Ch. 109 Gwen Wants to Meet Diana
🕑 Added 2023-10-27 16:01:01 +0000 UTCToday's Gwen was quite different from the Gwen in Russell's memory.
Although Gwen's appearance hadn't changed, he could clearly sense that Gwen was different now.
If it were any other time, he would surely ask Gwen what was going on.
However, now that Gwen had explicitly requested him not to speak or ask questions, he decisively abandoned the idea of questioning.
Time passed slowly.
The battle between Russell and Gwen finally came to an end.
After the battle, Gwen lay in Russell's arms like a lazy kitten.
Neither Russell nor Gwen spoke now, silently feeling each other's heartbeats and body warmth.
Russell's right hand wandered over Gwen's flawless smooth back, experiencing her unusually tender skin that was different from ordinary people.
Gwen wasn't idle either; she lay on his chest, her index finger drawing circles around his Adam's apple.
They remained like this for more than ten minutes before Russell tapped Gwen's shoulder, indicating for her to get up.
A few minutes later, after they had both put on their clothes again, they sat face-to-face, Russell looking at Gwen's exquisite and alluring face.
"Can you tell me now what happened?"
Russell gazed at Gwen and spoke slowly.
Gwen didn't immediately answer; she lowered her head and thought for several tens of seconds.
Then, she raised her head, locking eyes with Russell using her large captivating eyes, and said seriously, "I want to talk to your girlfriend!"
"What?"
Upon hearing Gwen's words, Russell felt like his heart skipped a beat.
"I said, I want to talk to your girlfriend!"
Gwen repeated herself.
"Wait, why do you want to talk to my girlfriend?"
Russell had never hidden the fact that he had a girlfriend from Gwen.
In fact, when Gwen was investigating his identity, she had already learned of Diana's existence.
However, Gwen hadn't said anything about it; she hadn't brought up the matter herself either.
"For no particular reason, I just want to meet her and have a chat!"
Although Gwen said it casually, Russell still felt something was off.
Before he could reply, Gwen continued, "You don't need to waste brain cells finding excuses to reject me. Regardless of whether you agree or not, I will go meet her."
"I know her name, and I also know where she works. I'm just letting you know ahead of time, so you don't have to feel awkward!"
No, Miss!
It's already awkward enough for me that you want to meet Diana!
While Diana didn't mind his occasional flings, she had never met any of them, let alone them coming to her door voluntarily.
Wait a minute!
Strictly speaking, Gwen couldn't be categorized as a fling!
Flight attendants and college girls were flings.
Gwen was like his favorite restaurant, a place he visited once in a while, much different from a casual fling.
"Well, if you really want to meet Diana, I won't stop you."
"However, I must remind you that Diana isn't an ordinary person. You'd better not treat her like an average woman."
After some thought, Russell spoke slowly.
Women raised in America were distinctly different from those raised in his households.
This difference wasn't just about appearances and daily habits; it was mainly about their way of thinking.
Since Gwen had been so upfront, Russell could only agree to her meeting Diana.
To be precise, whether he agreed or not didn't matter much. Since Gwen had decided, she would definitely do it.
"Don't worry, I won't bully your girlfriend. I just want to talk to her!"
Gwen said gently.
Bully Diana?
Upon hearing Gwen's words, Russell helplessly shook his head.
Just not bullying Diana is already good enough!
With Russell's approval, Gwen came to him and kissed his forehead.
Then, she put on her mask and left the office without looking back.
As soon as Gwen left the office, Russell immediately took out his phone and called Diana.
Within a few seconds, Diana picked up the call.
Russell didn't waste any time and quickly informed Diana about Gwen's intention to meet her.
The Octopus Monster headquarters wasn't far from the Natural History Museum where Diana worked.
With Gwen's speed, it would take at most five or six minutes.
After explaining, Diana burst into laughter on the other end of the line.
Laughed like a queen.
"Mr. Bradley, it seems your ability to handle matters is declining. You can't even handle a 20-year-old girl!"
Normally, if Diana called him "Mr. Bradley," Russell would immediately suspect that he had done something wrong again.
However, right now, he sensed Diana's teasing.
"Respected Miss Prince, this isn't a joking matter. Gwen might say or do something extreme when she meets you. If that happens, can you overlook it due to her young age and not take it to heart?"
"Young age? So are you implying that I'm an old woman?"
Diana's tone suddenly turned icy from teasing.
Damn it!
Russell cursed himself inwardly.
"No, that's not what I meant! You know, in my heart, you're forever the youngest and most beautiful queen!"
Russell quickly explained.
"Never mind, I know what you mean. Don't worry, I won't bully a young girl."
"You got yourself into this mess; we'll talk about it more tonight when you get back!"
After speaking, Diana hung up the phone.
When Diana ended the call, Russell finally let out a sigh of relief.
That's all he could do.
The rest would be up to Gwen herself.
Having dealt with this completely unexpected episode, Russell had no inclination to handle any other matters. He returned to his desk and started playing 'Assassin's Creed'."
Time passed gradually.
After more than an hour, just as he had completed a perfect stealth mission, assassinating a boss in broad daylight, Gwen entered his office once again.
Compared to when she left, Gwen's appearance hadn't changed.
Her delicate face had no scars, and her limbs were intact.
Her tight-fitting uniform was clean, without any dust or signs of tearing.
The only difference was that Gwen's mood seemed a bit cheerful now, though Russell wasn't sure what had brightened her spirits.
Before he could get up, Gwen came to him and sat directly on his desk.
"I had a chat with Diana, and she's really nice. You, you womanizer, are incredibly lucky!"
Gwen pointed at Russell's chest with her finger and said earnestly.
