Caught off guard, Claudia hurriedly closed Twitter.

Bennett, having just discarded the towel, fixed her with a deep, inscrutable gaze. "Could pigs get married now?" he couldn't help but ask.

In the face of those penetrating eyes, Claudia's mind went blank, she was unable to tell a lie.

After staring at him for a brief moment, she yanked the quilt over her head, saying, “I'm going to sleep.”

Bennett looked at her, a smile unfolding on his face. He flicked off the light and settled beside her.

In the darkness, since she couldn't see anything, the other senses became keener in an instant.

The scent of Bennett's body wash, identical to her own, filled her nostrils, his breathing drawing nearer and nearer.

In the next instant, she found herself enveloped in his embrace, his breath warm against her ear.

Claudia's fingers tightened on the quilt, her mind racing, wondering if he heard the ridiculous news or not.

When she was thinking about this question, she heard Bennett saying, “Claudia, no need to worry. I won't pretend to work overtime because of too many sexual intercourses."

What was he on about?

That odd news piece was just that, nothing more!

She hadn't intended any of it, really!

Claudia's head was throbbing. He really did hear it!

It was utterly embarrassing! Pretending to be asleep seemed her best option!

Bennett was aware she wasn't asleep; her own hands had just tugged the quilt.

Yet she remained silent. After a pause, he planted a kiss, murmuring, “Good night!"

Claudia wished he could fall asleep as soon as possible.

The silent room was very quiet. With her eyes shut, Claudia drifted into slumber quickly.

Perhaps it was because she had watched some absurd news before going to bed that she ended up having a very ridiculous dream.

In her dream, she undressed Bennett and tied him up, before performing a pole dance right before his eyes.

Dancing, she questioned him, “Are you going to use work as an excuse to deceive me again?"

Bennett, who was tied up, remained silent, just staring at her intently.

Seeing him like this, she raised her hand and took off her clothes.
