Chapter 40 Her Scent
Chapter 40 Her Scent
"A secret relationship like the autumn streams?" Mike asked.
"Ha ha!" All of a sudden, Justin burst into laughter.
But Kate stood there quietly, with restlessness in her eyes.
'What did he mean?' she thought.
Kate recalled something.
That night, when she chased after Allen, she caught up with him on a small bridge. After that, she felt
uneasy about what happened between Mike and her in the water. She remembered the river under the
bridge was called "autumn streams."
The small bridge was called the autumn bridge!
'Did this bastard remind me not to forget what happened that night again?
Or did he make fun of me on purpose?
This bastard!
Doesn't he need to work? Why does he keep focusing on these trifles all day long?' Kate wondered.
Seeing her frowning and pursing her lips, Mike smiled. Because Kate looked somewhat naive and
childish.
Mike raised his head and looked at the smiling face of Justin with his black eyes. His eyes were so cold
that Justin shut his mouth in an instant.
The laughter suddenly stopped!
The surroundings quieted down.
With a stunned look on her face, Kate stared at Mike, who was bending over and had something to say.
She pricked up her ears and listened carefully. She saw that his lips were started up and down, opened
and closed.
"A week ago, we had a tryst on the autumn bridge!" he said word by word.
'What?
I can't possibly have heard him correctly, ' Justin wondered.
He was really surprised by Mike's words.
Then he looked at the stunned and unresponsive expression on Kate's face. He didn't believe Mike's
words. But when he looked at the serious expression on Mike's face again, he thought Mike's words
were true.
It seemed that Mike was not lying.
'But how could this happen?
Mike had never been interested in women. Was this the first time he had taken the initiative to date a
woman?'
Justin was shocked as he thought about this.
'Was the so-called ruthless and unapproachable Mike really enchanted by Kate?
Really?
It seemed to be true!
But why was it so hard for me to digest?' Justin recited in his mind.
Justin patted his chest to comfort himself. It was as if he had heard a story that would take him a month
to digest and absorb.
At this moment, the door was pushed open with a bang.
Polly held the phone in one hand and looked around carefully. She carefully observed the situation
inside. Just now, she heard the laughter inside. But when she entered the room, the laughter came to
an abrupt stop.
Seeing that only Justin and Kate were inside, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Did Mr. Leng
leave?"
"What? He left here? When?" Justin asked. Just now, he was immersed in his own world and didn't
notice that Mike had left. When he looked up again, he found that Mike was not here.
Nothing happened, and Polly was comforted. She looked at the two people in the suite, especially
focused on Kate. "Kate," Polly called her gently.
"Yes, I'm listening." Kate regained her obedience and stood in front of Polly with her head down. Polly
really loved her. How could she make Polly sad?
"Well..." After a pause, Polly continued, "Allen will get married soon. Albert and I are the witness." She
was worried about the reaction and endurance of Kate.
"When and where?" Kate widened her eyes and asked eagerly.
She seemed to be very anxious.
Polly couldn't help worrying about Kate. She wondered if Kate wanted to make a scene at the wedding.
Staring at her, Polly hesitated and finally gritted her teeth, "You can't participate his wedding!"
She didn't want Kate to be humiliated!
"I want to participate his wedding!" Kate insisted.
"No way!" Polly said resolutely.
"Otherwise, I will have less chance to see him in the future!" Blinking her eyes, Kate pouted and turned This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
around, acting cute and omnipotent.
Justin was astounded to see this scene.
Seeing this, Justin couldn't help but roll his eyes. He thought that Kate's talent for acting should have
been discovered by the big director, Lucas. She was really a talent for acting!
"You won't see him again!" Polly sighed, "As time goes by, you will gradually forget him." It seemed that
she was talking to herself, or she was sighing.
"What's wrong with him? Why won't I see him again?" Kate asked.
"He was transferred to be the team leader of another company," Polly told the truth.
Hearing this, Justin chuckled, covering his stomach. Because this "another company" was in Africa, far
away from Asia!
So Kate had barely had a chance to see him again.
At last, Kate was relieved. Allen was finally taken away by her action. Fortunately, her efforts paid off!
The task of clearing obstacles was completed.
