By the time Leah ate and drank her fill, it was already 11 at night.
Since she had eaten a lot and slept well, she felt energized
Unable to sleep right away after eating, she sat on the sofa and scrolled through social media. When she found the message board, she found out that her substitute writer had replied to a bunch of comments.
He placated the readers by saying that he was going to post 8000 words in advance at midnight.
When Leah saw this post, she immediately thought that it was a little strange. She frowned and muttered to herself, "What's wrong with this guy? Didn't he agree to update two days later? Why did he suddenly update today?"
Hearing Leah muttering to herself at the side, Ernest's entire body stiffened before he said quietly, "Perhaps he finished dealing with his family matters and found the time to write."
Leah nodded since it made sense. Then she turned her gaze to him and said, "Do you want to know how the book ends? Why don't we just stay up all night and wait for his update?"
Ernest's lips immediately twitched and his expression became odd when he heard her say that. He suddenly moved closer to Leah and said, "Since you seem to have recovered your energy, why don't we do something better?"
Leah immediately waved her hand and shivered. "I don't want to do that. I just want to wait for the update. If you don't want to stay up with me and wait for it, you can go to sleep first. I'll sleep after I read the update."
After Ernest heard this, he muttered, "What if he doesn't update because you don't go to sleep?"
Leah immediately frowned and asked in a strange tone, "Do you hear yourself? What kind of logic is that?"
"I just think that you should go to sleep. You don't have to stay up and wait for the update. Anyway, you'll get to read the update when you wake up, right?" Ernest said in a reasonable tone.
"But I really want to know what happens next. Don't you think it's very interesting?" Leah really wanted to know what was going to happen next.
"Even so, you can't just stay up for the sake of an update." Ernest brought Leah into the bedroom and tried to kiss her.
"I really don't want to do it again. Ernest, don't
mess around. I said no. If you keep acting like this, I'll get angry," Leah threatened.
Ernest started to gently persuade her with sweet words and kisses. He didn't force himself on Leah but he employed a roundabout tactic. Eventually, Leah surrendered herself to him.
Soon enough, the two of them started to go at it again.
The last time they did it, Leah had said she couldn't handle another climax. Who knew...
Ernest made her lose control and Leah was rendered boneless at the end.
She was groggy and started to doze off.
It was past midnight.
In a daze, Leah eventually fell asleep. By the time she woke up, it was dawn.
The first thing she did was check her phone for updates. She found that the substitute writer had indeed updated 8,000 words. Not only that, the plot really hooked her.
The update was posted fifty minutes past midnight.
The substitute writer had kept his promise about updating at midnight.
Leah mumbled, "He said that he would post it at midnight. I thought it would be at 12 sharp. It turns out that he posted it around 1 in the morning. That's so unprofessional. I would've posted it on time."
