"Come with me to Moonlight."


    "Sure thing."


    Since he didn''t bring it up again, she figured she''d just roll with it. Inside, she couldn''t help but admire how thoughtful Dn was. It seemed like she ought to return the favor someday.


    As she wheeled him into the elevator, she bent over to say something, but the doors slid open to reveal a young man.


    The guy shed a smile at Dn. "Dn, what a coincidence."


    This was Lincoln, one of the two sons of Dn''s third brother, Lucius, standing just outside the elevator.


    Lincoln''s eyesnded on ra, and he gave a slight smirk. "So this is Ms. ra. Who would''ve thought you and Ms. ra would get along so well?"


    The moment he showed up, the whole vibe in the elevator shifted to tense.


    What was Lincoln doing at Ferguson Corporation? Over the years, Dn had bought up lots ofpanies, and Walter sent the younger ones in the family to various branches to get some experience. Right now, only Dn, a few of the older folks, and Simon were at the main office.


    Dn''s tone was cool. "Need something?"


    Lincoln had already stepped into the elevator, keeping up appearances. "Just checking in on Simon. Wondering if his wedding''s still on track. As a cousin, naturally, I''m curious. Dn, I''ll catch youter."


    ra had thought about mentioning Simon wasn''t around, but she didn''t really know Lincoln. Plus, there was something about him that rubbed her the wrong way.


    Lincoln''s gaze felt like a lurking snake, ready to pounce. Out of the whole Ferguson crew, Dn was the one she found most reassuring.


    This time, she drove Dn''s car, helping him into the passenger seat while muttering under her breath. "No way the wedding''s getting canceled, right?"


    Dn watched her as she leaned over, trying to secure his seatbelt. Yet, despite her efforts, the buckle just wouldn''t click, and she started to sweat from the effort. Just as she was fumbling, arge hand covered hers and with a gentle push, the buckle snapped into ce.


    ra froze, feeling the warmth of his hand. She quickly retreated to her seat, hands steady on the wheel.


    Was it just her imagination, or was Dn acting a bit strange? Recently, she''d grown closer to Z, and she wasn''t as clueless about these subtle gestures between men and women as she used to be.


    She sat in silence, then heard him ask, "How are things going with your boyfriend?"


    A smile crept onto ra''s face. She hadn''t seen his face yet, but Z gave her a different vibe, like aforting, affectionate golden retriever. Sometimes, that clingy sweetness in a partner just gives you a sense of pride.


    "Really well."


    "Have you thought about meeting his parents?"


    ra hadn''t seen that questioning. She drove in silence for a bit before speaking honestly. "Haven''t thought about it yet. Want to get to know each other better first. So far, things are good."


    When ites to the sex part, things were indeed going smoothly. In adult rtionships, there aren''t as many twists and turns; getting along in bed often beats what most couples experience. Many girls put up with unsatisfying sex life because they love their partners, but ra couldn''t. She loved feeling taken and relished that clingy sweetness. If needed, she''d just work harder to support him.


    Dn turned his head, noticing the warmth in her eyes and the involuntary smile on her lips. He shifted his gaze to the window, resting a hand on his cheek to hide his own smile.
