Chapter 1453
Kisa pursed her lips.
What a load of nonsense to be busy with! Davian has already said that the company has been quiet lately. Obviously, he just doesn’t want to sleep with me.”

“Well then, I’ll go to sleep first. You should rest early too, don’t stay up too late,” Kisa said before. walking toward the neatly arranged lounge.
The room was spotless with white sheets that were neatly folded at the foot of the bed. Kisa touched the bedding, and it was so thin that it felt like she was lying on an air-conditioned blanket. She took off her outer clothes and lay down, quickly covering herself with the sheets. But even with the heater on full blast, the open window made the room freezing cold. Kisa curled up. hoping Gilbert would hurry and come to warm her up.
After tossing and turning for what felt like hours, she finally called out to Gilbert at the door,” Gilbert, aren’t you going to sleep?”
“No, I’m not,” he replied.
“But I’m so cold. Come sleep with me?”
“The remote’s at the head of the bed. Just turn the heat up.”
“But I’ve already turned it up as high as it will go. And if I turn it up too high, the air will be too dry. And you know what that means a sore throat tomorrow for sure.”
There was silence.
