Chapter 100 

We did not speak throughout the journey and I was quite sleepy upon arriving at the villa.

Ashton carried me out of the car, and we headed straight into the bedroom. He laid me on the bed and said, “Don’t fall asleep yet. Go and wash up first.”

I was slightly groggy and couldn’t help but laze on the bed. I pulled the blanket over and was planning to fall asleep then and there.

Ashton saw through what I was trying to do and he carried me from underneath the blanket. We went into the bathroom and he said softly, “Wash up first. Or else, you will suffer tomorrow.”

I agreed and hung myself onto him groggily. As I was stretching my hand to grab the toothpaste, suddenly he took it away.

He applied the toothpaste onto my toothbrush then passed me a glass of water. “Brush your teeth properly.” He sounded as if he was teaching a child.

With the toothbrush in my mouth, I murmured, “I’m not a child.”

He laughed and said, “There’s no difference.”

After I forced myself to wash up, I seemed to be slightly more awake. I lay on the bed with Ashton next to me. He hugged me in his arms with his chin resting on my neck. “Let’s have a good sleep tonight.”

I raised one of my eyebrows. “Are you saying that to yourself?”

He starred at me and smiled. “I’m saying that to you. It’s normal for it to have a reaction when it sees its owner.”
