Chapter 38


    Chapter 38


    Mike bought this ce twenty years ago. He loved the beautiful and secluded surroundings, so he


    spent a lot to build roads, bring electricity, and create a vi. Every year, he woulde to rx and


    enjoy some peaceful days.


    The helicopter dropped them off at the vi and departed, scheduled to return in two days.


    Jaydon checked his phone, no signal. I knew it!’ he said inwardly Supposedly, they were here to


    rx, but it felt more like being trapped on a deserted ind.


    Entering the vi, they found it empty but


    clean. Mike must have had someone clean it before their arrival.


    “Where is everyone?” Annabel ced her suitcase down and scanned the surroundings.


    “Who else would be on this deserted ind? Just us four for the next two days.” Jaydon nced at


    his sister before leisurely strolling inside. Alita caught up and walked alongside him.


    Annabel picked up her luggage again, leading Kim inside. “No servants either? Who’s preparing our


    meals for the next two days?”


    “Obviously, we’ll be cooking for ourselves,” Jaydon said without looking back, heading upstairs.


    “No way, I can’t cook. Why did Grandpa arrange things like this? Annabelined.


    Alita stayed silent. She headed upstairs with Jaydon to their room and ced their luggage down.


    Then, she walked to the window. The jungle stretched outside, apanied by a small stream. The


    air was very fresh.


    With just the two of them in the room, it was easy to imagine what might happen. But just when


    things were heating up, the door was forcefully pushed open.


    “Jaydon, ah, sorry!” Annabel shouted and quickly turned away. She mmed the door shut and


    returned to her room.


    Seeing her flustered, Kim asked, “What happened?”


    “Jaydon and Alita are so impatient… When I went in, they were in the middle of that,” said Annabel.


    Kim froze and tightened his grip on the cup. His heart raced in pain.


    “Kim, you don’t look well. Are you okay?” Annabel approached.


    raf


    “Yeah, I’m fine.” Kim held her hand and gave her a faint smile.


    Annabel hugged him. “Kim, you love me, right?”


    “Of course. I could never not love you,” Kim replied with a smile. However, his eyes were filled with


    coldness.


    “Yeah. I love you too. Annabel hugged him tighter, smiling happily. However, her eyes shed with a


    hint of viciousness. “Alita, Kim is mine, and you better not try to seduce him, she thought.


    As the night fell, Alita returned to the vi. The three upstairs had note down yet. She walked


    into the kitchen and opened the fridge. It was filled with ingredients.


    She tied her hair back, put on an apron, and took out some ingredients. Even if they decided not to


    eat, she couldn’t let herself starve. She cooked the pasta in the pot and began preparing other


    dishes.


    Suddenly, someone covered her eyes. Startled, she asked, “Who is it?”

    A gentle voice sounded behind her. “When you can’t see anything, just close your eyes and give me


    your hands. I’ll guide you


    to the light.”


    Alita recognized the voice. She hesitated for a moment and then struggled. “Kim, let go of me. I’m


    married. What do you want? Jaydon is upstairs; if he sees this, he’ll kill you.” The salt shaker


    dropped to the floor as she tried to push away his hand.
