    Chapter 559


    “I have no reason to be calm when ites to your safety!”. Weston blurted out.


    They were both stunned and speechless by the sudden outburst.


    Ste looked up at him. If she wasn’t mistaken, she could’ve sworn that Weston just admitted how


    much she meant to him.


    Weston seemed to realize what he’d just said. The fire in his eyes dimmed, and he quickly let her go.


    He took onest look at her and, without saying anything, turned and marched into the inner room,


    mming the door behind him.


    Their bedroom was a massive suite with an inner room where their bed was. It was the door to that


    room that Ste stared at as she sighed softly


    If she let him stay angry this way for long, things would only get much worse. Besides, that guy that she


    got into trouble with didn’t seem an average guy. Judging by the way he threatened to tell his father


    about them, it was possible that he was from a rich and powerful family.


    Ste weighed the pros and cons. Then she thought Weston’s injuries might have worsened because


    he was helping her in the bathroom. Hence, she decided to go downstairs and look for Joan.


    “Joan, can you please help me get the first aid kit?”


    Joan had actually long been in bed, but she was woken up again by the sound of Weston’s caring


    home. She meant to ask Weston and Ste if they needed anything, but seeing that they rushed


    straight into their room, she thought it best not to disturb. But just as she was getting ready to go back


    to bed, here Ste was, looking for a first aid kit.


    “What happened?” Joan asked, “Is it anything serious? Should I call the doctor?”


    “No,” Ste shook her head. “Don’t worry. It’s just a shallow cut. I can take care of it myself.”


    Joan then disappeared into another room and returned with the first aid kit. Ste sorted out the kit’s


    contents and headed toward the bedroom.


    She knocked on the door.


    There was no response.


    “I’ming in, okay?” Ste said.


    She turned the doorknob and discovered that it wasn’t locked.


    The door opened with a click.


    Ste stepped into the pitch-dark room. Weston would usually leave a nightmp on for her because


    she would often wake up in the middle of the night from the night terrors she suffered.


    But he didn’t this time.


    Ste stopped in her tracks. She suddenly realized that Weston

    had slowly learned her quirks and habits till they were on the back of his hand. He had been helping


    her even in the areas of her life where she never realized needed help.


    But as realizations that came toote tended to do, it left a . bitter taste in her mouth. She had no idea


    how to feel about all


    this.


    Quietly, Ste ced the first aid kit on the nightstand and headed to the bed, but on her way, she


    tripped on something and lost her bnce.


    She fell to the floor with a loud thud.


    Luckily for her, the room was covered in a thick carpet, so it didn’t hurt. Still, her fall did make a noise,


    and surely enough, Ste heard a rustling sounding from the bed.


    The next second, themp was suddenly turned on, flooding the room with a warm yellow light.


    Ste had to squint to adjust her eyes to the brightness. When she finally looked up, she was greeted


    with Weston’s inky gaze.
