Blake Fuller and Caroline Edwin stayed at the deserted construction site for quite a while before returning to the Fuller mansion.
Back in the house, he carefully treated her wounds again and, after ensuring there were no internal or external injuries, he held her in his arms as they fell asleep.
That night, the two of them embraced each other, feeling each other's heartbeat through their thin clothes.
The next day.
The morning light was faint.
The room was quiet.
"Click—"
Suddenly, the door to the room was pushed open from the outside.
A neatly dressed Mrs. Fuller yawned, "Blake, mom needs to discuss something…" there was something to discuss.
Before she could finish speaking, seeing the two lying and embracing each other in bed, her mouth hung open, unable to close, her eyes full of shock.
Blake Fuller opened his eyes.
"Mom, don't be loud."
His slender, phoenix eyes were calm and indifferent, devoid of any trace of sleepiness, clearly having been awake for a while.
