You Are My Mr Right

He wondered if she had regretted her past with that man. Otherwise, why would she say such things just now?

“I…” Freya opened her mouth, but Elijah kissed her lips.

The lights suddenly went out. Whether it was a power outage or a short circuit, the result was a blackout. Everything fell into darkness as if back to that night. No one could see each other. But they were doing the most intimate thing in the world.

Freya closed her eyes as if by instinct, not pushing Elijah away but responding to his kiss willingly. Because of her initiative, Elijah sought more. They forgot everything, kissing each other passionately. It seemed like there were only the two of them between heaven and earth. In that moment, it felt like it was impossible to think. The brains went blank, and everything was under the control of the other.

“Let’s break up. I don’t love you…” In the midst of a sudden power outage, the lights came back on, the TV resumed playing, and the Korean drama continued, with the lines still audible.

Freya was pulled back to reality by the light and the TV sound. She regained her thoughts and opened her eyes. At that moment, Elijah was also looking at her. Their eyes met, and both of them were visibly stunned. It seemed that things had been too harmonious just now. Both were disheveled, and it was evident that they had both been moved.

Avoiding eye contact, Freya quickly pushed Elijah away and hurriedly fled upstairs. Closing the bedroom door, she covered her rapidly beating heart. She had actually felt a hint of familiarity with Elijah’s body and breath just now, recalling her that night.

Thinking of this, Freya began to panic. But there was also a hint of anticipation in her heart. She tried to figure out this unexplained sense of familiarity.

…

Elijah, pushed away by Freya, lay in a somewhat embarrassed state on the sofa. It seemed that he was still savoring everything that had just happened. This woman always had a way of arousing his desire for the opposite sex without making a sound.

In the morning, when Freya went to work, she deliberately avoided meeting Elijah. She pretended to be asleep and didn’t get up for breakfast until she saw Elijah leave through the window.

“Why are you avoiding Mr Silverton?” Linda saw through her thoughts at a glance.

Freya stuffed food into her mouth, lowering her head. She couldn’t explain. If it weren’t for the power outage last night, she might have… done something with Elijah. She considered herself not to be that kind of woman. She was a restrained person.

But she had almost had a relationship with Elijah, which made her embarrassed. So, she deliberately avoided meeting him. She went to work as usual. After work, she saw Elijah’s car parked at the entrance of the dance studio.

Her footsteps hesitated. Why did he come back?

The secretary came over. “Mr Silverton asked you to come over.”

Freya glanced around and, finding no one in sight, quickly walked over and got into the car.

“I have a social engagement, go with me.” Elijah said.

Freya nodded and replied, “Sure.”

The car drove for a while and soon stopped in front of an upscale private custom dress shop. The secretary got out and said to Freya, “This way, please.”

Freya looked at Elijah as if asking with her eyes.

Elijah said, “Go with her.”

Only then did Freya get out of the car and followed the secretary into the shop.

The secretary said, “I’m Dina Kensington. I made a reservation over the phone.”

The clerk checked the reservation list and found her name. “You reserved the limited edition ‘Starry Sky’ high-end dress for this year. Please follow me.”

They were led upstairs by the clerk.

“Please wait here for a moment. Our staff will bring it over soon.”

Soon, three staff members brought the dress.

“Please go try it on.”

Freya stood up and went over.

They had professional personnel help Freya put on the dress and provide corresponding makeup and dress matching.

“Are you going to put a lot of stuff on my face?” asked Freya.

She didn’t like makeup in the first place. Now that she was pregnant, she used even less. There were additives inside, afraid it would affect the baby’s development.

The makeup artist smiled and replied, “Don’t worry, I won’t give you heavy makeup. It doesn’t suit you.”

“Thank you.”

An hour later, Freya went downstairs. The secretary opened the car door for her. She bent down and got in the car. It was her first time dressing up so grandly and formally, a bit uncomfortable, and she seemed a bit restrained.

Elijah stared at her.

The dress was strapless and slim-fitted. If the figure wasn’t good, the chest wouldn’t hold up, and there would be fat accumulation at the waist. She was slim, with a well-proportioned figure, accentuating the right places. The skirt had a gradient color, from light to dark, with layers of thin gauze adorned with scattered diamonds. As she walked, it sparkled like stars.

Elijah seemed very familiar with her figure, and he was very satisfied with the effect.

Freya bit her lip lightly. “I’m just a doctor. I may not be good at some social events. Is there anything I need to pay attention to?”

Anyway, she didn’t want to embarrass Elijah.

Elijah smiled, “Just follow me, you don’t need to worry about anything.”

“Okay.”

This was an upscale cocktail party attended by prominent figures. Ordinary people wouldn’t receive an invitation. The venue was filled with light and intertwining conversations. Men, all in suits, were formal and meticulous, chatting with each other to expand their networks. Women were the men’s facade, meticulously dressed up. Although Elijah was young, he was among the best of his generation. Naturally, he became the focus. As soon as he entered, everyone’s eyes were on him.

“Elijah, you’ve been single all this time, never brought a companion to events. This time is a bit different,” said the host of the event, Jasper Green, the chairman and CEO of EXELLENCe Group.

There was a hint of surprise in his eyes because Elijah had come with a woman today.

Elijah smiled, “Everyone is the same, I can’t be an exception.”

A waiter passed by, and Jasper Green took two glasses of wine from inside, handing one to Elijah. “It’s a pleasure that you could make it today. I’m truly happy.”

“It’s Mr Green’s invitation, I naturally had to attend.”

Small talk in the business world continued.

Freya was holding onto Elijah. Today, she was just an accompaniment, and she didn’t stand out, spoke little, and stayed honest. But following Elijah, she couldn’t avoid attention.

“Miss, I haven’t seen you before. Which wealthy family are you from?” Jasper Green asked with a smile.

Freya’s family was not something she could boast about in this situation. Although Leo Stone managed a small company, the assets weren’t high. However, she didn’t back down. Instead, she responded gracefully, “My last name is Stone. I’m not from a wealthy family. It’s an honor to be here today.”

Jasper Green paused for a moment and then laughed heartily, “You’re so eloquent at such a young age. Must be taught by Elijah, right?”

Freya smiled gracefully. She didn’t respond further. But in her actions, she leaned closer to Elijah. It seemed actions spoke louder than words. She belonged to Elijah.

Jasper Green said, “Feel free. I’ll go greet Mr Corbin.”

Elijah said, “Take your time.”

“Dad, who’s that woman?” Jasper Green’s daughter immediately asked as he returned to the lounge.
