His footsteps ca to a halt, but he couldn’t help frowning slightly.
Monts later, he started moving again, though his steps were much quieter.
As he reached the sofa, Noah Drexler stopped and looked down at the woman sleeping on the couch. A softened expression appeared on Liam Coldwell’s usually stern face.
The next second, he raised his hand, removed his suit jacket, and tossed it onto the sofa. After unbuttoning one of his shirt buttons casually, he bent down, lifting her from the sofa with his arms, and turned towards the bed.
Just as he placed her on the bed, Sumr Shawcross was startled awake.
Seeing her awaken, he didn’t bother to straighten up, simply leaning over to look at her. Upon seeing her still-drowsy appearance, a trace of tenderness flashed across his stern face.
She opened her eyes groggily, seeing Noah Drexler’s handso face... For a mont, she was taken aback, then spoke with a hint of delight...
But after glancing at the clock, her heart tightened.
"Did you just get back?"
Had he worked overti until midnight again?
"Mm." Noah Drexler replied with a slight nod.
Upon hearing this, Sumr Shawcross fell silent, feeling a bit helpless inside.
Ever since canceling the Rovena project, Noah Drexler had been busy with new projects, working overti until midnight, and leaving again before dawn, leaving her little ti to chat with him.
"I made dumplings with the housekeeper today. Wait a mont, I’ll cook so for you." She rembered sothing and attempted to get up from the bed, but the man wrapped his arm around her waist and pressed her back down onto the bed.
"Don’t move, let hold you for a while."
He’s been so busy these days, he barely had ti to hold her properly.
Sumr was stunned but then settled down, allowing him to hold her.
After a while, Noah Drexler raised his head, looking down at her face, and spoke softly.
"You don’t have to wait for to co back."
Over the past few days, he had been working overti until midnight, and upon returning, he always saw her fighting off sleep, which made him feel tenderhearted.
After he finished speaking, Sumr Shawcross paused, then pursed her lips and said.
"Who said I was waiting for you? I was watching TV dramas."
After saying that, she felt a bit guilty, so she added another sentence.
"The good dramas recently all air until midnight."
After she said this, Noah Drexler raised an eyebrow, watching TV dramas? He didn’t rember her having such a hobby before.
"Oh? What drama are you watching?" The man quirked an eyebrow, his handso face filled with indulgence as he looked at her with interest.
Being asked this, Sumr Shawcross was taken aback, then smartly ca up with an excuse.
"You don’t watch TV dramas, even if I tell you, you wouldn’t know."
