“Jocelyn was making a fuss over nothing.

Her face twisted pitifully as she spoke.

It was as if she was reminding Mitchel how special she was to him.

“Not a big deal.

” With no expression on his face, Mitchel asked lightly, “You hungry? I can ask Matteo to get you whatever you’d like to eat.

“No, thanks.

” Lauren asked in a soft voice, “Where were you before?

Did I interrupt something?”

“Not at all,” Mitchel replied calmly.

He took a look at his watch and said, “It’s late now.

Go to sleep.

“I’m so scared, Mitchel.

Lauren suddenly wrapped her hands around Mitchel’s waist from behind and sobbed with grievance.

She buried her face into his back.

“Stay with me, please.

Just for tonight, okay?”

Instinctively, Mitchel pulled back the moment Lauren wrapped her arms around his waist.

Lauren’s arms were left hanging.

She looked surprised, to say the least.

The room fell into a dead silence in an instant.

Embarrassed, Lauren withdrew her hands and clenched them into fists.

Her eyes turned red as she asked, “Mitchel, do you hate me now?”

“Of course not.

Mitchel handed her a piece of tissue as a way to comfort her.

“I knew it.

I’m just a burden now.

Lauren burst into tears.

“I shouldn’t have come back.

“Don’t be silly!” Mitchel took a step forward and gave her shoulder a squeeze.

“You are not a burden to me.

No matter what, I’ll always take care of you.

“Mitchel, I know you would never leave me.

” Lauren held his hand tightly as she looked up at him with obsessive eyes.

Mitchel didn’t leave until Lauren fell asleep.

As soon as the door closed, Lauren, who had been pretending, opened her eyes.

She had perceived a strange fragrance on Mitchel’s clothes just now.
