Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Romina said, "I've got to head back to the office.".

River didn't stop her. He just watched her leave.

Serenity and her son also watched as Romina's figure disappeared into the distance.

"River," Serenity teased, "stop staring. She's long gone-you won't see her now.". River snapped out of it and cleared his throat. When he noticed he'd finished all his snacks, he said, "Sister-in-law, I'll take you to my place. You can send the location to the bodyguards-they can take a cab straight to the house. Or, if you'd rather, we can check into a hotel.".

Serenity felt that staying in River's house might disturb him. The kids could be loud, and besides, he wasn't married.

River said, "If you and the kids go to a hotel, I'll be doomed. Grandma, my parents, and my oldest brother will kill me if they find out. I've got a big villa here. Usually, it's just me and a few workers—it's too empty. It needs some life. You and the kids should stay. I'm usually busy and sleep at the office. When I do come home, it's only for a night. There are plenty of rooms for the bodyguards and a nanny. I'll have the butler take care of it.".

His sister-in-law and her kids had come all this way. If they didn't stay with him, his brother would blow a fuse-even if the hotel was five-star.
