29: Chapter 29: The Appearance of the White Moonlight 29: Chapter 29: The Appearance of the White Moonlight Emily Parker browsed the forum for a while and then started feeling sleepy.
She used to sleep poorly due to her part-ti jobs, but ever since she had the child, her sleep quality has improved significantly.
Emily yawned, shut down the computer, sent “Good night” to Grandpa “Ti” before going to sleep.
In the dead of night, Carlos reeked of alcohol.
He had been at a social event tonight, mixing various drinks, so he drank a bit too much.
His phone rang again; without looking, Carlos knew it was his father, Evan Palr, calling.
He didn’t answer.
Evan had already called him five or six tis that evening.
Carlos opened WeChat and sent “Good night” back to his “grandfather.”
The WeChat app vibrated—it was a ssage from Rainny White.
“Brother Carter, are you asleep?”
Carlos pinched his brow as he rembered the marriage contract he had made.
He was married now, and even though it had only been a year, he was still supposed to remain faithful during that ti.
Fortunately, he had not yet officially established a relationship with Rainny White.
It was still possible to let go now.
He didn’t respond to Rainny.
At Capital University, in the girls’ dormitory.
This was a four-person dorm room where several junior girls were chatting and laughing, seemingly in a harmonious atmosphere.
“Rainny, congratulations, I knew you’d be selected.”
The dorm leader spoke; they were all congratulating Rainny White.
Rainny White had fair skin, long black straight hair that accentuated her charming features, and had a pure deanor.
Her only flaw was the pair of large eyes on her palm-sized face, veiled in a layer of grey—she was blind.
“I’m a blind person participating in the city image ambassador selection, wouldn’t that be inappropriate?”
Rainny White’s face showed panic; biting her lip, a blush appeared on her face.
She had been very self-conscious since she beca blind from Maria Carter’s illness.
“How could that be?
Other than being unable to see, you are stronger than others in every aspect.
You’re not only beautiful, but you also have good academic achievents and play piano wonderfully.
In my opinion, you will absolutely be number one in this city image ambassador contest.”
The roommates were all encouraging Rainny White.
“Rainny, you’re outstanding in every other aspect, but your everyday clothes are a bit too plain.
When you participate in the selection, you must put on so makeup and change into so nice clothes.”
Rainny White was stunned; her family was not financially well-off, and she was always working part-ti to save money.
She previously had a part-ti job at a coffee shop, but Brother Carter had her quit after so custors harassed her.
She was even relying on Brother Carter to sponsor her tuition fees, so she didn’t have money to buy pretty clothes.
Seeing Rainny White biting her lip and remaining silent, the other girls could see her predicant, and the dorm leader continued,
“Rainny, don’t you have a boyfriend?
He seems pretty tall.
I saw him drop you off at school last ti.”
“Are you talking about Brother Carter?
He isn’t my boyfriend; he’s just a friend.”
Rainny White felt a little embarrassed.
She knew Brother Carter had feelings for her, and she liked him a bit, but her mother said girls should be reserved and not be easily deceived by n.
“Is there ever a pure friendship between n and won?
What does he look like?
Does he co from a wealthy family?”
The roommates pressed for details.
“I don’t know.”
Rainny White, being blind, didn’t know what Carlos looked like.
She only knew he was a salaried employee, with a monthly salary of about ten thousand or so.
“Send him a ssage asking him to take you to the departnt store to buy clothes and makeup tomorrow.”
“I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
Rainny White hesitated.
“It’s natural for a woman to spend a man’s money; how much he spends on you represents how much he loves you.
We will send the ssage for you,”
With that, a roommate snatched Rainny White’s phone designed for the blind, found Carlos’s WeChat, and sent the ssage.
However, after waiting for quite a while, Carlos did not reply.
Rainny White looked hopeful, but after a long wait, Brother Carter still did not respond…
Outside the villa, the driver helped Carlos out of the car.
Carlos was heavily intoxicated, his steps unsteady.
As he approached the bedroom door and was about to enter, he suddenly rembered sothing.
Right, he was married now.
There was another woman in the bedroom.
He didn’t plan to live with Emily to avoid being manipulated by her.
Carlos decided to sleep in the guest room.
Once in the guest room, the effects of the alcohol intensified.
Carlos was so drunk that he didn’t bother turning on the light and just lay down.
“Hot.
Oliver, turn down the air conditioning.”
In the middle of the night, Carlos felt extrely hot and was in a daze.
The air conditioning in the guest room might not be working properly; it needed to be fixed by Oliver tomorrow.
At that mont, Carlos’s hand touched sothing cold like ice.
Chill to the touch.
Without thinking, Carlos scooped up the “ice.”
He held on to it tightly, like a traveler in the desert who had suddenly found water.
“Hot!”
At dawn, Emily Parker was woken up by the heat.
She had slept soundly last night, but halfway through the night, the temperature around her seed to soar as if there was a stove next to her.
She tried to push the stove away, but it was far too heavy.
She fell asleep again later in the night.
Suddenly alert, Emily realized sothing was amiss.
She opened her eyes and was instantly jolted awake.
A handso face ca into her view.
The man’s hair was long and black, fanning out like feathers, with a nose sharp as if chiseled by an ax.
Emily’s gaze drifted upwards to the man’s face.
It wasn’t—
Why was Carlos here?
At that mont, his leg was sprawled over her, and with a scoop of his hand, he pulled her over.
Emily struggled and pushed away Carlos’s hand.
The man’s handso brow furrowed.
Early in the morning, who dared to disturb his sweet dreams and steal his ice?
Continued scooping.
Emily felt both embarrassed and annoyed, lifting her foot, ready to kick Carlos away.
However, just then, the sleeping man’s eyelids twitched, sensing sothing instinctively.
With a swift movent of his hand, he caught hold of Emily’s ankle.
The next mont, Emily let out a gasp.
The man, still half-asleep, reacted like a startled beast, agilely leaping up, seizing Emily’s ankle.
