My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2051

Rainie was talking in her sleep again.

"Don't go... Please... don't leave me..." she murmured as tears flowed down her face uncontrollably.

Unable to bear seeing her like that, Clint reached his hand toward her again. This time, Rainie grasped his extended arm tightly. Clint was helpless, but he could not bring himself to wake her up. Just like that, Clint stayed by Rainie's bedside the entire night.

Rainie woke up the next morning. She was rubbing her eyes when she noticed they were inexplicably swollen and red.

"What... happened to me?"

"You're awake?" Clint asked dully, still sitting beside her.

Rainie screamed in shock.

"Huh? My lord? What… Where am I?" Rainie looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, trembling as she asked.

"We're at a friend's house. Don't worry, everything's fine. By the way, there are some clothes on the bed. Since there are no women's clothes, you might have to make do with them for now," Clint said as he pointed to the clothes beside the pillow behind Rainie.

Rainie picked up the clothes and then shyly nodded. "Uh... Thank you."

"Don't mention it. Just rest here for now. I'll bring breakfast to you later," Clint said before leaving.

"Mr. Melton, you're awake," the butler downstairs greeted politely.

"Yes, is breakfast ready?"

"Yes, it is. Would you like to eat in the dining hall or..."

"Bring it to the room. Just leave it at the door."
