"Got it, Master! Right, Master, earlier I got news that Layla's returned to the Hudson residence. I think it must be because of Victoria's scandal. The government's process of signing the documents have yet to be completed. Thankfully, they just want to retract and straight up deny that it ever happened."

"We can't let the scandal subside just like that. Think of a way to let that document get through tomorrow itself, and let the media have a trace to follow," Xavier said before hanging up. At this moment, coincidentally, the study room door was pushed open. Arya walked in with a glass of water in her hand.

"You go bathe too. I've prepared the water for you."

She put the glass of water beside his hand, then bent over to pull open a drawer and take out a USB from inside. It had the South River project documents on it.

"Don't look at them now. Rest well these next two days."

He reached over to take the USB from her and tossed it back into the drawer as he slowly got her to get up with his arms around her.

"I wanted to finish the few graphs..." Arya hesitated for a moment and protested.

"It's the same if you do it during working hours. I have something for you." His deep voice brushed past her ears. He held her by her slender shoulders and his hand reached over to the tall bookshelf behind. Then, he took a folder down and casually handed it to her.

"What is it?" She looked up in puzzlement at him and asked softly.

His handsome brows raised and he grinned.

"Won't you know once you open it?"

"How mysterious!" Arya softly nagged before opening the folder. When she pulled the document out, she saw the details of Johns Culture Media Company!

Her eyes lit up and she quickly flipped through the document and roughly examined it. A while after that, her beautiful face flashed with a radiant smile. She could not help but look at him with admiration.

"How did you get it so quickly?"

He smiled without a word. Obviously, he would not tell her that actually since last year, he had already begun attending to this matter.

"37%? With this, you can already become Johns's Media second-largest shareholder! But why is this 17% assigned to my name?"

Arya looked a little shocked as she waved the document in her hand. She could not hide the pleasant surprise in her eyes.

He smiled calmly and lowered his eyes. Gesturing at the document in her hand, his gaze fell onto her delicate little face.

"It's my wedding gift to you. Do you like it?"

When she heard this, Arya was stunned. She quietly looked at the document in her hand and peeked at that familiar bold and flowy signature at the bottom of the page. A warmth suddenly flashed across her heart and she started to turn misty-eyed.

Quite a while after that, she looked up at him and happily nodded. She said in a slightly raspy voice,

"I like it. I... I thought that it would never return to me ever again..."

"Even without that, I could obviously help you fight for it. How would it have never returned to you?"

His sentimental and tender voice spoke, bringing a hint of consolation with it, yet it made her choke up for some reason. Her chest suddenly felt stifled and upset.

Finally, she could not hold back and reached out to gently surround his waist with her arms, submitting into his embrace. She clenched the document tightly in her hand and said in a hoarse voice,
