Chapter 545
Serena was speechless.
He was really committed to this role.
She now seriously suspected p>
This man had let Black Jack kidnap him on purpose!
She wasn’t ignorant of his skills.
If he hadn’t been cooperating p>
How could Black Jack have succeeded so easily?
The man held her and placed her on the bed.
They were so close that Serena could smell the crisp, pine-like scent on him.
Warmth spread between them, and their breaths seemed to mingle.
Fortunately, Nicholas didn’t press his luck. After placing her on the bed, he withdrew his hands.
Serena, now half-lying on the bed, tensed her face. “Alright, you can go now p>
Nicholas looked at the slight blush on the girl’s ears, and the smile in his eyes deepened. “You use me and then toss me aside every time. Does your mother know you’re such a player, Serena p>
Serena was speechless.
Player my foot!
Nicholas suddenly leaned closer, bracing his hands on the bed on either side of her.
His open collar was directly in Serena’s line of sight.
It was a tempting sight.
“I’ll be good, Serena p>
He lifted his lips into a dazzlingly sweet and obedient smile, his deep-set eyes sparkling with starlight.
It gave him the air of a big, harmless, loyal puppy.
He even took her hand and pressed it against his own cheek. “I’m very huggable, too. A human pillow. Are you sure you don’t want one p>
What huggable, what human pillow!
What kind of nonsense was he spouting!
Serena wanted to slap his devilishly handsome face and beat the dirty thoughts right out of his head.
She took a deep breath and pointed to the sofa in the corner. “You. Go sleep over there p>
Nicholas glanced at it, then looked back at her, batting his long eyelashes as he spoke with a pitiful expression. “Serena, you wouldn’t have the heart to make me curl up over there, would you p>
Serena glanced at the man’s tall, elegant frame.
Then she looked at the short sofa in the corner. It was probably shorter than the damn flirt’s legs.
It really would be difficult for him.
Especially when paired with Nicholas’s pitiful face.
It made it seem as if p>
She were bullying him terribly.
Serena was truly tired and couldn’t be bothered to deal with him anymore so she chose t
She yanked the blanket over herself, turned her back to him, and closed her eyes to sleep.
She hadn’t said a word.
But she had clearly left a space for him beside her.
Nicholas looked at the girl’s tense back, and the tender, warm smile in his eyes deepened.
It was true p>
You had to fight for what you wanted.
And now, hadn’t he taken another step forward?
He turned off the light and climbed into bed.
Serena felt the space beside her dip.
In the darkness, the sound of their breathing was clear.
Serena had thought that having someone else in her bed would make her uncomfortable.
That even though she was exhausted, she wouldn’t be able to sleep.
But the reality was p>
She fell asleep in no time.
Nicholas listened to the girl’s et
steady breaths and turned his head slightly to look at her back
To be honest p>
Staying here, sharing a bed with her, was a form of torture for him.
He was a normal man, in his prime.
And lying next to him was the girl he had been dreaming of for so long.
How could he possibly remain a perfect gentleman?
But p>
The little girl was so completely unguarded around him.
It made it impossible for him to even think about acting like a beast; he
just couldn’t bring himself to do.
