That only made him crazier.
“You made a lot of mistakes today,” he said later, carrying me to the bedroom. “Reflect on them. Tell me everything you did wrong.”
I wracked my brain. “I shouldn’t have… lied about being pregnant.”
“Continue.”
“I shouldn’t have… hit your white moonlight.”
Levias’s hand cupped the back of my neck. “You have no idea what you did wrong, do you? No matter. We have plenty of time.”
I buried my face in the pillow. He had been working out like a madman lately, and his stamina was even better. I wanted to run.
Levias grabbed my ankle and pulled me back for more. He kissed my swollen lips, wiping away my tears. “Crying so pitifully. Do you know what you did wrong yet?”
Overwhelmed, a sudden moment of clarity struck me. “I shouldn’t have… protected the bracelet first when I fell.”
“Mm!”
I smiled. “I knew you cared about me, darling.”
Levias stroked my back. “Are you jealous that I let her stay?”
Of course. I love you so much, I’m dying of jealousy,”
He sat up, lit a cigarette, his voice and expression cool. “Hah. You don’t love me. You only love my money.”
I shot back, full of false bravado, “How could I be so shallow? I’m also greedy for your body.”
I took the cigarette from his hand and finished the last half.
Just then, the butler came to the door. The white moonlight had a fever.
“You go to sleep. I’ll go check on her.”
The moment a man gets out of bed, he’s a heartless bastard.
To be honest, I was a little hurt. Just a tiny bit.
I pulled the covers over my head and fell into a deep sleep.
