Sometimes, God really was unfair. Men only got more charming with age, while women... not so much.
As Fiona lamented, her hand was suddenly grabbed. Nigel opened his eyes groggily and asked, "Didn't get enough last night?" Fiona glared at him. "Nigel, how old are you now? Can you please act your age?" Nigel looked down at her in his arms. After last night's intimacy, her complexion was glowing, and her eyes were soft and bright like a rose in full bloom.
He gave her a kiss and laughed. "Why didn't you ask about my age last night? Weren't you enjoying it then?" Fiona pouted. "It's getting late. Tto get up, Mr. Hampton!" But Nigel didn't want to get up. He wrapped his arms around her. "How about we relive last night?" Fiona was genuinely impressed by his stamina. He really wasn't that young anymore.
"Mr. Hampton, pace yourself. You're acting like a starving wolf finally getting a meal." "Oh, I'm not just starving. In fact, I've been starved for over two decades," Nigel corrected her. Fiona's lashes fluttered as she looked at him. "You haven't been with a woman all these years?" Nigel shook his head. "No." "Liar! What about Anne?" "Fiona, even while I was drugged last night, I still clooking for you. Do you really think I could've done anything with Anne?" Fiona was touched. She didn't expect Nigel to stay faithful all these years. However, she was still slightly skeptical.
She was about to say something when a buzzing sound cut through the moment -Nigel's phone was ringing. "You've got a call. Answer it first," she said.
Nigel had to let her go. He reached for the phone on the nightstand. The screen displayed Carly's caller ID. He answered, "Hello, Carly." Carly's neous voice cthrough in are you right now? elget cback. Ms. Warwick is || "What happened to Anne? Alright, I'll cback right away." After hanging up, Nigel tossed the covers and got out of bed to get dressed.
Fiona sat the entp too, having overheard conversation. She looked at him and asked, "Did something happen to Anne?" "Yeah. I need to go back for a bit." Whatever feelings Fiona had just been feeling vanished instantly. "Then go. Wantto call a plane to fly you back?" Nigel paused, then turned back to look at her. "Please don't misunderstand..." Anne's father had died because of the Hampton family, so Anne's wellbeing was a responsibilityke had to bear. Regardless, he didn't want Fiona to get the wrong idea.

Fiond was already dressed. "It's fine, Mr. Hampton. You don't need to say anything. Just go."
Nigel frowned. Every tAnne's ncup, things would just turn awkward between him and Fiona. She didn't say anything else to him. Once they were both dressed, they went downstairs.

"Mr. Hampton, are you heading somewhere?" Nigel frowned. "Celine, something happened to Anne. I need to head back."
