Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 126

In the bedroom, Zac was already back in bed. He looked over the door and said, "If you don't come out, I'm breaking in."

"It's not my fault that your bathtub is so comfortable." She cracked a joke to conceal her frail heart.

When she walked towards her bedside, she suddenly stopped and was left bewildered. She looked at the bed and wondered why it seemed so much smaller than it did yesterday. She wondered if she was just dazzled or her vision was getting impaired.

"I thought you were sleepy. Why don't you get on bed so we can sleep?" Zac leaned against the head of the bed and his eyes flashed with delight.

She proceeded to lie on the bed and pulled up the blanket. Zac followed and turned towards her with his head resting on his hand. He smiled with wonder and asked, "You muddle headed fool, what do you think of Dragon City? Have you encountered any problems?"

"It's been fine, however, there is a bit too much pressure," she said with an adorable pout.

"I can take you out tomorrow so you can wind down and finally relax." He placed his fingers on her hair and started to play with it.

"Where will we go?" she asked, raising her almond shaped eyes.

"Where would you want to go?" he asked her instead. Drawing under his breath was his perfectly curled lips.

"We could go trekking and climb the mountains. We could ask more people to come with us. Maybe Jim, Alice and Holy? Besides, tomorrow is a weekend and they should be free, right?" she said with a giggle, while an innuendo of cunningness was seen hiding behind the dimples on her cheeks.

"Is my company not enough?" Zac asked with furrowed eyebrows. Since his true identity had been revealed, she tried her best to refuse to stay with him alone.

"We should hang out with others too and let them enjoy themselves from their busy lives," she said casually. From this moment forward, she had to make sure she kept her distance from him. She didn't want to depend on him too much to take care of things for her.

"I don't like it when there are too much people. Let's go climbing, just the two of us," he said authoritatively like a king trying to make orders. It felt like Essie had no right to resist but submit to his control.

"He's like a tyrant,"

she muttered softly with discontent. She turned and faced her back towards him and tried to sleep.

He leaned closer to her, with his solid chest hovered over her back. She wanted to move over, but found that there was no space. "Ice guy, please move away a little. Don't push me!" she protested.

"There's no place to move! If I move further, I'm going to fall," he answered defensively.

Essie was completely clueless as to how this was possible.

She clearly remembered that the bed here was the same size as the one in her apartment back in Yang City. There was supposedly a lot of space for them to lie and move around.

She rolled over and raised her head to peek towards his side. 'How strange, there really is no room left!' she thought.

She was perplexed as she remembered the bed being wider the night before.

'The bed couldn't have just shrunk, just like that?'
