Chapter 386
At Sapphire Hotel, strands of golden light scattered down, making one feel lazy from the sun.
A man sat with his back straight. One of his legs was bent and used as a pillow. A woman’s head was lying on his lap. Her eyes were narrowed as she enjoyed the sunlight.
The man stared at this little cutie with his dark and deep eyes. The emotions hidden in his eyes surged out and were constantly suppressed. He kept tidying her hair, which was not messy in the first place, with his well-defined fingers. He was only feeling the softness and smoothness of her hair.
Perhaps because it was very comfortable, the woman with narrowed eyes opened her delicate lips. “Frank, do you want to sleep?”
Frank was shocked.
He paused for a while before answering, “No, are you sleepy?”
He guessed what the little girl meant was really sleeping, not the thing in his mind.
As expected. Ava was dozing off. Under the warm sun, her bones were crispy from the sun. The sleepy bug crawled up her head, and she could barely keep her eyes open. She was half-conscious. “Then can I sleep in your bed?”
Before Frank could react, Ava continued to say, “Do you want to sleep together? We can go eat when we wake up.” Frank’s throat moved. “Baby Ava, do you know what it means to invite me to sleep with you?”
Ava rolled her eyes. There seemed to be something wrong. She was sleepy just now. She thought Frank would be more bored after she fell asleep, so he wanted him to sleep with her for a while. She hadn’t thought about the deeper meaning. She thought about it again. They wouldn’t do anything inappropriate. It should be fine if they just slept. “We’ll just sleep Hearing this, Frank’s eyes darkened. Helpless, he sighed in his heart. “Aren’t you hungry”
Ava shook her head. She was indeed not hungry. She would eat when she woke up. After all, it was nice to be with Frank, even if they just slept and did not speak.
Frank raised his hand to look at his phone and found there was a message. He did not turn it on immediately and only glanced at the time. It was 11:30.
It was lunchtime, and they couldn’t go hungry. He suggested patiently, “I’ll call them up. We… You can sleep after eating. You might have stomachache if you don’t eat and stay hungry”
Frank remembered that when they ate pizza previously, the little girl had said that she had a stomachache when she video-called Natalie and the others.
She couldn’t bear to refute his concern. In the end, Ava still asked Frank to call the receptionist to send lunch over. Today, she only wanted to stay in the same environment as him.
During the meal, Ava ate quietly. Frank helped her peel the prawns with disposable gloves. He was not hungry, to begin with, because he had breakfast too late.
After peeling the entire plate of prawns, he removed his gloves and threw them into the trash can. He picked up his fork and casually ate a few mouthfuls with her. After a while, he finished eating. “Eat slowly. There’s no hurry.”
“Okay.”
She answered obediently.
Then, Frank opened the message on his phone. It was a bailling and random message from Trevon. [You’re not a god. You’re a human. Not everything is within your expectations and control. Surprises always come so unexpectedly.]
Frank was very speechless.
He looked at the confusing message and was confused. This was the first time Trevon sent him a message like this. His first thought was that Trevon had sent the wrong message, and he replied like this. [Send it after checking the note. You’re old and blind.]
Trevon answered strangely, [Double Happiness.]
On the other side, Frank’s mind was filled with question marks when he saw these words. He, who had always been clear, actually could not understand them. Let your wife check your brain for free. Don’t go out with illness.]
Trevon sent a smiling emoji. I suspect you’re envious that I have a wife as a doctor. You don’t have to envy me because you don’t have one.
Frank frowned slightly and replied. [You’re crazy.]
After that. Trevon did not reply. He had achieved his goal and made Frank wonder what was going on. This feeling of curiosity and panicking was the effect Trevon wanted.
Ava had already finished her meal. There were not many dishes for lunch, so there was nothing left. She rested her chin on her hands and looked at Frank, who was frowning slightly opposite her. “What’s wrong?”
After thinking for a while, he could not think of anything, so he did not waste any more effort. “It’s line. Are you done eating?”
“Yes, I’m done.”
Ava replied sweetly,
Take some time to digest before you sleep. Frank continued to suggest.
Ava thought of a good point. It was also a picture that would be better remembered in the future. “Let’s watch a movie. The television here is quite big. If we close the curtains, it will be like a movie theater.
Looking at the little girl’s expectant gaze, how could he refuse? He agreed again. “Okay, you can choose. I’ll call room service to collect the plates.”
If the plates were not collected, the room would smell when the air conditioner was turned on. It didn’t smell good.
Seeing that he had agreed, she quickly took off her slippers and climbed into bed. She straightened her clothes and picked up the remote control to choose a good movie. She opened the front page and saw that there were too many movies, There were all kinds of movies. “Frank, what do you want to watch? The exciting ones, or scary ones, or love…”
“Suit yourself. He said those two simple words.
I kind of want to watch a horror movie, but I’m afraid of the psychic trauma.”
“Then choose another one. He couldn’t stay in Sapphire City forever. After watching it, she must have wild thoughts at night. It was better not to watch it.
After searching for a while. Ava’s eyes were finally fixed on a movie. It was Transformers. Ava thought the vibe was exciting when a robot transformed.
“Oh, then let’s watch Transformers. This seems to have been released recently, Jasper especially likes this toy. I also think it’s very handsome.”
“Sure.”
Ava urged, “Then hurry up. I’m opening it.”
Two minutes later, the customer service staff took away the plates. He glanced at the room and Ava. Frank, who noticed it sharply, smiled and did not say anything.
The movie began.
Frank did not go to bed immediately. He stood on the edge of the bed for a while and stared at Ava. He only took his shoes off and sat down when she patted the seat beside her. Ava held his arm intimately and tilted her head to rest on his shoulder when she saw him come up.
It was as if she was prepared to watch a movie. Frank closed his eyes helplessly, seeking calmness. He turned his head and asked the person beside him, “Do you want me to order a milkshake?”
Ava, who had always liked milkshakes, refused this time because she was too full. “No, I’m full. I can’t eat anything now”
After saying that, she raised her head and kissed Frank’s cheek. After kissing him, she smiled innocently.
Frank’s eyes darkened as he suppressed his emotions. Did this girl not treat him as a regular man? “Baby Ava, don’t flirt. Something might happen.
Ava just wanted to kiss him. When she heard what he said, her face instantly turned red. She pretended to be unaware of it and hid on his shoulder. She replied gloomily. “Oh
