“I’ll have Marsh recruit a maid tomorrow,” Reyes asked, “Shall I take a look at it for you today?”
Marsh was the butler’s name.
Toya gave him a look of interest.
Reyes’s eyes didn’t wander. He looked very serious.
She teased him on purpose. “Sure, shall we go to your room or mine?”
Because she had been standing at the door for some time, she was much more awake than when she first came out. Her expression changed from sleepy to lazy and casual.
She tilted her head and smiled at him.
Reyes’s face instantly burned. With her slightly raised voice, she was clearly trying to seduce him.
She said this ambiguously.
He was distracted by his beating heart and fled under Toya’s teasing gaze.
Looking at Reyes’s back, Toya was in a good mood.
She felt that her son would dislike her even more in the future.
He might even complain to his father, Butler, that she was a bad woman.
If a bad woman was good, she would be a bad woman.
She was in a good mood.
She returned to her room and thought about it happily for a while. She couldn’t help but yawn.
She was so sleepy.
It was time to sleep.
Dong dong dong.
The knock came again.
Toya thought that it was Reyes.
She didn’t want to bother with him. Logically speaking, Reyes should have obediently returned to his room after she had teased him. There was no reason for him to knock on her door again.
It was just that this time, Reyes’s attitude when he knocked on the door was clearly different from the first time.
The first time was because he wanted to see her and apologize to her. He had knocked on the door very softly. If she had not opened the door, he would have returned to his room.
This time, he brought medicine with him to treat the wound on her shoulder. He wouldn’t stop until he saw her.
So not long after, he knocked again.
The knocking was not soft.
Toya, who opened the door, didn’t look pleased.
Her hair looked like it had been tousled. It looked even messier than before.
The strap of the negligee also slid down a little.
But Reyes couldn’t see any of this. He took his blindfold and put it on while he waited outside the door.
He held a small transparent bottle in his left hand. The bottle was filled with a light brown liquid and he held a pair of white gloves in his right hand.
When he heard the door open, he thought about Butler’s usual demeanor and tried to make himself look more decent.
“Can I apply medicine for you now?”
Toya was stunned by his appearance.
The anger from wanting to sleep but being disturbed dissipated.
Her attitude softened. “What are you doing?”
Reyes said seriously, “I’ll help you apply the medicine.”
Toya opened the door helplessly. “Alright, since you’re so filial, I can’t spoil your fun.”
Reyes was speechless.
These words were quite disappointing.
There was a hint of unhappiness in his serious expression.
“But you’re wearing an eye mask. How do you know where to apply the medicine? And your white gloves suck water, right? What if it sucks the medicine away while you apply it?”
Reyes was very proactive. “I’ll find a waterproof glove.”
Anyway, he had to deal with the wound on Toya’s shoulder today.
Toya grabbed him. “Never mind. Just use your hand.”
She tousled her long hair that was draped over her shoulders and said frankly, “It’s just my shoulder. It can be touched.”
Reyes didn’t insist. He took off his blindfold and followed Toya into her room.
When she opened the door, she only turned on the bedside lamp. The room was very dark.
When she brought Reyes through the door, she turned on the ceiling light.
She turned around and saw him walk in foolishly. She frowned and reminded him, “Close the door.”
Reyes obeyed and closed the door behind him.
During this season, the entire villa was air-conditioned and it was very cool.
The air-conditioning in Toya’s room was also on, but it was slightly warmer than outside.
This room was adjacent to Reyes’s room. The layout of the two rooms was similar. It was just that as a girl’s room, the decor here was too masculine.
It seemed that apart from getting Marsh to hire a few maids tomorrow, he would have to get him to buy some new furniture.
There was an armchair and a small coffee table in the room. “Move the sofa to the bed.”
Reyes was unusually behaving and didn’t ask why she was moving the couch.
After the sofa was moved, Toya was already lying on the bed. Her hair was tidied up and her shoulders were exposed.
“It’s more convenient for you to sit on the couch.”
Reyes said nothing. His gaze darkened.
He thought, maybe he should put the blindfold on.
He felt his body getting aroused, and he couldn’t help but drool when he saw Toya lying flat on her stomach.
He wanted to bang her so badly.
“Hurry up, I’m going to sleep.” Toya was extremely sleepy and couldn’t help but yawn.
Reyes sobered a little. He sat down and examined the bruise on her shoulder.
It was slightly bigger than what he saw outside. It reached from her shoulder to her shoulder blade and was slightly swollen.
Reyes’s heart tightened, and he lost all lustful thoughts..
