?Chapter 625:


    The mere thought of Jeffry’s actions sent her pulse racing.


    Biting her lip, she whispered, “Please don’t. It’s not clean.”


    Despite her protest, Jeffry’s tongue ventured further, exploring deeply. His movements were deliberate, mimicking deeper intimacy, while his fingers skillfully teased her, applying just the right amount of pressure.


    Lydia’s body trembled, her head tilting back as waves of intense pleasure washed over her, overwhelming her senses. A gentle stream of warm liquid flowed freely.


    Jeffry lifted his head to look at Lydia, whose face gleamed with satisfaction. Still immersed in the aftereffects of her climax, she radiated warmth, her lips full and flushed red.


    As her senses gradually returned and her eyes slowly opened, she met Jeffry’s intense gaze, and a wave of shyness washed over her. She had reached climax unexpectedly quickly. A shy flutter of her eyshes followed. Jeffry reached to lift her face toward him, aiming for a kiss.


    Lydia turned her head away, murmuring dismissively, “Stop. That’s not clean.”


    A glint of humor appeared in Jeffry’s eyes. “Even though it’s yours, you’re disgusted?”


    He gently guided Lydia’s head back and kissed her passionately.


    Still feeling aroused, Jeffry patiently waited for Lydia to recover before moving with sudden force.


    The room filled with the closeness of their intimacy.


    By the time December came, the fallen leaves in the had long been scattered.


    Residents wrapped in thick coats walked the streets under a sky washed of color, bleak and lifeless.


    Shooting for A Dream Within a Dream had wrapped up.


    Typically, the promotional campaign would be running at full speed by now, but instead, everything was unusually quiet.


    Unable to hide her concern, Francesca turned to Devonte and asked, “When do we start the promotion? The release is scheduled for the end of the year, right? We need to begin soon, or it’ll be toote.”


    She cherished A Dream Within a Dream, a novel close to her heart. This film held great significance for her, and she was eager for it to reach its audience.

    Devonte frowned slightly before quickly stering a smile. “I’m surprised by how passionate you are about work. Don’t you think a little rest would be refreshing?”


    Francesca’s face grew serious. “Shouldn’t you be more attentive? Time’s running out, and without promotion, we’re risking a lot.”


    Devonte let out a silent sigh. It wasn’t due to any carelessness on his part. In fact, he felt more pressure than Francesca. With a significant investment at risk, the film was a huge gamble for him. Approval for the promotional activities was still pending. He had submitted the necessary requests well in advance, yet the executives hadn’t approved them, leaving his hands tied. Despite several personal visits, Devonte hadn’t managed to meet with any of them.


    He forced a cheerful smile to keep Francesca from worrying. “Francesca, there’s no reason to be concerned. Just rx at home, and we’ll call you when it’s time to begin the promotions.”


    Devonte yfully tousled Francesca’s hair, causing her perfectly styled hairstyle to fall out of ce.


    Francesca stormed off, clearly upset.


    The moment Francesca was gone, Devonte frantically reached out to Elena for assistance.
