Upon returning to Villa, Mrs. Zane was still awake.
It seed she didn’t expect Fluffy to return so early. "Fluffy, why are you back already?"
"I drank too much and feel a bit dizzy, so I ca back early."
Mrs. Zane stood up. "Are you alright?"
"I’m fine, mother. I’m going to rest upstairs."
Fluffy Zane returned to her bedroom, leaned against the door, and slowly slid down against it. Her arms wrapped around her knees, her head buried deep within them. Her thin shoulders trembled, and faint sobs escaped...
...
「The first night after the surgery.」
Sophie Sullivan thought Thomas Shannon wouldn’t co now that she looked so miserable.
As she lay in bed, half-asleep and half-awake, the man’s tall figure lay down beside her. A powerful arm stretched out and forcefully pulled her into his embrace, carefully avoiding her face.
Sophie weakly raised her hand and pushed at his firm chest, murmuring, "Thomas Shannon..."
"Hmm?" The man’s deep voice sounded by her ear.
At such a close distance, his warm breath spread all over her ear. It was ticklish, with a slight electric tingling.
"Don’t you think I’m ugly?"
Sophie believed that the reason he didn’t co was that she had beco a hideous ss after her surgery.
"Less talking, sleep."
Sophie dozed off, her long, slender legs, resting on his legs. The position was indescribably seductive.
Thomas Shannon took a deep breath and pushed her legs away.
The next second, Sophie’s legs draped back on him again. Unconscious seduction was the deadliest.
Provoked by Sophie, Thomas was filled with heat. He pushed her away and went to the bath chamber to take a cold shower.
Sophie had no idea that Young Master Shannon had taken cold showers ti and ti again in the bath chamber while she slept.
When Thomas Shannon returned from the bath chamber, chilled, he lay down, and Sophie automatically cuddled up to him again. Feeling the cool sensation from his body, Sophie’s delicate body nestled even closer to him.
Thomas Shannon: ...
Was she deliberately tornting him? Taking advantage of being half a patient to tornt him to her heart’s content?
Thomas Shannon took a deep breath, pushed her body away, and finally realized that sleeping in the sa bed with her was a mistake!
Sophie was not having it. Her body clung to him again. This ti, her delicate lotus-like arms tightly hugged him, with no regard for her appearance.
Thomas Shannon closed his eyes and held back. Fine. Let her hug . Just endure it, and it will pass.
After lying on her side for a long ti, Sophie went numb. She changed positions, and Thomas Shannon promptly noticed her turning to the other side. He hastily wrapped his arm around her body, preventing her from pressing on the half of her face that had just been operated on.
Sophie muttered a complaint, kicked a couple of tis, and gave up when she couldn’t kick him away.
All night long, Thomas Shannon was tornted by her and couldn’t sleep well. As for Sophie, who had just had surgery, she had no awareness of protecting her face at all, tossing and turning restlessly.
Thomas Shannon maintained the posture of embracing her body all night long.
「The next day.」
Sophie woke up in Thomas Shannon’s embrace.
Up close, the man’s skin was so delicate that not a single pore could be seen. His sexy thin lips were slightly pursed, and his pair of intimidating cold eyes were still closed.
Right now, Thomas Shannon was as harmless as a sleeping angel. His enviable eyelashes cast a beautiful shadow beneath his eyelids.
