Chapter 22
Threads of allure, tugging at his heartstrings.
A surge of restless fire shot straight to his lower belly, roaming through his body, turning into an unquenchable heat that surged out through his nostrils.
Remington jerked his head up.
Damn, what had grandmother give him to drink? His nosebleed was flowing as if he’s caught some dreadful disease!
Lizetta lay on the bed, phone in hand. Thinking of Lucian’s room being cleaned up, she decided to google some information about Lucian.
A flood of headlines popped up on the Internet.
#Seraphine Realm’s Racing Prodigy #
#A Whirlwind Life of the First F1 driver #
#Ardentia’s Most Promising Racer #
#23–year–old Lucian Bags a Milestone Point in His F1 Debut, Ready to Return Home#l
Lizetta’s lips curled up as she read, her eyes shining with pride, joy, and envious aspiration.
It wasn’t until she heard noise from the bathroom that she hurriedly flipped her phone face down on the nightstand, pulled the covers to feign sleep.
Remington, toweling off his hair, walked toward the bed, noticed the glowing phone screen, and reached out to

Lizetta, with her eyes closed, stiffened at the sound. Remington definitely knew she was faking sleep.

Lizetta opened her eyes to see his blurred figure leaning against the railing, his robe fluttering in the wild wind, with a dot of crimson at his fingertip.
Out there with the lightning and thunder, and he’s lighting up a smoke. When did his nicotine addiction ramp up?
She didn’t give it much thought and closed her eyes again. certain that Remington knew she was pretending to sleep.
The bed dipped behind her, but she didn’t pay it any mind.
After all, they had been married for two years, and even after their intimate moments, Remington would usually sleep in another room.
Tonight, with Fiona watching, they had to sleep together, but she was well aware of their boundaries, they would definitely sleep separately.
Just as she was about to fall into deep sleep again, the man’s strong arms suddenly wrapped around her waist from behind and gently pulled her in.
Lizetta was drawn into the man’s warm embrace, and through the thin fabric, she could clearly feel the scorching heat of his body and the firm lines of his chest and abs.
He had taken off his robe.
The man’s slightly hoarse voice was right by her ear, “Asleep?”
