Chapter 507
Brian did not seem to believe Nova's words. There was a hint of mockery on his lips as he coldly threw her wrist away. "It better be like this." He took the remote control and walked to her room. He pressed it twice, but there was no response.
"The air conditioner is broken," Nova asked, "What were you suspecting me of just now?"
Brian glanced at her. There was no warmth in his eyes. Even if he had misunderstood her this time, he felt that Nova must be hiding a secret. Nova frowned unhappily. "Why are you looking at me like that? Do I look like a bad person?"
"You don't look like a bad person. You hid your evil intentions perfectly. I'll have Melvin get someone to fix it," Brian said calmly.
Nova took the opportunity to ask, "The air conditioner in my room can't be used anymore, so I'll stay in the room your ex-wife used to stay in!" Brian's figure paused. It was as if his entire body was enveloped in a layer of coldness in an instant.
He said, "Impossible."
Nova didn't understand. "Why? Do you want me to die of heat on such a hot day?"
Brian looked at her for a while and suddenly said, "Sleep in my room."
Nova fell silent.
After saying that, Brian took the lead and walked back.
Nova was stunned and followed him.
After she came over, he went into the cloakroom to get dressed. Nova was covered in sweat. She did not hesitate before taking her clothes and going to his bathroom to take a shower. Brian sat on the chair and read quietly. After a while, the bathroom door opened and Nova came out in her pajamas.
He turned around and saw her leaning against the door, looking at him with a faint smile.
Nova asked, "Where do I sleep?"
Brian looked away from her and remained silent for a long time.
Other than Louise who went to his bed that night when he was drunk and unconscious, only Grace had slept in his bed.
He was resistant to letting her sleep on his bed.
Nova didn't know what he was
thinking. She walked over to him andnoveldrama
zily against the table, I'm
sure you want me in your bed."
Brian looked at her in a low voice. He wanted to call her shameless before he heard her say, "I don't want to sleep in the bed you slept in with your fiancée. I'll sleep on the sofa."

Thinking about how Brian and Louise might have slept together in this bed, she felt extremely disgusted.
Nova lay on the sofa and closed her eyes to rest. Soon, she fell asleep.
When he turned his head to look at her, her breathing was shallow and long.
She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, and her smooth arms subconsciously shrank.
Brian stood up and picked up the blanket on the bed. He walked quietly to her and gently covered her.
Even he did not notice that his movements were extremely light as if he was afraid of waking her up.
She looked very gentle when she was asleep. She was a completely different person from her usual enchanting and charming appearance.
It was as if she was pretending to be enchanting. Only this look was the real her.
Brian narrowed his eyes and slowly squatted down in front of the sofa, staring at her face.
Suddenly, he realized that there seemed to be a tiny scar on the corner of her jaw.
Brian thought, 'She had done plastic surgery before?'
At this moment, Nova who was originally sound asleep seemed to have had a terrifying dream. Her brows were tightly furrowed.
She mumbled indistinctly, "No... Don't... Aus..."
He tried his best to distinguish, but he could only hear a part of a name.
At this moment, she suddenly opened her eyes.
