However, just as she was scared out of her wits, her body suddenly fell steadily into a familiar warm embrace, and a pair of large hands wrapped around her waist.
"It's loud." A man's voice, laced with some disdain, sounded in her ear.
She froze, Noah Drexler?
She thought he was already asleep, especially since it was so late now, and the room was pitch dark...
Yet unexpectedly, the man was actually sitting on the sofa.
"Were you waiting for me?" She was momentarily shocked before she couldn't help but ask.
Thinking that he had been waiting here for her to come back, her heart warmed...
This was the first time she felt the sense of home since her father left her...
And it was still in his embrace.
However, before she could be moved, the man's dismissive voice rang out.
"No." Noah flatly denied, as if he wasn't the one who had anxiously instructed the guards to go out and look for someone earlier.
