Let Me Stay The Night

Bailey’s extremely unstable emotional state and tendency to overthink made reading her thoughts really difficult, so Christina didn’t dare agitate her too much.

“Julian was here, but you were asleep at the time. I didn’t tell him to stay because I figured you didn’t want to see him just yet.”

“You’re lying! Julian never came to visit me!” There was a hint of despair in Bailey’s smile. She took a deep breath and continued with certainty. “He’s trying to show me that Zeila is more important than I am!”

Christina teared up slightly and found herself at a loss for words. She didn’t know how to comfort Bailey.

Despite being in a dazed state from time to time, Bailey was actually aware of everything going on around her.

With a bright smile on her face, she let go of Christina’s wrist and said confidently, “Christina, Julian and I are over!”

Bailey felt as though something deep inside her broke when she said that, and the pain was so intense that it could tear her heart apart.

Even so, no one could help share that pain of hers, so Bailey would have to endure it all on her own.

The light in the corridor flickered, and a chilly breeze came in through the window.

Christina felt a shiver down her spine as she sat there and stared at Bailey, who had been venting her emotions for over an hour.

Bailey’s last sentence kept echoing in Christina’s mind, and her pained expression was practically etched into Christina’s memory.

Because Christina had a similar experience in the past with Nathaniel, she was able to understand Bailey’s feelings.

“It’s getting late, Mrs. Hadley. How about I send you home?” Sebastian suggested.

Christina stood up and stretched her aching legs to relieve some of the pain as she replied, “Have you made the arrangements for Bailey’s protection? She’s emotionally unstable right now, so I’m very worried about her safety. Her caretakers must be very alert and meticulous when looking after her.”
