Chapter 2 Fake Jayden Lawford

  • Carol and Bianca, both slightly intoxicated, returned to the Lawfords' residence together.
  • As they were led upstairs, Bianca opened the door to a room and said, "Carol, tonight, you can sleep here. This room is mine..."
  • In a daze, Carol was pushed into the room.
  • The room was completely dark. Carol squinted her eyes and felt her way to the edge of the bed, collapsing onto it.
  • Half an hour later, the door to the room opened.
  • Snap! A hand with distinct joints pressed the light switch. Jayden, with an indifferent expression, walked in. He took off his suit and tossed it on the bed, covering a small bulge.
  • After removing his tie, he entered the bathroom. Soon, the sound of a trickling shower became audible.
  • On the bed, Carol suddenly wriggled, emerged from under the blanket, and mumbled, "I need to go to the bathroom..."
  • After struggling for a while, she rubbed her eyes, groped her way down from the bed, and stumbled until she found the bathroom. Without hesitation, she pushed the door open.
  • The bathroom was filled with steam. The towering figure of a man stood under the shower, water cascading down his well-built physique. His attractive abdominal muscles and V-shaped lines were tantalizingly visible.
  • Carol, acting as if no one else was around, opened the door. The mist before her dispersed, revealing a robust figure devoid of clothing.
  • The sudden shock sobered her up, and her pupils contracted intensely.
  • She quickly stepped backward, but her feet slipped, causing her to lurch forward. In a panic, she instinctively grabbed onto something.
  • For a moment, two voices sounded simultaneously.
  • "Ugh." A muffled groan from the man.
  • "Ah... " Carol screamed in pain as she fell.
  • Jayden tensed all over, his handsome face showing a sudden alertness. A strange woman suddenly appeared in his room and invaded his personal space!
  • He took a deep breath to ease his discomfort, his cold gaze glaring at Carol. His voice was tinged with gritted teeth as he said, "Get out!"
  • Carol, scratched by the fallen object, winced in pain. Her face contorted with discomfort as she exclaimed, "Ouch, it hurts!"
  • Jayden quickly grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his waist. He looked down at her from a higher vantage point and said coldly, "Get up."
  • While hearing the man's deep voice, Carol's mind froze for a few seconds.
  • How could there be a man?
  • She lifted her head to look at him.
  • The man had a well-built physique, and the towel barely covered his important parts. Above that was a clearly defined abdominal area, with the V-lines extending under the towel, showcasing a perfect golden ratio comparable to a model's. It was a sight that could make anyone's nosebleed.
  • Faced with the sudden appearance of the unfamiliar naked man, even though his physique was top-notch and perfect, Carol felt like her ability to think had completely shut down.
  • She asked with a trembling voice, "Who... who are you? Why are you here?"
  • The man standing before her seemed familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.
  • Jayden's eyes held a trace of disdain, and he parted his thin lips slightly. "This is my room. Why do you think I'm here?"
  • At this moment, Carol's brain started functioning again.
  • She remembered the events leading up to this and recalled who this person was!
  • She had received a mural order for a villa in Nexoria. She came from Dystron to surprise David, only to catch him in bed with her best friend. Later, she went out for a drink with Bianca to ease her frustration, and Bianca arranged the fake marriage certificate for her.
  • While recalling the photo on the marriage certificate, Carol's heart skipped a beat.
  • He... he... he is...
  • Carol asked tentatively, "Are you the Lawfords' driver, the fake Jayden?"
  • The man's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he instantly understood the woman's identity.
  • Bianca had taken the liberty of acting as the new bride for the marriage.
  • Not only did Bianca marry on his behalf, but she also brought this woman and shoved her into his room. Truly audacious!
  • Jayden remained silent, leading Carol to think that he had tacitly agreed.
  • Sure enough, the Lawfords were incredibly wealthy. Even the driver's room was so luxurious.
  • Jayden lowered his gaze and looked at the wound on Carol's leg, which was still bleeding. He spoke softly, "Let me attend to your wound."
  • At this moment, Carol belatedly felt the pain. She lowered her head and saw a deep wound at the root of her thigh, which was continuously bleeding.
  • She scrambled to get up in a hurry, but to her surprise, her thigh stung. She didn't manage to stand steadily and swayed to the side.
  • In her panic, Carol could only grab onto things around her to steady herself, inadvertently tearing down the last barrier of Jayden.
  • "No!"
  • Her gaze accidentally caught a glimpse of the obscured figure, causing Carol's face to turn as red as if it could drip water. She averted her eyes, unsure where to place them.
  • Goodness! She wished she could live on a different planet right now.