While she was thinking, Polly raised her hand to touch Kate's forehead, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Kate replied. She looked up at Polly, who was looking at her with a gentle and kind
expression and calm eyes. It reminded Kate of her mother.
She thought it would be nice if her mother was still alive.
Thinking that Kate was too sad, Polly comforted her, "You can find a better man than him."
"Okay!" Kate pretended to lie on Polly's shoulder to seek comfort, but Polly couldn't see the happiness
in her eyes.
'Aunt Liu finally fell into my trap!
Next, should I really consider the cooperation with Mike?' Kate thought. She knew it was dangerous,
but she still had to do it. She had to protect the people who really loved and cared about her!
Besides, she was not as coward as she used to be. She had the ability to protect them from any harm
and schemes.
But the new semester was about to begin.
She directly sent three hundred thousand dollars to her brother two days ago. Kate was worried that
her brother would be worried about their family, so she deliberately said that their father gave the
money to him. The remaining three hundred thousand dollars were specially used to treat her
grandmother.
Allen had left, so Kate thought she should be relieved these days.
The next day, when Kate finished her work, it was late at night.
Kate took a shower and ready for a sleep.
As soon as she lay down, she heard the sound of fingertips knocking on the window.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound was slight.
Kate jumped up vigilantly and quickly approached the window. A few seconds later, a low voice rang
out, "The security storage area!" His voice was low and attractive.
Kate was stunned as she heard this voice.
It was Mike!
He wanted to explore the security storage area with her. Kate was shocked. She didn't expect him to
act so fast!
That was great!
"In a minute!" Kate replied and quickly changed into a black sportswear, so that she could hide herself.
She went straight to the door and comforted the hound, Chasel, "Buddy, take care of grandma. I will be
back soon."
At the door, a tall figure stood there. She knew it was Mike. Before she could speak, the black figure
turned around and strode away. She quickly followed. At the entrance of the hall, she saw an ordinary
black car. She opened the door directly and the two of them arrived at the wall of the backyard of the
hotel in more than ten minutes.
He kept silent all the time, wearing a neat black suit. Just as Kate was staring at the high wall in a daze,
he asked in a low and hoarse voice, "Do you need some help?"
"No, thanks." She didn't need his help.
Mike chuckled and watched her action.
Kate took out the prepared rope and swung it towards the high wall. Then she quickly grabbed the wall.
Standing on the wall, she looked at Mike complacently, as if she was showing off her skill.
Then she jumped down the wall and disappeared in the dark night.
Mike's black eyes twinkled like stars all over the sky, emitting a beautiful light. 'Is this woman really
Kate?
When did she learn to climb walls?
When did she become so brave?
She looked like an actress in action movies, ' he thought.
As soon as Kate put away the rope and turned her head, she saw Mike swaggering over. Puzzled by
the blurry figure, she asked in a low voice, "Why didn't I see you jump off the wall?"
"Well, I'm going through the door!" he replied.
Kate was speechless. She stared at him in the darkness and roared in a very low voice, "Why didn't
you tell me there is a door?"
"I told you, but you refused me." Kate recalled that he had asked her whether she needed help or not.
"You!" Kate was so angry that she put away the rope, turned around and left, thinking that he was
deliberately playing a trick on her!
He was a cunning and scheming cold lion!
He caught up with her in a few steps, and a smile appeared on his face in the darkness.
The two figures disappeared in the darkness.
When they arrived at the security storage area, a group of patrolmen came over.
Kate and Mike quickly hid behind a bunch of flowers, squatted down and held their breath.
Kate stared at the door of the area. She was not familiar with the terrain inside, so it seemed that the
patrol mechanism was very perfect.
The yard of the area was very bright.
Kate had just taken a shower, and her hair was still a little wet. There was a thick fragrance of her hair,
which was different from the fragrance of flowers at night. It was not thick, but fresh and elegant,
making people feel comfortable.
The fragrance filled Mike's chest.
Suddenly, Kate turned her head and said, "Let's go in from behind."
A strand of wet hair fell on Mike's face as she turned her head. His face was met by her hair. Her smell
turned him on.
His throat suddenly became dry and hoarse, as if what rushed over was not hair, but flames that were
burning him, and then the flames instantly spread throughout his body.
He suddenly stood up.
