She had secretly checked Kenneth's schedule earlier. He was going on a business trip to Shinova this weekend. She wanted to bring it up first to dodge any potential "tantrum" from him.

You seem happy with it?" Kenneth sipped his coffee, his sharp eyes narrowing as he scrutinized her.

I'm not. Ophelia lowered her head, pretending to look unhappy. "You promised that the weekend would be mine."

"Alright, then I'll call Mark and have him go alone." With that, Kenneth picked up his phone to dial.

"Wait...don't," Ophelia leaned forward, quickly pressing down on his hand. "You spent the past weekends with me, and Mark has had it tough enough."

"Are you sure you want to pity other men in front of me? Hmm Kenneth lifted Ophelia's chin, looking straight into her

eyes.

At that moment, Mark entered through the door, wearing a light gray wool coat. He had styled his hair differently, with deep brown strands shimmering in the sunlight. "Mr. Sinclair, the plane is ready."

Seeing the intimate posture between Ophelia and Kenneth at the dining table, Mark realized he had come at the wrong time. When his gaze met Kenneth's, he felt a chill run down his back. He thought, Please don't send me alone again.'

During this period, Mark had been working tirelessly, handling all matters. Although he received a doubled annual salary, he feared he might not make it. He looked at Ophelia with a pleading expression.
