Jessica had gone too far. She attracted all the attention on the way.
Stefan was delighted. Leonardo always enjoyed looking at beautiful women.
Everything went well. Nothing happened on the way.
“Brigadier General Evans, thanks for your hard work. Please leave the rest to us!” A man greeted Stefan and showed him his ID card.
As expected, a plane from the war department was ready for a long flight to the airport in Manskarta.
Stefan nodded and said to Jessica, “Ms. Carter, goodbye. I hope we don’t change much when we meet again.”
Jessica said earnestly, “Mr. Evans, you’re facing more dangers than me. Please take care…”
Under the protection of the staff from the War Department, Jessica boarded the plane. She stopped at the cabin door and looked back, smiling at Stefan and waving her hand.
Stefan lightly nodded and waved his hand. “Have a safe flight!”
After Jessica boarded the plane, it soon took off and headed straight for Manskarta.
Hannah stood next to him with her hands in her pockets, saying mockingly, “You don’t want her to go?”
Stefan laughed loudly and wrapped her neck with his arm, pulling her into his embrace and heading out of the airport.
Stefan didn’t ask Hannah to go to work today, and of course, he wouldn’t go, either. They went shopping and watched a movie.
Leonardo was going to meet Natasha tomorrow. Leonardo had to take a good rest and adjust himself today.
Meditation was certainly the best way, but Stefan didn’t think that suited him. Although he was very lazy, he found it uncomfortable to sit still.
In the afternoon, Jessica texted Stefan and told him she had arrived in Manskarta safely and met her family. She thanked him for taking care of her in the text.
“Jessica has arrived in Manskarta safely. I’m relieved.” Stefan smiled lightly at Hannah.
Hannah also felt relieved. They were worried the most when Jessica was in danger. If anything bad happened to Jessica, no one could take such big blame.
When it was time for dinner, Wendy held a small party and invited everyone to come over for dinner. Joe, Hannah, Benita, and some important senior executives from the Giradia Group and Poly Capital were present.
“Tomorrow will be the real final stage. I hope our efforts will not be in vain.” Wendy raised the glass and smiled at everyone.
“Cheers!” Everyone echoed and drank up the wine in one gulp.
Stefan drank juice instead of wine. Leonardo had to maintain his best state.
Leonardo went through so many turbulent things yesterday, and at this moment, his physical condition had not fully recovered.
When everyone was talking, he focused on eating and put chunks of beef and mutton into his mouth. Leonardo ate food with high protein.
Everyone was curious. Only Hannah knew him best. She kept putting food on his plate and adding gravy to his steak like a good wife.
After he was through, Stefan felt comfortable and said, “Ms. Giradia, please take us to the hot springs and have a massage. I want some relaxation.”
The executives who had worked for Wendy for many years fell silent. They knew her well. No one dared to make such a rude request to her.
“Okay, I will take care of all the expenses today!” Unexpectedly, Wendy agreed.
Everyone exchanged a glance and cheered, thinking Wendy had changed.
In the past, she was aloof and not like a human being. There was a touch of warmth on her now. However, when they were about to set off, Benita said she was not going.
Wendy glanced at her and said, “Don’t worry. There are private rooms. If you don’t like to be with someone, you can stay in the private room.”
Benita smiled and said, “Forget it. It’s not convenient for me.”
Wendy stopped persuading her. She didn’t know if Benita meant it or if she was afraid of some nasty man.
Everyone was disappointed when they learned that Benita would not go. After all, it would be the highlight of the night if they could see Benita wearing a bathing suit in the hot spring.
Benita left the people and went back home alone. She took off her clothes and stood in front of the bathroom mirror.
There were irregular scars on her back, thighs, and arms. These were old scars from childhood.
It’s not that I don’t want to go. I feel inferior with this…
Benita sighed sorrowfully.
When others saw the scars, they would ask her what had happened, but she didn’t want to mention the past.
The only thing that consoled her a little was that Stefan texted her and asked her to go to Forest Park and practice tomorrow morning.
Wendy was a regular customer of Freeview Hot Springs. It was expensive here. The masseurs were professional, and the service cost over eight hundred dollars one hour. When she felt tired, she came here to enjoy the hot springs and massages. She knew how to enjoy a good life.
Stefan and Hannah took a small pool. Stefan waved off the other men. Leonardo enjoyed the warm water and felt relaxed. There were little fishes in the pool eating scurf.
Admiring Hannah’s perfect figure in the hot springs, Stefan sighed with satisfaction.
It was a pity that Benita was not here. If he could see her in a swimming suit, he would be overjoyed.
When Stefan was chatting and laughing with Hannah, Wendy’s secretary came and said, “Mr. Evans, Ms. Giradia wants to see you.”
She was wearing a white bikini, which flattered her slender legs. She was pretty, and she looked at Stefan with affectionate eyes.
Stefan was amused. She never forgot to seduce him.
“I’m going to have a chat with Wendy. You stay here.” Stefan got up and shook off the water.
People nearby couldn’t help looking at him.
They sat in the office all day, and they suffered from obesity. Looking at Stefan’s athletic body, they envied him.
Stefan followed the secretary to a private room. Leonardo opened the door and went in. There were two beds inside, separated by a hazy gauze curtain.
Wendy was lying on a bed.
When she saw Stefan come, she said, “Please feel free to order.”
Stefan lay down directly on the bed next to her. Not long after, two masseuses in their thirties came in. Of course, Stefan would enjoy the massage that cost eight hundred dollars an hour. It was a real massage service without any extra activities, different from those in Water Association.
Stefan lay down and looked at Wendy. Leonardo swallowed hard.
Through the gauze curtain, he could vaguely see Wendy taking off her clothes. After lying down, her entire smooth back was exposed to the air.
Stefan wanted to steal a few more glances, but the masseur unwisely put a thin towel on Wendy’s back and rubbed it with essence oil.
