Chapter 524 Taya froze, staring blankly at the man in front of her. Her mind went blank. Griffon slightly raised his chin, quietly staring into her eyes, as if he was waiting for her answer. She lowered her head and thought about it carefully, but she couldn’t remember anything, so she could only say. “I don’t remember…” If she had called Sila s’s name in her sleep like last time, then their relationship would probably be over. Her hand on his chest tightened slightly. “I’m sorry. I’ll go now…” She got up and wanted to leave, but Griffon turned over with her in his arms. He pressed her under him, gazing at her with his beautiful eyes. He didn’t say anything and just kissed her cheek lightly before getting up, carrying her into the bathroom. Later on, the woman’s subtle inhalations, the man’s subdued moans, and the intermittent sound of water splashing
reverberated throughout the bathroom…
The last thing to be heard was a man’s insatiable, yet magnetic voice. “You finally called my name in your dream…” Taya was absolutely exhausted, but still pushed herself to continue designing, cursing out Griffon in her heart all the while.
In the end, when she completed the last stroke and put down her ruler amidst her rage, she collapsed on the chair. Before she could even rest for a few minutes, Neil’s call came in. “Are you done with the drawing yet?” Taya replied weakly, “I’m done. I’ll take a picture and send it to you.” Neil responded, “A picture won’t do. I need the original copy. Send me your address, and I will come to pick it up later.” Taya glanced at Griffon, who was sitting next to the windowsill and quietly reading a finance magazine. She told him, “Mr. Sherwood needs to come and get the original drawing.” Griffon raised his eyes and glanced at her. “Ask him if he dares to come.”
Neil, who was on the other end of the phone, heard Griffon’
cold voice. He immediately stated, “Sorry for bothering. Goodbye.” Taya stared at the dark screen, stunned for a few seconds. She didn’t seem to understand why Neil was so afraid of Griffon.
While feeling puzzled, she received a series of texts from Neil. He said, “Your man is too scary. I think it’s better if I don’t go.” “Just send me the address. I’ll get my maid to pick it up.” “I’m worried the drawing will get stolen if I get someone else to take it, though.” “Argh!”
A frantic emoji was attached to the last sentence. Taya couldn’t help laughing when she saw it. Seeing her chatting with Neil so happily, a glint of jealousy appeared in Griffon’ eyes. He uncrossed his legs, got up, and walked to Taya. He sna tched her phone away and made a video call.
Neil was still waiting for Taya’s reply. When she suddenly tried to video call him, he quickly accepted without thinking. He was about to ask Taya why she was video-calling him
when he saw an icy face staring at him. “Sancastle. Meet me there in ten minutes.” After Griffon finished speaking, he immediately ended the call and returned the phone to Taya, then left the study without saying a word. Taya glanced at his arrogant back, and then at the message from Neil on her phone. “Help.” Seeing his desperation, Taya couldn’t help laughing again. She replied, “Sorry, I can’t save you.” Neil threw his phone out of frustration. “D*mn it! I’m a famous designer. Why should I be afraid of him?” Having filled himself with courage, he jumped up from the bed and rinsed his face before putting on a pair of slippers and leaving.
