Chapter 216 I Won't Ever Do It Again

Deep in the night, Theodore raised his head to look at the figure on the sofa. He didn't know when she had fallen asleep. Her head was tilted to one side and it was clear that she was in a very uncomfortable sleeping position, but she seemed to be sleeping very soundly.

He gazed at her for a long time before he closed the book and put it on the bed frame. Then, he lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

He picked up the person on the sofa and he was very gentle with her, for fear of waking her up.

"Hm?" A soft mumble could be heard.

Theodore's movements paused for a moment. He thought she had woken up, but she merely snorted and turned over in his embrace before she stopped moving once more.

After putting her on the bed and tucking her in, Theodore sat down on the sofa where she had just sat. There was still the warmth of her body on the sofa. To him, this kind of temperature was even more comfortable than the blankets. It made him feel as if he didn't want to move.

The book on the bed frame was an old one, worn from many years of reading.

Judging from Everleigh's reaction just now, he also knew that she had no impression of this book at all. As a medical student, she would never remember what she said in the French class that she chose as an elective in university. After all, the courses that she took in the foreign language department were just for him. They were not things she really liked.

However, Theodore remembered very clearly that in French class that semester, the professor had been teaching this book the entire time and had asked Everleigh to answer a question. Her unexpected comments had caused the entire class to burst into laughter.

Later, in order to help her out, he raised his hand to answer the professor's question.

At that time, the professor asked him, "If your Anna told you that she met her true love and wanted to leave with that man, what choice would you make?"

"I will let her go, and then she'll realise that no one else will ever be able to make her happy like me."

...

It was a pity that Everleigh's French was bad. She'd skipped a semester's worth of classes, and she couldn't understand a word of what he said at that time.

The next day when Everleigh woke up, it was already dawn.
