Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You

They pressed on, the hours melting away.

Before long, they had tilled most of the field.

Gwen approached him, offering a bottle of fruit juice to help cool him down, while fanning him gently with her hand.

Take a break.noveldrama

Were done for today.

Hearing her words, Kyson laid down his tools and took the bottle, downing the contents in one long drink.

The refreshing juice perfectly countered the heat. Gwen pulled a clean handkerchief from her sleeve and delicately wiped the sweat from his brow, her eyes filled with kindness and concern.

Thank you for your hard work.

Tonight, you get to try my cooking, Gwen said with a smile.

Kyson instinctively grabbed Gwens wrist, his gaze intense, causing her cheeks to flush with unease.

She gently pulled away, averting her eyes and excusing herself, disappearing with a shy laugh.

Watching her retreat, Kyson smiled faintly and followed her.

Because of his gratitude to Gwen for saving his Life, Kyson justified all of her advances.

At dinnertime, Gwen had prepared a table laden with sumptuous fish dishes typical of the fishing village.

Gwen, doesnt your grandmother live here? he asked as she served him some food.

Pausing momentarily, Gwen explained, She often stays with sick local fishermen who need her care.

Would you like to meet her? She smiled sweetly, letting her hair brush against his cheek as she served him.

I was just wondering, since I havent seen her.

Gwen changed the subject playfully.

After trying my cooking, what kind of girl do you think I am? Innocent and pure, like a fairy-tale heroine, Kyson replied with a smile.

Gwen laughed, pleased with the compliment. You really know how to talk.

But youve been here for so long; dont your family worry about you? What do you even do for a living? Kyson responded calmly to her questions.

Didnt you take my phone for repairs? If I leave now, how will you find me later? Kysons question caught Gwen off guard.

She hadnt expected him to know that she had taken his phone.

Momentarily stunned, Gwen composed herself quickly.

I took it because it was broken and needs fixing.

Itll take some time.

You dont blame me, do you?
