Xavier clenched his teeth, holding back his anger as he turned to leave.
In the middle of the night, Lia woke up from a nightmare. She got out of bed and went to check on Leonard, who
was sound asleep. In her dream, that bullet had hit him in the head, and it had been a bloody mess. She
carefully felt around his head, relief washing over her when she realized it was just a dream.
Suddenly, Leonard weakly spoke up, "Do you... have a habit of sleepwalking while you're sleeping? You're
touchingquite anxiously..."
Lia sat up straight. "No... I... | just had a nightmare."
Leonard got up and turned on the lights, brightening the entire room and banishing her fears. His hair was
slightly messy, and he looked adorably sleepy-like a cute puppy.

Lia momentarily lost her train of thought, biting her lip with a mischievous smile on her face.
Leonard felt uneasy under her gaze and instinctively pulled the blanket up to his neck. "What's with that look?
It's kind of scary."
Lia reached over and ruffled his hair, messing it up. "I didn't know you could be so cute! You look like an adorable
little puppy!"
Leonard was taken aback. He wasn't fond of being called a puppy. To correct her impression, he swiftly pinned
her down by the edge of the bed. "Who's cute? Who's a little puppy? Don't you think it's dangerous to crawl into
my bed at night?" Leonard had pinned her hands behind her back, and Lia found herself kneeling and pressed
against the bed. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free. She pouted, refusing to back down. "Let
go! That was a sneak attack!"
Leonard was pleased by the way she was squirming like a little bug. His gaze fell on her fair neck, and he
unconsciously swallowed hard, feeling his heart race.
As Leonard's grip loosened slightly while he was lost in thought, Lia suddenly arched her body and used her only
agile weapon-her bottom-to push back hard! Leonard was caught off guard and hit in a sensitive spot. He turned
pale instantly!
Lia managed to break free and gleefully taunted him, "Is that all you've got? What did | bump into just now? It
was hard and uncomfortable!"
Leonard silently lay back down,
feeling defeated. The only thing left hard about him was his bones. "It's
nothing I'm tired. You should sleep too. Let's leave the lights on so that you don't have another nightmare."
The next day, Pierre announced they would return to Joville early as Daniel had ordered it. Hence, their seven-
day vacation was cut short and ended on the third day.
Once back in Joville, Dominic

dropped Bella off at her house. She naturally invited him up for a bit. Since he managed to resist her.
he could certainly staye
when they shared a room while out,
and not act irrationally now.
As she entered, Bella noticed he didn't plan to follow her inside. Curiously, she asked, "What's wrong?" Dominic
smiled and replied, "lI won't go in, but... can | have a goodbye kiss?"
Bella was about to scold him for being ridiculous when he stepped forward and pulled her into his arms. Caught
off guard, she found herself retreating as he closed the door.
Bella stopped him from advancing further, tilting her head to avoid his gaze. "Alright... If you're not going to stay
for a bit, then you should head back. Budding hasn't seen youn a couple of days and must be unhappy."
