Nicole thought Evan volunteered to sleep on the couch.
She cleared her throat, âIâd feel bad if I made you sleep on the couch. This is your house, after all.â
Evan thought about it for a bit and nodded, âYouâre right. We shall not sleep on the couch then.â
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 didnât even give you the greenlight!
Nicole followed behind and walked towards her bedroom as well.
âMr. Seet, I think I should just sleep on the couch. Iâ¦â
âI thought I made it clear? Letâs just sleep on the same bed. Do you have a problem with this?â
Nicole became speechless upon seeing how chill Evan was.
Of course, I have a problem sharing the same bed with a man!
âRelax, I wonât do anything to you. I promise.â
âMr. Seet, Iâ¦â
âShush. Go to bed.â
What?
How can he be so domineering?
Nicole stood still and refused to move. Evan then locked the roomâs 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, itâs not a dream.
Why is he acting so weird?
Why is he trying to approach me when he doesnât 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, heâs 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.
âDonât worry. Iâll not do anything to you. I swear.â
Nicole did not know if she could trust him, âMr. Seet, why do you want to share a bed with me?â
The corner of Evanâs mouth quirked up, âYouâre Kyleâs and Juanâs mother, and I hope we can improve our relationship so as to give them a complete family.â
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!
âIâve never thought about this before.â
âYou can start thinking about it now,â Evan responded in a serious voice.
Nicole turned around and looked at him. If I agree with his thought, does this mean weâll 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, heâll not get what he wants!
âIâm sorry, Mr. Seet. We should remain our relationship as it is now. Please forget about your idea.â
âIf you really want someone to keep you company through the night, Iâm sure youâre 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.â
Why is she always trying to push me away?
