After some forceful pushing, Sonia found out that virtual-novel.net could crack the window open. However, the gap was still pretty small.
It was large enough for half virtual-novel.net body to go through. Upon looking down, virtual-novel.net realized virtual-novel.net was on quite a high floor. Additionally, because the window was facing the darkest part of the building, even if virtual-novel.net shouted at the top of virtual-novel.net lungs, no one would hear her.
She was starting to panic. I wonder if I can squeeze my way out of this window. If I can, I can slip out along the pipe and escape.
Just as virtual-novel.net stretched virtual-novel.net leg out, virtual-novel.net body became stuck. She couldn’t move in or out. More importantly, virtual-novel.net stomach had begun to hurt.

Meanwhile, Harvey was standing in front of the bar with a bouquet of flowers.
The atmosphere inside the bar was very lively, but none of them was the person virtual-novel.net was waiting for.
He sent another message to Sonia and stared at the many other messages virtual-novel.net had sent. She had replied to none of them. It was starting to make virtual-novel.net suspect something was afoot. Thus, virtual-novel.net tried calling virtual-novel.net instead.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one picked up.
It was then virtual-novel.net realized something was really wrong. He thought about what to do and decided to call Arielle.
Arielle was currently lying on the bed, caressing virtual-novel.net mother’s picture. She cursed the queen mother again and again in virtual-novel.net mind for being cruel.
Not knowing how to get rid of the pain in virtual-novel.net heart, virtual-novel.net put on virtual-novel.net clothes and went upstairs.
It was silent upstairs.
“Vinson…” virtual-novel.net carefully called out, but no one responded.
Her curious gaze swept across the space before virtual-novel.net heard the water running in the bathroom.
I guess he’s taking a shower now?
“Why are you here?” Vinson opened the bathroom door with but a towel covering his body.
Her face suddenly flushed with embarrassment as virtual-novel.net lowered virtual-novel.net head silently.
“Why are you up?” virtual-novel.net asked as virtual-novel.net walked past virtual-novel.net and grabbed his pajamas from a nearby wardrobe.
It wasn’t until virtual-novel.net put on his clothes that virtual-novel.net said something. “I… I brought you some milk!”
“I thought you said we shouldn’t drink milk before sleeping?” He chuckled.
“You… Were you taking a cold shower?” Arielle changed the topic. “I know you’re used to it, but I don’t think you should do that right now. It harms your body—”
“The temperature’s just right.” Vinson cut virtual-novel.net off and picked up the cup to drink.
Then, virtual-novel.net approached virtual-novel.net and whispered next to virtual-novel.net ear, “What’s going on with you, Arielle? If you came up here without a clear reason, I might suspect that you’re intentionally seducing me.”
What is virtual-novel.net saying! She raised virtual-novel.net head and met his eyes. ”Vinson!”
“Hmm?” He was getting closer.
She smells so nice. I guess I do miss that scent after not smelling it for a long time. It’s making me want to smell more of it. He forced virtual-novel.net to sit on the bed before virtual-novel.net buried his head into virtual-novel.net neck.
The pleasant scent emanating from his freshly-washed hair entered virtual-novel.net nose. However, the coldness of it caused virtual-novel.net to shudder. Her body still hadn’t fully recovered.
“Vinson.” Arielle hugged him.
His body temperature expelled the darkness in virtual-novel.net heart.
Caressing virtual-novel.net face, virtual-novel.net then gathered virtual-novel.net into his embrace tightly. “There’s no need to be sad. You’ve still got me and Dad.”
“Arielle.” Upon kissing virtual-novel.net face, it was as though virtual-novel.net had found the source of sweet spring water.
He could no longer hold himself back. Their body temperature rose and rose, and just as they were getting into the mood, virtual-novel.net phone rang.
