That night, her dreams reflected her daytime thoughts. On the fourth night of Bennett's trip, she dreamt of him, and she kept staring at him in her dream.

In her dream, Bennett regarded her with a soft smile, asking if she missed him. She denied it, but he didn't believe her, his eyebrows arching in doubt as he asked, "Really?" Then, in an unexpected twist, she found herself kissing Bennett.

Waking with a start, Claudia licked her lips involuntarily.

The dryness reminded her that it was merely a dream.

Sitting up and blushing at the memory, she wondered if she was indeed getting bolder just like Aurora.

In the past, she had only dreamt of hugging and kissing Bennett. This time, she'd even dreamt of having sex with him!

A pinch to herself and Claudia's thoughts were back to reality.

“Stop it!" she chastised herself.

"You can't think about this!"

Then her phone rang, pulling her back to the present.

She turned off the alarm and went into the bathroom, splashed her face with cold water, and then stared at her flushed reflection.

“Oh my God! Why is my face so red?" After washing her face and calming down, Claudia went downstairs to have breakfast.

Marcia had prepared the meal, and thinking of her noon appointment with Aurora, Claudia said, "Marcia, you can leave after this. I won't be eating Lunch or dinner at home."

Marcia was naturally pleased to have her day off.

“Really? Do you want me to make something and keep it in the fridge in case you get hunger later at night?"

Claudia smiled and waved her off. "No need. Eating late at night will make me gain weight!"

“Alright, I'll Leave after doing the dishes."

“Okay!"

Claudia agreed, picking up her phone to text Aurora. She accidentally sent it to Bennett instead and quickly canceled it.

Since it was so early in the morning, he couldn't have seen it, right?

The next second, a message from Bennett arrived, containing nothing but a question mark.

Claudia felt so embarrassed. Could she act as if she hadn't seen it?

Her hand trembled as she held the phone, staring at Bennett's message with a simple question mark.

The night before Aurora went to bed, she had sent Claudia a video of the bar, exclaiming, "Join me to admire handsome men tomorrow."
