Reign seemed still mad at Haylan, standing quietly staring at the sea Haylan had no choice but wait patiently for Reign to be ready to speak.
In fact, he had realized why Sharvin sent the invitation, and why Labenz refused to cooperate However, he wanted to hear it from Reign herself.
Under the watchful eyes of the people on the shore, the Swan Cruise weighed anchor and set sail into the vast sea, cutting through the water in the sea.
The other two Swan Cruises followed behind.
The three ships cut through the water and marched forward on the turbulent waters, tracing three white straight lines in the sea. It was a spectacular sight.
As the boat was about to set sail. Sharvin took a sip of coffee before looking at Haylan and leaving Reign turned and glared at Haylan before saying. I wonder if you know that Sharvin is a cunning opportunist. Itâs certain that if that he really knows the whereabouts of the Ghost Orchid, heâd try every means to get it alone!
However, he invited me to join him, but a capitalist like him wouldnât share the wealth with others, will he?â
âOf course not, Haylan replied, chuckling So the only reason heâd cooperate with me is that he know with his own capability, he canât pluck the Ghost Orchidr alone, said Reign staring at Sharvinâs back.
He probably wants me to be used his scapegoat or cannon fodder.
If I cooperate with him. I have to be extremely cautious, or Ill be dead any moment.â
I see. That man has never done anything good; as to the evil, heâs willing to do any kind of it, Haylan replied, nodding his consent Reign shifted her sight to the distant sea, and said in a low voice, âI have a strange premonition something bad will happen this timeâ
Josef would not easily hand over the new medicine to her. And now there came Sharvin These two business tycoons seemed fixated on her, making her feel pressured.
Besides, her premonition did not stem from them but from her instinct.
She had a feeling that something awful even horrible and terrifying would happen.
Yet she could not figure out what the cause exactly was. The fear seemed vague yet real to her.
âWe can look at the bright side of the matter. Haylan said calmly. âWe know Josef has the new medicine and we know his conditions. We also know Sharvin has the information about the Ghost Orchid. Both are invaluable assets to us.â
Haylanâs expression was composed as he continued slowly. âWhat we need to do next is try to make Sharvin spill the beans and then figure out a way to trade for Josefâs new medicine Reagh heard that and smiled. âYouâre really optimistic And you cheered me up a bit The information is all found out by you. Iâm just helping you summarize,â said Haylan âYou seem to have already got a plan, right?â
âYes, but the time isnât right yetâ
âReally Hearing that Reignâs eyes widened in surprise and anticipation You really have thought of a solution?â she exclaimed She just asked the question casually, never exp aylan would really have an answer After all, Josef and Sharvin were both wizened veterans. It would be incredibly difficult to persuade them to divulge the new medicine and Ghost Orchidâs whereabouts Yet Haydan really had a solution! How come!
âIndeed there is a way Haylan said, nodding his head.
He looked toward Josef and said. âThough Josef looks refined and debonair, heâs prone to sexual pleasure. And you know what his kidneys and other functions have almost failed.
With so many beautiful models on board today, heâs sure to indulge.
In three more episodes of excess, his functions will fail completely. Then Iâll show up and cure him, and then, perhaps I be able to persuade him into handing over the new medicine to me.â
Hearing this, Reign blushed slightly.
The association of the functions and the beautiful models unsettled her, some wanton images emerging in her mind Haylan shifted his sight from Josef to Sharvin and continued, âHowever, Sharvin has no Achilles heel. Heâs somewhat ill but itâs not critical.
Itâll be hard to make him talk So we must wait for the right moment. We must be patient.
Since he wants us as cannon fodder, he wonât give up just because you refused him. Hell certainly try it again.â
Reignâs eyes lit up at Haylanâs analysis.
If what Haylan said was true, she might really have a chance to make it!
She looked at Haylan with pronounced admiration and said, âI forgive you.â
âHuh?â Haylan was startled.
He didnât do anything wrong, why the hell did she say the word âforgiveâ?
âFor evading my charms and kiss!â, Reign added.
Haylan smiled wryly.
So that was how it was.
Just avoiding a kiss?
Why was she so angry about it?
And shortly after that, she forgave him.
A womanâs temperament was truly fickle, He observed Reignâs gorgeous face and suddenly was struck by an idea. With a smile, he said, âIt was wrong of me to evade your kiss. Iâll compensate. How about this, Iâll be your boyfriend after our voyage.
And to make amends for evading your kiss, Iâll compensate you with aâ¦..â
âWhat?â Reign stumbled.
Before she could react, Haylanâs strong hand had already reached her waist and pulled her into his arms, pressing their bodies tightly together.
Then, Haylan hugged Reign and kissed her.
BOOM!
Reign was stunned and frozen in place, as if struck by a bolt of lightning She stiffened and her face turned red all of a sudden.
Haylan kissed her hard and then let go of her, smiling as he asked, âIs this compensation satisfying to you, Ms. Labenz?â
At this moment, Reignâs body remained stiff, her heart pounding wildly.
She dared not to look at Haylan. She lowered her head, feeling as though her heart might burst out of her chest the next moment.
She had never in her wildest dreams expected Haylan to be so audacious in it â he did not even ask for her opinion before acting It was like a dramatic kabedon scene from a TV show.
However, she, as the real CEO, wondered why all of a sudden she had become so passive.
For a moment, Reignâs thoughts were scattered, and her face was as red as an apple totally rip.
She couldnât help but ask herself. âHow strange, why would I have those feelings? Itâs never like this before.â
Doubts filled Haylan as he observed Reignâs reaction, though he was smiling and appeared rather composed.
As a sophisticated man, he could resist any temptation and was rarely stirred in his heart, let alone lose control.
However, seeing Reign like this now, he suddenly had tan urge to hug and kiss her, and acted on it.
Most importantly, the moment the thought entered his mind, he found himself unable to resist it.
