After a while, Aidan Lucas suddenly stood up from the sofa.
The man quickly left the study room and returned to the bedroom.
On the vast bed in the bedroom, Lily curled up on the side closest to the wall, her petite body tightly wrapped in the blanket.
Aidan Lucas walked slowly to the bed, lifted the blanket on his side, and got in.
Turning off the only lamp that was on in the room, Aidan Lucas pulled up the blanket and lay down.
On the two-meter-wide bed, Aidan Lucas slept on the outer side, and Lily on the inner side. From beginning to end, there was no contact between them.
Lily didn't even know that Aidan Lucas had come back.
And so, she slept all alone through the night.
Until the next morning.
"Achoo—"
Aidan Lucas was awakened by the sneeze of the woman beside him.
He opened his eyes just in time to see Lily half sitting up, attempting to reach for the tissues on the nightstand.
