Chapter 31 We Are Drunk Ii

• Emine emerged from Aiden's bedroom and entered the hallway, her eyes scanning the familiar surroundings. Everything appeared unchanged, as if frozen in time. She couldn't help but scrutinize the hall, her gaze landing on the audacious portrait of Nora that still proudly adorned the wall. It was a stark reminder that Nora still held the reins of ownership. Emine scoffed, finding the situation absurd, and with a dismissive air, she departed.
• Meanwhile, Aiden, still grappling with his awakening senses, embarked on a search of the house, only to find it devoid of any presence. Perplexed, he muttered to himself, "This girl has truly grown wings." Determined to assert his authority, he made a decisive call to Finn, instructing him to contact Mr. Shadrach and terminate the deal with Emine. Adding a touch of audacity, Aiden declared, "Tell him I'll sweeten the deal with an additional thirty percent, just to see how far she dares to challenge me."
• As the clock neared nine in the morning, Sandra remained immersed in deep slumber. Ryan had already prepared a delightful breakfast, yet he couldn't bear to disturb the enchanting sight of the sleeping beauty beside him. Her peaceful countenance, despite the lingering effects of alcohol, radiated a delicate glow, further accentuated by the moonlight's gentle caress through the window drapes. With an unruffled expression, a serene smile graced her lips, as if her dreams were crafting a tapestry of whimsical adventures. The tousled waves of her hair hinted at a spirited nature, wild and carefree. Tranquility embraced her, synchronizing her rhythmic breaths with the tranquil night, creating a harmonious lullaby. Though temporarily intoxicated, her slumber exuded an ethereal charm, whispering tales of mirth and bliss.
