Most importantly, she wanted to be with him!
Therefore, she could no longer be as hesitant as she was in the past!
With that thought in mind, Mashauva subconsciously tightened her arms around Bruno's neck and nestled into his arms, silent.
As they walked, many girls stared at her enviously as Bruno carried her in his arms.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Although the hotel was within walking distance, Bruno didn't dare walk quickly, taking a step at a time due to the flood.
He was afraid that he would slip and fall, hurting Mashauva in the process.
Moreover, he was also worried that the splashing would dirty her dress.
Nestling in his arms, Mashauva could clearly see that his shoes and pants were completely soaked when she lowered her head.
She was filled with mixed emotions at that.
They grew up with each other; although it was never obvious, she knew he was a clean freak.
However, right then, he walked in the floodwater just like that.
On the other hand, she was in his arms. The hem of her skirt wasn't the least bit tainted, let alone her legs.
Overcome with emotions due to this, in addition to her Ferris wheel experience, she nestled against his chest, calling out to him like a kitten.
"Bruno..."
"Hmm?"
"Thank you."
Hearing that, Bruno paused for a split second before he curled his lips up into a smile, saying as he walked, "Are you feeling bad for me? Do you want to come down and experience it?"
"Huh?" Mashauva thought she misheard him, but he continued, "You can practically swim in this water level."
Mashauva looked at him, stumped.
"Just kidding. The water's disgusting. Don't come down."
They weren't the only ones on the street. Mashauva took a few glances and found that everyone either walked on their own or the parents would carry their children on their backs.
As Bruno was the only one carrying her in his arms, passersby would take a second look at them; a few girls would even look at her with their envious gaze.
They finally arrived at the hotel after walking for about ten minutes. As soon as they walked into the lobby, a service staff immediately hurried over. "Mr. Collins, Miss Taylor, are you two alright?"
Mashauva looked at him in surprise. "How do you know us?"
Hearing that, the staff felt rather awkward, "You don't remember me, do you, Miss Taylor? This hotel belongs to the Taylor Group. You and Mr. Taylor came here once a few years ago."
Epiphany struck Mashauva.
Ah, she did come here once a few years ago. But wasn't she still a fatty then? He actually recognized her.
"You and Mr. Collins are both notable. That's why we know who you are."
"I see."
Realizing something, she said, "In this case, can you quickly arrange a room? Bruno's drenched."
"Sure, I'll get the presidential suite ready."
"Alright."
As she wanted Bruno to change out of his wet clothes as quickly as possible, she didn't think too much and nodded immediately. "Please come with me." "Bruno, let's go."
Mashauva wanted to hold his hand, but he took a step back and said softly, "You walk ahead."
Hearing that, Mashauva paused for a moment before she realized his intentions. She shook her head and said, "No, we're walking together."
He was afraid he would accidentally brush the murky water on his pants on her dress, wasn't he? But he had already walked so far with her in his arms. So what if her dress got a little dirty?
"Listen to me." Bruno ruffled her hair as he said, "I'm dirty."
"No!" Mashauva shook her head stubbornly. "Don't be like this, Bruno. I really don't mind."
However, Bruno didn't give in. Seeing that the staff was waiting by their side, and he wouldn't move an inch unless she did, she gave in and walked toward the elevator.
Seeing that she finally walked forward, Bruno heaved a sigh of relief and followed behind her.
However, after talking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and ran to him.
Bang!
Stumped, the young girl threw herself into his arms before he could register what was going on.
The impact sent him taking a few steps back.
Then she rubbed herself against his
torso as she said in a fit of pique "You're afraid of dirtying my dress, aren't you? I'm just as dirty as you are now, so you can't make me walk in front of you anymore."
Bruno was at a loss for words at that.
He looked down, only to see her glaring at him with her big dewy eyes, pouting.
He really hadn't seen it coming. He was indeed worried about dirtying her, but to his dismay, she threw herself at him, and they were now equally di
rty.
"Why are you so silly?" Bruno said, helplessly, "What if you catch a cold?"
"If you won't catch a cold, why would I?" Mashauva pouted and mumbled, "Can you walk with me now?"
"What do you think?"
Their clothes were now drenched
and dirtied; there was no point in making her walk in front anymore. Moreover, he could see how resolute she was, so he held her hand and said, resigned, "C'mon, let's go.
Seeing the two of them walking up, the staff said with a smile, "You two are so sweet."
And he fell silent after that, leading them to their room.
After entering the elevator, Mashauva realized they had gotten the hotel floor wet. Embarrassed, she said, "Um, I think we got the floor wet. What should we do?"
The staff remained courteous.
"Don't worry, Miss Taylor. I'll have our cleaners take care of it later."
"But wouldn't we be troubling them?"
"Don't worry, Miss Taylor. It's part of
their job, and our service t is that the guests are above all else. What's more, you're our future employer. We'd naturally be
attentive to your needs." Content

Hearing how the staff addressed her, Mashauva got rather self-conscious. "I'm not your employer; my father is."
"You're the only daughter of the Taylor family. The whole of Taylor Group will be yours one day."
When he put it that way, it made sense.
However, when she thought of all the business she was going to inherit, she felt troubled. Turning to Bruno, she asked, "Bruno, if I inherit my dad's business, I'll have to manage it, won't I?"
Bruno was silent for a moment before he replied, "You can hire professionals, but you should also
be aware of the important accounts."
"But if I don't know how to, will you help me?"
