But... Summer Shawcross vaguely noticed a commonality.

The actions of the JR Group mentioned in the news were all originally planned for a few years later, but recently they have all been accelerated into preparation.

With so many plans moved up, it’s hard for Noah Drexler not to be busy.

What she doesn’t understand is, Noah Drexler has already reached a height that others cannot, in terms of status... why does he still push himself so hard?

The news made her speculate, he wants to complete plans set for years later all within a short period of time...

This sudden speculation left Summer Shawcross momentarily stunned.

While she was in shock, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open.

Hearing the noise, Summer turned off her phone screen, then settled properly on the sofa.

Noah was striding in from outside, unbuttoning his suit as he walked.

When he reached the sofa, he took off his suit and tossed it onto the sofa, then sat down beside her, naturally extending his arm to wrap around her waist.

"What are you hiding your phone for?" His deep voice sounded by her ear as he lowered his head.

Hearing his voice, Summer was taken aback, not expecting that he had seen her little action earlier.

"You’re busy with overtime work every day, I was just looking at some gossip news out of boredom." She muttered, with an unintended tinge of displeasure in her voice.

Noah, of course, noticed, and after listening to her, narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a moment before speaking softly, suddenly asking her.

"Are you upset?"

Is she upset because he’s been too busy with work recently?

As Noah’s voice fell, Summer couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him, then pretended to be dismissive.

"I’m not angry at all."

Hearing her denial, Noah’s face clearly showed doubt.

Just as he was about to say something, Summer’s resentful voice suddenly rang out again.

"Go ahead and be busy then, but don’t regret it when we get old and your health has deteriorated from overworking yourself, while I’m still out enjoying myself looking all fresh and pretty!" She bit her lip, warning him with discontent.

If he doesn’t cherish his own health now, he’ll regret it in the future when he’s older.

Just as Summer thought Noah would be upset by her words, the bedroom remained silent.

He didn’t say a word.

Curiously, she raised her head to look at him.

At that moment, she met his eyes, and only then did she realize he had been looking at her in a... serious yet gentle way.

She was stunned... gentle... indeed, she wasn’t mistaken. She saw an obvious gentleness in his eyes, without any trace of concealment.

"What’s up, why are you staring at me like that all of a sudden?" Summer was startled by his gaze and couldn’t help but ask him.

If she hadn’t just taken a shower, she’d really suspect there was something dirty on her face making him stare at her so intently.

When she asked, Noah’s gaze didn’t shift, but he suddenly raised his hand, his long fingers landing on her face...

Just as Summer was looking at him in surprise, he suddenly pinched her face lightly and then frowned.
