Chapter 156: Can I Stay?

Evan was stunned to see Molly asleep in Rose’s arms.

Slowly he picked her up and moved her to the bed. When he placed his mother-in-law on the bed, he was surprised to see her face. She looks so pale, and her eyes are puffy. Even though she was currently fast asleep, Evan could clearly see the traces of tears there.

"What’s wrong, Rose? Why does Aunt Molly look so sad?" Evan was worried about Molly’s condition.

Rose didn’t answer Evan’s question right away. She just followed him out of her mother’s room. After closing the door, she asked Evan to follow her to her bedroom.

It was almost midnight when Rose left her mother’s room. Some parts of her body felt sore, especially her shoulders. And until now, her mind was still noisy, like a storm left inside her. How could she sleep if her mind and heart were not at peace, like now? While she felt her body was exhausted.

"Evan, let’s talk inside...." Rose let Evan enter her bedroom.

"Mom suddenly misses her parents. She cries until she is exhausted and sleeps in my arms. Now my arm hurts so much..." Rose massaged her still sore shoulder.

Rose was confused; Did she need to be honest with Evan or not? There was a fear that Evan would leave her if she told him what her mother had said about her father. Born without marriage. And the sad thing is that her mother doesn’t know who her father is. She believed no man would accept a woman like her, including Evan, who comes from a respected family in this country. Of course, this man will leave her, right!?

Did she have to keep this a secret from Evan? But would keeping it a secret from Evan would be fair to him? All these questions that appear in her mind bother her a lot.

"Let me massage your shoulders!" Evan started gently massaging Rose’s shoulders and arms. "Have you asked your mom to move to the capital?"

Rose shook her head. She had no chance to discuss anything else with her mother.

"Evan, can we stay here one more night? Looks like I need some time to talk to my mom about it....’’ Rose said. She wanted to try to comfort her mother before returning to the Capital.

"Sure, Rose! We can stay here as long as you want. I can work from anywhere...." Evan had asked his COO to take care of the company as usual. He can’t let Rose stay here alone and vows to stay by her side. He could feel, right now, something bothering her mind.

Rose grabs Evan’s hand and stops him from massaging her shoulder. Then she turned and sat facing him. "Evan, thank you, but I only needed one night. I must hurry back to the Capital to prepare my mother’s house so she can move immediately...."

Rose couldn’t bear to let her mother live alone in this house, especially after knowing her mother had never loved another man. She must be very lonely.

She wanted to comfort her mother and help her move on quickly. Her mother deserves to live happily like any other woman her age. Her mother definitely needs a man she can spend her life with.

"Alright! Now, let’s sleep. You look so tired."

"Hmm... I am. I want to straighten my back." Rose stood from the sofa and looked at Evan. "You can go back to your room, Evan. You can use that window...." Rose pointed at the window that looked like a door leading to an outdoor garden near her bedroom which would take him back to the guest room upstairs.

"Rose, I can’t sleep alone anymore since I sleep by your side." Evan’s words could make Rose feel her heart tighten. And when she saw him standing and walking toward her, her heart started to beat faster.

"Can I stay here? Let’s sleep together...." Evan places his hand on her waist as his eyes look sharply at her. For a moment, Evan saw his girl’s eyelashes flatter beautifully. Then, his eyes look slightly below her lips. It makes him swallow hard. "C-Can I?"

"Ooh..." Rose could only agree. How could she refuse that request? She also wanted to sleep with him. Cuddle in his embrace till morning. Just like him, she also can’t stand sleeping alone now. Somehow this man made her feel addicted.

"Alright, now go wash. I will wait for you here..." Evan kissed her cheeks. He sat on the sofa waiting for her girl. He didn’t want to lay down first, afraid he would fall asleep.

After closing the bathroom door behind her, Rose was frozen in her place for a moment. She still couldn’t control her beating heart. Her mind began to be filled with sultry thoughts, making her body heat slightly arise.

In a hurry, she took a cold shower to make her body temperature back to normal. Afterward, she wears her night silky black gown. Once again, she looked at her appearance in the mirror.

"Are you ready, Rose? Tonight may be your night! Nothing is holding you back from doing it anymore...." Rose talks to herself as a sassy smile appears from the corner of her lips, imagining Evan will devour her tonight.

She slapped her cheek gently with both hands to bring her consciousness back. Her mind was utterly insane. How could she have thought that far? Damn it, Rose! She couldn’t help but curse herself a few times.

She was so nervous because she thought Evan would devour her tonight, but it turned out her imagination was empty. Evan didn’t make a move on her. He hugged her tightly, and then that was it. She could clearly hear the sound of his heart beating normally. Embarrassed by what was on her mind, she could only scold herself inwardly.

How could she forget Evan’s promise? This man is steadfast in his stance. He had promised not to touch her until they were married. Damn Rose!

Rose tried to distract herself from the embarrassment by thinking about Nick, her father. Her concern now is; Was hiding her father’s identity the right choice?
