Chapter 87: The one getting hurt
Amelie gazed at him. "You are my home, so there’s no question to leave you."
Gabriel smiled at her response. For a while, they stayed in that place before returning to the mansion.
"Goodnight, Gabriel!" Amelie said, wanting to head to her own room. Tonight Gabriel didn’t stop her from sleeping alone because he had a certain work outside and he didn’t wish Amelie to know about that.
"Hmm. Goodnight," Gabriel said and they both went to their respective rooms.
Amelie freshened up and changed into her night clothes. As she sat before the mirror, she lowered her t-shirt from the neck to look at her mark. She touched it, feeling joyous. She removed her earrings and switched off the lights before heading to bed.
However, sleep didn’t reach her eyes. She would only toss and turn around the bed, feeling suddenly craved for something sweet.
Amelie went out of the bedroom and headed to the kitchen. As she opened the refrigerator, her eyes fell upon the pudding. She took out one in a small plate and began eating it.
"Gabriel didn’t insist on me to sleep with him tonight. I wonder why?" she murmured as she finished the pudding and put the plate in the sink.
"I should check on him," Amelie mumbled as she reached the staircase. However, before she could ascend it, she heard a sound, something like glass breaking within the mansion.
A frown appeared on her forehead and she decided to check.
