Be lit up. “Really? can?”
Halsey grinned. “Of course you can Don’t you want to sleep with me tonight?”
Be nodded eagerly. “I do!”
Wendy chuckled. “Halsey, wouldn’t it be a bit inconvenient for Be to go home with you?”
Halsey replied, “It’s no trouble at all. Be used to sleep over with me all the time.”
“Well, that was then. Things are different now. You’re with Mr. Lane. I don’t know if it’s convenient for him,” Wendy
said, ncing at Shaun
Shaun smiled slightly. “It’s no problem. I like Be too.

Wendy left, and Halsey carried Be to Shaun’s luxury car. Shaun sat up front in the driver’s seat, while Halsey and Be
rode in the back.
“Where are we sleeping tonight?” Be asked.
“We’re going back to my vi,” Halsey replied.

Shaun gave her a little smile. “What’s the real question you wanna ask?”
“Nothing Forget it.” Halsey turned to leave
But Shaun grabbed her gently by the arm. “I’ve lived here alone for the past three years. I’ve never brought any woman
home. I asked Martin to prepare the slippers. If you don’t believe me, ask him ”
Halsey’s mood lifted. “I was just casually asking. You didn’t need to exin”
Shaun reached over and flicked her nose lightly “So you’re taking Be home after this? You really don’t want to sleep

Halsey’s face turned bright red. “Who wants to sleep with you? You’re shameless!”
