He said casually, "Okay."
Then, he walked past Shirley and closed the door before heading towards the bedroom. Shirley followed him behind slowly.
The bedroom was spacious, with a two-meter bed covered in gray and white striped sheets. It looked neat and clean.
Shirley pointed at the sofa and asked softly, "Can I sleep on the sofa?"
Skyler casually sat on the bed and took off his shirt, which startled Shirley as she stepped back. "What… What are you doing? I advise you to think before you act, Skyler."
Skyler had already taken off his shirt as she spoke, revealing his well-defined muscles.
He was the type who looked thin when dressed but muscular when undressed. He had a devilish face, especially when he smiled mischievously, which could easily captivate people.
Skyler held his shirt and said, "I'm going to sleep. Do you still keep your shirt on when you go to bed?" Then, he lowered his eyes toward her chest naturally. "Oh, my bad. I forget that we're different." He pointed to his chest muscles and shrugged, smiling at her.
Skyler lay on the bed and propped his head with his elbow. "It's uncomfortable to sleep on the sofa. Why don't you sleep on the bed? I promise not to touch you. Besides, this bed is two meters wide. That's enough for both of us," he said sincerely. He swore that he had no ulterior motives.
Hearing his words, Shirley glanced at the sofa. Although it was not as big as the one in the living room, it was enough for her.
"No thanks. I'll just sleep here." As she spoke, she walked toward the door. "I'll get the bedding."
A hint of amusement flashed across Skyler's eyes as he watched her scurry away.
In that split second, he suddenly felt that he had made the right decision to bring her to the hidden clan.
If I were to leave her in Bloomstead, she would be tricked by Garrick's cunning methods.
As Skyler thought about it, he heard the sound of the door closing. Shirley had come back with the bedding.
