Chapter 100

I was about to say something when he whispered again, "I can't help it, I can't help wanting to be close to you, to treat you well, and that includes... flirting with you."

Indeed, if love could be controlled, it wouldn't ensnare everyone from mortals to the divine.

I was at a loss for words, but Ernest just let go of me. "Go back to your room, drink some water, and if you need anything, just call me."

After he said that, he let go of my hand and pointed to my purse. "Give me your key card, I'll open the door for you."

"No need," I snapped back to reality, pulling away from him. "I can do it myself."

I hurriedly fished out my key card, swiped it to open the door, and then leaned against it, unable to compose myself for a long time.

When Deborah came back, I was already lying in bed. She was tiptoeing, probably to avoid waking me up.

I didn't open my eyes because I didn't want to talk, but I heard Deborah mutter softly, "Sleeping just fine, my coming here was pointless." Hearing that, I twitched my fingers under the blanket, realizing Deborah must have been sent by Ernest to check on me.
