The sound of knocking on the door was very urgent. Although it was across the door of the living room, Jason could still hear the fear and anxiety in his heart.
Jason hesitated for a moment.
He grew up in the countryside, so he was not afraid of this kind of thunderstorm in the middle of the night.
But after experiencing the night of Fairytale Hill, he had to be careful all the time.
Especially at this critical moment.
Jason stood up with a drunken look. He walked to the door and turned on the monitor video.
Jason was a little surprised. He opened the door and went out with the umbrella.
At the gate, under the lightning and thunder.
Chen Stephanie, wrapped in gray plain clothes, looked pale, and her whole body was soaked in rain. She stood trembling in front of the door and looked at Jason with a panic look. "I, I dreamed of Jack..."
In fact, since the night of Fairytale Hill, Jack had been living in any corner of her life all the time.
She had never been in close contact with any man.
Especially Jack...
She even saw Jack do the same thing with his high heels in front of her and her sister.
Then, he watched with his own eyes that Jack was hit in the head by Jason's spear and died on the spot.
If it was not to support the family and prevent Chen Enterprise from falling, Chen Stephanie felt that she would definitely not be in a better mental state than her father, or even worse.
However, on this stormy rainy night tonight, there was only her in the villa except for the servants. Chen Stephanie really couldn't hold on any longer. She could even see Jack appear in front of her at any time and pounce on her with a grim smile...
Before she completely lost her mind, she forced herself to run out of the door, ran to the door of Jason's villa, and hit the door hard.
Jason held the umbrella over Chen Stephanie's head and took her into the house.
Then he asked her to go upstairs to freshen up and change her clean clothes.
He made her another cup of ginger tea. After she finished showering, she finished it in one breath and then her trembling body gradually calmed down.
"There are a lot of rooms upstairs. Except for the room next to the balcony, you can choose anything else."
The room next to the balcony was for Lusa. There were all her things in it, so it was not suitable for outsiders to live in.
"Yes." Chen Stephanie nodded.
"You can also watch TV for a while. Don't worry about disturbing me. The sound insulation here is good, and I have a better sleep." Jason thought for a moment and added.
"Yes." Chen Stephanie nodded.
"Then I'll go to bed. Good night."
As soon as Jason stood up, he heard Stephanie suddenly say, "Can I sleep with you?"
Jason turned his head in surprise and saw a faint blush on Chen Stephanie's white cheeks. He looked nervously at Jason and said, "I, I am afraid alone..."
Fear?
Jason turned his head and looked around. There was nothing to be afraid of in his family.
If she was afraid, she should be afraid of herself.
But the tension in Chen Stephanie's eyes was not fake.
Jason also knew what she was afraid of, so he nodded and said, "Let's go. Go to sleep."
Chen Stephanie stood up obediently and followed Jason upstairs.
Walking into the bedroom, Jason pulled the quilt and quilt off the bed and threw them on the ground. Then he took out a new set of bedding from the wardrobe and laid it out again. He turned his head and said to her, "I hit the bed, and you sleep on the bed. In the same room, you won't be afraid, will you?"
Chen Stephanie was slightly stunned.
He didn't know if it was a loss or a pity.
She nodded, but still hesitated and said, "Then, can you wait for me to fall asleep before you go to sleep?"
"Okay." Jason nodded with a smile.
Both of them woke up.
Although Stephanie's eyes were still closed, Jason could still feel her rising temperature and heartbeat from her close body.
"I guess the news about Uncle Dong has been sent over. If you sleep again, you will miss the opportunity."
Jason was not a gentleman. When he woke up, he felt very uncomfortable. Especially in the morning, he was energetic. He was afraid that he couldn't stand it and would do something against morality at this moment, so he couldn't help but say.
"Yes."
Chen Stephanie knew that it was meaningless to keep pretending. At the same time, she felt the change of the other party, so she reluctantly pulled out her numb and unconscious arm from under Jason's body. At the same time, she buried her head in Jason's arms and said, "Then, you go out first, and I'll change clothes."
"Okay."
Jason nodded. At the same time as he stood up, he covered Stephanie with the quilt. Then he bent down and walked out of the bedroom.
"Whew..." Chen Stephanie breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, when he saw Jason leave, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
She was woken up by nightmares several times last night. Every time she woke up, there was no one beside the bed. Besides, there were lightning and thunder outside the window. After several times of waking up, she sat on the bed and stared at Jason in silence. Until she couldn't hold on and fought with her eyes, she got up and got out of bed. She gently got into Jason's bed.
Just for a moment, Chen Stephanie felt that it was quite comfortable to sleep with Jason. The fear and uneasiness in her heart for such a long time were instantly washed away by this sense of security. She had never felt this kind of feeling before, which drove her to keep clinging to Jason and herself...
In the end, he didn't care about the image of the goddess and firmly locked Jason like an octopus. He was afraid that this sense of security would disappear after waking up like a dream.
Chen Stephanie also imagined what kind of man would bring her a sense of security... Was he a muscular man? Was he a business elite who came back from studying abroad? Was he a handsome young master? Was he an old man who was full of charm and knew the ways of the world?
None of them turned out to be...
However, he was just a guy whom she didn't care about at all when she first saw him.
The smell drifting from the quilt was very good. Chen Stephanie was a little reluctant to be surrounded by warmth. She gently moved her head to the place where Jason had slept next to her and leaned her head on Jason's pillow. She slightly closed her eyes and wanted to sleep for a while.
At this time, the sunshine outside the window came in and sprinkled in the bedroom, forming an endless picture, which was particularly attractive.
Jason was sitting in the living room, reading the information about Riley's whereabouts in the Capital City, with his eyebrows frowned.
