Emily was shy around strangers. She didn't want to sleep with anyone except Stephanie.

Stephanie had no choice but to take her back to Silver Fox's room, and she slept in the middle, with Emily on the left. They added another blanket to cover both of them. Silver Fox still had his own blanket.

Poor Silver Fox... even the ones who squeezed him at night were gone.

But, with one more person in bed, Stephanie was sleeping very close to him in the middle.

A slight move might lead to some physical contact through the blankets...

Stephanie was relieved that Emily could quickly adapt to the new environment and seemed comfortable sleeping beside her.

Did this mean that Emily had entirely accepted her?

She was the second person Emily could fully trust in her heart after her mother!

So, after Emily fell asleep, Stephanie bragged to Sebastian, "Silver Fox, look... Emily depends on me so much!"
