Chapter 1219: 637: Extra: The Big Bad Wolf’s Play of Hard to Get_2

Chester Robinson collapsed onto Alice Robinson, losing consciousness. Alice let Chester wrap his arms around her neck as she supported him, slowly leading him towards the room.

Chester was reeking of alcohol, mumbling, "Alice... don’t leave me... I can’t be without you..."

Listening to Chester’s words, Alice felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

She finally managed to get Chester into her room.

Chester was indeed drunk, as he fell onto the bed at once.

Not having supported him properly, she lost her balance and fell onto the bed as well.

"Ah..."

She let out a scream and quickly got up.

In the dim room illuminated only by candlelight, she saw him frowning, looking very uncomfortable.

"Alice... Alice..."

Alice sat on the edge of the bed, watching his unconscious calling, feeling heartache in her eyes, "I’m here."

Chester suddenly reached out and grasped her hand.

"Don’t leave me..."

Alice sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, wondering why her heart felt so heavy.

His hand tightly gripped hers, and his eyes slowly opened, gazing deeply at her, "Give me a chance, let’s start over, okay?"

The burning light in his eyes was full of yearning.

She could see the sincerity in his eyes.

Her heart hesitated, her eyes blurred as she looked into his eyes.

"Alice..."

Reason eventually conquered the struggle within her heart. She shook her head, freed her hand, and said, "I’ll go call someone to take care of you..."

As she turned, her wrist was grabbed again.

This time, before she could break free, he pulled forcefully.

"Ah!"

Alice was caught off guard, falling entirely into his arms.

Taking advantage of the situation, he flipped her over, pressing her beneath him.

Alice took a sharp breath, staring wide-eyed at his close presence.

His sharp nose almost touched hers, the pleasant scent mixed with light alcohol tickling her nose.

She parted her lips tensely, "You..."

His eyes blurred as he gazed passionately at her startled eyes, "Stay with me..."

Alice shook her head like a rattle.

His eyes flashed with a hint of hurt, "Do you really hate me that much?"

Alice hurriedly explained, "I don’t... I don’t hate you... I..."

He suddenly lowered his head and kissed her.

She widened her eyes in shock, gripped the bedsheet tightly, her mind going blank.

His tongue entered her mouth, tangling with her bewildered small tongue.

"No!"

She pushed him away forcefully.

Due to his drunkenness, he was easily pushed back onto the bed.

She sat up in a panic, her hand touching her lips, her heart pounding like a drum.

He lay on the bed, once again unconscious.

Alice jumped off the bed, standing beside it, clutching her chest that was rising and falling with nervousness, looking at him with lingering fear.

What was happening to her?

Why hadn’t she instinctively rejected his kiss just now?

Alice’s mind was a mess as she turned to leave the room.

"Alice... Alice..."

The soft murmuring voice reached her ears again.

Her footsteps halted in place, but after a long time, she couldn’t help but turn back.

He seemed very uncomfortable in his sleep...

After hesitating for a while, she finally walked into the bathroom, wringing out a towel.

She sat on the edge of the bed, gently wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Alice..."

He kept calling her name in his sleep.

She swallowed the lump in her throat, unable to suppress the turmoil in her heart.

The next day.

The bright light stung the person sleeping soundly on the bed.

Alice groaned softly, lazily curling into the arms of the person beside her.

Gradually, her eyes opened in a haze, and a handsome face appeared right before her eyes...

She was initially sleepy-eyed, but upon recognizing him, she screamed, instantly waking up.

The person beside her woke up due to her scream, his voice carrying the laziness of waking up, "Alice..."

His voice made Alice’s face turn white. She lifted the blanket to check herself and found her clothes intact, feeling relieved and quickly jumping out of bed.

Chester rubbed his forehead, sitting up. His head seemed to hurt, his eyebrows knitted together.

Alice asked awkwardly, "Why... why am I on the bed?"

Chester leaned against the headboard, glancing at Alice, "I woke up once in the middle of the night and saw you asleep on the bed. I moved you onto the bed."

Alice quickly recalled last night...

She had been taking care of him and had unknowingly fallen asleep.

Alice regained composure, saying, "You were drunk last night..."

Chester rubbed his temples, "Did you take care of me?"

"I... you didn’t seem comfortable sleeping, so I got a towel and wiped your body a bit."

Chester suddenly stopped his actions and looked at Alice.

Alice paused, quickly explained, "Hey... don’t misunderstand, I just wiped your upper body and face, I... I..." Alice’s face flushed with embarrassment.

Fortunately, Chester didn’t dwell on this matter. He pinched his brow, "I drank a lot last night, didn’t I?"

Alice nodded.

"I didn’t say anything, did I?"

"No... you didn’t say anything."

Just as Chester was about to speak, a knock sounded at the door.

Alice said, "I’ll get the door."

The door opened, revealing Keith Antony with a big smile.

"Miss Alice, did you sleep well last night?"

Alice was momentarily taken aback, "Huh?"

Keith Antony looked mischievously towards the bedroom.

Chester had already gotten out of bed and was now getting dressed.

Alice followed Keith Antony’s gaze, looking at Chester fastening his shirt buttons, her whole body paused, her face immediately turning red-hot, "Keith Antony, don’t misunderstand, it’s not what you think..."

Keith Antony seemed unconvinced, chuckling.

"Keith Antony, it’s really not what you think, I..."

Keith Antony intercepted Alice’s words, "Miss Alice, I only came to call you and the boss down for breakfast... Of course, if you and the boss want to stay in the room a little longer, I’ll instruct the servants right away."
