How long had it been since she last saw him the moment she woke up? Almost every time she woke up, the space beside her was empty, and that feeling was truly disappointing.

“You don’t have to be busy today?” She looked at him and asked softly.

Upon hearing this, Baron Stuart’s expression slightly froze.

After looking at her for a long while, he slowly replied, “Not yet. I have some business in the UK, and I must go there in person.”

Upon hearing this, Emily Walker was stunned. Going to the UK?

“When?”

“Today, on a 10 AM flight.” Originally, it was supposed to be at 7 AM, but perhaps Baron Stuart wanted to take one more look at the woman in front of him and changed the time to 10 AM.

Hearing this, a void formed in Emily’s heart, but she didn’t let it show.

“How long will you be gone?” She asked again.

Baron Stuart lowered his gaze and pondered for a moment. “If everything goes smoothly, it should be three days. Otherwise, it might take a week.”

Once, no matter where he went, Baron Stuart could be decisive. Nowadays, however, there was a woman that made him worry.

As she thought about him being gone for so long, Emily couldn’t help but feel reluctant. But on the other hand, wasn’t she going to have a week of freedom too?

Heh… Upon thinking about it, the excited feeling inexplicably surged inside her originally reluctant heart.

She was not excited by him going on a business trip to the UK but rather because she wanted some personal freedom.

Since she had no personal space while he was there, she could only seize the opportunity of his absence during these few days!

Detecting her sudden change of expression, Baron Stuart slightly furrowed his brow.

What was this woman thinking just now? She appeared disappointed, but now he felt she seemed…excited?

He propped himself up and looked down at her from above. “What are you thinking that makes you so excited?”

Hm?

Emily blinked in surprise, quickly raising her gaze to look at him, feigning ignorance. “Nothing, I didn’t think about anything.”

“If you didn’t think about anything, then why were you smiling?” Baron Stuart asked.

Emily didn’t realize that in her moment of excitement, she had unconsciously revealed a faint smile. Although it wasn’t very apparent, how could it escape the discerning eyes of the ever-attentive Baron Stuart?

Upon hearing this, she hesitated. If Baron Stuart found out about this idea, she didn’t know if he would strangle her…

Her dark eyes shifted, and a flash of inspiration struck her as she came up with a good excuse. “Hehe…I was just thinking, when you come back from the UK, will you bring me a gift?”

Shouldn’t this reason be enough to make anyone happy and smile?

As expected, Baron Stuart looked at her with a mix of suspicion and disbelief.

Was it really just the excitement over a gift?

Time rolled around to 8:30 AM for breakfast, and with only an hour and a half before boarding, it was time for Baron Stuart to get up and pack his luggage.

Emily seemed to have realized how quickly time had passed, as she was already busy packing his luggage for the trip when he was still washing up.

It’s autumn here now, but what was the weather like in the UK…

Baron Stuart came out after washing up and saw her staring blankly at the wardrobe. He couldn’t help but furrow his brow in confusion and ask, “What’s wrong?”

Emily turned her head, looking at him with a dazed expression. “Is it autumn in the UK too?”

She had never been to the UK, and her geographical knowledge wasn’t very good, so she didn’t know much about the climate of some countries.

“Yes,” Baron Stuart replied lightly, then walked over and simply packed a few shirts and trousers into his luggage.
