Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 726

"No, there are people outside."

"What are you afraid of? We're going to be husband and wife soon enough anyway."

"But, but..."

"No buts. Don't worry, my body and my heart belong only to you."

And with that, the two of them tumbled into another passionate embrace...

Listening from outside the door, Zachary couldn't help but bury his face in his hands.

Boss... Boss, this is taking things way too far...

Just then, the styling team walked back down the hall.

It was an absolute honor to be hired by the young master of Aethelgard's top family, so they had to ensure their work was flawless.

Even though the hair and makeup had been perfect earlier, they knew it would be a mess after the couple's intense romantic encounter.

This gig was their ultimate calling card. If they nailed it, word of mouth would spread that they were the stylists who personally groomed the Lance family heir.

That was far more effective than any paid advertisement.

Seeing the door still shut and Zachary hiding his face in his hands, they asked in hushed tones, "Is Mr. Lance still not finished?"

Lawrence was seriously... that incredible? It had been quite a while, and he was still going at it?

"No, the one from earlier is... finished."

Zachary stammered incoherently, acting as if he was the one doing something shameful.

"Finished? Then why is the door still closed? Is he getting dressed?"

They lowered their voices even further.

"No... no. He's with someone else now..."

"Ah! He's going at it with another one? The first one wasn't enough to satisfy him?

This... this..."

The wild antics of these wealthy heirs were truly beyond their comprehension.

"We'll just head out for now and come back later."

The stylists practically sprinted away as if their shoes were greased.

It was always better to stay completely ignorant of a rich heir's private affairs. Knowing too much could get you killed without even knowing why.

He attentively led the two of them forward. "Your seats are right next to him."

Hearing that the highly anticipated guests had finally arrived, every single guest turned their eyes toward the entrance.

Stepping into the crowd's line of sight was a breathtakingly flawless couple.

The dazzling light from the crystal chandeliers spilled over the man's crisp black suit. The custom House of Laurent tailoring perfectly accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist.

His priceless silk bowtie was meticulously knotted, and his understated obsidian cufflinks echoed the deep, commanding darkness of his eyes.

Beside him stood a woman in a moonlight-white mermaid gown. The crushed diamonds embedded in the flowing skirt caught the light with every step, shimmering like a galaxy of stars.

Her delicate red lips were full and inviting, curving into a faint smile that revealed a soft dimple on her left cheek. The sapphire necklace resting against her collarbone flawlessly matched her earrings, making her luminous skin look even more radiant.

They looked exactly like models who had just stepped off the cover of a high-end fashion magazine. Every single detail was impossibly exquisite.

"They're stunning. How can such a beautiful couple exist in this world?"

"Are they the stars of today's event?"

"Wait, is this engagement banquet actually for them?"

"Wow! House of Laurent! Auspicious Jewelers! Who on earth are they?"
