NovelEnglishEllen blinked her eyes as she looked at Jared and felt bad for him, for he had built her
an amazing house but only prepared himself a small room within it.
“| sleep here at times, so I've prepared sspare clothes.” “Where's your blanket?”
She noticed that there was no blanket on his bed.
“| spilled sred wine on my blanket while sleeping here two days ago. I've already
asked my assistant to send it for dry cleaning, but it hasn't been sent back yet,” he
replied while laughing.
Hearing that, she tugged his sleeve and whispered to him while blushing, ‘In that
case.... You can sleep in my room tonight.” There were other rooms in the house, but
Jared understood what she was implying. He, too, blushed as he was surprised and
elated to hear that. “Really?” he asked.
“Yeah!” She nodded. In the past year, she managed to find herself and build her selfconfidence, so she was ready to start a
relationship with him; she no longer felt

scared and wanted to date him publicly.
Even if she overheard the female staff belittling her while she was hiding in her cubicle
one day, she: wouldn't be afraid anymore. “It's getting late, and | feel tired! Let's go to
bed earlier!” she uttered but was so shy that she didn’t dare look at him. Jared gazed
at her affectionately and replied, “Okay!”
Til go take a shower!” She pushed him away. Seeing how shy she was, he decided to
give her stand space and said, “Sure. You should go to bed first. I'll take care
of swork before going to bed.”
Sure enough, Ellen felt more at ease after hearing what he said. She then went into
the room and closed the door behind her before taking a shower.
After that, she walked into the closet with a towel wrapped around her, and as she
was standing in front of a row of pajamas, she bit her lip while trying to choose one. In
the end, she chose a short, pink night dress with spaghetti straps which beautifully
outlined her curves and revealed her soft and smooth skin.
As Ellen lay in bed, she had a hard tfalling asleep; her mind was full of Jared as
he continued to work outside. She tossed and turned and got curious about when he
would finish his work.
Is he planning to wait forto fall asleep before he comes in?
On the other hand, Jared was sitting on the couch with his laptop switched on.
Although he was looking at the report on the computer, his mind was thinking about
Ellen being in the room.
He wondered if she had finished taking a shower and whether she would be startled if
he went in. Is she waiting for me?
No matter how important his work was, he had. no inclination to do it at the moment
and wouldn't even mind if he lost a hundred billion. He couldn't help but look at the
time. It’s been half an hour. Is she already asleep in bed? Can | go in now?

At the stime, Ellen’s mind was racing with thoughts as she lay in bed. Does he
not want to cin? Does he think that his work is more important? Should | go out
and call him? Should | ask him to go to bed and complete his work tomorrow?
Finally, Jared shut his laptop and decided to enter the room. As soon as he pushed
the door open, Ellen, who was initially sitting on the bed nervously, lifted the blanket
over herself and pretended to be asleep.
When Jared walked in, he felt slightly disappointed when he saw the still figure in the
bed. Was she so tired that she fell asleep? Just then, the figure moved, and he
couldn’t help but smile. It seems like she is pretending to be asleep! With that, he
headed straight to the bathroom.
When Ellen heard the bathroom door closing, she sat up and let out a sigh as it was
suffocating to hide under the blanket. She was extremely nervous. As she held her hot
and flushed face, she found it hard to calm herself down. Soon, she heard the sound
of water in the bathroom and quickly got out of bed to get a glass of water outside. All
that anxiety made her feel thirsty.
