Chapter 287: Hold on, let me check the time once more Chapter 287: Hold on, let me check the time once more The next day, Alice woke up early for some reason.
She scratched her head while staring at her mirror and sighed in defeat.
“It’s only been a week, how has waking up early on a daily basis gotten used to me already?” She looked up, her eyes glancing towards the ceiling, and once again, she sighed.
“I really wanted to sleep till noon, since I’ll be meeting Diane by one.
But I can’t go back to sleep for some reason,” She yawned.
“So, I guess there’s nothing else to be done.” She walked towards the bathroom, brushed her teeth, and walked back out after washing her face.
With her hand scratching her belly, she walked out of her room, only to find Damian who was about to knock on her door.
Her eyes slightly widened and she said, “Oh, I forgot you were here.” She said and Damian pursed his lips, gulping as he tried to avoid looking at her while she was shabby.
“Did you need anything?” “Well, I did.
I do.” He said, avoiding eye contact and she peered her face closer to him.
“What is it?
Why are you avoiding eye contact?” She asked but he shook his head, his face gradually growing red.
“No, it’s nothing.
I just…
Can’t look at you while you’re like that.” He said and Alice tilted her head.
“While I’m like this?” She looked down at what she was wearing.
Pajamas pants and a shirt that was nearly pulled up to her chest, exposing her belly.
“What’s wrong with me being like this?” “H-hold on.” He said, taking her hand.
“Please, pardon me for this.” He took her hand out of her belly and adjusted her shirt so it covered her completely.
She was still a bit confused but since he would feel more comfortable with her like this, she decided to just let it be.
“So, what are you up to?” She asked, resting on her door frame while folding her arms.
‘Wow, Alice looks so cool early in the morning.’ Damian thought, his eyes twinkling at her and she laughed.
“Did you just come here to look at my face?” She asked but he shook his head.
“No, I’m actually here for…” “Alice?” They heard Mark’s voice.
He stared at her with a surprised expression.
“You’re awake?
I can’t…
Believe it.” “Hah, neither can I.” She dropped her eyes tiredly.
“But it is what it is.” “Hold on, let me check the time once more.” Mark said.
It was clear that he could not believe that Alice would be awake so early on a weekend.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
It was literally the kind of day she would sleep in for so long.
But since she had an appointment by noon, he expected her to wake up thirty minutes before the time.
Yet, it was just 8am and she was already awake.
Were pigs flying by chance?
“No need to check the time,” Alice said.
“I’m awake early and I can’t seem to go back to sleep.
So, let’s leave it at that.” “Then, I should start getting breakfast ready.” He said, attempting to leave but she stopped him.
“Hold on.” She said and he turned to her.
“You’re dressed in sweats, were you heading for the training room?” She asked and he nodded.
He usually exercised on weekends in the training room before going to work but since he was no longer working there, he planned to spend a few hours there before he started making breakfast.
“Yes, I was.” He answered.
“Then, how about I join you?” She requested.
“But what about breakfast?” He asked her and she shook her head.
“You don’t have to fret about that every single time.
It’s not like you’re my servant or anything.
If there’s no time to make breakfast, we can just order something or go out to eat at a restaurant.
You’re my guardian,” she walked up to him.
“So, stop acting like you’re a slave that’ll get punished if you make a single slip.” Damian covered his mouth to avoid gasping.
Weren’t her words too harsh?
What was that about a servant and slave?
He did notice that Mark did everything for Alice as though he was required to do them by all means.
He thought that was just how they came to a consensus, but it seemed otherwise at this point.
“But I don’t feel like a slave or servant,” Mark said.
“If anything, I like doing these things for you.
I want to do them and I want to put your needs as my priority.” “Over yours?” She asked, tilting her head and he nodded.
“You’re a piece of work, Mark.
Don’t do that.” She said and turned around to head back to her room.
“Let’s go to the training room together.
Just wait for me here.” “But…” “No buts, Mark.” She interjected.
“Seriously, if you want to put my wants and needs first then I might as well want the same thing you want.” She muttered as she made her way to her door.
She glanced at Damian and said, “Just hold on a bit, Damian.
I’ll get changed.” Damian nodded and watched her shut her door.
After she was gone, he turned to Mark whose face had a light flush.
Even his ears were flushing.
He stared in surprise.
What was this he was seeing?
He was very sure Alice had reprimanded his actions and quite harshly too.
Maybe it was because she was just waking up, but she sounded quite grumpy.
But even after being told off like that, Mark seemed to flush at her words.
Did he like being reprimanded by chance?
Or was it something else?
He couldn’t get it.
Mark replayed Alice’s words in his head, ‘If you want to put my wants and needs first, then I might as well want the same thing you want.’ Didn’t that mean she cared about him to that extent?
He fed himself these words and that made him so glad that he could not hide it in his face.
Alice was the only one who cared about him to this extent.
“Will…
will you be heading to the training now?” Damian asked, twiddling his thumbs shyly.
“Can I…
Go with you?” CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Author_fredah Here’s the redeem code, y’all.
Now, no cheating.
Be fair and don’t use alternate accounts to redeem it.
Everyone deserves a chance to get this, okay?
