Chapter 531
Hence, Brian was extremely clumsy when he did her skincare.
By the time the skincare routine was completed, almost an hour had passed.
It was already raining outside. Even with the air conditioner on, Brian’s forehead was covered in sweat.
Nova lay on the bed with her eyes closed. She seemed to be sleeping uncomfortably. In a daze, she opened her eyes again.
She sat up in bed and held up her hand. “I need to change into my pajamas…”
Brian felt speechless.
Nova originally wanted to take a shower, but she was afraid that Brian would take advantage of her. Therefore, when she was lying on the bed just now, she thought for a long time and decided to endure it for the night. Brian stared at her for a while and let out a shaky breath. “Where are the pajamas?”
Nova’s eyes were half opened. One moment, she was pointing at the wardrobe, the next moment, she was pointing at the bathroom, and the next moment, hse was pointing at the balcony.
Brian looked at the places she pointed at and gritted his teeth. “Where exactly is it?”
“I don’t remember. Why are you shouting at me? Look for them!” She pulled her hair haphazardly.
Brian took a deep breath and opened her wardrobe to take a look.
Finally, he found a long dress that looked like pajamas. When he sat on the bed to undress her, he was stumped again.
Nova raised her hands as if she was tired of raising them. She pouted and closed her eyes. “Hurry up! The bra is strangling me!”
Brian gulped and slowly raised his hand to take off her clothes.
He tilted his head to the side and tried to unbutton her bra.
However, after searching for a long time, he could not find the button at the back.
Nova opened her eyes and glanced at him. Seeing that his face was tilted and his forehead was covered in sweat, she chose not to tell him
that her underwear was buttoned up in front.
Brian did not take it off for a long time and was a little angry. In the end, when he turned around, he saw a patch of attractive skin.
He cleared his throat, his voice still hoarse. “Your… your bra can’t be unbuttoned.”
Nova leaned back and lay down. Her long legs even kicked the bedsheets. “You don’t want to change me… You just want to make me feel uncomfortable for the entire night, right? You heartless man!”
Brian’s forehead throbbed. He did not even dare to look at her directly. “How am I a heartless man?”
His gaze suddenly caught sight of the buttons on her bra and his expression became serious.
He stared at the buttons for a long time, and his entire body heated up again.
After a while, he reached out to pick her up and unbuttoned her bra.
He closed his eyes and took off the last bit of fabric on her body. Then, he put the dress on her while only using his hands.
His palm was burning hot. When he touched her smooth skin, it was like an electric current spreading from his palm to his limbs.
Brian carefully placed her head on the pillow and covered her with a blanket.
He took a deep breath and sat under the air conditioner for a long time before he calmed down.
He got up and walked to the bed. He called out softly, “Nova… Nova?”
There was no movement. This time, it was as if she had really fallen asleep.
Brian turned around and walked out of her bedroom, closing the door gently behind him.
He went to the living room and looked around. Then he opened the drawer of the coffee table.
Outside the window, it was already raining heavily Lightning flashed and thunder tumbled. The light passed through the window and illuminated the bedroom very brightly. Nova opened her eyes and
cold expression. She thought,
halready 2:30 in the morning, but
‘It’s
he still wants to search my apartment. He knows what he is doing.’
