Valerie looked like she was still asleep but she was conscious of his presence and that was why she spoke her mind.
The stench on him was repulsive so she turned her head to the other side.
Max sniffed his hand. He came to her room as soon as he got back, so he probably had Lucy's harsh perfume on him.
Ugh, this was why he avoided touching her as much as possible but she was so clingy.
He looked at her and saw Valerie had fallen asleep again. it seems she had no plans of opening her eyes even when she knew he was there. Or it could be that because he was there that she felt she could go back to sleep without worrying.
He smirked. What a wonder she was.
He got up from the bed and went to his room. He took a shower, making sure he got rid of all traces of another lady on him.
Once he was done, he came back to her room and sat down to keep watching her sleep.
