Seeing her like this, Anthony Charlie was somewhat disappointed and turned away, heading towards his study, "Go to sleep, I'll be in the study tonight."
For some reason, there was a sense of abandonment in his words, making Eve's heart clench.
She stared at him without speaking and went in the opposite direction, arriving at the entrance of the master bedroom.
The two of them stood there, back to back, their hands simultaneously on the doorknobs.
Taking a brief pause, they pushed open the door, went inside, turned around, and closed it.

Eve walked to the bed and lay down, her mind, which had been drowsy just now, suddenly clear.
She buried her head inside the blanket.
