Luckily, the two blankets were already on the floor. They cushioned Olivia's fall, and it didn't hurt that much.
Olivia was fuming. Was Wayne even a man? He didn't have a shred of chivalry in him!
Wayne glanced at Olivia, who was glaring at him. He added, "Turn off the lights before you sleep."
His words only made her more angry. She couldn't understand how he could be so unfeeling!
Despite her anger, she still went and turned off the lights.
In the darkness, Wayne said chillingly, "I'm very sensitive to change, especially when I'm asleep. If I feel any danger at all, I won't hesitate to snap the neck of whoever's in front of me. I hope you'll still be alive tomorrow."
Olivia replied mockingly, "You're so awesome! Why don't you sleep with your eyes open?"
Wayne snorted.
She lay down with her back facing him and covered herself with one of the blankets.
Even though she had the urge to check around the room to see if the ring was here, she kept reminding herself to be patient. The time wasn't right yet.
Olivia stayed up the entire night last night. She had also been on the road for the past couple of days. She fell asleep quickly because she was exhausted.
Wayne wouldn't hurt her yet. Or else, he wouldn't even prepare the blankets for her.
Wayne could hear her soft and steady breathing. He marveled at how carefree she was, being able to fall asleep so quickly.
Through the dim lights shining through the window, he could see that Olivia had curled up into a ball like a hedgehog.
It was already daybreak when Olivia woke up. She was wide awake the moment Wayne got off the bed. He stood on her blankets as he was changing.
She saw his legs the moment she opened her eyes. She also saw the hairs on his leg, the black underwear he was wearing, and the outlines of a certain body part.
Even a person as stoic as Olivia screamed, "Ah! Pervert!"
