CHAPTER 24: CHAPTER 24: ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?

Did Nina Sinclair secretly tamper with tonight’s dinner?

Otherwise, why would he feel impulsive towards her?

Julian Lancaster frowned deeply. The more he tried to suppress the restless impulse, the more he felt like his reason was being burned away.

He took a deep breath and turned back to the bathroom to take a cold shower.

After finishing the shower, the fire within him was extinguished.

Julian Lancaster lay next to Nina Sinclair in a bad mood. He slept rigidly, far away from Nina, without coming close to her at all.

In a daze, he fell asleep.

An hour later, Julian Lancaster opened his deep eyes in the dark.

Whenever he closed his eyes, images of Nina Sinclair in a camisole floated into his mind, making it impossible for him to fall asleep, especially with the light breathing from the person beside him, which he couldn’t ignore.

He gritted his teeth and suddenly got up from the bed to go to the living room outside.

The next morning, Nina Sinclair opened her eyes. She sat up from the bed, and Julian Lancaster was no longer there beside her. When she reached out, it was cold, indicating Julian had gotten up long before.

She got up and walked to the living room, only to find him sleeping on the sofa.

Julian Lancaster’s height exceeded the sofa by a good margin, nearly unable to accommodate him. A slight turn could make him fall off, with his two insanely long legs hanging in mid-air, looking somewhat pitiable.

Nina Sinclair walked over to look at him closely. Julian Lancaster’s eyelashes were long, gently covering his eyelids, with faint shadows under his eyes, looking as if he hadn’t slept well.

Why was he here?

Was he sleeping here all night?

Nina Sinclair returned to the room, grabbed a thin blanket intending to cover him, but as soon as she placed it over him, Julian Lancaster opened his eyes!

He grabbed her hand, and Nina Sinclair, who was leaning over, suddenly fell onto him.

Nina Sinclair panicked. Although he had some psychological flaws, he was still a man. She desperately struggled to distance herself from him, but the more she panicked, the more embarrassing it became.

Her hand pressed and roamed over Julian Lancaster’s chest, directly waking him completely!

Men are naturally impulsive in the morning, and Nina Sinclair kept moving on top of him, soft and fragrant in his arms, it was practically hellish torture, a deadly torment!

"Don’t move!" Julian Lancaster had no choice but to reach out and hold her down.

His voice carried the huskiness of sleep, sensually melting into one’s eardrums.

Nina Sinclair felt his gaze was terrifying, deep enough to devour her, and dared not move.

Embarrassedly, she said, "I was just trying to cover you with a blanket."

Julian Lancaster took a deep breath. It took a while for him to calm his impulse, reaching out to help Nina Sinclair stand up.

Nina Sinclair didn’t know where to put her hands and feet. Although she confirmed Julian was among her kind, it was still truly embarrassing earlier, a faint blush spread across her cheeks.

"Why... why are you sleeping in the living room?"

Julian Lancaster’s face turned sullen.

Why was he sleeping in the living room? Was it not because Nina Sinclair tried all sorts of ways to seduce him last night? Otherwise, why would he come to sleep in the living room!

Now this woman was still pretending to innocently ask him the reason.

Seeing Julian Lancaster’s face turn gloomy, Nina Sinclair cautiously asked, "Last night I hazily felt you went to the bathroom many times, are you feeling unwell?"

Julian Lancaster coldly snorted and turned to walk into the room.

Watching his cold silhouette, Nina Sinclair looked utterly bewildered.

Why did this man suddenly get angry?
