Eugene said playfully, “Did you think I wanted to have sex with you?”

Melanie’s eyelashes fluttered. She took a deep breath and opened her eyes.

“It’s too troublesome.”

Melanie paused slightly, turned over, and closed her eyes.

She was a light sleeper. Any noise would wake her up.

In the middle of the night, Eugene’s phone suddenly rang, piercing the silence in the room.

Melanie woke up with a frown. She opened her eyes and saw Eugene answering the phone. They were on the same bed, so she could hear Viola’s cry over the phone. “Eugene, where are you? Can you come to the Paramount Hospital? My father was in a car accident. He’s being treated there now. I’m so scared.”
