Chapter 688

Quinn probably did not expect Theo to pour out his feelings to her. She opened her mouth but did not know what to say.

She knew I was listening upstairs. She looked up and let out a self-deprecating smile at me.

I turned around and went back to my room. I lay on the bed, unable to calm myself down for a very long time.

This whole time I thought that Theo did not love me at all, but this was not the case.

He loved me.

I was sure of it this time.

When Theo came in, I was staring at the ceiling daydreaming. My mind was a mess.

Perhaps it was because I did not know how to face him that I subconsciously closed my eyes.

He could tell from my breathing if I was actually asleep. He stood beside my bed and looked at me while smiling helplessly. "You can't sleep?"

I opened my eyes. "Maybe it's been too long since I've been back here. I'm not used to it yet."

The implication of those words was that I felt

unfamiliar with this place.

Theo smiled slightly and climbed into bed, stroking m y cheeks softly. "I'll keep you company, then. I'm sure you don't find me unfamiliar."

There was a glow in his eyes, and it was soul-stirring t o look at.

I did not want to say anything else and closed my eyes.

It was now September and the air-conditioner needed to be switched on at night. At midnight, I felt cold and after moving around, I found that Theo's body was the warmest, so I nestled in his arms.

"The air-conditioner is probably broken." Theo's voice was soft and melodious, a pleasure to listen to. "Why don't you sleep first? I'll ask someone to fix it."

I held him tightly. "Don’t go."

Theo froze.
