&#lt;p&#gt;&#lt;p/&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;This time, Sylvie was startled, not understanding what he meant.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;He remained silent!
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;After a moment, she opened her mouth and said, “I’m meeting someone later, you go back on your
own!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;But when she finished her words, Marley caught her body and gave her a big hug. She was enveloped
in the arms that felt both strong and warm, but at the same time carried a tinge of pain.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;She could smell the tobacco on his body which she liked, and she heard him saying in her ears,
“Sylvie, let’s spend our lives together properly!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Hmm?” She frowned, a little puzzled.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“It doesn’t matter what was the reason we got married, we still have to go through our days together,
let’s spend our lives together properly!” He said in a deep voice.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;She was stunned for a second, nodded her head, and replied softly, “Alright!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;She was hesitant, in her heart was an unspeakable sense of doubt. For Marley, she could spend her
life with him. But for him, would he really be willing to spend his life with her? Sylvie wasn’t sure about
this! She was really worried that he would send her to the clouds, then let her fall back to the ground on
her own. She was afraid that she would be shattered then!
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Where is your meeting? I’ll send you over!” He had gotten her answer in the affirmative, and he
lowered his voice. “Then tell me quickly, after telling me, then let’s go home! Life has been tough, I had
already let the servants home to rest. You have to cook for me! Simple dishes just like last time! I want
to eat that!”&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p/&#gt;

&#lt;p/&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;He had never spoken so much to her before, for a moment she almost couldn’t accept it, but she
couldn’t help but smile and nod. “Oh! Alright!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;What type of man was he exactly? What was he really thinking?
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;When he brought her out this afternoon to buy the bangle, he had paid on credit terms! He obviously
didn’t have much money, but he still bought the expensive bangle, what’s more he even kissed her on
the car, and the kiss had felt sincere.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;After that, at the CEO’s rest room, his bossy but gentle hug, the lingering passion in the afternoon, had
made her feel so confused. She was afraid that when she started liking him more and more, and when
he reciprocated to her feelings, she would become more and more greedy. Maybe from then on her
heart wouldn’t belong to her anymore!
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Moreover, it was as if she could never figure out whether he really liked her, or whether it was only
because she was Cassius’s granddaughter?
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;She didn’t dare to think about it, but still couldn’t help thinking about it.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;If she couldn’t have the whole of his heart, she would rather not have any of it!
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;As for her, she had to be rational, rational! Yes, she couldn’t afford to lose herself!
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Those kisses and the lingering passion would lead people to misunderstand. She was telling herself,
that’s the responsibility between husband and wife. Yes, even if they were a fake couple, they still had
this responsibility! She would not shirk from her responsibilities.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Only because, she had no other choice.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“What are you thinking about?” Marley’s voice rang next to her ear.&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p/&#gt;

&#lt;p/&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Thinking of you.” Sylvie whispered.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Marley’s dark eyes turned even darker like ink, it was almost like the passion they had felt this
afternoon.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;She lowered her head, and thought that this was too straightforward. Afraid that he would
misunderstand, she quickly explained, “I’m thinking of why you’re acting so strangely, you didn’t use to
be like this!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“How was I like in the past?” He let go of her, his gaze still on her.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;She flushed slightly, “In the past you were always so serious!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Then do you mean that I’m not serious now?”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Yea!” She suddenly realized that she was finding trouble for herself!
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;He hugged her tightly again.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“There’s a camera in the lift!” She reminded him softly, her eyes anxious.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;His aura enclosed her, she felt even more anxious, she wanted to escape from him, but he held her
even tighter.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“What happens in the lift stays here, no one will expose it, don’t worry!” He said in her ears, his voice
lowered, it felt particularly intimate. His warm breath was in her ears, and she could feel her neck
burning.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Oh!” She replied quietly.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;The lift reached the first floor very quickly, Marley couldn’t not take care of his own image. He let go of
Sylvie, and both of them walked out from the lift.&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p/&#gt;

&#lt;p/&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;In the lobby at the first floor, when the staff saw the CEO and his wife, all of them immediately stood up
straight, as if army officers on duty, and uniformly called out: “Sir!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Thanks for your hard work everyone!” Marley gave a light smile, giving an unusual reply.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;At that moment, everyone’s jaws dropped.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“CEO is so cool!” Some exclaimed.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“He actually replied! He used to only nod his head, but he actually said something this time!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“My god! He became even more handsome, he looks so good when he smiles!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Sylvie followed behind him in small footsteps, his back was tall and strong, and his profile looked like a
perfect sculpture, it was so dazzling that people’s hearts couldn’t help but throb.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;All the female staff exclaimed in excitement, but Marley didn’t care about them at all. Sylvie exclaimed
silently in her heart, he really drove women crazy, perhaps these types of guys are what the devil
meant?!
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;The two of them walked out from the plaza, and Marley said quietly to her, “I’ll go get the car, you wait
here!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Sylvie!” A call suddenly came from outside the plaza.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Sylvie raised her head to look over, and saw Ryan, he was standing next to his slick sports car, and
waving his hands at Sylvie!
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Marley frowned, and looked towards the direction of Ryan. His eyes narrowed, his eyes carried a silent
danger to them, but that disappeared in a flash.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;He lowered his head to take a look at Sylvie, and she was also looking at him.&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p/&#gt;

