The Villain’s Wife 597 Thrill
"What were you thinking?" Layla Randolf wanted to curse the woman sitting next to her. "Really? Adalind? Is there something wrong with you?"
In response, Adalind rolled her eyes. "Did I do something wrong? I only wanted to see him. It’s not like I was planning to steal him or something."
"That’s stupid. You are here to have a vacation and not flirt with a married man, again."
"You are making it sound as if flirting with a married man is such a terrible thing to do. Layla... you know me. I always wanted a challenge."
Layla looked at her cousin in disbelief before shifting her gaze back to the road. She pursed her lips. "The men here have different views from your ex-boyfriends in the US."
"What are you talking about? Men are alike. They have two brains and they can’t use both at the same time." Adalind smiled. "I am not giving up though."
Layla let out a deep sigh. She always knew that her cousin is very hard-headed. So convincing him not to ruin another marriage is futile. "Your choice then. Just... don’t call me when you need help. I will leave with my husband tomorrow night."
Adalind pouted. She folded her arms across her chest. "You should stop treating me like a kid. And I am really bored alright? You can’t blame me for having just a little fun."
"Yeah... it’s obvious that you enjoyed it." Sarcasm laced Layla’s tone as she eyed her cousin’s wet clothes. "If you keep doing stupid things like this... I don’t know... Uncle and Aunt sent you here so you could fix your life. If they knew that you are once again looking for men to entice then I can’t help you out anymore."
"Then don’t tell them," Adalind answered nonchalantly. "Once you leave, I get to live at your house right? Just tell them... I am safe and is enjoying my vacation in your mansion."
Layla turned quiet. Since she was not able to buy the mansion that Mr. And Mrs. Zhou bought, she promised her cousin that she could stay in their house after they leave Hong Kong. Now, she didn’t know if she should still allow her to occupy her home, knowing that she is already back hunting married men.
"What’s with that look?" Adalind asked. "I already told mother and father that you agreed to let me stay. So... you can’t back out now."
"Uncle and Aunt only wanted the best for you. And yet... here you are ruining your future because you wanted to have a challenge. Just because of a little fun."
"Layla... you can’t say something like that. You have never experienced the thrill of having sex while their wives are sleeping next door. Or... almost getting caught or having sex in the car. Now that I thought about it... your life is so tedious."
"It is not boring." Layla frowned.
"You always travel from country to country with your busy husband. Is that even enjoyable? You should have fun sometimes."
"If your definition of fun is sleeping with a married man for the sake of thrill, then... thank you very much. I will pass."
"Come on! You are such a saint." Adalind rolled her eyes as she looked at the drenched sidewalk. "Sex is human nature. You should enjoy it before your libido decreases."
Layla chose not to answer her cousin. It was pointless. They are opposite when it comes to their views. Adalind is the type of woman that does not really believe in marriage and staying with one partner for the rest of her life. This was the exact opposite of Layla’s beliefs.
"Alright... if you really don’t want to enjoy life with me... then it’s fine. Just don’t blame me once you are already wrinkled and you still haven’t enjoyed your life as I did." Adalind laughed. Her eyes crinkled as she shifted her gaze at her cousin’s unamused expression.
Life is too short. Why not enjoy it while you can?

Meanwhile, Lily never mentioned the incident to Zhou Jingren. She does not see any point in doing so. Her husband is already busy with work and catering to her needs. She would not want him to think about these irrelevant matters.
Moreover, it was a brief interaction. There is no point in mulling over something like that. But this does not mean that Secretary Go would not tell Zhou Jingren about what happened.
Secretary Go could not stop himself from apologizing over and over for what he did. In the end, Zhou Jingren sighed and asked him to stop kowtowing. He also asked him not to talk about this matter again. After all, Lily never mentioned it to him. This only meant that her wife didn’t find this relevant at all.
He also told Go Jichen to avoid women like that. A woman ensnaring a man for their own hidden agenda is common in the business industry. Espionage has caused the downfall of many companies. In fact, some downfall was caused by some fox-like women who created chaos inside the company.
A few days later, Zhou Jingren and Lily received an apology letter and some gifts from Mr. and Mrs. Randolf.
"It is only natural that you gain some weight." Zhou Jingren noted when Lily asked him if she gained some weight. "But no... I think you need more food and milk tea." He uttered as she helped her zip her dress. "This dress really suits you."
"Thank you." Lily beamed. She handed Zhou Jingren a necklace that Fernando made a couple of years ago. Without saying anything, Zhou Jingren clasped the necklace around her neck. "Are you sure... you’re not coming with me and Yuanfeng?" she asked. Tonight, Lily and Qin Yuanfeng is planning to meet with Qin Chuan.
"No... you should have some time with your father and brother alone. I will be with George. Just text me when you are ready for me to pick you up." Zhou Jingren said as he kissed her temples. He then looked at their reflection in the full body mirror in front of them. "You are so beautiful." He uttered before kissing her again.
