The next morning.

Sunlight peeked into the room as Maria groggily opened her eyes, only to realize she was clinging to Sidney like an octopus.

The memories of last night came rushing back like a tide.

A cold glint flickered in her eyes as she turned onto her back.

Maria fixed her gaze on him, her expression serious and clear. "Why did you stay last night? And now, why are you offering to help me?" Sidney's face tightened.

Maria blinked, then unexpectedly laughed. She sat up swiftly, straddling his waist.
