Chapter 377: Baby (1)
At night, Everly was sitting in front of the computer, carefully studying the crime-scene photos on the screen, when a warm body suddenly pressed against her back without warning.
“Everly~ It’s so late. Time for bed…”
Warm, moist breath brushed against her ear, followed by Kesuye’s muffled, drawn-out voice. The heavy nasal tone was thick with an unmistakable note of childish pleading.
Everly glanced at the time in the bottom-right corner of the screen. 9:12 p.m.
She turned her head and, just as expected, found herself facing a pair of droopy, aggrieved puppy-dog eyes.
“It’s not bedtime yet. What, feeling lonely?” she asked.
Kesuye didn’t bother being coy. He immediately nodded.
As he moved, a few loose strands of hair brushed against Everly’s neck, prickling and tickling like countless tiny hooks tugging at her skin.
That was the hair Everly had cut for him.
