Julien walked not only lightly but also slowly because he was afraid to wake up the woman on the couch.
It took him nearly a minute to take just more than twenty steps. His gentle love for her was so moving.
When he came to the couch, he squatted down slightly and stared at Sydney.
Sydney lay on her side on the couch, sleeping soundly. Her hands were folded under her head as a pillow, and her legs were curled up slightly.
It was probably a little cold, so she shivered occasionally.
Seeing this, Julien got up and went to his desk. Then he picked up the remote control of the air conditioner and turned up the heat.
After doing this, he went to his lounge and took out a thick blanket to cover Sydney for fear that she might catch a cold.
Julien knew that Sydney would not wake up for a while, so he didn't stay much longer by the couch. After he had put the hair on her face behind her ear, he got up and went to his desk. He planned to deal with the papers and waited for her to wake up.
When Sydney woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. She was so hungry that her stomach grumbled.
She opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was a luxurious coffee table.
At first, she was a little confused and didn't know where she was.
Then when she saw the black tea on the coffee table, she realized that she was in Julien's office.
She remembered that she had sent a message to Julien and sat on the couch at that time. Unexpectedly, she actually fell asleep.
Sydney didn't know how long she had slept, so she wanted to take out her cell phone to check the time. As soon as she moved her hand, something fell from her body and then fell onto the floor.
"Eh?" Sydney looked down and found that it was a blanket!
‘Why do I have a blanket on me?’
She remembered that there was nothing on her body before she fell asleep, so someone must have put the blanket on her.
Moreover, she had locked the door of Julien's office, so there was only one person who could come in and put a blanket on her.
‘The owner of this office, Julien!
‘Does he come back from the meeting?’
Thinking about this, Sydney immediately stood up, picked up the blanket on the floor, and turned around to look for Julien.
However, she didn't see Julien.
‘He didn't come back? Or he left again?’
Sydney lowered her eyelids, feeling upset.
Suddenly, there was the sound of a window opening in the direction behind her.
Sydney froze at first, then immediately threw away the blanket, and turned around abruptly.
Julien came in from the balcony with his cell phone, closing the balcony door and whispering something to the other end of the phone. He had not found that she was awake and was looking at him.
Sydney's eyes were full of happiness, and there was a bright smile on her face.
‘Great, he's really back, and he didn't leave. He was just making a phone call on the balcony.
‘It’s so cold on the balcony, but he chose to make the call on the balcony. Obviously, he didn't want to wake me up.
‘Such a stupid man!’
Sydney took a breath and shouted at him softly, who was standing in front of the French windows. "Julien!"
Julien was stunned for a moment. The next second, he took the phone away from his ear and turned to look at Sydney.
Sydney stood there, smiling at him brightly and beautifully.
Julien's pupils contracted slightly and soon returned to normal, but there was still a trace of gentleness in his eyes.
He raised his hand and waved to her to show that he had heard it. Then he put the phone to his ear, said a few words, and hung up the phone before walking quickly towards her.
When there were only a few steps between them, Sydney suddenly reached out her hand. "Don't move!"
