Just then, a bolt of thunder cracked down from the sky, scaring Justin Hawthorne as he hurriedly hid in Laura Quincy’s arms, "Sister, Twinkle is scared."
Laura couldn’t help but pat his back gently, soothing him, "Twinkle, don’t be afraid, sister is here!"
Jason Hawthorne looked up at the scene of the mother and son hugging, feeling exceptionally warm...
Perhaps, he should change his mind and try to welco this woman into his life. After all, all these years, she was the only woman Twinkle was willing to get close to.
And also, he found himself interested in her!
"Twinkle, ti for a bath and sleep."
"I want sister to help bathe."
"Well... Daddy can’t decide that on his own."
For a mont, both big and small eyes turned to Laura Quincy, and she felt like she had fallen into a pit and couldn’t climb out...
After giving Justin a bath and coaxing him to sleep, it was already 11 p.m. The heavy rain continued outside, and Laura grabbed her bag to leave, only to be blocked by Jason Hawthorne.
"It’s too unsafe to go back with such thunder and lightning. If anything happens to you on the road, I can’t take that responsibility."
Laura glared at him, "Who asked you to curse ? I don’t believe there isn’t any car out there."
Jason calmly looked at her, "Others, I can’t control, but you’re my company’s employee and my son’s tutor. If anything happens to you, I’d certainly be responsible."
He sounded very earnest.
Laura was fuming, "Hey! Why are you like this!"
Jason ignored her complaints, "I’m doing this for your safety. Are you worried I might do sothing to you?"
Laura was exasperated, "You’re overthinking this!"
Jason’s dark eyes half-closed, "If that’s the case, then stay in the guest room tonight. You’ll be teaching Twinkle English tomorrow anyway."
Leaving these words behind, Jason headed upstairs.
Watching his back, Laura felt extrely frustrated, damn Demon King!
Every ti she got to the door, she was scared back by the thunder and lightning outside. It was terrifying! It felt like even inside the house, the lightning was out to get her...
Thinking about having to drive for almost an hour to get back, she hesitated.
The servant ca over at this mont, "Miss Quincy, driving in such lightning is too unsafe. There are many trees and few cars around here. If you really got struck, you’d be far from any help... Let show you to the guest room. It’s the sa one you stayed in before."
Laura: "..."
Her desire to go ho instantly vanished. Anyway, life is precious!
In the first-floor guest room, the servant had already prepared changeable clothes for Laura. She looked at them; there were both tops and bottoms, and they fit...
Taking the clothes, she went to the outside bathroom to take a shower. In the middle of it, the power suddenly went out.
At that mont, a thunderclap exploded in the sky, nearly causing Laura to slip, my God! Even such a luxurious villa would have a power outage?
The lightning tonight was simply relentless!
She hadn’t brought her phone, and it was pitch dark...
She felt around for her robe, put it on, and slowly walked out. She hadn’t taken many steps before sensing a tall figure in front of her pressing down...
Then, she bumped into a certain man’s strong chest, and without any warning, they fell to the ground together...
Thud—
Laura winced in pain, "Why did you pop out in the middle of the night? Were you trying to scare to death?"
