Severin did not know how to answer Queenie’s question and felt a little awkward at that moment.


    Diane smiled slightly and said to Queenie, “Umm, it’s nothing like that! We just have too many empty


    rooms upstairs, so he wanted to make one of the rooms his own space so it doesn’t feel so empty.”


    She then hooked her arm around Severin’s arm. “Actually, Severin still sleeps in the same room with


    me most of the time.”


    Severin never expected Diane to be understanding to the point where she would take the initiative to


    avoid embarrassing him. He took advantage of the opportunity to put his arms around Diane’s waist,


    and then smiled at her. “Of course. We sleep together almost every night, but on the rare asions


    that I have something important to do such as having to research certain medical skills, I’ll head back to


    my room and sleep alone.”


    Diane blushed as soon as Severin put his arm around her waist, and her heart began to beat wildly


    too.


    “Yeah, that’s right!” Diane smiled cooperatively.


    Queenie covered her mouth andughed. “I see. You two should rest early then. I won’t bother. your


    sweet time.” She then walked to the room in the opposite corridor.


    “Let’s go to bed, honey. It’s gettingte!” Severin still had one arm around Diane’s waist as he opened


    the door and walked in before closing it shut.


    “When are you going to let go of me?” As soon as they entered the room, Diane immediately rolled. her


    eyes at him and asked.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.

    Severin finally removed his arm off Diane’s waist, albeit somewhat reluctantly, and then said, Thanks


    for helping me not of that sticky situation earlier. It’d be so embarrassing if my rtives. found out that


    you and I sleep in separate rooms.”


    “Hmph. Did you have to hug me so tightly, then? As if having your arms around me was not bad


    enough, you touched my waist twice, you scoundrel!” Diane rolled her eyes at Severin again and


    lashed out a little coquettishly at him. It looked less like she was scolding him and more like flirting with


    him like they were a young couple.


    “It’s all because you’re too beautiful, and I couldn’t control myself for a while there.” Severin smiled


    awkwardly, then asked Diane again. “By the way, why are you blushing so hard? I’ve been doing well


    recently, haven’t I, so could it be that you’ve fallen in love with me?”


    Diane immediately became super nervous and she averted his gaze. “Not at all! I’m just worried that


    Selene would be fatherless! But I’ll admit, you’ve performed well these couple of days and I can see


    that you’re a good person. We can talk about the other stuff another time.”


    Severin smiled and said, “Thanks for yourpliment, honey. I’ll head back to my room and get some


    rest now!” He then turned around to open the door and leave.


    When Diane saw that, she strode over, blocked the door, and said, “You….I don’t think you should go


    out. It won’t be good if your cousin finds out! It’ll be better if you just sleep here for the night…” Her


    voice became softer and softer toward the end of her sentence, and had it not been for


    Severin’s high attainment, an ordinary person would hardly be able to hear what she said.


    “Are you sure? You still need to let me through though. I’ll have to get my pajamas or else I won’t have


    any clothes to wear after taking a shower!” Severin was overjoyed because his rtionship with Diane


    seemed to have taken another step. Though she was his wife and they already had a daughter


    together, Severin knew that his daughter was the product of an ident, but he nevertheless hoped


    that he and Diane could develop true feelings for each other. That would be


    the best oue.
