Aaron bit her earlobe. "This is the consequence of provoking me."

Selena immediately bit down on his shoulder, but what followed left her unable to even curse.

This man was truly a beast!

Aveline had a good night's sleep.

Perhaps it was because Selena was beside her, making her feel at ease.

She opened her eyes and said, "Selena, time to get up. I'll make some pasta for you. What kind would you like?"

As Aveline spoke, she got up, but when she looked beside her, Selena was nowhere to be found.

Where did she go?

Startled, Aveline quickly put on her shoes and hurried out to look for her..

But Selena was nowhere in the room.

She quickly grabbed her phone and called her, only to hear Selena's phone ringing in the bedroom.

Aveline's face darkened immediately!

What was going on?

Where did Selena go?

Why didn't she take her phone?

In the modern world, no one would leave their home without their phones.

And when did Selena leave?

Why didn't Aveline have any memory of it?

As Aveline was lost in thought, there was a knock on the door.

She rushed over to open it, only to see Selena standing there, looking utterly exhausted and drained, as if someone had sucked the life out of her. "Selena, where did you go?" Aveline asked, grabbing her hand.

Selena forced a weak smile. "I wasn't feeling well after drinking last night, so I woke up early and went for a walk."

Was that really it?

Aveline looked at her suspiciously, noticing her awkward gait and the heavy exhaustion that seemed to weigh her down.

"Are you okay?" Aveline asked, clearly worried.

Selena waved her hand. "I'm fine. I didn't sleep well last night. Looks like I need to quit drinking. I'm going to take a nap. Ave, sweetheart, you don't need to worry about me. Just go to work."
