“Don’t bother packing everything. You might be moving back soon,” Connor muttered.
Camila didn’t respond, silently taking a painting from the wardrobe.
“This is Peter’s painting. I’m not comfortable having such a valuable item in the new house. Keep it at your place.”
Connor stared at the painting titled “Legacy,” and his mind suddenly sparked an idea. There was a sly smile playing on his lips. This could definitely earn him some brownie points! “Alright, I’ll keep it in my bedroom for now.”
“You better take good care of it!” Camila instructed.
“Absolutely! This painting means a lot. I’ll take great care of it,” Connor promised earnestly, with a mischievous glint in his eyes. “I’ll come over tomorrow to help you move.”
Camila shook her head gently, smiling as she declined. “I’ve already called a moving company, and Erica will be helping too. It’s not a lot of stuff, and the two of us can handle it, so don’t bother coming over.”
When he heared this, Connor’s brow furrowed slightly, and his tone carried an almost imperceptible hint of displeasure. “Why is Erica always involved?”
Camila chuckled, finding Connor’s somewhat childish demeanor both adorable and amusing.
Connor knew he shouldn’t be so petty, but every time he saw Erica around her, he couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy.
The next morning.
At the hotel.
“I’m leaving soon. I’m going to see my bestie,” Erica said casually while applying makeup.
“I’m coming too,” Logan said as he got out of bed and leaned on Erica’s shoulder, whining.
“She’s moving today.” Erica turned to look at Logan. Her brow furrowed slightly and her tone was
dismissive. “You can’t lift a finger or shoulder a load. You’d be no help there.”
At this, Logan gave a suggestive smile, “Do you still have the energy to move today?”
Erica huffed, rolling her eyes at him. “Aren’t you overestimating yourself a bit?”
“Let’s try again?” Logan’s kiss gently landed on Erica’s neck, filled with teasing and flirtation.
Erica’s cheeks were tinged pink. She gently pushed Logan’s face away, playfully scolding him. “Stop it. I’ve got serious things to handle today.”
Erica’s bashful expression made a
strong desire surge within Logan He
held her hand tightly, and his gaze was intense and passionate. Erica, ditch your bestie for me.”
Feeling the strong masculine aura emanating from Logan, Erica was momentarily distracted and flustered. She glared at Logan “Get lost. You come after my bestie in priorities. Be sensible.” Ads by PubFuture
Logan chuckled helplessly, gently pinching Erica’s cheek. “I have to meet this amazing friend of yours. Why does she rank higher than me?”
Erica laughed at Logan’s comment. She gently patted his hand. “Alright, but you promise not to cause any trouble.”
“Yes, my queen. I promise no mischief, just obedience.” Logan stood straight, and his tone was earnest.
Erica nodded in satisfaction, glanced at the time, and urged him. “Hurry up and get dressed. We need to leave soon. I’m only giving you ten minutes to get ready.”
Logan immediately sprang into action. He quickly dressed and finished grooming.
Walking over to Erica, he wrapped his arms around her, and lightly kissed her forehead.
“Let’s go,” Erica said with a smile.
