Genevieve raised her head to look up at him. “Even though I said that I'm not difficult to pursue, a ring still isn't enough.”

“I know, but I still feel more secure with you wearing it.” Upon his reply, Armand swiftly changed the topic. “Do you want to have some barbeque?”

As food in Baykeep tended to be lightly seasoned and sweeter, Genevieve barely touched any during dinner. Instead, she kept herself going on the fruits she ate when she was inside the card room.

Leaving Genevieve to soak in the hot spring, Armand went out for a while. In less than ten minutes, he returned with two staff who carried a bunch of barbeque equipment into the small pavilion.

While waiting for the fire to build up, Armand marinated the meat and vegetables.

Genevieve, sprawled inside the hot spring, was sipping a cup of coffee while observing the busy man in front of the barbeque pit.

By then, Armand had taken off his shirt due to the heat, revealing the bronze tan on his skin and the chiseled lines of his muscular arms.

Even though he didn't have a six-pack, he didn't carry any visceral fat around his belly either. Coupled with his broad shoulders, his body exuded masculinity wherever he went.


Brazenly admiring the sight, Genevieve thought to herself that Armand was truly a rare specimen among government officials.

Most of the men his age would have their heads covered in grey hair from the pressures of work. Even if their faces were glowing, their bodies would have gone to the dogs. However, Armand still managed to maintain a V-shaped figure and wouldn't look out of place standing among a group of male models.

If one didn't know his age, one couldn't tell from his appearance that he was already in his thirties.

Suddenly, Armand caught her gaze when he looked up without warning.

Pausing briefly, he remarked in a deep voice, “Darling, can you stop stripping me with your eyes?”

Taking advantage of the fact that he was occupied, Genevieve flashed a provocative smile at him. “Is it against the law?”

“It's not.” Armand stared at her with his black obsidian eyes. “But I prefer you to use your hands.”

Rendered speechless by his words, Genevieve blushed instantly.

Soon, the fragrant aroma of grilled meat filled her nostrils. Given that she was famished and had soaked enough, Genevieve threw a towel around herself before settling down in the pavilion.

Served in front of her were mutton skewers covered with red sauce. Onions were threaded together to reduce their greasiness. Upon taking a bite, the tenderness of the meat filled her mouth with a delicious gamey taste.

Since she wasn't a fan of onions, the smiling Genevieve handed the skewer over to Armand after biting off the meat. “Sir, after all the work you have done, why don't you have a bite?”

Seeing through her, Armand asked, “Isn't the taste of mutton alone overbearing?”

“I can always wash it down with soda.” Genevieve waved the skewer at him. “Come, allow your girlfriend to feed you with her hands.”
