Chapter 1110: Standing Up Again
Summer Sutton made no attempt to resist, instead she embraced him with her arms, only reminding him, "Be gentle!"
Watt Bennet seemed not to heed her words; tonight Summer Sutton felt he was even a bit rough.
Actually, recently Watt has been relatively mild due to his leg injury making exertion inconvenient, compared to the former Adrian Walyon.
However, tonight he made Summer Sutton feel as though the old Adrian Walyon had possessed him; every movement was forceful, and his actions seemed much more nimble than before.
Summer Sutton was exhausted and sleepy, at this moment all she wanted was to sleep, not seriously discerning things.
By one o’clock, she was so tired she fell asleep directly.
Watt pulled the sheet over to wipe her sweat away, purely on reflex, and then picked her up intending to head to the bathroom.
With his legs already on the carpet, he stopped.
Summer Sutton was still nestled in his arms, sleeping soundly.
Tonight, she seemed truly worn out; despite the considerable movement of Watt lifting her, it didn’t wake her.
Watt’s gaze fixed on his own legs, he was lost for quite a while, and then lifted them lightly shaking them.
A motion, repeated quite a while, his gaze rigidly turned to the ointment placed on the bedside table.
The ointment Summer Sutton had been applying for him recently, Watt had never believed in.
Just lost in watching, his gaze eventually fell on Summer Sutton’s face in his arms.
After a long moment of gazing, he lowered his face, his lips landing heavily on her forehead for a kiss...
...
Summer Sutton woke up somewhat late the next day, at eight thirty.
With half an hour left until work time.
Since she moved into Watt’s villa, Watt hasn’t been leaving home very early and returning late at night, as he did at Morning Garden.
While living in this villa, nearly every morning she woke up to find him in the room.
Staring at him, Summer Sutton suddenly had a realization.
When he used to return late to Morning Garden and leave early, was it to avoid others connecting his identity to Adrian Walyon?
Summer Sutton didn’t know Watt’s reasons for avoiding returning to the Walyon Family, but since he’s been using Watt Bennet’s identity all this time, she guessed besides hiding the severity of his leg injury from her, there might be other personal reasons?
Summer Sutton understood internally, without asking more.
"Morning!" Watt greeted her, turning his face to look at her just as she awoke.
"Why didn’t you wake me up earlier?" Summer Sutton was almost late, springing up from the bed, pulling off the sheet and rushing to the bathroom.
"What does it matter if you’re late?" Watt’s disdainful voice followed her.
It’s just about deducting a bit of salary.
Anything related to money, he showed utter disdain.
Downstairs, he got the bread and yogurt Marshall Quinn had sent ready for Summer Sutton, and took her to work when she left for the office.
...
Summer Sutton’s graduation ceremony had officially started at three in the afternoon, at the Film Academy’s auditorium.
After today, it’s considered her formal departure from school and entrance into society.
She regarded today as very important, starting Friday night to prepare tomorrow’s clothes.
As she rummaged through the wardrobe for clothes, she turned to the man in the room, "Tomorrow is my graduation ceremony and party, will you come?"
She actually had mentioned this to Watt before, noticing that she placed much importance on tomorrow.
