Chapter 11 Assassination

“Aiden Darlow, my assistant. You can contact him if you need anything.” Preston introduced the man.

“I have only one request, and that is to sleep with you,” Hedy repeated her intention. After washing her hands, she took a seat at the dining table.

Other than that, she didn’t need Preston’s help with anything else.

Preston raised an eyebrow slightly.

If someone else had said those words, they would have been labeled as a pervert.

He sat across from Hedy, gracefully picking up his cutlery. “I’m not sure about what food you like or can’t eat, but I hope this meal suits your taste.”

“I’m not a picky eater,” Hedy replied, her gaze slightly lowered. And she didn’t say anything more.

In her previous life, she had eaten wild grass and chewed tree bark just to survive. Compared to that, all human food was incredibly delicious.

Preston nodded.

The word “vigilant” was no longer sufficient to describe the girl before him.

She had completely sealed herself off, impervious to even the slightest breeze. Naturally, there was no need for her to be on guard against anything else.

She was only eighteen years old. What had caused her to become this way?

Was such a drastic change in her temperament the result of the unrequited love for her fiancé?

The meal proceeded in silence. Thankfully, both Hedy and Preston were experienced individuals who could adapt to different situations.

Unlike the servant nearby, who was already fidgeting due to the overwhelming awkwardness.

After dinner, Hedy made her way to Preston’s bedroom.

The bedroom followed a minimalist design with cool–toned colors. There weren’t many items present, but each one was undoubtedly expensive.

“Ms. Ellis, the bathroom is on the left. Everything you need is prepared. Childe King is handling business in the study and will join you later to sleep,” the servant said, wearing a somewhat bashful expression.

Who could have imagined that Childe King, the dream man of countless young girls, would one day be sleeping with a rural high school girl?

It would certainly shock many people if this news got out!

Meanwhile, Preston finished his tasks and headed towards the bedroom.

Pushing open the door, he found the young girl leaning against the headboard, studying her textbooks. The warm orange glow in the room softened her cold and sharp aura, making her profile appear particularly gentle.

Upon hearing the noise, she immediately looked up. Emotionless indifference filled her eyes as she regarded him as if she were looking at an emotionless sleep machine.

Preston lay on the other side of the bed.

Hedy turned off the lights and lay down as well.

The two of them shared the same bed.

Preston could feel Hedy shifting closer and then farther away,

seemingly searching for the right distance.

Finally, she turned on her side and lightly rested her forehead against his shoulder. This gesture resembled that of a loving couple, filled with intimacy and reliance.
