Chapter 569

‘You…”

Mr. Q took a moment to process all Renee said before responding emotionlessly, ‘ You have a wild imagination.’

“Is that not the case?”

Renee took a step closer to him before placing her palm on his chest.

When he saw this, he grimaced and grabbed her hand. “What exactly are you doing?”

“Don’tworry. I simply want to know whether your pulse quickened for me.”

She raised her glance to his and smiled sweetly.

He was first uneasy until a grin came over his face. He put his long arm around her waist, drew her into his arms, and murmured hoarsely, ‘If you want to feel it, then come closer.”

Renee’s cheeks reddened instantly, and she slipped from his grasp.

“What’s the matter with you? I’m not going to eat you.”

It was his time to take the lead, and he grinned as he inched closer to Renee. “You said that I am your ex-husband’s adversary. ‘The enemy of my enemy is my friend,’ as the adage goes. I believe we can give it a go and be together.”

“No!”

She quickly crossed her arms.

‘I knew it! I knew he had bad intentions. My sixth sense is never wrong!’ she thought.

It was unfortunate that she had no desire of being in a relationship right now since she wanted to concentrate only on her work.

“I have no intention of dating anyone.”

She locked her gaze on his.

“Don’t worry,” Mr. Q responded, shaking his head. Tm solely interested in your island.”

“That had better be it.”

Renee, on the other hand, was unconvinced. She believed he was lying and that she needed to maintain her distance from him so that he didn’t misinterpret her and fall for her even more deeply.

Mr. Q had his own aircraft. They traveled to Sun Island as quickly as possible after obtaining an air route.

The seats on the luxurious plane were close together, yet she sat 3 feet apart on purpose to preserve her distance from him.

She stuck on her earbuds after the aircraft took off so he wouldn’t disturb her.

Meanwhile, Mr. Q swayed the crimson wine glass in his palm, gazing out at the landscape.

Sun Island and Beach City were quite a way apart. When they set off, it was late at night. Renee couldn’t help but feel chilly as she sat there.

She tried her hardest to withstand the cold and not say anything in order to avoid any engagement with him.

“Achoo!”

After a time, she couldn’t take it any longer and curled up into a ball and sneezed.

“Are you cold?’ he inquired.

“No,” she said, refusing to tell him the truth.

Mr. Q shook his head and said nothing to her. Instead, he instructed the flight attendant to raise the temperature.

The aircraft soon felt warm, and she thought to herself, ‘It’s so evident he loves me for doing this!’

After a few hours, the jet touched down on Sun Island.

It was quite early in the morning on Sun Island. The air was crisp and the lake was clear. The sun was slowly rising, and there was a pleasant breeze in the air. It was but a dream come true!

The island not only featured a gorgeous landscape but also numerous structures.

The sunflower garden, white church, floating cottages, a floating swimming pool, and a study.

Everything was present.

Mr. Q was surprised since he had not expected the island to be this beautiful.

“It’s worth the 1.5 billion, right?” she added triumphantly, seeing his surprised expression. ‘There isn’t a more gorgeous sight than this!”
