The lovemaking voice spread to Eleanor’s room. It seemed that two people were rubbing against the wall.
However, the soundproofing of this building was not that good.
Eleanor felt that she could see the two of them were having sex just listening to the sound.
The sound of their bodies hitting the wall could be heard clearly. Zoey’s light panting was amplified in the quiet room.
Eleanor bit her bloodless lips. Her face was very pale. Her entire body was like a falling leaf, trembling.
Calculating the time, Zoey should be pregnant with a baby soon.
Because of premature birth, Zoey and Eleanor delivered on the same day.
But in this life, her Ellie could never come back. But Zoey…
At the thought that she might see Zoey’s baby in the future, she felt her lower abdomen begin to ache.
She ignored the pain in her arm and pulled the blanket over to cover herself.
A moment later, there was silence from next door.
Eleanor stuck her head out and breathed weakly. She thought, Wasn’t it too fast?
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Eleanor was shocked and immediately walked to the door.
“Miss Brown, it’s me, Avery.”
“What is it?” Eleanor asked while enduring the pain.
“Elijah wants you to come over,” Avery replied.
What does he want? Let me look at him and Zoey’s lovemaking? Eleanor thought.
Eleanor was furious and blurted out, “I’m already resting. Let Elijah mind his own business and drink more nutritious soup.”
With that, she lay back on the bed.
Outside the door, Avery was rejected and felt confused. He could only turn around and go to the study room that Siena had temporarily arranged for Elijah.
He said, “Elijah, Miss Brown said she would sleep.”
“Do you believe her?”
Elijah sat on a wooden chair by the window. He crossed his long legs and rested his chin on one hand while flipping through the contract.

“She… She might be really tired, but she still cares about you,” Avery replied.
“Really?”

Elijah thought, How strange. Did she care about me? The only man she cares about is Jaxen. She bore a grudge against me when I asked him to be on a business trip.
Avery went forward and reported truthfully, “She instructed you to drink more nutritious soup. Isn’t that because she’s cared about you?“.
Elijah looked up with a playful gaze and said, “Nutritious soup…”
The servants brought dinner into the room.
Eleanor did not want Zoey and Julian to know that she was injured, so she pretended that she had a cold and coughed. She asked the servant to send some anti–inflammatory medicine.
But without the burn ointment, the wound still hurt.
It was so painful that she had no appetite at all. She ate a little and sat by the window to admire the mountain scenery.
The mountain mist was hazy. It was very beautiful like painting, making her feel relaxed and happy.
Fortunately, after a short lovemaking, there was no more movement next door. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to admire this scenery happily.
Eleanor was engrossed when the light in the room went dark.
She was stunned for a moment. Her body was stiff. She was at a loss and did not know what to do.
Before she could feel fear for the sudden darkness, the scream of Zoey next door really shocked her.
“Elijah! Elijah! I’m so scared!”
This scream made Eleanor come back to her senses.
The darkness in the mountains was different from that in the city.
This place was really completely dark. Nothing could be seen at night.
Eleanor stood up like a blind woman. She reached out to touch her surroundings and moved to the door slowly.
When she opened the door, Haven and Julian were already standing in the corridor in fear. They were very shocked.
Haven touched the wall and asked, “Eleanor? You scared me to death.”
“What’s going on?” Eleanor walked out of the room and asked Haven.
“I don’t know. It suddenly went black.” Haven sounded a little anxious.

As soon as she finished speaking. Zoey’s sweet voice came from behind.
“Elijah, Elijah… I’m afraid of the dark…”

Although the corridor was dark, Eleanor could still feel the two figures leaning against each other.
She listened to the sound and felt that they were getting closer to her, so she consciously leaned against the wall and made way.
The next second, Elijah’s breath brushed past. It was cold and dangerous.
She even felt that he was staring at her in the dark.
At this moment, the butler appeared.
He said, “I’m sorry. The rain on the mountain was heavy and there were some landslides, so there was a power outage. They informed us that they would come to rush repairs when the rain lessened. For safety reasons, don’t leave the house. The servants will send some candles over for you later.”
