Severin had dinner with everyone at a restaurant before returning happily to the governor's mansion.
Sofia lay on the bed with conflicted feelings. Although there were no longer any moans coming from the room next to her, she had insomnia because she was thinking too much. She had already told Severin what she wanted to tell him, so she could not figure out any other excuse for her to stay.
"What should I do?" Sofia sat up suddenly. Unlike Sheila, she was not bold and brave enough to try and win his heart. By contrast, Sofia was a very shy woman. She was upset at not having a concrete excuse to stay.
At that moment, Severin was lying on the bed with Diane. She rested her head on his chest and said softly, "I can't help but feel that Sofia likes you after how she reacted today. She blushed so hard when Megan said that to her. I can tell that she's an innocent woman."
Severin smiled bitterly and said, "Don't say that, honey. Sheila mentioned before that Janice and Nancy like me too. You put it as though I should make a harem out of all these women just because they like me. I can't do that!"
Diane smiled and shrugged. She cocked her brow and said, "Well, I think you should give it a try if you like them."
Severin glared at Diane and retorted, "You just want to make things more complicated, don't you? You should get some rest. Good night!"
The next morning, Sofia bid Severin a reluctant and regrettable farewell.
