Chapter 2424
Dulcie lowered her gaze and went to bed quietly.
Kyson continued to read for another half hour, and then removed his gold-rimmed glasses and switched the room light to a dimmer setting.
He made sure the subdued Light wouldn’t disturb Dulcie’s sleep before he headed to the bathroom for a shower.
However, despite her closed eyes, Dulcie found herself unable to fall asleep.
She was lying on Kyson’s pillow, nestled in the soft bed he had used for many years.
The faint scent of Kyson lingered on the pillow, stirring excitement in Dulcie that made sleep elusive.
Her heart raced as she puzzled over why Kyson had suddenly permitted her to sleep in the bed.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
While she was caught up in her thoughts and speculations, the sound of running water from the bathroom was clear.
Dulcie could almost picture Kyson, his skin glistening with droplets of water…
It was irresistibly charming.
Sleeping in the same room as such an attractive man made it difficult for her not to let her thoughts wander.
Then, the sound of the shower ceased.
A few minutes later, Kyson emerged from the bathroom in a bathrobe, casually drying his damp hair with one hand.
Lying in the bed, Dulcie watched him quietly through half-closed eyes.
She had been Living in this villa for some time and often saw Kyson after his showers, but she had never seen him with his upper body exposed.
He always kept his bathrobe tightly fastened, concealing his abdominal muscles completely.
She wondered if perhaps he had scars or some imperfection he felt the need to hide.
Dulcie found herself intrigued by every detail about him.
As she reflected, Dulcie noticed Kyson entering the dressing room.
Kyson avoided undressing in her presence.
The bed was excessively soft, and the silk bedding provided a skin- friendly and luxurious comfort.
Dulcie swiftly drifted into slumber.
Kyson dried his hair and exited the dressing room, observing Dulcie, who was sleeping fitfully due to the heat, with half her body exposed.
Her slender, fair legs pressed against the quilt beneath her nightdress.
He approached quietly and covered Dulcie with the quilt.
