"You can rest assured that nothing improper will happen when you stay at my place," Lyke Zhekova said.
Peggy Lewis's face immediately turned red.
She hadn't even contemplated that scenario.
To be precise, she felt it would be an achievement if she didn't avail herself of Lyke Zhekova's kindness.
There was no reason for her to fear that Lyke would take advantage of her.
Moreover, she firmly believed that Lyke was a proper and upright man.
"I haven't thought about it in that way," Peggy Lewis said.
Until Lyke mentioned it, it hadn't crossed Peggy's mind, but now she couldn't help but visualize it.
All sorts of indecent scenarios filled her mind.
Peggy's face turned even redder.
For the moment, she found it hard to look Lyke in the eye.
With her head bowed down, Peggy said in a guilty tone, "I was just thinking that it might be awkward for us to live together, being one man and one woman."
