Chapter 100


    Bary’s hand was on the second button of his shirt, the dark red scratch standing out against his


    skin.


    Moira retrieved her gaze, forcing herself to stop focusing on the scratch. However, she could not


    ignore it when she kept reminding herself that she was the one who generated that scratch.


    When Bary unfastened the second button, Moira could not hold her curiosity anymore and


    asked, “Mr. Covington, I put some concealer on the scratch this morning, didn’t 17”


    Bary lowered his head to nce at the scratch on his left neck. He raised his eyebrows and


    replied, “I worked up a sweat earlier. The concealer must be melted off.”


    Moira was surprised and repeated, “Melted off?” She cried inside, “My concealer is waterproof! I


    also applied a waterproof foundation and loose powdert The makeup melted off?‘ She could not


    believe it.


    Bary looked over and asked, “Any problems?”


    Moira answered, “Nothing. The quality of my makeup products is too low.”


    Bary replied, “Yeah. You should change them with a better brand.” He stayedposed,


    showing no sign of guilt. This made Moira feel it was inappropriate to question further. Besides, she


    knew Bary would bring up what had happenedst night if she kept asking


    Bary sat on the white sofa and leaned back. He slightly raised his head, fixing his gaze on


    Moira, and casually asked, “Why didn’t you take her checks?”


    Moira was puzzled when she heard Bary’s words, asking. “Can… Can I take them?”


    Bary chuckled and replied, “Those are the gifts from your mother–inw. Why do you think you


    can’t take them? Why did you let go of the free


    money?”


    Moira said, “I felt it wasn’t right to ept them.” She talked to herself, ‘Is there still a chance for me


    to ask Mrs. Bernice to offer me 20 million dors again?”


    At this time, Rose walked to Moira and Bary. She nced at them at the door and knocked on


    the door, announcing, “Mr. Covington and Mrs. Covington, lunch is ready.”


    Moira pursed her lips and replied, “Thanks, Ms. Graham.” With that, she looked at Bary and said,


    “Mr. Covington, time for lunch.”


    Moira took her phone and rose from the sofa. Bary followed her to get up. They approached the


    door almost at the same time.


    Feeling Bary was approaching, Moira stood still, indicating Bary to go ahead.


    Unexpectedly, Bary did not move. Instead, he lowered his head to look at Moira’s left foot and


    asked, “Do you feel better about your foot?”


    Moira replied, “I guess so?”


    Bary raised his eyebrows and asked, “What do you mean when you say ‘I guess so‘?”

    Moira felt embarrassed and said. “It’s healing, but it’s not fully recovered yet.”


    Bary seemed to understand it and asked to confirm, “So it’s still hurting?”


    Moira had a feeling of being carried in Bary’s arms when she heard his words.


    As Moira expected, Bary carried her up as soon as he finished speaking.


    Maka had gotten used to it since Bary did that a lot. She subconsciously wrapped her arms


    around Bary’s neck. “Thud.” Her grip on her phone loosened, and it slipped from her hand, falling


    to the floor.


    Moira used all her strength to get up quickly from Bary’s arms, attempting to catch her falling


    phone, but she failed to save it. Yet, her sudden movement even put her in an awkward situation.


    She was still wrapping her arms around Bary’s neck. However, instead of nestling in Bary’s


    arms, she sat in his arms. Her face was about one inch to his face.
