“I'm going to Baykeep for a meeting. The round trip will take about five days.” Armand closed the refrigerator. “It's not a lot of work, so you don't have to go with me. I was worried that you'd be hungry, so I made and packed a lot of food this morning.”

The refrigerator was packed with quite a bit of food. Genevieve guessed that he had probably come around four or five that morning to make everything.

At the thought of something, she said somewhat aggrievedly, “Why didn't you explain yourself earlier? I thought...”

“You thought I wasn't going to pursue you anymore?” Armand queried with a smile, his hand tapping her nose. “How could I give up midway when you're so beautiful?”

Genevieve grabbed his hand and glared at him. “Oh, so you only fancy my face?”

“That's not completely true.” Armand lowered his head as his gaze fell on her body.

She was wearing a white shirt that day and an A-line skirt. Her top two buttons were unbuttoned, revealing her collarbones and elegant necklace.

If beauty could be measured, Genevieve's looks would be considered off the charts.

Abruptly pulling Genevieve into his embrace, Armand lowered his head and planted a forceful kiss on her clavicle.

Genevieve could feel his hot lips on her skin. He seemed to have even bitten her.

Exasperated, she shoved Armand away before clutching her collar. “You want my face and my body? You animal!”

“You can want me too.” Armand chuckled.

“Shut it!” Genevieve looked daggers at him, turned on her heels, and left in a huff.

Upon entering the elevator, Genevieve checked her collarbone in the mirror and spotted the red patch. It was obvious that it was a hickey.

She hastily buttoned up her shirt and kicked the man out of anger.

After sending Genevieve to the government building, Armand went to the airport at around ten.

Genevieve was efficient in completing her work. The emails that needed to be sent to Armand had been sent, and the instructions that needed to be conveyed had been given. She started to slack off comfortably.

When she saw Melissa making breakfast the next morning, she was stunned for a moment before remembering that Armand had left. Immediately after, she felt empty.

At least Armand went to Baykeep and not to the moon. He would text me to ask me if I'd eaten or if I missed him whenever he was free.

That day, when Genevieve arrived at the government building, she received a text from Armand which read: Remember to receive your gift.

Upon reading that message, Genevieve eagerly went upstairs.

Just as she entered the office, she caught sight of a box on the table. She opened the box with the logo of an expensive brand, and a tube of lipstick caught her eye. The casing of the lipstick resembled a bright starry night, while the shade of the lipstick was an attractive deep red. She also spotted a pair of star-shaped pearl earrings.

On the other side of the box, there were a packet of nuts and a small pink object.

It's a pink... pig?
