Chapter 142


    The banquet finally ended at eleven o’clock.


    Iliana hade with Andres, so naturally, Andres took Iliana back home.


    Marie returned to her room, kicked off her high heels, removed her makeup, and took a bath. After


    the next morning.


    Originally, it was just a momentary impulse to go against Noel, but when she recalled Noel’s words


    about Dennis bing a dead person, she suddenly felt very uneasy. Marie turned over and thought,


    it’s better to go and check on


    him.


    It seemed that only after seeing Dennis, their heart could finally be at ease.


    She remembered thest shootout at Witton Manor. After all, Dennis was still a member of the King


    Organization, not just a simple businessman. He was always surrounded by dangers.


    The more Marie thought about it, the more uneasy she became. She tossed and turned all night, and it


    wasn’t until the early hours of the morning that she finally fell into a dazed sleep.


    The sky had just begun to brighten when Marie woke up again. She nced at the time, got out of bed,


    and washed her face. Without packing anything, she grabbed her identification and headed straight for


    the airport.


    She briefly exined the situation to Luca and asked him to tell Asher not to worry. She also informed


    my assistant about her recent business trip to France and asked them to take good care of Sasha and


    the others. Then, she boarded the ne.


    It wasn’t until the nended in Paris that Marie realized, in a moment of impulsiveness, she had


    really traveled to France on a flight thatsted more


    than ten hours.


    Get Bogos


    After leaving the airport, it was already ten o’clock at night. Marie took a taxi


    straight to Dennis’ hotel. She quickly went up the elevator and stood at the


    door, pressing the doorbell. A minuteter, the door opened.


    Dennis was wrapped in a bathrobe, his hair slightly messy, and his face looked bewildered. It was clear


    that he hadn’t fully woken up yet. He seemed less


    aloof and serious than usual, and a bit more adorable.


    Dennis looked at the girl outside the door, who was wearing a simple white T-shirt and shorts, sporting


    sneakers, her hair tied in a ponytail, and her face bare. Apart from some dark circles under her eyes,


    everything was fine.


    Alright, some things seemed unreal.


    It was like a dream; the person he wanted to see was standing outside the door, smiling at him.


    Marie chuckled, “Dennis, if you don’t wee me, I’ll just go back.”


    Dennis pulled Marie into the hotel and closed the door with a “bang.”


    He pulled Marie straight back to the bedroom. Marie was dragged in, muttering, “Dennis, what time is


    it? You…”


    Marie’s lips were covered by a warm touch, and a familiar refreshing scent.


    filled her nostrils. Her legs went weak, and she fell onto the bed.


    Dennis seemed to have melted all the longing from the past few days into this kiss, tenderly entwining


    and intoxicated.


    Marie was forced to close her eyes, and all the uneasiness, all the worries, and all the tension in her


    mind disappeared, making her feel calm and wanting to fall asleep.


    It wasn’t until the man’s heavy breathing sounded in her ear that Marie

    opened her eyes. Dennis buried his face in her neck, took a few deep breaths,


    and then rolled onto the bed.


    Get Bo


    He pulled Marie close, firmly holding her in his embrace, his hand wrapped


    around her waist, not moving an inch.


    “What’s wrong?” Marie asked, her head resting on Dennis’s chest, her voice.


    muffled.


    “Sleeping, not fully awake yet,” Dennis’s hoarse voice came through.


    Marie said helplessly, “What time is it now…”


    Dennis hugged her arm tightly and said, “Let’s sleep a little longer, I’m really


    tired.”


    The dark circles under his eyes were quite noticeable, as if he had stayed up all night. Marie, feeling


    helpless, turned around and leaned against Dennis’s chest, closing her eyes.


    Last night, she had trouble sleeping, tossing and turning. This morning, she got up early to go to the


    airport. She didn’t get much rest during the ten-plus hours on the ne. Now that she saw Dennis and


    smelled his familiar scent, she suddenly felt at ease and was actually a bit sleepy.


    Not long after, Marie fell asleep in Dennis’ arms.


    When she woke up again, it was already eight o’clock the next morning, and she waspletely


    awakened by hunger.


    Yesterday, she didn’t eat much on the ne, so when she arrived at the hotel, she went straight to


    sleep. Now, her stomach is growling because I’m hungry.


    Marie turned over and reached out, but there was no one on the bed. She rubbed her eyes and sat up.


    The room still had heavy curtains drawn, making it feel like the middle of the night.


    Marie sat up, her eyes not fully open yet, when the bedroom door was pushed open. A tall man


    approached and pecked her on the lips, asking, “Are you awake?”


    Get Borus


    Marie pushed Dennis’s erged handsome face away, covered her mouth as she yawned, and


    nodded, “I barely woke up, I’m hungry.”


    “Um, I’m hungry too,” Dennis said.


    Marie had just sat up when she was pushed back down onto the bed, her mouth


    kissed numb. Helplessly, she pushed Dennis away and said, “I’m really


    hungry.”


    The man’s lowughter came through, “Littlezy pig.”
