"I am so tired. Good night!" Miley said as she stood up.
Upon saying that, her exasperated glare met with his eyes for a few seconds.
Her eyes flickered as she lowered her head, trying to get past Dexter. But her attitude and words had offended him. She could not get away in one piece.
As soon as she took the second step, Dexter carried her up, and she shrieked in surprise. After entering the room, he threw her on the bed.
"Dexter, what are you doing? Ah… Mmm…"
Before Miley could get up, she was pressed against the bed and kissed. His actions were domineering. As a result, she could not budge an inch.
After much struggling, she finally found the chance to take a breather and used her sharp teeth to bite his lips.
"Dare to bite me again!"
His body was on top of hers, and his breathing gradually became rapid. His dark gaze was intimidating, causing Miley to shiver a little.
"You dared to bring up divorce to Grandma!" He held her hands down.
Miley tried to pull her wrist out of his hands. "Because you keep forcing me and bullying me."
His body bent down, and she could feel his breath on her lips. "Should I remind you how you love pleasuring me?"
"Do you want me to do it?" Miley suddenly asked making Dexter freeze.
After staring at her for a while, Dexter got down from the bed and entered the bathroom.
With that, Miley fled from the scene and headed to her room. She was still traumatized by the episode earlier.
----
In the middle of the night, Miley woke up due to thirst. She went downstairs in a daze to drink a glass of water and returned to a room to continue sleeping.
At 2 a.m., Dexter returned to his room after he ended up verifying some documents. He went back to his bedroom and switched on the light. As he was about to walk to the bathroom, his steps halted. How on earth did this woman appear on my bed?
Dressed in cotton sleepwear, Miley was sleeping in an unruly position with her fair, long legs exposed in the air.
Dexter's eyes darkened. He went up and grasped Miley's arm.
"Miley Hudson!"
"Mm… What?!" Miley rubbed her eyes and shoved Dexter's hand away. She glared at him and mumbled, "Why did you come to my room in the middle of the night?"
Dexter refuted with a cold face, "Look clearly – whose room is this?"
Only then did Miley become completely awake.
She glanced around the room. It was Dexter's room – she had walked into the wrong room!
Upon realizing the fact, Miley's anger was dismissed at once. She got off the bed and apologized "I was too sleepy and accidentally walked into the wrong room."
"Accidentally walked into the wrong room?" Dexter examined her sharply. He didn't buy her reason.
"You told me to file a divorce and now you accidentally walked into my room?"
Miley explained, "It was an accident! I…"
Dexter didn't bother hearing her explanation and interrupted her coldly. "Get out!"
After taking a shower, Dexter lay on the bed. Miley's scent lingered on his pillow, which made him frown as he subconsciously recalled the scene when he spotted Miley just now.
Exasperated, he got off the bed and changed the bedsheets. With that, he finally fell asleep.
At night, Miley lay on the bed alone. She tossed and turned but could not fall asleep. The events that happened during the day kept replaying in her mind. Of all the images that flashed through her thoughts continuously, Dexter's lean figure appeared most frequently.
Miley might as well dampen everyone's morning with her sulking face.
Contrary to her expectation, Dexter decided to join her in the dining room even though Tina told her yesterday that he's the type who's so workaholic that he'd just eat his meals in his office.
"Can I just eat in the lounge-"
"No, you can't." Dexter cut her off before taking a sip from his coffee.
Miley frowned, picked up her spoon, a attended digging in as if she'd been starved for a year. She completely disregards all the table etiquette she learned in the past, which is still reasonable since she did lose her memories.
What's unreasonable here is how she drinks her coffee with a loud sloppy sucking sound.
Dexter can't help but be mentally sidetracked by how Miley makes those slurpy noises. That's when his eyes strayed to her wet lips as she kept sipping away.
Her eyes narrow while her lips turn redder from the warmth of the coffee. Now, as soon as she turns into a bit piece of bread, he suddenly finds himself entirely drawn for some reason.
Soon, Dexter finished his dinner. When he pushed away the chair to go upstairs, he uttered to Miley, "Come and look for me in the study room later."
What?
Miley was stunned.
'Is he going to kill me?' She frowned hard inside.
