Chapter 548 Limited Time Spec... Unlock 3 Chapters for Extra Perks Merks Lennon returned to New York a week later.

The April wi nd in New York felt warm.

Lennon was dressed in a black shirt and trousers. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist. He stood tall and straight. His handsome features carried a hint of coldness that kept people away. His eyes were deep and mysterious, like a dark sea.

The indifference in his eyes completely disappeared the moment he saw Mariela. It was replaced by tender affection.

Mariela saw Lennon and assumed he was coming for the “check” on the law firm as usual. She greeted him.“Good morning, Mr.

Stark.”

Lennon glanced at a newcomer in the office and simply looked away. He handed over a box. Marie, open it and take a look.”

The newcomer was Haylee, a bodyguard that Deandre had found for Marie.

Haylee had a bob haircut. Her tanned skin looked wild and healthy. She was 5.91 feet tall with a medium build, so she was neither fat nor thin. There was not an ounce of extra fat on her body. She had worked hard to develop the solid muscles, giving others a sense of security.

Marie arranged for Haylee to work as her assistant at the law firm, doing various odd jobs unrelated to the legal profession.

Haylee’s salary was based on that of a normal bodyguard, at 2 million dollars per month. It was deducted from Deandre’s account.

Haylee started working at the law firm five days ago. She also moved into Marie’s place. Wherever Marie went, Haylee followed.

They ate and lived together every day.

Mariela glanced at the box in Lennon’s hand. She asked, “What is it?”

“The gift for you.”

Marie averted her gaze and continued to stare at the computer screen. While typing, she calmly said with a poker face, “No need.”

“Don’t you even bother looking at it?”

Lennon walked up to Marie. He opened the box and took out the thing from inside. It was a very beautiful scarf.

Mariela took a few more glances. Lennon had a good eye. She liked this scarf.

Lennon caught Marie’s fondness in her eyes. He smirked and said, “This brand of scarf is very popular among girls. It’s a local brand from Italy, and you can only buy it in the capital city of Italy. Many girls will buy a scarf when they travel to Italy. When I saw this scarf, I had a feeling that you would like it.”

Mariela suddenly said, “Mr. Stark, do you know so well about girls‘ pref nces?”

Lennon quickly replied, “Shayla recommended it to me.”

Lennon suddenly burst into laughter. The ice in his eyes melted away instantly. He looked at Mariela with a smile. His eyes were as transparent as glass, radiating a gentle light.
