Meanwhile, seated inside the ck Bentley, Bary suddenly eximed, “Stop the car. The driver
in the front seat quickly pulled over.
Linden, sitting in the passenger seat, turned around puzzledly and looked at Bary with caution.
“What’s wrong, Mr. Covington?”
“You two are off duty. Get out
it of the car immediately, and then take a cab home. Thepany will reimburse your expenses,”
Bary said.
Earlier, an impolite business partner had arranged a “surprise for Bary in the private room.
Bary had left impassively after seeing it. He had been silent since getting in the car, until
receiving a phone call half a minute ago. When he suddenly shouted “stop the car,” Linden thought
he was going to explode in anger.
Upon hearing Bary’s words, Linden quickly got out of the car with the driver. Bary took the
driver’s seat, swiftly drove away, leaving only Linden
and the driver on the roadside.
Fifteen minutester, Bary’s car arrived at the vi area where the Jimenez family’s vi was
located, Flora Valley. Two minutester, Bary drove slowly into a smallne and then stopped in
front of the Jimenez family’s vi.
As Bary stepped out of the car, he noticed someone standing beside the car ahead, Alfie.
Bary nced at Alfle, his gaze as indifferent as if he were looking at a roadside stone.
As Alfie felt the disdain from Bary, his expression darkened even more. “Mr. Covington, you’re
quite the actor.”
Bary pressed the doorbell, then turned his head to look at Allie. “Is that so? Considering I’ll still
be ying this role for seventy or eighty years, I hope my acting skills keep improving. I just hope
you live long enough to see it.“.
As Bary Finished speaking. Thomas opened the gate. “Mr. Covington, pleasee in
Seeing Thomas being so polite to Bary, Alfie couldn’t help but feel angry. Thomas used to treat
Alfie with the same courtesy, but now it seemed like he treated him as if he were invisible.
As Bary entered, Alfie also wanted to follow, but before he could step inside, Thomas stopped
him. “Mr. Guzman, Mr. Jimenez has already made it clear that you’re not wee here.” With that,
Thomas mmed the door shut, leaving Alfie outside.
As Alfie watched Bary follow Thomas inside, his expression became even darker.

“Mr. Covington, Mr.
1. r. and Jimenez are waiting for you upstairs,” Thomas said.
Bary nodded and followed Thomas upstairs.
Moira knew Bary had arrived as soon as she heard the doorbell. Thinking about how she had
just called him “Hubby,” her cheeks felt hat.
Just as she was feeling embarrassed, Thomas had already led Bary in. “Mr. Jimenez, Ms.
Jimenez, Mr. Covington is here,”
Bary first greeted Aiken, saying, “Mr. Jimenez, good evening.”
Then, his gaze fell on Moira sitting on the sofa.
Compared to Alfie, Alken found Bary particrly pleasant, so he said very kindly. “Thank you for
coming. Please, have a seat!”
He nced at Moira and then walked directly to her side and sat down. “You’re wee. It’s the
least I can do.”
Aiken personally poured a cup of coffee for Bary Afraid of any misunderstandings, he exined,
“That guy downstairs was just calling out for Moira, and we were afraid of disturbing the neighbors,
so we had to go down and talk to him. Moira asked you toe to get him to leave.”
Bary epted the coffee. “Don’t worry. As Moira’s husband, I fully trust her.”
Moira trembled slightly at Bary’s willingness to wholeheartedly trust her. Even though she had
been with Alfie for a long time, he always doubted her. never once expressing full trust like Bary
just did. She had only recently met Bary, but he was already willing to trust her, which made her
feel deeply touched.
At the same time, Bary’s tone was very intimate, as if he truly regarded himself as Moira’s
husband, causing her cheeks to blush uncontrobly
