Here, in the master bedroom upstairs.

Asher Land tossed Sophie Smith onto the bed, just about to do something, but Sophie dodged.

"Go take a shower first."

Asher chuckled lightly, shook his head, and then walked into the bathroom.

Sophie got off the bed and walked to the adjacent walk-in closet.

She hesitantly opened the wardrobe, which was filled with the lingerie and uniforms Eva Miller had bought for her last time...

Sophie glanced at the items with a bit of embarrassment, as two different voices inside her were yelling.

One said to throw those things away. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Another whispered to wear them for Asher Land.

Oh, what should she do?

Suddenly, she remembered Eva Miller’s usual ’teachings’ in her ear. Eva always told her earnestly, Sophie, sometimes giving your bed partner a little surprise or thrill is never wrong, especially for a man as passionate as President Land.

Asher stepped out of the bathroom after his shower, not seeing Sophie anywhere. Damn it, she wouldn’t have escaped again, would she?

Asher walked out of the master bedroom to hunt her down, noticing the guest room’s door was ajar. Without thinking much, he pushed the door open and went inside.

Upon hearing the door open, Sophie was startled, turned around with her hand on her chest, looking startled.

"Why’d you run here?" Asher approached her, shirtless, water droplets sliding down his abs.

Sophie stared at Asher standing in the doorway for a long time before remembering something.

"You... You should leave first." She pointed at the door.

"What the heck are you up to, Sophie?" Asher shrugged, intending to hug her, but then glimpsed at the clothes on the bed.

"Choosing clothes in the middle of the night?"

"Well..." Sophie tried to cover up in panic, "It’s nothing, just browsing."

With that, she turned, bent down to tidy up the clothes on the bed, but Asher quickly grabbed her hand.

"What clothes? Let me see..."

"There’s really nothing, just go out first. I’ll tidy up then return to the master bedroom."

The more Asher looked, the more he felt something was off. With a little force, he pulled her aside, his gaze sweeping to the bed, but when he saw the pile of clothes...

A deep smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Sophie, wear it for me."

"No, I’m not wearing it... Anyway, even if I did, you’d just take it off, so I won’t wear it."

Being caught by Asher while choosing such clothes, it was truly embarrassing.

"Put it on, maybe I’ll consider not taking off your clothes tonight?"

The visual impact she’d bring wearing those clothes made his blood rush.

Sophie absolutely hated herself, she was practically digging a hole for herself to jump into.

She wanted to act like nothing had happened and walk out, but Asher grabbed her wrist.

"I like the police and... the nurse outfit, you decide."

"You..." Sophie blushed deeply, "I don’t like any outfit."

"If you don’t like them, why buy so many?" He stared at her blushing cheeks with interest.

Feeling like he had seen through her thoughts, Sophie’s embarrassment became even more evident, "Those weren’t bought by me, they were... they were..."

"Even if you didn’t buy them, it doesn’t matter, because now they’re in front of me, so..."
