Chapter 740 Theo cout of the bathroom and sawlooking at him. He froze. "Did I wake you up?" I shook my head. "I slept early and it's about tI wake up." He merely switched on the bathroom light. The bedroom was dimly lit and I leaned over to turn on the bedside lamp.
When I took a closer look at Theo's face, I blushed.
There was only a bath towel wrapped around his lower body, and his toned upper body was covered in water droplets, which slid down his chest. It made him look particularly seductive.
Theo sawstaring at him the whole tand let out a mischievous smile. "Are you happy with it?" I pursed my lips and looked away.

I felt somewhat speechless and took the towel from his hand, wiping his hair for him. "Are there still reporters outside?" Although the news that Cassey marrying Caleb was worthy of attention, sreporters did not want to give up getting much bigger news from here, hence not all of them left.
He tookinto his arms and madesit on his lap. He had just cout from the shower, so his chest was a little icy and cool.
"They've all left." As he said that, he rested his chin on my shoulder. His voice was slightly weary.
I let him holdand did not move.
"Did you already have dinner?" he asked.
I nodded.
He gently bit my shoulder and it hurt a little. "You liar, the caretaker isn't asleep yet. She toldthat you didn't have dinner and seemed to not be in a very good mood." It was embarrassing to have a lie be exposed.
I cleared my throat and said, "I didn't eat because I wasn't hungry, not because I wasn't in a good mood." My appetite had been very good lately, and if I did not eat, then that would mean I was really not hungry.
He frowned. "Remember to eat all three meals on tto stay healthy." "It's alright to skip dinner," I argued.

I wrapped my arms around his neck speechlessly. " Where are you takingto?" He pursed his lips. "Downstairs, to have something to eat." "I'm really not hungry! I want to sleep!" If I was even a tad hungry, I would have taken it upon myself to find something to eat. I was not a child who needed to wait for him to cback and supervise m e. Seeing that he was still continuing to go downstairs, I could not help but speak again.
"It's late now and it's hard to digest after eating. I might have a stomach ache tomorrow." He frowned and finally stopped. He looked down atand confirmed again. "Are you really not hungry?" I nodded, replying with certainty, "I'm really not hungry."
He hesitated for a few seconds before turning around to putback in bed. I could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was true that eating at night was bad for the stomach.
"What are you doing?" He pressed his hands on either side of my head, e looking ambiguously atwith his dark gaze. It madea little flustered.
I saw his sexy Adam's apple rolling, then he said, "But what should I do? I'm famished."
I pursed my lips and played dumb.
"The caretaker happens to still ben awake. If you're hungry, then go downstairs and ask her to fix you something." He lowered his head. "Isn't this the place where I can satisfy my appetite?" I blinked. "Where?" "Trying to play dumb, huh?" He snickered.
