Chapter 151 - You Shouldnt Have Done That (2/2)

”Yeah. I am just tired.” She replied, snuggling against him.

”You should just sleep then.” Adam murmured softly next to her ear, running his fingers through the long locks of her hair.

They had returned back from the party half an hour ago. After freshening up and changing into their sleepwear, the couple was lying down on the bed. Stella had her head resting on his bare chest, her ear pressed against the toned muscles, right over his heart.

”You should sleep as well. You haven't slept properly since last week. Do you think I won't know about your sneaking out of the room after I have slept?” Stella narrowed her eyes at him.

She had woken up in the middle of the night a few times throughout the last week due to the absence of his warmth. And every single time, she had found him in his study, working on his laptop.

”I knew you were the one peeping inside the study before leaving after sneaking a glance at me.” Adam chuckled lightly.

”You knew I was there?” Stella asked him, furrowing her delicate brows.

”Yeah.” Adam nodded as his fingers found their way to her face. He moved them over her eyebrows, trying to smoothen the frown. ”Why didn't you come inside?” He asked her.

”I didn't want to disturb your work.” She replied as rubbed her face over hai chest.

”You can never disturb me babygirl.” Adam added softly as he pressed a kiss on the top of her head. ”Sleep now.”

”Don't go sneaking out of the room today. I can't sleep without you.” She mumbled softly as a yawn escaped her lips.

”I won't.” Adam heaved out a sigh. If he had known that his absence was disturbing her sleep, he wouldn't have sneaked out all those nights to finish off his pending work. Even though he made sure to make her hug his pillow before leaving, he didn't know her sleep would still be disturbed. He had felt someone peeking inside his study a couple of times and thought that she was just checking on him.

He pressed another kiss against her forehead before closing his own eyes.

”What did you say?” Taylor roared at the man who was standing before him, clad in an all black dress.

The man didn't even flinch. Being the main informant for him, he was used to this. He kept standing quietly with his head bowed down in respect.

”Why is he back? Isn't he supposed to hate that life just like his father? Why did he took over the reins?” Taylor was still yelling.

”You shouldn't have done that Adam Levinson. You shouldn't have.” He spoke to no one in particular before an evil laughter escaped his lips.
