Fae was stunned for a moment. She just realized that Ren was serious about what he said.
So.. yesterday Ren was able to sleep because he heard her singing? Ahh ...
Deep inside, the girl's heart was touched. She didn't know this man liked her voice so much that he deliberately asked her to sing again. Finally, Fae smiled shyly and nodded.
"Very well, Sir. I will sing to help you sleep."
"Thank you." The man looked so happy that his face had a big smile that made him look even more handsome than before. Fae was mesmerized and subconsciously swallowed hard.
This prince is so perfect, she thought.
Ahh ... somehow her chest felt heavy. Fae was not an ungrateful girl and she liked her family, but today, for the first time in her life she wished she was not just a poor girl from the village. Even though Prince Ren liked Fae and was nice to her, he only wanted her to be his personal maid at the resort.
Fae must know her place and must not take Ren's kindness to heart. She just needed to clean the villa and sing to help Ren sleep. Basically, just doing her job.
She tried to divert her thoughts by focusing on her work. Fae quickly changed the sheets and duvet, as well as pillowcases. Then arranged the bed neatly.
After that, she changed the water in the vase and rearranged the lavender, so they looked fresh again. The lavenders in the vase actually smelled better today than yesterday.
Ren sat in his work chair with a bright face and watched Fae work. After everything was neat, Fae was about to open all the curtains and windows to make aerate the room, but Ren immediately stopped her.
"Don't open it. Please just close all the curtains. I'm going to sleep," said the man suddenly as he got up.
His hand swiftly held Fee's hand which was about to open the window and they touched hands unintentionally. When that happened, for some reason Fee's heart suddenly skipped a beat and her body froze. Only a few seconds later she regained her mindfulness and hurriedly broke free from Ren.
"Understood, Sir. I'll close them now." She walked quickly to the end of the windows and closed all the curtains. Ren only looked at her actions with a smile in his eyes. He then shook his head, slowly remembering the events that had just happened.
This girl seemed to like him, Ren thought. Usually, Ren would always feel annoyed whenever a woman tried to get close to him. However, somehow, he didn't feel that way at all with Fae.
To be honest, actually earlier, when their hands touched, he also felt his chest pound. He had never felt anything like this before for anyone. Fee's presence and touch didn't bother him at all. This was a first for him.
Ren finally walked towards his bed. He casually took off his shoes and unbuttoned his shirt. Ahh ... he would finally have a pleasant sleep.
He took off his shirt and placed it neatly on the bedside table. Fee, who had just finished closing all the curtains, turned to face Ren to ask if he wanted the lights off or not.
Her face immediately flushed red like a boiled crab when she saw the crown prince of Moravia standing by the bed shirtless and ready to lie down.
However, Fae tried to hold back her feelings and said nothing. She must act professionally. Ren, who saw her expression, just shook his head slowly. From this girl's shy attitude, he could tell that Fae was still innocent and inexperienced with men.
Somehow it made his chest feel warm.
He got into bed and lay down comfortably. His face looked very relaxed. He then turned and waved his hand to call Fae over.
"Come here ..." he said.
Fae obeyed and walked slowly over to the man, trying to hide her blushing. "What's the matter, Sir?"
Ren closed his eyes and pulled the blanket up to his chest. "Please sing for me, until I fall asleep. After that, you can go."
Fae was stunned. She now realized that Ren really meant what he said earlier. The man was literally lying on his bed, ready to sleep.
Was it true that Fee's singing yesterday really lulled him to sleep? What if he's wrong? What if it was a coincidence? What if Fae sang something today and he couldn't sleep?
Suddenly Fae was anxious.
Ren opened one eye when he didn't even hear her voice. He looked intently at Fae and asked, "Are you afraid your singing won't help me sleep?"
Badump!
Fae was surprised that this man seemed to read her thoughts. She nodded weakly.
"It's okay. If that happens, then I am wrong. It's on me, I won't blame you," replied Ren casually. "But please .. can we just try it? You can sit on the sofa or on the edge of my bed. It's up to you."
He closed his eyes again.
Fae breathed a sigh of relief. All right ... if Ren really believed Fee's singing could help him sleep, then Fae would do her best.
She was very sorry to see the man having trouble sleeping. Hopefully, Ren was right.
Finally, she sat on the sofa by the bed and began humming her favorite song. Her voice was low at first, but later it sounded more confident.
Ten minutes later, Fae saw Ren was sleeping peacefully with his chest moving up and down regularly. Fae was amazed at the scene before her.
She really did not know that her voice could actually put this man to sleep. With great curiosity, Fae got up from the sofa and walked over to the bed, her lips still humming the song softly.
When she reached the edge of the bed, Fae could see that Ren was indeed asleep. His face looked very peaceful. He looked very young and kind-hearted when he was sleeping. There was absolutely no hint of arrogance or ruthlessness like what Fae saw when Ren got angry at Mr. Krause earlier today.
