When her fingers touched Steve's tanned skin, Thirza's face instantly turned red.
She had, as often as it got, spent more than appropriate time in Steve's arms, but none of it could match the kind of feeling now being spread through her whole body as her fingers touched his body.
Thirza's fingers were a little cold. At first, Steve only felt that the skin touched by her was a little cold as well.
But in the blink of an eye, the coldness turned into a boiling heat. He felt as if his skin was about to be burned.
"Steve, wait for me for five minutes."
"Okay."
Thirza was also a bit shy and embarrassed by her action.
After she cleaned up the bowl and chopsticks, she went out. Steve used to take care of her. This was the first time that she took care of Steve. She felt very good about this feeling.
Just like how her parents took care of each other.
Thirza covered her blushing cheek with her hands.
"I don't know if Steve likes me."
Soon, Steve's illness was known to Evalyn. Evalyn came over with some food.
"Aunt Evalyn, what are you doing here?"
"I heard that Steve fell ill, so I came over to take care of him." Evalyn was much more imposing than Lucille. She entered the house directly.
Thirza's face darkened. It was not her style to quarrel with others face to face.
She had learned Adam's scheming since she was a child. No matter how much she disliked Evalyn, she would not show it on her face.
"Aunt Evalyn, sorry to trouble you to come all the way here. I'll take care of Steve."
"You are a child yourself. How can you take care of others? Besides, you are also a patient.
"It just so happens that my schedule is quite loose these days, so I will come over and take good care of you two. Don't worry at all, Thirza."
Thirza's heart was about to burst into flames. "Don't worry? You are the one that I have to worry the most about!"
"Aunt Evalyn, I feel much better now. I've basically recovered. But I do remember that Steve said something last time." "What was it?"
The corners of her mouth curled into a snicker. "Steve should have told you that if you can't accept me, Steve won't be with you."
She still remembered how Evalyn had left angrily that day. And now, she was back again. Women's actions were never in line with their words.
Evalyn looked at her smiling eyes. This girl was not ordinary. This was the first time she looked directly at Thirza.
"Why wouldn't I be able to accept a girl as cute as you? I decided to come here only to show Steve how serious I am. You are in good hands now."
"Aunty, it's not so easy to take care of me." Thirza smiled eerily and turned to leave.
Evalyn stared at her from behind, an incredible thought appearing in her mind. But... that couldn't be.
If she didn't really like Steve, why could she feel the strong coldness from her?
Evalyn shook her head and placed the groceries in the kitchen.
She tiptoed to Steve's bedroom and found Thirza leaning against his bed, reading.
Steve took the medicine and fell asleep. She saw Thirza also sitting on the bed, and the expression on her face changed a little.
Although Thirza was much younger than Steve, her appearance was already close to that of an adult. The two of them should know that sleeping together wouldn't be so appropriate, shouldn't they?
Steve wouldn't even touch her while he was okay with sleeping with this girl.
