Stella became sleepier even after sleeping for a long time. After finishing the meal, she yawned lazily, feeling her whole body weak. She sat on the sofa, hugging her knees, and looked out of the windows dully, having no focus for her gaze.

Clarence shifted his gaze away from the computer and landed on Stella. He then asked in a low voice, “Are you sleepy?”

Stella rubbed her sore eyes and replied, “Not that sleepy.”

“Go to bed if want to sleep. I will wake you up when it’s time for dinner.”

Stella was rendered speechless.

She murmured to herself, “How can I go to be right after finishing a meal and eat right after waking up? I’m not a pig.”

Clarence curled his lips into a light smile and put a thin blanket on her legs, “Even if you’re a pig, you’re the cutest and the best-looking one.”

Stella couldn’t help but kick him, “Can you please don’t sweet-talk me? It’s disgusting.”

Clarence raised his hand and grabbed her ankle effortlessly, “Why are you angry at me? I’m complementing you.”

“Thanks. But I don’t need it.”

“You’re welcome. It’s what I should do.”

Stella gritted her teeth angrily. She wanted to withdraw her foot, but Clarence tightened the grip on it.

Looking at her fair calf, Clarence subconsciously raised his brows.

At the next second, he leaned forward, pressed her leg with one leg and pinned each of her hand on one side of the sofa. His eyes turned unfathomable and his voice became husky as he asked, “You don’t want to sleep?”

Perceiving his intention, Stella cursed him, “Bastard.”

Clarence retorted, “You like me even if I’m a bastard.”

“Who likes you? I…”
