As such, Skyler only said, "Okay."
He then closed the door behind Shirley and walked to his bedroom with her following slowly.
The bedroom was huge, and it had a six-foot-long bed with white sheets on it, making it look clean and neat.
Shirley pointed at the sofa and asked timidly, "C-Can I sleep on the sofa?"
Skyler sat on the bed before taking off his t-shirt, which shocked Shirley. "W-What are you doing? Skyler, don't cross the line!"
As she said that, he had already taken his shirt off, revealing his striated muscles.
Given Skyler's build, his muscles were only visible after he took his clothes off. With a charming look and a playful smile, he could charm anyone he wanted to with ease.
Holding the t-shirt in his hand, Skyler announced, "I'm going to sleep. Why are you still wearing your shirt?" He then looked at her chest and said, "Oh, we're different."
He then pointed at his proud chest and shrugged, smiling mischievously.
Skyler lay on his side, propped his head up with his arm, then suggested, "The couch isn't comfortable to sleep on. Why don't you sleep on the bed instead? I promise I won't do anything. Besides, with this being a six-foot-long bed, it's more than enough to accommodate both of us."
His words were sincere, for he did not have any ulterior motives.
Looking at the sofa, Shirley thought that although it was not as big as the one in the living room, it could still fit her.
"It's alright, I'll just sleep here."
She then walked to the door. "I'll bring my blanket over."
Seeing how helpless she was caused Skyler to smile as he thought it was the correct decision to bring her to the hidden clan as well.
Given how crafty Brennan—that old fox—is, she'll be spinning in the palm of his hands in no time if she stayed in Bloomstead.
Just as he was thinking about this, he heard the door shut. It was Shirley coming back with her blanket in hand.
