The work with Sophia was not yet complete, and Alexei knew that no matter how urgent Natasha was, she would not abandon the agreed–upon work halfway.

However, Natasha was no longer the helpless six–year–old girl she once was.

She would do her part, and he would naturally uncover everything hidden from her past.

Natasha smiled, her eyes filled with a gentle light. “Alexei.”

She looked up from his embrace and kissed him on the lips. “Among all the unpleasant past events, the best thing was meeting you.”

Alexei also lowered his head and kissed her back. “Me too.”

Their eyes met, and they smiled, embracing each other tightly.

‘Do you want to get up?” he asked her.

Alexei was afraid she would get a headache from sleeping too long.

But Natasha asked back, “When are you leaving?”

She knew he had been busy with the Westwood family’s affairs lately, and that being able to take time to come to Nornytaar was definitely time he squeezed out.

Alexei reluctantly buried his head in her neck, taking a deep breath. “My flight is in 8 hours.”

Natasha touched the dark circles under his eyes. “Don’t get up. Will you stay in bed with me?”

Alexei chuckled. Then he kissed her deeply on the lips again.

He pulled the blanket over both of them, and they lay intimately nestled together.

That day, Alexei still only slept for three hours.

Natasha only took a half–day leave in the morning. In the afternoon, she had to go to work at the dance troupe, where many people were waiting for her.

Coincidentally, Alexei also wanted to see her work environment, so he went along with her. Later, they would go directly from the theater to the airport.

Knowing that the major investor was coming, Sophia specifically arranged for everyone to
