Looking at Noah Drexler’s somber face, Sumr Shawcross paused for a mont before proceeding to explain.
"It’s just a few days. I want so peace and quiet... and then to arrange a simple funeral for my brother."
Her mind was too chaotic now, and she needed so ti alone to calm down.
Moreover, as his sister, she had to arrange her brother’s funeral properly.
Her words made the expression on Noah Drexler’s face grow even more displeased.
She wanted to sleep in separate rooms with him just because of this?
After a mont, he pressed his lips together and then spoke.
"I’ll have soone arrange the funeral." He paused for a mont, "As for sleeping separately, that’s not up for discussion!"
"Noah Drexler..." Hearing this, Sumr sighed, her expression sowhat helpless. In the end, she just closed her mouth and didn’t continue.
Her sudden quietness, not arguing with him anymore, still caused Noah Drexler to frown.
Although she didn’t say anything more, nor insisted on sleeping separately, her expression, full of heavy thoughts, still made him feel very uncomfortable inside!
If she was dissatisfied with his decisions before, she would always argue her case, but now... it seed as if she didn’t even have the strength to argue anymore.
He didn’t like this reluctant acceptance from her.
Thinking about it, his face showed an expression of regret!
What kind of spell had she cast on him!
In the next second, he pursed his thin lips again and said.
"Three days at most!"
He would give her three days at most to calm down!
Seeing him agree, Sumr was taken aback for a mont, looking up at him, and then gently nodded her head.
Noah Drexler, holding her, went to the bathtub and sat her on its edge. He then adjusted the water temperature, starting to fill the bathtub.
Once everything was ready, he looked down at her sitting next to the bathtub and suddenly asked.
"Can you manage by yourself?" His handso, cold face was full of concern for her.
His words made Sumr pause and then she nodded.
She wasn’t a child after all; even with a sprained foot, she should be able to bathe herself.
Seeing her nod, Noah Drexler still appeared skeptical.
The doctor had said she was disturbed by the scene of Sean Shawcross getting injured, which caused her to hallucinate that the food tasted bitter.
Perhaps the sprain she got downstairs earlier was due to that sa reason.
So he wasn’t comfortable leaving her alone in the bathroom like this.
"Should I help you bathe?" The man frowned, looking at her intently for a long ti before suddenly offering.
Hearing his words, Sumr just paused for a mont without showing much reaction.
It seed like this wasn’t a big deal for her anymore.
Seeing her not refuse, Noah Drexler raised his hand seriously, starting to unzip her dress.
The zipper was slowly pulled down, and the dress slipped off Sumr’s shoulders, revealing her fair neck and shoulders.
Sumr finally reacted, raising her hand to unhook her bra...
This scene caused the man’s gaze to suddenly intensify, and his body inexplicably tensed up.
Just as Sumr was about to undress and step into the bathtub, the man suddenly turned around.
"I’ll wait for you outside." His low, hoarse voice ca from his throat.
After leaving this sentence, he turned around and strode out of the bathroom!
