Phoebe didn’t know how they managed to move in without even saying a word. Were they so confident that everyone knew Vanessa wanted to intrude into her and Theodore’s marriage? Phoebe stood up, about to speak, when she saw Theodore coming down from upstairs. He didn’t seem surprised at all to see Vanessa and the others coming over.

“Here you are. Did everything get sorted with the production team?” Theodore walked to Vanessa’s side, taking the suitcase from her hand. “I’ll carry it up for you.”

“They’re all set.” Vanessa stepped aside, watching him lift the suitcase, the veins on the back of his hand popping out, very sexy. She just took a few more glances. Theodore noticed her gaze and asked, “What are you looking at?” Vanessa reached out and poked his arm where the muscles were firm, speaking loudly enough for everyone to hear, “I’m looking at your prominent blood vessels, it’s very sexy.”

That comment had some teasing implications. Ruby, being the loyal couple fan, was about to continue, but Vanessa stopped her. Observing from a close distance, she desperately shouted in her mind: “Vanessa, well done, keep seducing him.” Theodore didn’t even blink his eyes as he quickly walked upstairs with his luggage in hand.

His strides were large and steady, and Vanessa had to jog to keep up with him. By the time she caught up to the guest room, Theodore had already placed his luggage inside.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Vanessa quickly reached out and grabbed his wrist. “Theodore, I’m a little hungry. Can you accompany me for a late-night snack later?”

It was difficult for Theodore to refuse her request, so he nodded, “Sure.” Vanessa’s heart was ecstatic, but she calmly let go of his hand and smiled, “Then I’ll finish tidying up and call you.” “Mmhm.” Ruby carried her luggage up and saw Theodore passing by her downstairs. She quickly ran to Vanessa’s side and happily asked, “Did Theodore agree?”

“Mmhm, I’m going to change clothes.” Seeing Vanessa dart lightly into the room, Ruby promptly followed. The thought of Vanessa going for a late-night snack with Theodore made her very happy!

Theodore went downstairs and saw Phoebe still organizing her luggage. He walked over and stood next to her for a while before casually asking, “How about going for a late-night snack later?”

Phoebe rolled her eyes and said, “Just had roasted chicken. Can you even eat more?” Theodore wasn’t accustomed to having late-night snacks, but suddenly he had the whim to have one. Could it be Vanessa’s suggestion?

Thinking about Vanessa’s deliberate seduction earlier, he glanced at the back of his hand, feeling a sourness in his heart as he looked. Phoebe closed her suitcase, took two steps to the side, and said to Theodore, “Can you help me carry it? Is it heavy?” Theodore silently looked at her.

Perhaps he had been treated as a handyman this afternoon, as she now ordered him around quite naturally. Phoebe patted the suitcase, urging him, “Hurry up.”

Theodore pursed his lips and, under her imploring gaze, walked to the suitcase. He bent down, lifted it, tested the weight, and was about to put it down when Phoebe stopped him. “Wait a moment.”

Theodore didn’t move, his gaze dropping to look at her. He saw her staring at the back of his hand and even poking the vein that popped up, muttering to herself, “Where’s the sexiness? Can’t see it at all. Strange.”

He placed the suitcase back on the ground, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her into his embrace. “I’ve noticed that you seem to be less afraid of me lately.”

Caught off guard, Phoebe bumped into his chest, and the overt scent of masculinity sprayed across her face. She quickly stood in place only to realize that he firmly imprisoned her waist.

Their bodies fit together tightly, the thin fabric of summer clothing offering no barrier. Phoebe could even feel the scorching heat radiating from his body.
