Eden smiled brightly and patted on the seat next to him. "Come and sit with me."


    Dominic looked at Eden with an extremely cold gaze. Vespera smiled and refused, "I can stand.


    "It''s tiring to stay standing. Take a seat." Eden waved at Vespera again.


    "Alright then." Vespera had no choice but to agree. Naturally, she didn''t sit next to Eden. Instead, she took a seat near Dominic.


    Eden crossed his legs and leaned against the chalt. His posture was rxed, giving off a carefree demeanor. With a smile, he looked at Vespera, seemingly interested in her. "For some reason, you look familiar. Let''s drop the formalities and be friends."


    Vespera was at a loss for words. She thought it would have been better if Eden kept her at arm''s length. Although sheined in her heart, she thought that it only benefited her if she had a good rtionship with him.


    Besides, he was Dominic''s friend. Rejecting him was disrespectful toward Dominic.


    "Mr. Locke, you''re too kind." Vespera smiled politely.


    "Why are you still calling me Mr. Locke? Just call me Eden.''


    When Dominic was about to intervene, he heard Vespera call out, "Eden."


    Vespera gritted her teeth, and the way she smiled looked like she was about to bite someone. Upon noticing that, Dominic was speechless. He found her to be adaptable.


    "That sounds better. Vespera, promise me that when you have a boyfriend next time, you have to bring him to me. I''ll give him a gift." Eden chuckled happily.


    Vespera thought Dominic was insane upon hearing his words. Meanwhile, Dominic was at a loss for words.


    It was 9:00 pm when they came out of the club, and Eden made Dominic hang out with him at his winery.


    In response Dominic said, "I have to return to Halewick."


    "Who''s in Halewick? Why are you in such a hurry to go back? Listen to me, and stay for one night." Then, Eden wrapped his arm around Dominic''s shoulders and leaned closer. "It''s a long night. I''ll arrange a romantic surprise for you two so that your rtionship can improve.


    "No need."


    "There''s no use in only confessing your love. If you''re not proactive enough, how can you make her fall for you?"


    Dominic smiled but remained silent.


    Vespera stood at the back and watched the two being close to each other. She wondered if Eden would force her to treat Dominic like they were close friends too.


    No, she couldn''t ept such a thing! Why were the attacks getting stronger? The most important thing was how could two tall men be such a good match?


    Dominic shrugged off Eden''s arm. "I''m not staying. Let''s hang out again next time."


    Seeing that Dominic was adamant about leaving Eden didn''t continue to insist. "Alright then. I''ll look for you when I go to Halewick next time."


    After that, he turned and gave Vespera a meaningful smile with a yful wink. "Vespera, you have toe with your boyfriend next time."


    Vespera was speechless. She thought that Eden''s words were a bit strange. Alright," she said, offering a polite smile in return.


    Then, Dominic and Vespera got into the car. When they boarded the ne after going to the airport from the club, it was already almost midnight.


    Vespera didn''t have much sleep recently and had done tons of work. She was severely drained. both mentally and physically.


    After boarding the ne, she didn''t have any other work to do. So, she sat on the chair at the back and closed her eyes to take a nap. She was exhausted.


    "Ms. Gildon, do you want to eat anything?" Dominic asked.


    As he didn''t receive any response, he turned and realized that Vespera had already fallen asleep on her seat.


    He got up and grabbed a nket before walking up to her and putting the nket


    on her. When he was about to return to his ce, his gazended on her pink


    lips.
