Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2240

Josephine blinked, then a smile slowly crept onto her face. The look in Ethan’s eyes, as he stared at her, was somewhat familiar to her. Although it lacked the affection and intimacy. that it used to have, she was happy that Ethan wanted to recover his memories for her sake.

Ethan led Josephine up to the southern corridor of the third floor. That was where Ethan’s room was. The household staff had placed Josephine’s luggage inside the living area of his bedroom suite. Josephine blushed at the sight of it. Does Mrs. Quarles want Ethan and me to share the same room? While Josephine didn’t mind, she didn’t know if Ethan would.

By now, Ethan no longer needed to keep his head bandaged. He had a scar that was less than two inches long and it did nothing to affect his attractive looks, though his shaved head added an air of masculinity to him. Josephine cleared her throat. “Ethan, do you…. want to sleep in separate rooms?”

She knew that in Ethan’s mind, she was still a stranger. It would be quite awkward for him to be so intimate with her when he didn’t have feelings for her! What if he doesn’t like to be disturbed? He might need his space to carry out his private matters. “I’m fine either way.” Ethan shook his head and let Josephine decide.

Josephine mulled it over. Even though she wanted to get close to Ethan as soon as possible, he didn’t know her at all, and she ran the risk of leaving a bad impression on him if she got too physically intimate with him so soon. In the end, she decided that they should sleep in separate rooms.

She was afraid that being in the same room would only make it impossible for her to resist the urge to be intimate with him. She reminded herself to keep her emotions in check for now. Let’s wait until Ethan likes me again.

“I think it’s best if we sleep in separate rooms for now, Josephine said. “Why don’t you take the bed? I can take the couch.” Ethan had no problem with sharing a room with her.

“That won’t do. You should be resting and recuperating. How can I possibly let you sleep on the couch? Let’s just wait until you’ve fully recovered and see,” Josephine declared. Ethan had no choice but to go along with her choice. “Alright. I respect your decision.”
