?Chapter 895:
“I’m feeling sleepy, Kaiden.”
After she yawned, Ellie looked adorable and a bit pitiful with her sleepy eyes.
Kaiden understood that she was inventing an excuse to let it slide.
This just got to him!
He stooped down, scooped her up horizontally, and ced her gently on therge bed in the main bedroom.
“Today, Marvin should give Baylee a piggyback ride,” Ellie suddenly said. “Her back was hurt. Marvin giving her a piggyback ride would make her morefortable.”
Kaiden furrowed his brow in confusion. “Don’t youdies like being carried more?”
Ellie was taken aback. “What?”
What gave these guys such a misconception?
“Well, you guys just…”
Seeing Kaiden’s eyebrows raise slightly, Ellie abruptly halted.
She swiftly suppressed the words she wanted to utter, tilted her head, and smiled. Then she slipped back under the quilt, leaving only her eyes with a smile visible, which looked especially lovely. “I’m sleeping!”
“Can you still sleep?”
Kaiden knelt on one knee at the edge of the bed.
After being teased like that, Ellie did feel less sleepy.
She imed she was tired, but it was clearly just a ploy.
Kaiden pulled her hand out from under the quilt and toyed with it.
Only twomps were lit in the bedroom, casting a dim, romantic yellow light. His features appeared cool and restrained in the light, but his eyes were particrly profound.
They seemed like the eyes of a giant beast in the abyss. Sensing the danger, Ellie attempted to retract her hand.

But her hand remained motionless.
“Ellie, men have their desires, you know,” Kaiden said, holding her fingertips and giving a charming smile. “Since you won’t write a self-critique review, do something else to help me cool down then.”
Ellie had no words. Was he only asking her to help him cool down? Come on! It was clear that he wanted her to fulfill his sexual desires!
The incident at the party involving Ellie, Baylee, and Aphrodite had spread widely within their circle. Everyone initially viewed it as a minor disagreement among the young women and as something to chat about when they had spare time. However, two dayster, Glenn bought two major projects that the Watts family had been set on acquiring, paying a hefty price. This left the Watts family unable to sell off their stocks and faced them with serious financial troubles.
None of the GT Group’s subsidiarypanies cooperated on projects involving the Watts family, causing their supply chain to break down. Seeking help through Quincy, the Watts family approached the Hill family, hoping they could rescue them in exchange for sacrificing profits. Marvin, however, tly rejected them, citing Aphrodite’s alleged insults and threats against the future Hill family hostess.
