Chapter 178 I Want To Sleep With You

What unsettled Sidonie even more was the way Trent had just looked at Quinn,

Only after she called out to him did Trent tear his gaze away and give a small nod.

Inside the elevator, Sidonie suddenly asked, “Trent, if the timing’s right, will you really announce our relationship?”

Trent paused for a beat. “Of course.”

“Good.” Sidonic dropped her gaze. If he can’t find the right moment, I will.

Quinn hadn’t expected Julius to show up at her bedroom door that night. “What’s the matter?” she asked.

“Can’t sleep,” Julius said honestly.

Every time he closed his eyes, he saw her lifting off in that helicopter. He knew she was an excellent pilot, but the panic wouldn’t let go. And when he’d asked to come with her, her reasoning had left him. speechless.

She was a woman of principle and courage. She shone so brightly that it made him feel small. He hated that she would risk herself for others, but that was exactly why he was attracted to her. The conflict inside. him was tearing him apart.

Quinn looked him over. “You can’t sleep, so you came here for a bedtime story?”

“I’m not a kid,” he muttered.

Quinn stared at him. Sleep? What does he mean by that?

“You want to sleep with me?” she echoed.

“Yeah.” He nodded and stepped in closer. “I can’t sleep on my own tonight. I’m scared…”

“You’re scared?” She raised an eyebrow. This man had already dealt with the Whitethorns who opposed him. She’d even just upgraded the security system at the mansion recently.

“I’m scared that I’ll wake up and you’ll be gone. I’m scared that something might happen to you,” he said quietly.
