Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

The following day, Aurelia woke up groggily with a blank mind and a splitting headache.

When her thoughts came back to her, she recalled what happened last night briefly. She was moody after leaving Cordelia’s place and wanted to get drunk but could not due to her non-existent ID.

She then ran into her old neighbor. The kind nomad had given her his beer, and she drank, sitting by the road.

Then… Then how did she get back to the hotel?

From what she could remember, she seemed to have scanned her keycard, but…

Aurelia’s eyes flew open abruptly.

The room’s design was different from hers! The faint fragrance on the pillow was the smell of Neil’s aftershave! And she—she was lying in Neil’s bad!?

“Ah!” Aurelia screamed in hysterics.

She was doomed, she was done for! She slept with him in her dream yesterday and thought that she could do anything she wanted in her dream, even rated things… so she let it all go and said whatever she should and should not have!

Who would have known that it was not a dream!?

Aurelia scratched her head in regret.

She peeked to her left and right like she was a thief. Neil did not seem to be in the room. She should take the opportunity to flee…

Biting her lips, Aurelia was going to get out of bed when the door opened.

Neil came in, dressed in pajamas and slippers, holding a glass of honey lemon water.

Aurelia gaped at him with widened eyes, unable to utter a single word.

Neil had wanted to sober her up and talk to her about last night seriously, but he was amused looking at her and suddenly felt like teasing her.

With a smirk, he placed the glass of water on the bedside table and sat on the bed, crossing his legs.

“You’re awake?”

Aurelia looked down timidly, and her nod was as good as none.

“Drink it. It’ll sober you up.”
