Chapter 283

Felicia rubbed her nose, put the knife back into her pocket, and then turned on the lights.

The room lit up brightly, and Stephan squinted slightly, adjusting to the sudden brightness. His voice was hoarse, deep, and seductive in the quiet night. "Why are you back so late?" She felt an inexplicable warmth spread across her face.

His tone sounded like a husband waiting for his wife to return home-longing and yearning until she finally returned, only to ask her one heartfelt question. She didn't think the relationship between her and Stephan was that intimate.

At most, they had shared a few nights.

Ahem... Felicia interrupted her thoughts and shook the grocery bag in her hand. "I just went to the supermarket to buy some vegetables before they closed." Stephan raised an eyebrow slightly, his expression subtly questioning. "Is that all you're eating?"

She nodded. She lived alone, so it didn't matter what she cooked as long as it was enough to fill her stomach.

She took the items from the bag one by one, and when she noticed he hadn't left, she asked, "Aren't you going back?"

"Back where?"

"To your own place."

Felicia was referring to Seldvale.

She had no family to return to, but Stephan should be returning to celebrate the New Year with his family, right?

Before she could finish speaking, his phone buzzed several times. He glanced at it and casually typed a few words before putting the phone away.
