Nicole thought Evan volunteered to sleep on the couch.
She cleared her throat, “I’d feel bad if I made you sleep on the couch. This is your house, after all.”
Evan thought about it for a bit and nodded, “You’re right. We shall not sleep on the couch then.”
Excuse me?
What are you talking about?
Where are we going to sleep then?
Nicole looked at him in disbelief.
Evan stood up and walked towards the master bedroom.
It was obvious that he wanted to spend a night in her room.
Nicole did not know how to react to this.
Have you no shame?
I didn’t even give you the greenlight!
Nicole followed behind and walked towards her bedroom as well.
“Mr. Seet, I think I should just sleep on the couch. I…”
“I thought I made it clear? Let’s just sleep on the same bed. Do you have a problem with this?”
Nicole became speechless upon seeing how chill Evan was.
Of course, I have a problem sharing the same bed with a man!
“Relax, I won’t do anything to you. I promise.”
“Mr. Seet, I…”
“Shush. Go to bed.”
What?
How can he be so domineering?
Nicole stood still and refused to move. Evan then locked the room’s door and arranged his and her pillows properly.
At this point, everything in the room made Nicole feel uncomfortable.
She grumbled in silence while opening her wardrobe and took out her pajamas. After walking to the bathroom and locking the door, she stood beneath the shower and could feel her heart racing controllably.
As the translucent water droplets rolled down her silky smooth body, she could not help but pinch herself. Ouch! Damn it, it’s not a dream.
Why is he acting so weird?
Why is he trying to approach me when he doesn’t like me at all?
Does he have any ulterior motives?
She still could not figure out what was on his mind even after she had stepped out of the bathroom.
Feeling a little awkward, Nicole sat on the other side of the bed. She was dumbfounded when she saw Evan was already lying on the bed in his pajamas.
This man even brought his own pajamas? Clearly, he’s well-prepared for this sleepover!
Nicole lay down on the bed, feeling utterly anxious and uneasy.
The moment Nicole turned off the lamp, the gentle moonlight slipped into the room. It was quite a dreamy sight to behold.
It was surreal.
Evan, who was resting by her side, looked at her in silence.
“Don’t worry. I’ll not do anything to you. I swear.”
Nicole did not know if she could trust him, “Mr. Seet, why do you want to share a bed with me?”
The corner of Evan’s mouth quirked up, “You’re Kyle’s and Juan’s mother, and I hope we can improve our relationship so as to give them a complete family.”
Nicole did not expect this answer from him.
What does he mean? Does this mean he wants to live with me?
He only wants to do it for Kyle and Juan, not because he loves me!
“I’ve never thought about this before.”
“You can start thinking about it now,” Evan responded in a serious voice.
Nicole turned around and looked at him. If I agree with his thought, does this mean we’ll have to be physically intimate with each other?
Did he plan all this to satisfy his desire? Is this his hidden agenda?
He better not have this kind of evil thought!
Gosh, I feel so unsafe now.
Nope, he’ll not get what he wants!
“I’m sorry, Mr. Seet. We should remain our relationship as it is now. Please forget about your idea.”
“If you really want someone to keep you company through the night, I’m sure you’re just one call away from all the socialites who wish to spend a night with you. Perhaps you should turn your attention to them instead of wasting your time here.”
Why is she always trying to push me away?
