Chapter 251 - Friedrich & Hannah's Agreement (2)

"Please stop fighting. The important thing is now that you two have made an agreement. Tonight you must sleep in the same room. I'll let you know when Valentino has landed at Seattle airport so you can get ready," Sebastian said.

Friedrich was about to give up his goodwill of helping Hannah because of the girl's attitude earlier, but in the end, he gave in. After all, he had also told his brother that he would not be coming home that night.

Friedrich decided to keep his promise and left Diane's mansion as soon as morning arrived. 

The party ended at 1 am, and all the guests went home one by one with their chauffeur. Friedrich had told Laura that he was staying back with his "new friend," and she seemed delighted. Laura winked mischievously at Friedrich and slipped a pack of condoms into the man's pocket.

"Safety first," she whispered with a chuckle. She then waved to everyone and left with graceful steps. Laura always managed to look elegant even though she was already half-drunk from drinking too much and having fun with her friends at parties. 

Fortunately, the Atlas family's trusted chauffeur was used to dealing with her antics, so Friedrich didn't worry about letting her go home without him. After Laura left, he reached into his pocket to find out what object she had just put in there.

His face winced as he felt the condom and realized its contents. Ugh ...

"Come on, it's already late," said Aurora suddenly. "I'm sleepy. We better sleep now and regain our energy. Tomorrow, things will be messy..."

She pushed Hannah and Friedrich to walk together towards the stairs. The two people glanced at each other and then walked away reluctantly.

"You promised ... Don't back down on your words," Hannah snapped, pursing her lips. She had seen Friedrich's reluctance. "If you back down now, I'll hate you for the rest of my life. I should have had to hire one of those gigolos."

Friedrich tapped the girl on the forehead and rolled his eyes. "I never break promises. But watch out, you must not take advantage of me while I'm sleeping."

It was Hannah's turn to roll her eyes. She stomped her feet and walked up the stairs. The girl looked back and signaled for Friedrich to follow her. "Come to my room. Don't walk like a snail!"

"Ish ... you really can't wait to sleep with me?" quipped Friedrich. 

Nevertheless, he followed Hannah's long steps to the second floor.

They walked down a beautiful hallway on the second floor and then into a room on the left. It was 1.30 am.

"Oh, no ... I drank too much," complained Hannah as she sat on the pretty chair beside the bed and took off her shoes. "Please make yourself comfortable. I'll wash up and then sleep."

Friedrich only watched the girl's movements. Hannah seemed still very alert even though she drank quite a lot of wine and cocktails at the party. This girl indeed can drink, Friedrich thought.

He then sat on a chair and took off his shoes. Hannah came out of the bathroom a few moments later with one hand holding a toothbrush and the other carrying a robe and slippers.

"This is for you," said the girl as she put the items next to Friedrich, after which she returned to the bathroom.

Ten minutes later, the girl came out with a face that looked clean and fresh without any makeup. Her body was wrapped in a robe similar to the one she had given to Friedrich.

"You can use the bathroom now. There's a new toothbrush next to the faucet. I will go to sleep now. I have set the alarm for 6 am. Sebastian said Valentino will arrive at around 7. We have to start acting before he comes."

Friedrich noticed Hannah's bare face and quietly praised the girl's beauty. Hannah looked very charming even though she didn't have any makeup on. Even a big yawn didn't make her look less beautiful, Friedrich thought.

"Later, when you're going to sleep, please turn off the lights," said the girl as she climbed into bed. She yawned again, then put the blanket over her. Not long after, she fell asleep.

Just like that? thought Friedrich. Hannah seemed to sleep easily, making him jealous. Friedrich usually needed to read a book and meditate before he could calm his busy mind and then sleep.

After observing the girl for a while, Friedrich finally cleaned himself in the bathroom. He changed his clothes into the robe that Hannah had given him.

Ah ... it feels funny, wearing the same robe like this, Friedrich thought. They looked like husband and wife.

He then climbed into bed and got under Hannah's blanket. Pulling the blanket over his chest, Friedrich turned his head to the side. He saw Hannah sleeping very soundly with her lips slightly parted.

Jeez ...

Somehow Friedrich felt his chest was suddenly pounding

Friedrich watched Hannah for a moment and then closed his eyes, trying to follow suit. Ah, if he could sleep as quickly as Hannah, he would be delighted.

After half an hour of failing to bring himself to sleep, Friedrich got out of bed and took his tablet. He decided to read some office documents he had to sign next week.

Gradually his body became more and more tired. He then put away the tablet and then tried to meditate to calm his mind. 

Somehow, tonight, reading doesn't help to make me sleepy, Friedrich thought a little irritatedly. He then cleared his mind and stared at the ceiling. Ten minutes later, he took a deep breath and lay down beside Hannah.

He looked at the girl again. Hmm .. looks like Hannah is dreaming, he thought.

Friedrich saw Hannah frown with her eyes still closed. Her lips let out an indistinct whisper. The longer Friedrich watched Hannah's expression, the more convinced he was that the girl was having a nightmare.

"Don't ... No, Valentino ... you can't ... I don't want to marry you! Ahh .."

Friedrich watched Hannah closely.. In his heart, he wondered why the girl seemed to hate Valentino so badly that she even had nightmares about him.
