ra Montague helped him out of the car.


    Colton Silverton was indeed quite intoxicated, unlike his past experiences with alcohol. This particr drink seemed stronger and more intoxicating. ra didn’t have any money, so he had to foot the bill for the hotel room.


    Once they were in the room, ra pretended to help him to bed and said, “Rest well.”


    Colton grabbed her wrist. ra feigned surprise, but didn’t resist too much, and reluctantly agreed.


    Passions red, and naturally everything fell into ce.


    …


    Afterward, ra sat at the edge of the bed, holding the nket, looking pitiful with her watery eyes. Colton stared at the bloodstains on the sheets, remaining silent for a while.


    He sighed heavily, “I never expected you to still be a virgin. If I took you, then I will certainly take responsibility for you.”


    ra’s eyes flickered, unable to meet his gaze. She had bled, as Xander had taken her to the hospital for a procedure to repair her virginity. Xander had said that she was a clean girl, and Colton would appreciate and cherish her even more.


    Indeed, Colton cared a lot.


    She tightly gripped the nket. Her heart was filled with hatred towards Arwen. Because of Arwen, she had lost her innocence. Only then would Elijah reject her. Her heart was filled with resentment. She was determined to get revenge on Arwen Silverton. Taking away her husband now would be a form of revenge. Thinking this, she acted even more convincingly, “I know you didn’t mean it, I don’t me you.”


    Saying this, ra stood up, but due to exhaustion, she fell into his arms again. Colton had never felt so passionate before. He found a youthful vigor in ra Montague, feeling as if he was still young and capable of fighting.

    Once again, they engaged in a passionate entanglement.


    Afterward, Colton was generous and left her some money, saying, “Find a ce to settle down, preferably somewhere discreet. Use the rest of the money to buy whatever you like.”


    ra declined, “How can I ept your money?”


    “Am I still a stranger to you now?” Colton looked at her with a smile.


    The lines on his face were somewhat deep. They were marks left by time, but in reality, Colton Silverton had a very masculine appeal. He was also tall in stature, just not as young as before. However, at his age, he possessed a certain charm that young mencked.


    ra wasn’t entirely opposed to it. Moreover, she had other things on her mind. She only wanted revenge. With Xander’s brainwashing and Colton’s recent concern for her innocence, it was clear how important a woman’s purity was. She now had only one thought: to get revenge on Arwen.


    She shyly lowered her head.


    Colton reached out to touch her face. “Youth is truly something, your skin is so smooth.”


    “Do you have anyone else in your family? How can I help you?” Colton asked.


    Even though they had just met and spent the night together, they felt familiar with each other.


    ra followed Xander’s instructions, who said that the more pitiful she seemed, the more Colton would dote on her.


    “My parents died when I was very young.”


    She didn’t consider it a lie, her parents did pass away early.


    “I only have my grandfather, and we rely on each other. We are very poor, and my grandfather’s health is not good. I borrowed money at a high interest rate to pay for his medical treatment. I only borrowed eight thousand dors, but within a week, the interest had reached five thousand dors. Those loan sharks are ruthless. I couldn’t gather the money in such a short time, that’s why they were after me. If it wasn’t for meeting you, I would have fallen into their clutches.”


    Colton caressed her hand. “Indeed, with such a beautiful face, if it fell into their hands, they would surely ruin it. But you were lucky to meet me, I will take care of you.”


    “… Are you married?” ra asked cautiously, “I don’t want to ruin your family.”


    Thinking of Arwen, Colton’s expression changed. “My wife has grown old and worn out. I can’t stand looking at her.”


    ra raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat pleased.


    To be honest, Arwen took good care of herself. But to be called old and worn out, it seemed her position in the family wasn’t that great.


    “You’re mean, how could you say such things about your wife?” ra cuddled up to him, acting coquettish. “Am I prettier than your wife?”


    Colton answered without hesitation, “Of course you’re prettier.”


    In reality, Arwen was more beautiful than ra Montague when she was younger. It was just that she had aged, that was all. It could only be said that time was merciless. If Arwen hadn’t been beautiful, Colton wouldn’t have been so loyal. For all these years, he hadn’t had a single scandal.


    “It’s gettingte, I have to go home.”


    Even though he was reluctant to leave this tender moment, he still felt a bit apprehensive about Arwen, afraid that she would find out, afraid that she would cause a scene. He left his business card behind. “Contact me if you need anything.”


    ra nodded.


    Colton got dressed and left. When he returned home, Arwen had juste back as well. Seeing her husbanding in from outside, her eyebrows furrowed. “You didn’te homest night?”


    Colton shifted his guilty gaze away. “Oh, I had a bit to drink and ended up falling asleep in a private room.”


    Arwen smelled the alcohol on him, confirming her suspicions. “Go wash up.”


    She knew that she had been neglecting him during this period, so she didn’t think too much of it. After all, they had been together for half a lifetime, and Colton Silverton had never made any mistakes in their rtionship.


    “Alright.” Colton deliberately avoided Arwen and quickly headed towards the bathroom.


    Arwen stretchedzily. She had been busy with work at thepany these past few days, but it had paid off. She and Thorne had finalized a project and were nning to meet with the other party tomorrow. Thinking of this, her mood improved.


    She went to another bathroom, cleaned herself up, and put on a sexy outfit, waiting for her husband in the bedroom. Colton Silverton, feeling guilty for his indiscretion, hesitated to face Arwen and took a long time toe out of the bathroom.


    Arwen was growing impatient and said, “Why did you take so long to wash up? Are you trying to wash away some evidence?”


    She said this jokingly, but it startled Colton. His hairs stood on end.


    Coltonposed himself and pretended to be angry at his clothes, “What are you talking about?”


    Arwen walked over gracefully and gently patted his chest, her voice soft and alluring, “Just kidding with you. I’ve been busy helping Thorne stabilize thepany these past few days, so I haven’t been taking good care of you. I’m sorry.”


    As she spoke, her body almost hung onto Colton’s, her hands not staying still.


    Colton had just been with ra. How could he be in the mood? He couldn’t even raise his spirits.


    Arwen sensed it, but didn’t pay it much mind, thinking that she could make him interested in her.


    But it didn’t work.


    Colton quickly exined, “I’ve been tiredtely.”


    Arwen looked at him, “What have you been tired from? Do you know how long it’s been since we’ve been together?”


    Today, she had intentionallye back early to make it up to him. And she was showing him such affection in the early morning.


    Colton’s eyes darted around, “I know, I know you’re tired. You’re doing it all for our family. I understand, I don’t want you to be too tired.”


    Arwen was half skeptical, “Really?”


    “Oh,e on, can I still deceive you? If you don’t believe me, then I swear, if I’m lying, I’ll never be able to be a man…”


    “Alright.” Arwen interrupted him, “Can’t I believe you?”


    But as soon as she finished speaking, Colton’s phone rang.


    Colton’s nerves tightened, he quickly went to grab his phone, but Arwen was one step faster and picked up the phone, giving her husband a sideways nce.


    “Why do I sense that you’re a bit nervous?” asked she.


    “What am I nervous about?” Colton pretended to be casual.


    Arwen nced at the caller ID and saw an unknown number; she then pressed the answer button.
