Chapter 153
On the other end of the line, Juliet did not hear any response from Moira, Juliet felt something was
off. “Moira, what’s wrong? is your connection unstable?”
“No, Juliet, I think someone is breaking in…”
As soon as Moira said that, the door to the entryway opened, and a familiar figure walked in. Moira
held her phone and awkwardly pulled
back.
However, at this moment, Juliet’s voice came from the other end of the line. “Hurry up and hide. I’ll
call the police for you. What’s your address? Hurry up and log out of the game. We’ll talk through
text messages on WhatsApp. Don’t call. You’ll be in trouble if the intruder finds you!
Moira didn’t answer.
“Well said, I should stop talking too. Moira thought.
Juliet hung up after she had told Moira what she needed to do. Moira looked at Bary who had
just walked in, and smiled awkwardly. “Mr. Covington, you’re back.”
“Didn’t Linden send you my schedule?”
In other words, Bary wasing back today.
Moira pressed her palm guiltily. “It’s sote. I thought you would only be back tomorrow.”
Moira had been having so much fun these past two nights that she had forgotten that Bary was
returning today.
Bary nced at her. “It’s already sote. Why aren’t you asleep?”
Moira paused before answering, “I haven’t been able to sleep well these past few days.”
Moira did not dare to look at Bary. She wasn’t a good liar, and Bary seemed to be able to see
through others.
Bary unbuttoned his cor, revealing his exquisite corbone. He nced at her with his dark
eyes. “Why?”

“Probably because not used to being alone.” Moira answered.
I’re on a business trip. The vi is too big, and I’m
Even Moira didn’t believe this lie.
At this moment, her phone let out a sound, the word “defeated” ringing in the room, and the
animation of shattered crystals appeared on her
screen.
Bary nced over, “You’ve lost your game.”
Moira’s face was a little hot. She felt like a student who had been caught ying gameste at night
by her parents.
Moira looked at Bary and forced out a smile. “It’s okay. It’s just a game. It’s just for fun.”
However, in reality, Moira was already wondering if she could surpass her current level.
Bary nced at her and suddenly raised his hand. “Come here.”
Moira blinked and obediently walked over

The distance between the two of them shortened, and the familiar fragrance of fir rushed at her.
Moira felt a sense of security that she barely
noticed.
Moira walked over to Bary and raised her head slightly. Her pretty eyes were filled with
confusion. “Mr. Covington?”
Bary reached into the pocket of his suit jacket and took out a box. “It’s a gift from my trip.”
“This… isn’t too appropriate, right?” Moira said.
Afterall, Moira felt that she wasn’t Bary’s real wife.
“Too cheap?” Bary asked.
“That’s not what I meant. I just don’t think our rtionship…” Moira spoke.
Bary let go of her and walked past her to the stairs. “You’re too sensitive. Linden bought a gift for
his girlfriend on the business trip, so I had to buy something too.”
Realizing that she was overthinking, Moira blushed. “Thank you.”
“Sure.”
Bary seemed to be very tired. He raised his hand to massage his temples and raised his long
legs, heading upstairs.
Moira watched Bary until he disappeared from view. Then, Moira raised her hand and pinched
her cheek.
‘Am I overthinking again?‘ Moira thought.
Moira lowered her head and realized that Bary had brought her a box of candy.
It was mango–vored candy.
‘No wonder he asked me if it was too cheap, she thought.
Moira opened one and popped it into her mouth to taste it. It was quite delicious. She picked up her
phone from the sofa and nned to return to her room to sleep.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a loud knock at the door.
‘Oh no! I forgot Juliet was calling the police!‘ Moira thought.
