The smoke dissipated, and the scene before his eyes gradually became clearer.
There was a woman sitting in the bath.
She had a stunningly beautiful face, with delicate eyebrows and eyes like a painting, well-defined features, and pale cherry blossom-colored lips.
Her eyes seemed to be filled with countless specks of starlight, dazzlingly bright.
Even Adrian, who had seen his fair share of beautiful women, was taken aback for a moment.
Was this the beauty Leon and his group had sent to him?
This woman was indeed beautiful, but unfortunately, he had no interest in even the most beautiful women.
He stood to the side for a moment, a cold smile playing at the corners of his mouth, and said in a cold voice to the woman, "Get out of here on your own, I'll give you one minute, and disappear from my room immediately."
Hearing his voice, the woman slowly lifted her head.
Her eyebrows furrowing lightly, she stared at him for a moment before suddenly reaching out.
Before Adrian could react, she took hold of his pant leg.
Adrian's body immediately stiffened, his whole body tensing up. He thought he would vomit right away or start itching all over, but after a moment, the expected rejection reaction never happened.
Adrian suffered from androphobia.
He couldn't be close to any woman other than his family members.
But to his surprise, he didn't reject this woman's proximity.
His body didn't produce any adverse reactions.
Adrian lowered his head, staring blankly at her with a stunned and surprised look in his deep, dark eyes.
Before he could figure it out, the girl had already stood up from the ground, her slender arm around his neck, her delicate face lifted, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed his slightly cold thin lips under his shocked gaze.
She looked at him with her wet eyes and whispered, "Help me.”
The next day.
When Elara woke up, she was the only one on the big bed, but there was the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
She sat at the edge of the bed, clutching the quilt, her mind blank for a few seconds before all her memories returned.
Thinking about everything that happened last night, her face turned pale.
As she pondered, the sound of water stopped from the bathroom.
Without thinking further, she endured the discomfort of her body, jumped out of the bed, quickly picked up the clothes on the floor, put them on, and quietly left.
Not long after Elara left, there was a click, and the bathroom door opened.
Adrian walked out of the bathroom.
He was wrapped in a bath towel, with broad shoulders, sturdy and muscular chest, narrow waist, and long legs that defied the heavens.
Short, wet and messy hair added a carefree touch to his look.
He glanced carelessly around the room, and when he saw that the messy bed was now empty, he was stunned before his eyes darkened, and he walked to the bedside.
He made a call, and soon, a lazy voice came through: "Adrian, this is surprising! You're actually calling me."
Adrian ignored his teasing and said straight: "There was a woman in my room last night."
A moment of silence.
"Cough cough cough." The man at the other end of the phone seemed choked, coughing vigorously, "What, what did you say? Adrian, does 'stayed' mean the same as I thought? Did you guys, uh, do that?"
Adrian: "Yes."
"Cough cough cough..." The man coughed again, as shocked as if the sun had risen from the west, "Damn, weren't you irritated with women touching you? I remember a woman accidentally touched you once, and you washed your hands ten times."
"Yes."
But he wasn't at all repulsed by the woman last night.
Not only was he not repulsed, but he also loved the faint fragrance on her body.
He couldn't help wanting to be close to her.
He made the call because he wanted to understand what was wrong with him.
"You want to tell me that your problem suddenly got better?"
"I don't know." Adrian was silent for a few seconds, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, "She seems different from other women. My body doesn't reject her, and I like it when she's close to me."
This kind of phenomenon had never happened before.
"What's more," Adrian looked down at the messy bed, and after a few seconds of silence, said gravely, "I slept for six hours last night, didn't wake up halfway through, and didn't have that nightmare again."
The man on the other side was surprised, "What's going on?"
Adrian squinted and rubbed his temple, his voice a little hoarse, "If I knew that, I wouldn't be calling you. I was thinking, could it be related to her?"
The man replied, "The woman who took your virginity?"
Adrian: "..."
The man teased him for a moment, but quickly put away his playful mood and said seriously, "If you want to know if it's related to her, it's simple. You just need to see her again, right?"
Adrian: "..."
The man continued, "Adrian, I'm not joking. If it's really because of her, then this woman is your savior.”
