Chapter 1367:
“I don’t possess any remarkable talents,” Scarlette mused suddenly.
“If I marry you, won’t that invite gossip?”
A roguish smirk played across Kenji’s features.
“Weren’t you the one who swore never to marry me?”
“I’m speaking hypothetically,” she countered.
“You’ll remain exactly who you are after marriage,” Kenji replied sincerely.
“There’s no need to change for my sake.”
Scarlette’s expression turned thoughtful.
“I have just one requirement for marriage.”
“Right, you prefer someone like your ex, frail enough to topple in a breeze and prone to wandering eyes.”
Scarlette shook her head solemnly.
“That’s merely my type, not necessarily my standard for settling down.”
“Then what is your standard?”
“Nothing too strict. My father simply says my husband shouldn’t fall short of his example.”
Kenji was smart. He knew better than to draw that comparison.
As the hurricane intensified outside, their passion mirrored its intensity. The floor-to-ceiling windows bore witness to their intimate dance as Kenji drew Scarlette close.
Their connection had deepened, and with experience came a newfound sensitivity. They moved in perfect harmony, as if reading each other’s thoughts.

The pleasure they discovered together proved intoxicating. True to her nature, Scarlette remained boldly honest about her desires, pursuing what she wanted with characteristic determination.
This directness complemented Kenji perfectly. It satisfied them both, allowing their passion to flourish naturally.
Yet, Scarlette’s youthful enthusiasm sometimes needed tempering. While she welcomed intensity in certain moments, too much proved overwhelming.
Tonight left Scarlette in a state of blissful exhaustion, her body too weary for movement. Kenji’s gentle aftercare included concerned questions about her comfort, though she could only respond with contented sighs.
Seeing her fatigue, Kenji quietly tended to her needs, ensuring her comfort with careful attention.
By the time sleep beckoned, all discomfort had faded, leaving only a pleasant warmth between them.
Kenji found himself lost in admiration of her peaceful form.
Scarlette stirred drowsily, catching his tender gaze, and shyly drew the covers closer.
“What are you doing?”
Kenji simply smiled and tucked the blanket around her.
Scarlette instinctively curled into his embrace, seeking his warmth.
