Chapter 51: Sleep Together

"Boss, what should I do to this fool?" Gavin continued his words. His eyes are looking toward his boss. Gavin could tell how angry his boss was right now.

Evan stood from his seat and walked to the window, looking at the street outside, his firm back facing the poor assistance. He could already guess it. This damn fool always wanted to know what he was doing. This person is increasingly testing his patience. But, this is not the right time to make a move to eliminate the poor fool. He needs the right time to move.

Lucky that this nasty fool didn’t know about Rose yet. If that stupid fool had known, something terrible might befall Rose. But if the damn fool did it... then he would not hesitate to counter with all his might. He will get rid of anyone who hurt Rose.

"For a while... do nothing. Let’s see what that fool will do next."

"Yes, Boss!"

"And, I will stay here. You can go back now. Tomorrow morning I will go to the Capital to meet you know who..." Then, as Evan still stood in his place, Gavin silently left the room.

Rose, who had finished seeing her mother enter the living room. He saw Evan standing looking outside the building. She could clearly hear him taking deep breaths as she watched him like he tried to free his restlessness. Something must be bothering him.

"Has Gavin left?"

Evan calmly turns to see his girl. "Hmm... He is needed somewhere else." He smiled at her and then asked her to sit on the sofa beside him.

"Auntie still sleeping?" He took her hand and squeezed it gently. Rose looked at Evan’s face. She can see how exhausted he is now.

"Yes, Mother is still asleep. I hope she sleeps well. Evan, you should go home. It’s almost midnight now. You need to take a rest too." She was worried that Evan would get sick from exhaustion.

Lately, he was always with her until late at night. What’s more, since this morning, he has been on standby in hospital with her. She never sees him take a rest, even just a moment. This man never leaves her. He always stands beside her and does anything to arrange her mother’s surgery.

Rose felt so lucky now. When she and her mother were going through all this, Evan was always there for them. If she had to face it alone, things wouldn’t necessarily go this smoothly. Maybe they are still waiting for the surgery schedule.

"I will sleep here."

"Huh!" Rose was surprised to hear that. Because in this VIP room, there is only 1 bed for the family who waits for the patient.

He didn’t think he would sleep with her, did he? At once, she felt her heartbeat begin to beat faster.

"What are you thinking, Rose? Why do you look so surprised like that, and why are you blushing?" Evan chuckled. He can guess what she is thinking now. "Do you want us to sleep together?"

"WHAT? NO! How could we do that while my mother sleeps next door?"

How could Evan read her mind? Rose tried to calm her mind so that her expression did not betray her and showed this intelligent man what she was thinking now.

"Oh... so if your mother isn’t around, you don’t mind sleeping with me?" Evan drew closer, his face to her, and stopped a few inches. He saw her eyelashes flutter and her lips tightly shut. She looked so pretty with her blushing face.

Evan continued his words, "My pretty girl, I also wanted to sleep with you... but not tonight. You look exhausted." A gentle smile appeared on his face making Rose almost choke.

How could this man conclude like that?

She tried to scold him, but now the man pulled away and sat straight, looking ahead. Make her feel a little bit relieved. Evan will not kiss her. She was afraid her mother would see them if this man kissed her like he always does.

She observed Evan. From her point of view, she can see something bothering him.

"Is there something you want to talk about, Evan?"

Evan looks at her while shaking his head.

"Nothing! Tonight I will sleep on this sofa. Because tomorrow morning, I have to go to the Capital. I have urgent business to attend to...." He took a deep sigh. He was reluctant to return to the Capital because he wanted to accompany Rose until her mother came home. But he had no other choice. He had to solve this problem, worried that the man would make trouble for her.

"Evan, something happened with your company or your family?" Now Rose is getting worried.

"Company!" He lied. He couldn’t possibly tell Rose about his conflict. Not now. Maybe one day he will tell her everything.

"Alright, you can sleep here. But, can you sleep comfortably?" Rose feels sorry because he has to sleep on this narrow sofa.

"It would be fine, Rose. Don’t mind me...." Evan placed his hand on her waist and pulled her to sit on his lap. Rose was shocked.

"Evan! Mother will see us...." Her heart was beating faster as she sat on his lap. And her head was so close to him. She can feel his heartbeat and his warm breath brush her face.

For a moment, they stared at each other in silence. It made Rose’s heartbeat even faster like her precious heart was preparing to leave her currently fragile body.

Evan whispers to her, "Aunty will not wake up until morning, Rose. Don’t worry, I just need to hug you...." Then he buried his head on her neck and closed his eyes.

These few days, his mind was occupied with a lot of things. And the one that pissed him off the most was dealings with Dustin. Now, he needs his lover’s hug to make him calmer and sane before his fight tomorrow in the Capital.

Rose’s mind was in a mess now because Evan tightly hugged her. She was afraid to move in his arms. She stays still until she can feel Evan letting go of his hug. But, this man never made her heart rest. When their eyes meet, she is instantly drawn again into his ocean-blue eyes but only for a second. She immediately regained her senses and stood up.

"Goodnight, Evan..."

"Night Roses!" He stood and led her into her bedroom. He kissed her lips gently before she closed the door.

The moment the door closed, his smile faded as he took his cellphone and typed something. Then, he turned off the light. Still using his long coat, he lay his body on the sofa and shut his eyes.
