Female NovelChapter 2869 Marcus drew her close, seating her on his Lap. Extracting a cigarette from the table, he refrained from lighting it, cradling her in his embrace before remarking, “Ten oclock. You can steal a bit more sleep.” A surreal sensation enveloped Melissa.
In a matter of hours, she would depart from this place, heading back to Duefron. A realm of unfamiliarity awaited her, and truth be told, a twinge of fear gripped her. Navigating the role of a wealthy family’s daughter-in-law was never a cakewalk for Melissa.
Despite the amiable nature of the Fowler family, Melissa couldn't confine herself to their homely confines.
She found herself obliged to go out with Marcus to attend social engagements, She wished to avoid causing him any embarrassment.
Simplicity and innocence adorned Melissa's demeanor, her emotions laid bare. Smirking gently, Marcus uttered, “We'll tackle that discussion later. For now, it's bedtime.” Clutching his sleeve, Melissa asserted, “I've got to pack. My ID card is still at the rented place. We also need to wrap up the lease.” Marcus pondered briefly and nodded in agreement.
“I'l arrange for a car to send you there tomorrow,” Marcus informed, with an early morning meeting on his agenda.
“No need, I've got it covered.” She planted a ki*s on his chin, exuding a hint of reliance. Much like a puppy eager to please its master, she added, “It's not far. I can grab a taxi on my own.” Uttering those words, her face tinged with a blush, she rose and made her way to the cloakroom, eager to assist in packing his belongings.
Initially, the task was designated for his secretary, but with someone now in close proximity to Marcus, he no longer had to delegate orders. Furthermore, he preferred having Melissa handle these responsibilities for him.

Bending down to pack his belongings, she made a concerted effort to stay as quiet as she could and not to disrupt his workflow.
A smile graced Marcus’ face. The suite spanned 700 square meters. How could possibly be disrupted by her presence? As the night grew late, Marcus toiled away on his work until three oclock in the morning.
Stretching, he noticed that Melissa was still occupied with her tasks.
Approaching her quietly, he gently took her hand and pulled her into his embrace. “It's just a suitcase. Is it really so challenging to pack it up?” he remarked.
A faint blush adorned Melissa's cheeks.
In a hushed tone, she divulged, “I've laundered and dried the clothes you've worn. When you return, you can stow them directly in the wardrobe. There is no need to send them to the cleaners anymore.” Marcus cast a glance at the neatly pressed garments.
The shirts, meticulously pressed, exuded a pristine appearance.
A tender sentiment washed over him. Caressing her head, he said softly, “I didn't marry you to turn you into a housekeeper. In time, we'll have servants to handle these tasks. There's no need for you to labor over them yourself.”
