Back in her private plane, Raine slept soundly, only waking up because of the grumbling in her stomach. Slowly opening her eyes, her face twitched upon seeing that Tyrone wasn’t on the bed with her. She looked at her wristwatch, taking note that she had slept for about an hour. Getting up from her bed and taking a quick shower, she changed into a very comfortable loose dress before going out of the room.
Looking around, she noticed Tyrone in the dining area.
’Was he cooking?’
"Why are you doing that? Didn’t you sleep?" Raine asked as she sat at the table and watched him cook like it was the most natural thing in the world.
’Did she really think that I could sleep with her snuggling at me like that?’ Tyrone inwardly complained. "I’m cooking since I can’t sleep and I’m bored. Besides, you cooked for me before, so think of this as my way of repaying your good gesture." He tossed his pan. "I’m almost done and I’m sure you’re starving," he commented. After all, it was almost past the usual lunchtime.
"Yeah, I’m starving, so make sure that it’s something delicious," Raine said with a smile as she waited for Tyrone to prepare the table and serve her the meal. "How come you can’t sleep beside me while I slept perfectly fine in your arms?" Raine asked.
Tyrone cleared his throat, "Maybe I’m just not as tired and sleepy as you." He didn’t say anything more, electing to simply serve their lunch. "The flight attendant will just reheat some ready-made packages, and I hate eating those so I just cooked with what they have. I found something fresh in their refrigerator," Tyrone mumbled.
Raine laughed, "Hey, we’re on my private plane and my staff is all capable of cooking good food. That’s why they have stock in the refrigerator. Admit it, you just wanted to impress me with your cooking skills," she teased.
Tyrone didn’t comment. He was already busted anyway. He didn’t want to impress her, though. He simply wanted to cook for her personally.
"That’s prawn tomato and chili pasta. I’ll go get the toasted bread," Tyrone said.
Raine smiled and started digging in. He was a good cook. It was such a simple dish, and yet it tasted lovely.
Tyrone returned soon after and joined her as they both ate in silence. After a while, Raine called for the stewardess to serve them white wine.
"You should cook for me more often whenever you can," Raine commented in the middle of eating.
Tyrone didn’t respond, and Raine wasn’t bothered by it at all. If he was another person, however, she would have probably taught the man a lesson already.
"Can you tell me more about yourself?" Raine asked, looking straight into Tyrone’s eyes. She was so interested in him for some reason that she wanted to learn more about him. However, she still didn’t trust the data Mia found on Tyrone. She felt that there was more to it, so she wanted Tyrone to tell it to her personally.
"I’m sure you’ve done your investigation about me. There’s nothing much to tell, to be honest," Tyrone replied.
The stewardess arrived with the bottle of white wine, and Tyrone grabbed it so he could pour them a glass each.
Raine grabbed the glass of wine Tyrone poured for her and gently swirled the glass as she said, "I honestly don’t believe what was written in the report."
"And again, there’s nothing much to know," Tyrone insisted.
Raine stopped pursuing the topic. At the same time, the pilot spoke through the speaker, informing them that they would reach their destination in approximately thirty minutes.
"What to do in thirty minutes..." Raine mused before finishing off her glass of wine.
"What’s your plan when the plane lands?" Tyrone asked.
"We’ll go to our penthouse to rest. I still have to report and start working at the hospital tomorrow," Raine commented.
"What about me?" Tyrone snorted.
Raine chuckled, "What about you, darling?"
"What should I do? I mean, my job is to be right next to you. And you said it yourself. I have to be with you twenty-four-seven," Tyrone answered.
Raine had a pleased smile, "Now, we’re talking... If you want, I’ll make you my secretary since I haven’t accepted any secretaries suggested by the hospital yet. Their HR is very strict, but I can pull a few strings and let you in easily," Raine commented with a seductive smile.
Mia had already fixed it, after all. The Yang Globals Hospital used electronics manufactured by the Yue Groups, so it was laughably easy for them to hack the hospital systems. Tyrone was already registered in the system as her secretary.
"Alright then," Tyrone nodded before drinking from his wine glass.
"So you can report everything, well, to my uncle..." Raine added.
"Why did you still hire me when you suspect me as your uncle’s spy?" Tyrone asked.
"Suspect? I don’t suspect you, darling. I know precisely that Uncle is using you to spy on me," Raine said with a smirk.
She stood up from her chair. Walking towards him, she then sat on his lap, straddling him without properly arranging her dress underneath.
"Why are you always like this?" Tyrone complained with a frown. It wasn’t like he could just toss her to the ground! That would be too ungentlemanly! Her scent was just so endearing and addicting that he inwardly cursed under his breath.
"And why are you always hard whenever I sit in your lap?" Raine questioned back.
Tyrone gulped, his face turning deep red in embarrassment. Raine wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "I want to torture you because you’re a tough nut to crack. Maybe if I seduce you like this, then you’ll fall for me and confess to me everything that I want to know."
Tyrone shook his head and mumbled, "You’re so unbelievable..."
"And you’re so horny..." Raine whispered in his ear with a smirk. She was wearing a flair dress so she could perfectly feel his bulge between her thighs. She intentionally moved as if naively brushing herself against him.
Tyrone gulped. It was too much for his control. He had to do something, or else...
Before he could even move, Tyrone suddenly felt Raine’s soft and sweet lips moving against his pursed lips.
