Jane’s words were a clear warning to Mia not to make baseless speculations.

“I’m just worried about you, Jane.”

Mia looked aggrieved.

“I don’t need you to worry about my affairs. If you have that much time, you might as well think about how to get the wedding done with Eason as soon as possible.”

Jane’s words immediately turned Mia pale.

Of course, she also wanted to get the wedding done as soon as possible to avoid any unexpected trouble.

But ever since she faked a miscarriage to get rid of future problems, it became even harder to meet

Eason.

Even Lydia had only shown up on the night of the miscarriage. In this situation, initiating discussions about the wedding seemed almost impossible.

Seeing Mia’s pale face, Jane realized she had been a bit too harsh.

“Alright, I know it’s tough for you. I also invited Eason to the party. He should be boarding the ship soon. You know how to seize this opportunity, right?”

Jane said.

“I know. Jane, thank you,”

Mia said as her eyes lit up.

“By the way, having that recording in Cora’s hands is like a time bomb for us. Why not take this chance to throw her phone into the sea to eliminate any future trouble?”

“You’re right. But we must handle it discreetly, and if anything goes wrong…”

Jane didn’t finish her sentence.

Mia quickly added,

“If anything goes wrong, I’ll take all the responsibility and won’t implicate you or the

Yoris family.”

“Then do it the way you want. I’m going back to my room now.”

Jane didn’t linger and turned to walk toward her room.

However, she didn’t go back to her room. Instead, she went directly to Byron’s room and knocked on the door a few times.

But there was no response from inside.

Frowning, Jane thought,

“Where did he go? Could it be…”

At this moment, she didn’t think about Carter, whom Byron had mentioned earlier, but Cora!

Just as she was about to leave for Cora’s room to find out, the door suddenly swung open from the inside.

Seeing Byron wearing a bathrobe, with water occasionally dripping from his hair, Jane paused for a moment.

“Byron?”

“What’s the matter?”

His expression still carried the usual aloofness.

Perhaps due to wearing the bathrobe, which slightly revealed his sturdy chest muscles, his voice sounded somewhat husky and seductive.

At this moment, Jane wondered what he would look like when losing control of his desires. Would he be just as captivating?

She felt a strong desire to enter his room and observe his remarkably different appearance up close.

But Byron stood firm at the door, obstructing her from entering, clearly expressing his resistance to anyone intruding into his private space.

So she advised,

“Since we rarely have the chance, Byron, why don’t you come out to have fun?

They’ve prepared some drinks, snacks, and a few entertaining activities on the top deck. Let’s go up to have a look, shall we?”

Jane thought Byron wouldn’t refuse her offer.

After all, people said it was a breeze for women to pursue men.

Although she wasn’t actually pursuing him, she did take the initiative, and Byron shouldn’t reject her.

However, in the next second, Byron’s words felt like a slap in her face.

“I’m in a meeting. No time.”

Before Jane could react, he swiftly closed the door.

Rejected by his cold words, Jane felt uncomfortable.

Yet, she couldn’t help but recall the urgency in Byron’s voice. He must be attending an important meeting and didn’t want to be disturbed.

With this in mind, Jane managed to save face and returned to her room, unaware of what had just happened.

Just as she left, Byron closed the door, pulled out the woman in a red dress hidden in the bathroom, and pressed her against the door.

“Mr. Hansen, you are supposed to be in a meeting. What are you going to do?”

Cora playfully hooked her finger around Byron’s neck.

“Playing chess.”

He lowered his head to kiss Cora’s neck, intending to continue what they had left unfinished.

Actually, he hadn’t initially planned to do anything, but when he saw Cora in her red dress, standing in the sea breeze, he couldn’t resist the temptation.

Before Carter could send her back to her room, Byron intercepted her and brought her to his room.

“You can find someone else to play with. I want to enjoy the sea view.”

Cora didn’t want to do that with him during broad daylight, or else she would end up stuck here for the whole day.

She pushed Byron away, but he held her chin.

“Who else can I play with?”

“The one who called you Byron affectionately just now will probably be happy to play with you,”

Cora suggested.

Wearing a nonchalant expression, she added,

“Do men all like women who call you by your names softly?”

Cora remembered that Jane called Byron, Harry, and Carter all by their names in the same tone.

Byron and Carter didn’t show any reaction, but Harry seemed to enjoy it, even warning her sternly.

Cora couldn’t help but wonder if Harry treated Jane like a little sister because Jane called him that way.

“If that is the case, should I learn from Jane to use that tone? Will I receive the same special treatment by that?”

She thought.

Cora asked Byron for advice earnestly. However, her words seemed to touch a sensitive nerve as

Byron suddenly bit her firmly.

“Ouch!”

When Cora winced in pain, Byron leaned in and whispered in her ear,

“I’m not sure about others, but I’d love to hear you do that.”

Then he kept Cora in his room for a long while, using various methods to make her call him by his name, Byron.

Since Byron didn’t come out for a while, Jane went to the top deck to pass the time.

Coincidentally, Carter was also there.

“Carter, Byron rarely takes a break, why does he have so many meetings to attend?”

She asked.

Recalling the postponed meetings, Carter replied emotionlessly,

“He recently took over the company, so there are many internal affairs to address.”

“In that case, why don’t you bring Cora up here? It must be boring for you to be alone,”

Jane suggested.

Carter pushed his glasses with an expressionless face.

“She’s also in a meeting.”

Jane furrowed her brows. Why was everyone busy with meetings?

Just as she was about to say something, Byron also appeared on the deck…

This man seemed like a natural luminary. He was in simple black shirt and trousers, his composed colors not standing out amidst the flamboyant attires of the rich young men. Yet, his presence still managed to seize everyone’s attention.

Almost everyone on the deck enthusiastically came forward to greet him, and naturally, Jane also abandoned her banal conversation with Carter and hurriedly approached Byron.

“Byron, is the meeting over?”

She asked.

As Byron raised his head, he noticed Carter looking at him, seemingly able to see through everything.

Nevertheless, Byron simply diverted his gaze indifferently.

“Yeah,”

he replied.

“Shall we go to the deck chairs over there to have some drinks and chat, or do you want to play golf?”

Jane asked.
