Olivia had roughly guessed it.
Claude probably fell in love with this young girl at first sight. However, due to his brash
personality, he was too proud to pursue her directly, which led him to use some extreme methods.
Regardless, he should not have provoked Nash.
Punishment was still necessary.
At Royal Bay, the Harrison couple and Hera were sitting together, sorting out reports.
Skadi, sitting cross-legged on the floor, mumbled, âYour family is truly full of workaholics⦠Even at home, you never rest.â
Hera playfully scolded, âWhatâs wrong? Getting tired of us now?â
âI wouldnât dare. Youâre the darling wife of Jonfordâs strongest martial artist!â
Sighing, Hera placed the organized reports on the coffee table. âItâs been seven days⦠I wonder when heâll return.â
They had been having conflicts recently.
Just when things were resolved, he left for another place.

The thunderstorm the night before kept Hera restless. She continuously remembered the first time she slept in Nashâs arms.
âHera, Hera! Nash is backâ¦â
Skadi tugged at Heraâs sleeve, pointing outside.
Hera slapped Skadiâs hand away. âAre you trying to trick me again? I donât hear anything!â
For the past few days, Skadi had teased her multiple times.
She fell for it the first couple of times.
Now, she refused to believe Skadi.
âDad, Mom, Heraâ¦â
Nash entered with a bouquet of pink roses, smiling broadly.
Hearing Nashâs voice, Hera trembled.
The Harrison couple quickly looked toward the door.
It really was Nash.
Everyone set aside their paperwork, smiles emerging on their faces.
âNashy⦠youâre finally back. Have you eaten yet? Maria has left for the day. Iâll cook something for you!â
As Lauren was about to get up, Harrison grabbed her wrist. âWeâve worked all day. Itâs time
for us to rest. Let Hera cook for him!â
âOh right, right. Iâve been so busy these days. My back and shoulders are aching,â Lauren complained, rubbing her shoulder.
âIâll give you a massage when we get home,â Harrison said, chuckling and pulling Lauren
away.
âI just came back and you guys are already leavingâ¦?â Nash said, both amused and resigned.
âTheyâre just giving you and Hera some space. Iâll be leaving too!â
Skadi replied, standing up. She glanced at the roses in Nashâs hand and said with a smile, never thought you knew how to be romantic.â
âI
She felt a twinge of jealousy.
When would she receive roses from the one she loved?
âNashâ¦â
With teary eyes, Hera threw herself into the arms of the man she had missed so dearly.
Nash opened his arms and embraced her tightly.
âI missed you so much,â Hera said, her voice choking with emotion.
Nash kissed her forehead gently. âI missed you tooâ¦â
Before he could finish, Hera tiptoed and pressed her lips against his.
They passionately kissed for a while.
When Hera finally pulled away, she was short of breath, and her face was flushed.
Nash then handed Hera the roses, saying gracefully, âFor you. These are pink roses from the Love God Castle, symbolizing my intense love for you!â
âTheyâre beautiful! I love you so much!â
Hera exclaimed, taking the roses.
Then, she took out her phone and said, âQuick⦠letâs take a selfie!â
Such a romantic moment was definitely worth capturing and sharing to the world on social
media.
They took several pictures in the living room.
The moment Hera posted them, Skadi liked the post and commented with a furious emoji: [ Shoot⦠You should just drop dead!]
Setting her phone aside, Hera asked, âAre you hungry? Iâll cook something for you to eat.â
âIâd rather have you!â
