Chapter 334 A Quiet Night, A Warm Goodbye

Finished

As Landon undressed her, Tessa's heart pounded so fast it felt like it was going to burst out of her chest.

But all he did was slip off her coat-then, like a perfect gentleman, he stopped.

Landon gently patted her shoulder, like he was soothing a child to sleep.

Tessa didn't say anything more. She simply lay still, eyes closed, telling herself it was just rest.

At first, she was sure she wouldn't be able to sleep.
