"Have you covered her with a blanket?" Sky asked casually after Louis closed the door. "She can't sleep well if there's nothing covering her body. I think she doesn't like her skin to be in direct contact with the air."

Louis raised an eyebrow. "Is that so? No wonder she used a sleeping bag the first time she slept in my penthouse."

Sky nodded awkwardly. She realized that it was her chance to convey her opinion about where they should talk. However, when she just caught her breath, Louis had already grabbed her hand.

"Now let's keep our promise," he pulled her to walk with him.

Seeing his enthusiasm, Sky was flustered. "Louis, wait. I don't think your bedroom is the right place for us to talk. How about the library? There's no one there."

"No. Emily can come there anytime. She usually reads a book when she can't sleep, and Cayden always accompanies her. I ever found him sleeping on the library couch, on Emily's lap."

Sky winced. They were getting closer to the stairs. "How about the b

    "I thought you would be happy with my arrival. I meant to offer myself to be your graduation companion," Sky admitted shyly."Wait," Louis raised his hand, asking for a pause. His eyes rounded, doubtful at the possibility that emerged in his mind. "You wanted to be my graduation companion? Why? Did you ... like me?"Sky pursed her lips. She was too embarrassed to admit it. "That was five years ago, Louis. I was still very young. I often acted without thinking. Because of that," she frowned, "yes, I planned to express my feelings to you that night."Now it was Louis' turn to freeze. His eyes trembled as he stared at the beautiful face that held various emotions."You liked me too?" he sighed in disbelief. "Then why didn't you give me your surprise? Did I do something that changed your mind? I scared you? I was too harsh on you?"Regret was clearly etched on Louis' face. Seeing that, Sky became even more confused."When I arrived at the hotel that night, I saw you with your friends. So,

    Raising an eyebrow, Louis shook his head firmly. "Don't even think about it! She's nothing more than a cheap girl. She can't even maintain her own dignity, let alone other things? I don't want a woman like that to be the mother of my child. Besides ...."Louis snorted in disdain. "Just look at her appearance. Is she attractive? And her hair, my goodness ...."Louis shook his head slower this time. His expression was disgusted. "I couldn't stand looking at her. Can't she change it like other girls? It's too distracting to the eye. And just so you know ...."Louis' finger sharpened again. "A woman like her has no qualities to be proud of. All she knows is to have fun in life. She has no fighting spirit or clear goals. In other words, she is the perfect definition of the woman I hate the most on earth.""Sorry, Sir," a reporter finally spoke up, though trembling. "What if she gets pregnant? Will you be responsible for her child?""I think ...." Louis' eyes narrowed. "That's probably her

    Sadness escaped her mouth. Her eyes were glassy. "I was not the woman you desired. I wasn't worthy of being with you. And because I wasn't after your wealth, I didn't need to appear in front of you again, especially with Summer—our daughter. So ...."Shrugging, Sky forced a smile. "I thought there was no point in contacting you again. I could understand that you hated me. I was presumptuous because I dreamed of being with you."The fragile smile on her face successfully hurt Louis' heart. As the pain spread, Louis couldn't hold it in anymore."Sky," he sighed hoarsely, "you shouldn't think that way. You are the woman I want the most to be my wife. Even now, it's still the same. I want to live with you, with Summer."Sky looked at Louis with doubt. "Are you sure? Then what about Grace? Why are you dating her? Isn't it because you want to marry her?"Louis froze. His breathing became heavier. "We're talking about us, Sky. Can we not talk about her now?""She is your girlfriend, Louis, a

    Louis smiled wryly at Sky. She looked cute when she looked down with her lips pursed like that.Respecting her decision, he sighed in resignation, "Okay. I won't touch you again until I break up with Grace. And I think I need to apologize for this afternoon. I shouldn't have kissed you like that. Did I scare you?"Sky's eyes immediately rounded. Her cheeks felt warm. Her lips trembled as she said her answer, "A little. You remind me of what happened that night."Sky's voice was soft, but Louis could clearly hear the vibrations in every word. It made his heart heavy again."By the way, you haven't answered my question, Sky," he muttered.Sky's eyebrows were raised. "What question?" She glanced at him in surprise."Was I rude that night? Did I ... force you? How could we do that? Wasn't it a red-headed girl who took me out of the bar?"In an instant, Sky's face flushed. Her pulse was racing. She was too embarrassed to bring it up, let alone discuss it."Sorry, Louis. Can we just not tal

    "Have you forgotten who initiated our relationship?" Grace asked while raising an eyebrow. Her elegance had disappeared with those glaring eyes.Then, with her pointed index finger, she poked Louis' shoulder. "You, Louis. You were the one who wanted this relationship. You said we could be an ideal couple, the couple that people out there would envy. Now, after we've made it, you're going to give up?"Shifting her jaw, Grace shook her head slowly. "Don't expect me to back down from our marriage. Our relationship must be maintained. If not, where will I put my face? I can't lose to that cheap woman!""Ace, come on, "Louis sighed restlessly. "What do you mean by that? This isn't a competition.""Yes, this is a competition," Grace said firmly with burning eyes. "This is a competition to maintain my pride, Louis. If you didn't choose me, people might think she's better than I. I don't want it to happen. Besides, you're my fiancé. I never let anyone take what's mine."Everyone stared at Gra

    Sky's face turned pale. She never thought that her secret could be revealed."No. That's not true. I mean, it's true that I borrowed money from a loan shark. But I've paid it off. I'm no longer in debt, and I never aimed for Louis' assets," she explained in a thin and hoarse voice."Are you sure?" Grace asked in a doubtful tone. "Then tell me. Where did you get the money from? Your parents didn't know you had debt, even after your relationship improved. You always pretended to be okay in front of them. You never accepted money from them.""Do you think I can't fight for my own life?" Sky said angrily. Tears welled up in her eyes."I can work hard! I can support my own daughter. Do you think all this time I've only been adventuring, spending my parents' money, and having fun?"Holding back the vibrations in her lips, Sky shook her head slowly. "I work, Miss Evans.

    Louis grabbed Grace's arm, trying to calm her down. However, she brushed him off again."Don't try to influence me, Louis!" she said emphatically. "I will never let you leave me. The ideal couple is us. Not you and her. No one can change that."Louis took a heavy breath. He was exhausted. "Grace, come on. We have no hope. It's useless to force a marriage. We won't be happy. Look at how we're fighting now. I don't want us to have disagreements every day."Suddenly, Grace pointed her finger at Louis. "You dare challenge me? Do you think I'm playing around when I say I want to maintain my relationship with you?"Nodding, Grace raised her eyebrows. "Alright. Let's share this problem with the public.

    “Stop! You can’t marry that girl, Mr. Louis Harper. I will never give you my blessing!”Everyone gasped at that cute, high-pitched voice, and Louis was no exception.He was kneeling on the floor, holding a ring box. When he turned his head, his jaw dropped. His eyes widened, not believing what they had caught.A little girl was putting her hands on her hips at the entrance of the restaurant!Her bear jumpsuit made her look super cute, especially with her puffed-up chubby cheeks and forced-to-look-scary eyes.“Gosh! Who is that little girl? How dare she ruin my proposal?” Louis thought, furious.A week ago ....“I’m not sure about telling you this, but I think you deserve to know. Louis is planning to propose to his girlfriend this Saturday. Maybe there’s something you want to tell him. Do it before it’s too late.”Sky tried to forget that information many times.
