Chapter 190
When Eileen was getting ready for bed that night, she had thought she wouldn’t be able to sleep a wink.
Surprisingly, the moment she hit the sack, she was out like a light.
The familiar surroundings, though lacking their past vibe, still made her feel at ease subconsciously.
The next day, Egbert was getting up early.
After waking up, he knocked on Eileen’s door.
But all was quiet on the western front, no response whatsoever.
Egbert furrowed his brow. He knocked again for a while, but still, no peep from inside.
He started to get in a tizzy, pulled out a spare key from his drawer, and unlocked the door.
Inside the room, the curtains were drawn completely.
In the dark space, one could make out a small figure, curled up on the king-size bed, breathing steadily.
Egbert pursed his lips slightly. Standing at the doorway, he knocked again.
The noise was loud enough to wake the dead.
But the girl on the bed remained sound asleep.
Egbert’s expression turned serious. He quickly walked over, sat by the bed, and reached out to feel the girl’s forehead.
Her forehead was not hot; it didn’t seem like she was sick.
Just then, the girl on the bed stirred slightly.
Egbert thought she was about to wake up.
But Eileen just turned over and buried

After a while, he quietly withdrew his hand, got up, and left the room.
Upon quietly closing the door, Egbert still had a serious look on his face.
He first discovered Eileen’s shallow sleeping problem during the filming of Eyes on the Rendezvous.
Back then, Galen had asked them to build up their chemistry, and they ended up watching romance movies almost every night.
But Eileen couldn’t sit through those movies. She would always fall asleep.
However, no matter how deeply she slept, she would wake up instantly if he made the slightest move
It was like an instinctive response; she was always on high alert.
If he covered her with a blanket, she would wake up.
If he moved her body, she would wake up.
If he held her she would definitely wake up.
