Chapter 54: 55、You in the Depths of Memory

“Mr. Gordon, where are we?” Ivy Aretha felt a little uneasy, and her voice trembled slightly as she spoke, “What are we doing here on a business trip? Are we lost?”

For some reason, Ivy felt a strange connection to the desolate, ancient city she found herself in, as if she had been there many years ago in some distant memory. Yet, she couldn’t remember anything concrete.

For the life of her, she couldn’t recall anything!

“So, are you afraid now? Is it too late?”

Michael Gordon chuckled as he spoke. He turned to see that her face had turned pale and beads of sweat formed on her brow. Realizing that something was amiss, he quickly placed a hand on her forehead and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Uh?

“My belly hurts a bit!” Ivy blurted out, still somewhat taken aback by their surroundings.

“Let’s go then. There’s a hotel up ahead in this ancient town. We can find a place to stay first!” Michael helped Ivy by carrying her handbag and suitcases. He let her walk ahead so she was within his line of sight.

“Going to a hotel now?” Upon hearing this, Ivy panicked, “You didn’t ask your secretary to book a hotel for our business trip?!”

This remote ancient town appeared to be a primitive tourist spot. Without prior hotel reservations, they might very well end up homeless for the night.

“Secretary?” Michael looked at her and emphasized the word, “Don’t you know who my secretary is?”

In an instant, Ivy realized that before Anna, the recently returned secretary, had arrived, she was the one acting as Michael’s secretary. “Ahem, you didn’t tell me earlier, did you? Let’s go now and try our luck. Maybe there’s still a room available. Besides, with money, such trivial matters can be resolved easily!”

At this point, Ivy remembered that Michael had enough money to buy ten or even more hotels. There’s no way he would let her sleep on the streets, right?

Hehe

Money? Indeed, if he wasn’t so wealthy, would he need to spend so extravagantly on a woman?

Together, Ivy and Michael checked out the best hotels in town, only to find that all the rooms were booked for the weekend.

“Mr. Gordon, where’s your money? Now that we have nowhere to stay, won’t you show off your wealth?” Ivy complained weakly, dragging her exhausted body along, “They say money can work wonders. Can’t you just offer them 10,000 or 8,000 USD to free up a room for us?”

Michael Gordon: “…”

How come his woman was more extravagant than him? Could he truly afford her in the future? Shouldn’t men be the ones spending money while women insisted on saving it?

Why did his woman have so much potential to be a spendthrift? Thankfully, his pockets were deep enough to accommodate her habits; otherwise, his money would never be spent!

Seeing her sickly pallor, CEO Gordon decided not to make Ivy walk any further. And so, he decided to offer a whopping 10,000 USD to book a luxurious presidential suite which had been reserved by someone else.

“Mr. and Mrs. Gordon, please come this way and leave your fingerprints!”

When the hotel manager addressed them, Ivy was first shocked by the title, then quickly realized the awkward situation she would soon be facing.

“Wait, I’m not Mrs. Gordon…”

“Ahem, being a girlfriend is the same!” The hotel manager chuckled. A man and woman booking a room together must be a couple or at least dating. This man looked far too noble to be keeping a mistress on the side.

“Uh, manager, is there really only one room left?” Ivy knew full well there were no other rooms available but couldn’t help herself from asking, “Couldn’t you have squeezed out one more just now?”

“Just now?” Michael’s face darkened, “That room just now was bought with 10,000 USD, not ‘squeezed out’!”

He didn’t go to all the trouble of bringing her here just to spend 10,000 USD on a room for her!

The hotel manager understood what had happened after seeing Michael’s expression. This must be a couple with the man desiring intimacy while the woman remained coy. He had witnessed such situations many times before and was quite accustomed to it.

“Ahem, miss, it’s perfectly normal for young people to stay together these days. Although your boyfriend is rich, that doesn’t mean you should waste resources and force other guests to sleep on the streets!”

The hotel manager’s words carried a righteous, conscientious tone, making him seem like an honest businessman.

With the conversation at this point, Ivy had no choice but to comply. She followed Michael to leave their fingerprints and then went upstairs. Luckily, they had spent 10,000 USD on this hotel room, which came with a living room, study, laundry room, etc.

This was already the most luxurious room in this ancient town. Since CEO Gordon had brought her here, he must have made thorough preparations; he would never let his woman endure any discomfort!

“Mr. Gordon, what are we doing in this desolate scenic area on this business trip?”

Ivy stared at him in alarm. In this rundown place, aside from it being a primitive tourist destination, was there anything else here that required CEO Gordon’s personal attention during a business trip? Could it be…

Ivy instinctively covered her chest, suddenly becoming more vigilant. She had suffered a setback six years ago – she wouldn’t let it happen again!

“Of course, it’s to evaluate this scenic area’s development value! We’re here to assess it and, if it’s valuable enough, buy it and use it as Allure International’s future film and TV shooting base. That way, later on…”

Michael stopped halfway through his explanation as he noticed a change in her expression. He immediately understood her fear and looked at her with a hint of a devilish smile. “You don’t think I brought you all this way just to sleep with you, do you?”

Upon hearing his words, Ivy felt her heart explode, and her face turned beet red!

“Tsk, tsk, I guess I was right!”

Just when Ivy thought he would scold her, Michael leaned in and pressed his lips against hers. “Since you’re already thinking this way, as a man, if I don’t make a move, you’ll think I have some performance issues, right? If the word gets out, then my future…!”

“No, no, I won’t spread it; Mr. Gordon, you must be superb in that department!”

Indeed, he must be superb – she had experienced it firsthand six years ago. He had tormented her throughout the night so much that her bones nearly broke. Not only that, even his firing rate was high, producing a child in a single passionate night!
