Gifford was a punctual man. He said he would be back in ten minutes, and within eight minutes, he was ringing Chantel’s room doorbell.

Chantel had just had her hair dried as she walked to the door on her phone with Edward, a man from Violet Eagles. After making sure that it was Gifford standing outside, she opened the door to let him in. “I can’t go tomorrow afternoon either. I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it there this time. Let’s talk again soon if anything happens… Okay,” she said into her phone.

Closing the door behind him, Gifford took off his uniform jacket and hung it on the clothes rack nearby.

Once she ended the call, she kept holding her phone nervously while looking at the man now loosening his tie. “Well… did you have dinner?”

“No.” It was getting dark and he had just come from M Country.

So she suggested, “How about we order room service?” She didn’t eat anything either and was planning to eat rice noodles alone after taking a shower.

Putting his tie aside, Gifford looked at her with an unreadable expression.

“Do you think I’m here for dinner?” he asked. ‘No, I think you’re here to eat me, ‘ she thought.

“So, come here!” Gifford crooked his finger at her.

With a flip of her long hair, Chantel put her phone on the table and walked towards him.

She thought he would say something else, but he didn’t. He just held her in his arms and kissed her on the lips.

After a while, he said, “Take a shower with me.” He had been out the whole day and was afraid she wouldn’t like to be with him if he stank.

After all, she smelled so good. Despite having just had a shower, she complied and followed him into the bathroom.

After a long bath, Gifford carried Chantel back to the bedroom in his arms. Her long hair, which she had previously dried while he was out, was completely soaked again.

Putting her on the bed, Gifford told her, “Lie down. I’ll dry your hair.”

He had dried her hair twice while she was in the Li family house, both after a late-night shower. At the time, she had been so sleepy that she could barely open her eyes, so he had to do it since her hair was still wet.

Now the situation didn’t look much different either. With a nod, Chantel hung her long hair on the bedside and closed her eyes as she enjoyed him drying her hair.

After he was done, she had already fallen asleep but ended up woken up by him.

When she opened her eyes, she looked at him in a daze. Noticing how sleepy she really was, Gifford didn’t have the heart to ask her to go out with him. Instead, he sat do

ement online, informing that they would be suing the haters who slandered Chantel.

As soon as Matthew took action, the haters were forced to take criminal responsibilities for their statements. At the same time, the main person behind them was exposed.

It was all an open strife held inside the entertainment industry. The whole thing was planned by a random female star who was jealous of Chantel.

The actress was immediately banned from all walks of life for daring to lead the gossip to Matthew Huo.

As for Chantel, since she had chosen to become an actress, she had mentally got herself ready for the many ways she could be exposed to the media. Therefore, three months later, the news that she had gone to the hospital for an examination was also released to the press.

“Wow! Chantel was spotted in the gynecology department of a hospital. Is she pregnant?”

“Her belly seems slightly swollen. I’m sure she’s pregnant.”

Meanwhile, at the Li family’s house, Gifford had Chantel locked in their room and didn’t let her go anywhere.

Then he took out their marriage licenses from his coat’s pocket and threw them on the table in front of her. “Take a photo! And post it online!”

Gifford couldn’t help but feel depressed. He wondered why she refused to make their relationship public.

Last time they were photographed getting in the hotel together, she refused to make any statement about their marriage. Now that she was pregnant again, she still had no plans of making it public either. If she didn’t finally make things clear, he wouldn’t let her out that door today!

Blair knocked on their door and said anxiously, “Gifford, don’t do anything stupid. Talk things out with Chantel.”
