บท 199: Can't Sleep

Ella lay in bed all night with all kinds of thoughts running through her mind.

Christian notices Ella's bad mood today. He decided to go to the bathroom and take a cold shower to relieve himself. After that, he just hugged Ella on the bed, not forcing her to make love.

The woman in his arms couldn't sleep, the drowsiness refused to come even though she had closed her eyes for a long time. Finally, Christian turns on the small lamp above the nightstand that glows orange and looks into Ella's face.

"You can't sleep?"

"Hmm..." Ella replied. "I was thinking about the past. I feel like everything is like a dream."

This was Ella's first time taking the initiative to talk about her past. Christian is quite surprised that Ella would open up and he decides to listen carefully.

"Why does it feel like a dream?" Christian lay back on the bed and wrapped his arms around Ella's waist, stroking her back gently.
