Chapter 407
“Because I looked just like a fluffy little fox!”
“He was such a good boy, always following me.”
As she spoke, she cupped her face, seemingly lost in a blend of longing and reminiscence.
“Do you still remember him?”
The man’s voice, rough with a gritty texture, echoed in her ear. Xanthea nodded, “Of course, but I never really saw his face. He just left, without even saying a goodbye.”
“But I remember his eyes!!
“Like stars in the night sky, twinkling, they are so clear and bright, they could suck you right in.”
“Or, would you get jealous if I say this.”
She suddenly tumed, only to fall into a pair of deep, dark eyes that seemed bottomless, with only the pupils shimmering brightly, just like the stars in the sky
For a moment, they seemed to overlap with the eyes from her memory
“Huh? On, you kinda look like him!”
Xanthea shook her head, feeling like she must have been drunk.
“Xannie.”
Orion’s heart throbbed, gripping her hand tighter
“But you’re definitely not him. He’s long gone,”
The next second, she collapsed into his arms, her breathing even and steady.
Orion looked down, his gaze hiding all the turmoil and affection, and gently kissed her forehead. “Xannile, I never left. I’ve always been by your side.”
“Pretty Sister! Pretty Sister
wakeimi
up! The sun’s out and shining!”
In the moming. Xanthea was roused by a child’s noisy yet innocent voice.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and, upon seeing a small bun holding onto her feet, she was stunned.
Who was she? Where was she? And where did this little bun come from?!
Sebastian, seeing her eyes open, happily climbed onto the bed, “Pretty Sister, you finally woke up, you sleep more than my pet!”
“Uncle said to drink this once you’re awake, and you won’t feel bad anymore.”
He handed her a mug of honey water on the bedside table, Xanthea drank it, feeling refreshed and much better, her memories gradually returning.
She had ignored Orion’s advice last night and ended up blackout drunk again.
But aside from feeling a bit wom out, she didn’t have any other unusual sensations. It seemed that Orion, despite his beastly nature, had retained some humanity and hadn’t taken advantage of her while she was drunk.
“Seb, what pet do you have?”
“Peppal
Xanthea almost spit her water out laughing.
She realized this kid, just like Orion, had a harmless facade but was secretly very sly.
“Where’s your uncle? Is he cooking breakfast?”
“No.” He shook his head, “Uncle left early for the office with Uncle Leonard, he said he left you a voice mi
Xanthe called up the smart home assistant and immediately heard Onion’s volon
Xannie, remember to drink the tee Breakfast’s in the thermos. Let me know about after your meeting.
Tak. He’s such a model husband!!
