"Then why are you answering my mom's phone? Where is she?"

"She's asleep."

"You slept together?!" Elisa was utterly shocked, 'Didn't mom returned to the country just recently? How did she end up in bed with a man so soon!'

'TV shows always say that when a guy and a girl sleep together, babies come into the picture!'

"You might want to ask your mom about that when she wakes up. She knows best," he suggested.

When Elisa finally saw Alaric's photo, she was indeed awestruck by his striking looks. Then, she turned to Caspian with a mix of surprise and curiosity and back at her own reflection.
