Chapter 83: DECEITFUL MAN
"She is sleeping," Ranon stated. He then approached Hazel and checked on her. She was indeed sleeping.
Recently he also noticed how she fell asleep very easily and often. From what he read, it was because of her pregnancy. Some women would have this symptom when they reached the second trimester, and currently Hazel was so close to it.
"Why do you let her sleep on the sofa?" Ranon asked Laurel. He turned his head and looked at his half-sister. The way he stared at her let Laurel know that he was not happy with the situation. "You are completely aware that she is pregnant, right?"
And right now, his anger had been washed away; it was replaced by his annoyance towards Laurel.
Of course, Laurel wouldn’t take it lightly. It was not her fault for Hazel to sleep on the sofa. "She was not sleeping when I left her here, and I was here with her waiting for you." She felt wronged. "I only left for a few minutes, and she has already fallen asleep. I don’t think she is asleep at all. Wake her up. I think she is only faking it."
Laurel was understandably furious because she had to be blamed for that; yet, Ranon didn’t care how she explained herself.
"Wake her up; I am sure she is not sleeping."
"Be quiet." Ranon’s voice was filled with authority, which made Laurel shut her mouth almost immediately.
She hated it. This half-brother of hers really knew how to handle people, and as much as she didn’t want to admit it, she was scared of him whenever he got serious like this. She could see it in his eyes right now.
