LittleNovelChapter 794: Corrine gripped the bedsheet beneath her, her hands trembling, anxiety twisting in her stomach. "I... I have no experience in this. Please, be gentle..." After what seemed like an eternity, Nate rested his head in the crook of her neck, his breath uneven as he chuckled softly. "Sleep now."

He stood and silently made his way to the bathroom.
A cold shower that lasted well over half an hour taught him a valuable lesson: be careful about flirting with this woman.
Meanwhile, Corrine had already drifted into an untroubled sleep.
Returning quietly, Nate slipped back into bed, the mattress dipping gently beside her. Corrine, sensing his presence, subconsciously nuzzled against him, her head resting on his chest.

Even after all these years of keeping a low profile, your work is still breathtaking. But..." She paused, a hint of confusion crossing her face. "I remember your previous design style wasn't like this." Adalynn's creations had always been extravagant, marked by a bohemian flair that spoke to free spirits. But this dress? It was something else entirely—sleek, intricate, and as refined as a work of art.

Leah mused.

Leah, still entranced by the dress replied absentmindedly "Go ahead."
"I'm thinking of entering this design into a fashion competition," Adalynn confessed, "If it goes as planned, I may need to take the dress with me. Would you mind?"
