Chapter 173

Neera was speechless. I can't be wearing Jean's robes again, right?

It was as if Jean heard her thoughts and walked over to the wardrobe quietly. He then took a black shirt andhanded it to her. "Just make do and wear this tonight."

Neera looked at the clothes and felt speechless. What's with all this…

Their marriage was only an act, but why did it seem like they had done it all now?

Neera gave up as she took the shirt and walked into the bathroom.

At first, Jean did not think much about it. However, when Neera came out in the shirt, he was taken aback.

Although Neera was not short, she was considered petite compared to Jean. This caused the black shirt to lookextra long on her as it reached her thighs. It felt like she was wearing a boyfriend's shirt.

Her long, slim legs were exposed, making her look seductive…

Jean felt his throat turn dry as he thought that letting Neera wear this shirt was a serious mistake. However, hecould no longer correct this mistake.

He could only retract his gaze and say in a low voice, "It's getting late, so get to bed."

For some reason, Neera thought that the atmosphere felt weird. She then pointed at the bed and suggested, "Youcan sleep on the bed. In your situation, it's better not to sleep on the couch in case any problems arise tomorrow.Besides, I don't like fighting for the bed with a patient."

She walked toward the couch as she spoke and sat down on it without waiting for Jean's reply.

For some reason, it was as if he was processed as his mind was filled with the previous scene. He even felt hisadrenaline flowing.

Upon noticing his strange thoughts, he frowned.

It was chaos when he and Neera fell into the bathtub together last time, so he could still blame her if he lostcontrol and accidentally touched her. However, why was he like this when he had only taken a look at her?

He had always thought he had good self-control and could endure it. Yet, why had he been losing control when itcame to this woman?

As he was in puzzlement, Neera tossed and turned on the couch, unable to fall asleep.

She had always been straightforward and would not be petty with trivial matters. However, she had been havingan indescribable, weird feeling in her heart.

Thinking about the man's gaze, she felt her heart itch.

In the past, it would be impossible for a man to stay in the same room as her. However, ever since she met Jean,all kinds of incredible things happened one after another.

This man must be a jinx to her!

Neera kept comforting herself to prevent herself from overthinking. She gradually calmed down and finally fellasleep.

On the other hand, Jean still could not sleep. When he heard the steady breathing coming from the other side, hecould not help but sigh.

This woman was really bold! After all, although she was alone at night with a man with normal needs, she couldstill sleep this well!

Jean had always been a light sleeper, so he would wake up easily if there was any noise.

At midnight, Jean heard faint knocks on the door and immediately woke up. He then walked toward the door tocheck it out…