&#lt;p/&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Oh! I’ll head over, will be done in a few minutes!” Sylvie said to Marley.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Okay!” He nodded his head, but passed the bag in his hands to Sylvie, those were the four bangles
that he had paid on credit terms, Sylvie felt that this present was a little heavy. She felt that if she
accepted this present, it would seem like she was a gold-digger.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Marley said, “Go ahead, five minutes! Finish in five minutes, then we’ll head home!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Okay!” She nodded, and walked towards Ryan.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;At that moment, Tyler also walked out, and the staff in the plaza also all walked out. They saw that
outside the plaza, was a tall and handsome man that was standing next to a slick sports car, his
posture was lazy but cool. What was even more surprising was that their Lady CEO, Secretary Sylvie
was walking towards him.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;When Sylvie reached him, Ryan smilingly opened the passenger car door for her, and Sylvie got in,
followed by Ryan.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Oh dear! Who is that man? Why did she get onto another man’s car?” Somebody exclaimed in
surprise.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Yea! Secretary Sylvie got onto another man’s car, that man is also so handsome!” Maisy had caught a
glimpse of Sylvie getting onto Ryan’s sports car.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Really! Secretary Sylvie is so popular! Around her are all handsome men!” Aila’s crisp voice was
turned up a notch. It was getting a little painful on the ears. Her beautiful eyes sized up the car from top
to bottom, with a cynical smile on her lips she said, “What a great tactic, the CEO got taken down by
her so quickly!”&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p/&#gt;

&#lt;p/&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Erm! I don’t think Secretary Sylvie has any tactics, she is very low-profile. I like Secretary Sylvie, I’m
glad she became the wife of the CEO, and I’m happy it was her and not anyone else.” Daria stated
matter-of-factly by the side.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Yea! Me too. Aila, Secretary Sylvie is the wife of the CEO, she is the official wife!” Hearing Aila’s tone,
Maisy frowned, and reminded her about the situation, “She is also Hughes Group’s benefactor!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Haha! Is that so! Hughes Group’s benefactor, the CEO’s benefactor! Then without her, we would all be
jobless.” Hearing Maisy’s words, Aila returned to her usual expression, and gave a laugh. “I was just
exclaiming, Secretary Sylvie really considering the CEO’s feelings. How can she get on to a stranger’s
car right in front of Hughes Group’s doorstep!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Her words were neither strong nor light, but it carried a hint of sarcasm, and on her pretty face carried
an awe-inspiring expression that seemed to say that Sylvie had cheated on Marley.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“She’s only getting on the car, not getting on the bed! Oh dear, this is also in public, what more can
there be?” Maisy burst out in laughter, “We’re heading off! Daria, what should we eat?”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Hotpot! I feel like eating hotpot!” Daria said.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Alright! Let’s go!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Aila, are you joining us?”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“I’m meeting someone else at night!” Aila looked like she didn’t have anywhere to vent her anger, she
turned around, and headed outside the plaza. At the moment she turned around, her gaze that was on
Ryan’s car turned sinister.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Marley!” Tyler also saw this scene, and chased after Marley hastily. “Your wife got on another man’s
car!”&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p/&#gt;

&#lt;p/&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“I know!” Marley replied coldly, he didn’t like the valet picking up his car for him, he usually held the car
keys on his own.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Yea! Ryan is a very outstanding guy, what’s more he is staying in the same condominium as Secretary
Sylvie, their relationship must be special!” Tyler eyes were looking strange, his lips carried a sly smile,
his gazed at Marley.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“What do you want to say?” Marley glanced at Tyler, who was smiling cunningly. Although he had an
evil smile on him, Marley knew he had his interests at heart, so Marley only gave him a cold look.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Just reminding you! Flirting should be stopped at the budding stage! A single spark can start a fire,
better not let the spark spread, it might become a raging fire, and you wouldn’t be able to put it out
then!” Tyler laughed slyly.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“I think you have too much free time on you!” Marley shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or
cry.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“No, I’m alright!” Tyler laughed. “But if I don’t look for a young girl tonight, then it would hurt!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Be careful of AIDS!” He reminded him too.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Don’t worry, I have safety precautions!” Tyler winked, and the both of them walked towards their own
cars.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;In Ryan’s car, Ryan saw the bag in Sylvie’s hand, and asked in surprise, “What’s that?”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Sylvie replied, “It’s jewellery!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Marley gave it to you?” Ryan raised his eyebrows.
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Yea!” Sylvie nodded.&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p/&#gt;

&#lt;p/&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;Ryan’s eyes had an unspeakable deepness to it, he trembled in surprise, his eyes flickered, but he
returned calm very quickly. He fished out a few cards for Sylvie, “Sylvie, what you wanted are all here.
There! For you!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“300 million?” Sylvie’s beautiful eyes widened, “Ryan, you really have 300 million?”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“I have just enough, I’m giving you my whole life assets. Sylvie, I am just a little architect who opened a
small workshop. How much money would I have, I only have enough to support the family, I’m giving all
of this to you. In the future you must help me with the drawings properly, if not I will be broke very
soon!”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“I’m sorry! Ryan!” Sylvie felt guilty immediately. “I will return it to you! But you’re not a little architect,
you are a big name in the architectural field.”
&#lt;/p&#gt;
&#lt;p&#gt;“Silly girl! Isn’t it also just an architect.” Ryan reached out and ruffled Sylvie’s hair, “I’m just teasing you!
I don’t need much for just eating and sleeping every day, what’s more I’ve drawn so many drawings all
these years, I would definitely have some spare cash, so take them! No need to pay them back so
quickly, if you have to pay, it’s also Hughes Group who should be paying!”&#lt;/p&#gt;
