Chapter 115: Chapter 114: Engagement Banquet

a.m.

Elliana Lyle woke up abruptly, shivering slightly.

"Did you have a nightmare?"

The man’s gentle voice came from above her head. She was still in his warm embrace, feeling much more at ease instantly.

What startled her was not anything else, but that in the dream she went to attend Sister Phoebe’s engagement party, and on her neck...

Thinking of what Norman Bennett did to her last night made her a bit angry, and suddenly she was wide awake!

Maybe because she hadn’t spent quality time with Norman lately, she indulged the man exceptionally last night, even responding to him...

If she hadn’t stopped in time, things might have gone out of control.

"Norman Bennett, it’s all your fault!"

Elliana huffed and sat up, turned on the light, and checked the time on the wall clock before quickly getting out of bed.

The man looked at her in bafflement, then sat up half-awake, and when he saw the little girl already sitting at the dressing table applying concealer to her neck, he instantly understood.

"There’s still time, early enough."

Hearing the teasing tone in his voice, her face flushed with anger, "How could you still have the nerve to say that, it’s all because of you!"

"Yes, it’s me."

The man said, getting up, apparently planning to get out of bed.

Soon, the man was already dressed, while she had only covered a small part. Casually, she asked, "Are you leaving this early?"

The man came over and held her in his arms, watching the little girl busily touching up in the mirror, his tone indulgent: "Yes, finish early today, get the certificate tomorrow."

Elliana turned back to look at the handsome face of the man and impulsively asked, "You want to get the certificate so you can start work?"

"Yes."

"..." Elliana didn’t know what to say for a moment, but anyway, what’s to come will come, and she has psychologically prepared herself.

"I’m not talking to you anymore." Elliana continued applying concealer in front of the mirror.

Seeing the striking marks on her white collarbone, the man’s voice was tender: "I’ll be gentler next time."
