Chapter 110 I'll Sleep Here
The four walls of the villa were made of glass.
The villa overlooked the lake on three sides. There was a wooden bridge over the lake.
The inside of the villa had a simple light-colored design of modern style. There was an open kitchen, a
spacious living room, and a bedroom.
Yes, there was only a bedroom.
Catalina walked around two times and confirmed that.
At this moment, Bennett was working in the living room.
He seemed to have tons of work.
Catalina frowned and stood at the bedroom door. She glanced inside and looked at Bennett. In the end,
she couldn't help saying, "There seems to be only one bedroom."
"Yes."
Bennett said curtly and flipped through the file in his hands.
"How should we sleep?"
"I think the bed is big enough."
Catalina was speechless.
Was it a matter of the size of the bed?
Catalina said helplessly, "There is only one bed, but there are two of us."
"I think I've made it clear to you."
Bennett finally looked up from the file and glanced at her. "The bed is big enough for the two of us."novelbin
Catalina widened her eyes in disbelief, "Do you mean we are going to sleep in the same bed?"
"I won't have any objections if you want to sleep on the floor or on the sofa."
Bennett lowered his head again.
Catalina was speechless.
She didn't want to sleep on the floor or on the sofa.
Catalina decided not to talk about this with him for the time being. Anyway, it was too early to sleep.
It was bright outside.
Catalina found it curious.
They set off in the afternoon and took a flight for five hours. She fell asleep in the car later. It should be
late now.
Catalina looked up at the clock on the wall.
"It's nine o'clock at night. Why is it so bright outside?"
Catalina said in disbelief.
"The sun sets after 10 pm and rises at 3 am."
"The sun sets after 10 pm and rises at 3 am?"
Catalina leaned against the glass wall and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the sun setting. "This city is
wonderful. Don't we just need to sleep three or four hours a day?"
If they only slept for three or four days, one day would seem long.
Three days with Bennett would be longer than she had thought.
"That's great!"
The glass wall reflected Catalina's bright smile. "I like it here. It's like a paradise."
Bennett turned his head and looked at the girl leaning against the wall.
The setting sun cast an orange glow in his cold eyes, which seemed to glint with warmth.
"Bennett, what's that?"
Catalina found a sacred place in the yard.
She pointed excitedly at the old Sophora tree outside the window. "There is a tree house up there. Can
I go up and take a look?"
"Yes."
Bennett replied, "But you must..."
Before he finished, she shot out of his sight.
Bennett shook his head helplessly.
He looked down at the file in his hand again and whispered his unsaid words, "Be careful."
He heard Catalina laughing in the yard.
Bennett couldn't read a word on the file.
After he forced himself to read for a while, he gave up.
He closed the file and went out of the villa.
Catalina had climbed onto the old tree by a ladder.
She sat in the wooden tree house and dangled her legs, looking down at Bennett, who stood at the
door and looked up at her.
"Have you finished your work?"
Catalina asked him from high above.
Bennett nodded.
Catalina said with a smile, "Have you ever been up to the tree house? There is a small bed for a
person. I've decided to sleep here tonight."
As she spoke, she patted the mattress next to her and crawled onto it, lying down and poking out her
head. "I think it's cozy here. There are many books. I'll go down for a shower and come back here to
read some books before I go to sleep."
"Aren't you afraid of insects there?"
Bennett looked up at her and asked.
"No."
Catalina pointed at the corner of the tree house. "The insects have been dealt with here. I checked. It's
clean."
Bennett pressed his lips tightly with a sullen face.
If he had known about this, he would have had the tree house repaired.
Catalina said in the tree house, "I guess you can't come up here. Although the insects have been
eliminated, what if there are still insects? You're afraid of insects..."
Bennett's face darkened.
"You can sleep there if you like, but the weather forecast says there will be rain and thunders early in
the morning."
After Bennett spoke, he turned to leave.
Catalina got surprised at the tree house. "Really? Are you kidding me? It's a clear day. How can it rain?
Bennett..."
He had entered the villa and ignored her.
Catalina took out her phone and glanced at the weather forecast.
It was a clear day.
Did he think he could scare her?
Catalina stayed in the tree house for a while. When the sun set down, she went back to the villa
reluctantly.
Back at the villa, dinner was ready, and the dishes were dainty as usual.
Catalina was starving, and her stomach rumbled. She wanted to gulp down the food, but she slowed
down quietly when she saw Bennett eating gracefully.
She asked Bennett, "Do you come here on business?"
As she spoke, she put a cherry tomato in her mouth.
Bennett looked up at her.
There was a complicated look in his eyes.
After that, he said lightly, "Yes."
"I don't think you have time to hang out with me. You look busy. If you don't have time, tomorrow I'll..."
"I have time."
Catalina was interrupted by Bennett.
She blinked.
After a long while...
"Okay."
She put some salad in her mouth.
She felt inexplicably sweet.
Bennett's ear turned red unnoticeably.
After dinner, Catalina took a shower and returned to the tree house.
Bennett didn't stop her.
He had no reason to do that.
Lying in the big bed and putting his hands under the pillow, Bennett was wide awake.
Through the French window, he could see everything in the tree house on the old Sophora tree.
There was no door or window in the tree house. The light was on, and Catalina sat with crossed legs,
holding a thick book.
Bennett guessed she was reading a novel. Otherwise, she wouldn't be reading it with relish.
She was holding some Sophora flower petals in her hand. She put the petals to her nose and sniffed
softly from time to time.
Looking at her in the distance, Bennett swallowed hard. After a long time, he forced himself to look
away.
Did he have to only look at her from afar forever like this?
Bennett thought, "Catalina, why did you have to get involved with Warren?"
