Odette ran out of the bathroom and covered her nose with a tissue. She leaned against the wall and panted heavily. It was not like she had never seen a man before. Why did she become like this when she was with him? She wanted to stop the bleeding quickly but the more panicked she got, the more nosebleeds she got.

"What are you doing? Come in quickly." Eric's voice came from the bathroom. "I'll be right there." Odette didn't think about what happened just now, only then did her nosebleed stop. She threw the tissue in the basket and took a deep breath before walking in again.

This time she did not dare to raise her hand and picked up a towel from the shower table and gently rubbed his body. "You are very afraid of me?" Eric turned around. He looked at her lowering head, and could not help but laugh. "No!" "If that's screamed and her entire body was immersed in the water. She was so scared that her face turned pale. She raised her head and looked at him. Odette's face instantly turned red. Just as she was about to shout, Eric covered her mouth, "Don't shout, or the maids downstairs will misunderstand."

Odette's face was already so red that blood was about to drip out. Could he not be so frivolous? He only took his hands off when he saw her nod. She was afraid that she would be as useless as before. after she finished wiping his back, she ran away from the bathroom. Eric laughed. it had been many years since he laughed so easily. She was quite interesting.

He wiped his body, took out a pair of pajamas, and sat in the wheelchair. In the bedroom, Odette was already lying on the bed. She used the blanket to cover her tightly. Eric couldn't help but laugh, "If you continue like this, you will die. I do not wish my newly wedded wife to be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment as soon as she marries me. This matter will be in the headlines."

Odette hid under the blanket and heard his words. Although it was a very normal sentence, when he said these words, there was some additional meaning in them. Odette tried her best to calm her heart and did not think about the awkward scene that just happened. She moved her body to the side of the bed and left a spot for Eric.

"Are you inviting me?" Eric came to Odette's side and slowly approached her. He smiled evilly. "Nonsense!" "I won't scare you anymore. If you're tired then rest first. I still had something to do in the study."

"Come back early to rest." Although Odette wasn't a speaker, she didn't shutter when speaking. But why did she always feel awkward when talking to him? "Okay" After he said that, he raised his hand and gently rubbed her head. Then he turned around and left the room. After a while, Odette came to her senses. She was the only one left in the room, lying on the bed in a daze.

Tonight was the most embarrassing night in her whole life. However, did Eric just touch her hair just now? She touched her face with both hands. It was very hot. After he entered his study, his smile gradually disappeared. Instead, he changed into his usual solemn and cold expression.

He took out his phone and dialed a number, on the other line. "Sir, what is your order?" "Go find out what happened to Odette's mother and how Beth and Joey's relationship is." He had no interest in investing in these things before, but now he subconsciously wanted to know everything related to Odette. "Okay, sir!"

Although Billy didn't know why his boss would want to investigate these things as a subordinate he knew he shouldn't ask these things. Eric finished his word at one o'clock in the morning. He looked at the time and found it was already so late. When he returned to the room, Odette was already asleep on the bed. There was no sound in the bedroom.

Eric slowly raised his hand and gently caressed Odette's cheek. When his fingertips touched her skin, he discovered her skin was tender and moist like a baby's He didn't go to bed to rest and once again entered the bathroom. Not long after, the sound of flowing water could be heard from inside.
