You should know that Silk City Royal Hospital caters exclusively to the ultra-wealthy.
The patients here are often accompanied by their affluent families, who usually stay in spacious villas prepared for them. These villas cover hundreds of square feet and look very comfortable.
For a delicate woman like Caitlin, staying in such a large villa alone was indeed a bit frightening.
Especially today, her emotions had been all over the place, and her aunt's constant reminders echoed in her mind, making her unconsciously rely on Berloff Reed.
Seeing Caitlin looking so pitiful, Berloff scratched the back of his head, feeling awkward. "Well, uh..."
To be honest, Berloff had trouble sleeping in unfamiliar places.
Suddenly staying in this strange villa might make it hard for him to sleep.
"Oh, Berloff, please stay and keep me company!" Caitlin clung to Berloff's arm, shaking it gently and pleading in a sweet, coquettish voice.
Hearing herself, Caitlin was startled.
This strong, independent girl had never acted so coyly toward a guy before.
Even she felt embarrassed by her own soft, alluring voice.
Berloff, on the other hand, felt his resolve weaken.
"Alright, Caitlin, I'll stay. Just let go of me, or I might not be able to control myself!"
Caitlin blushed and spat lightly, "Pfft, what do you mean you can't hold back? Berloff, what are you planning to do to me?"
Berloff Reed chuckled, "Caitlin, you're the goddess we've all admired since we were kids."
"You're beautiful, smart, talented—just perfect!"
"When you cling to my arm like this, which guy could resist?"
There are many kinds of goddesses.
Some are sexy and alluring, making you want to take them to bed.
Others are elegant and wise, making you want to marry them and spend your life together.
Without a doubt, in Berloff's eyes, Caitlin was the latter—a noble goddess to be admired from afar, not to be disrespected.
Caitlin stared at Berloff with burning eyes, shyly saying, "I'm not as great as you say.""If it weren't for you today, I... I might have been humiliated by that Tyler while trying to save my dad."
Berloff waved his hand dismissively, speaking with authority, "Caitlin, don't worry. As long as I'm here, someone like Tyler won't get his way."
"From now on, you just take care of Mr. Dorian. I'll handle everything else."
Hearing this, Caitlin's cheeks turned a deeper shade of red, and she shyly lowered her head.
To her, Berloff's words sounded like he was taking on the role of a protector, leaving her to manage the home."Caitlin, go freshen up and rest. Later, send me your clothing sizes, and I'll have Oscar bring over some outfits in the morning."
Berloff Reed's considerate arrangements made Caitlin's heart flutter even more.
An hour later, Berloff was lounging in a bathrobe in the guest room on the first floor of the villa, fiddling with his phone.
Tap, tap!
A gentle knock sounded on the door.
"Miss Caitlin, do you need something?" Berloff cleared his throat and called out.
There was a brief silence before Caitlin suddenly turned the doorknob and walked in.
Berloff looked up in surprise to see Caitlin also in a white bathrobe, but with a low neckline.
Her long, shapely legs were visible beneath the robe, smooth and alluring.
She bit her red lip and looked at Berloff with dreamy eyes, slowly walking toward the bed.
Gulp!
Berloff swallowed hard, stammering, "Caitlin, it's so late, you... you..."
Caitlin didn't respond. Under Berloff's shocked gaze, she climbed onto the large double bed and sat on top of him.
"Berloff, let me repay you tonight, okay?"
Her voice was soft and seductive, sending a shiver down Berloff's spine.
"This... I... You..."
Berloff Reed's eyes widened in shock, completely taken aback by Caitlin's sudden appearance.
The goddess of his school days, the top student who was always out of reach, suddenly showing up in the middle of the night and throwing herself at him—this was too much to handle!
Caitlin had come over, heart pounding and filled with anxiety. She was worried that Berloff might reject her outright, leaving them both in an awkward situation. She was also afraid that he might lose control and take advantage of her.
But seeing Berloff's shy and flustered reaction, Caitlin felt a wave of relief wash over her. She couldn't help but laugh softly. Who would've thought that despite being so wealthy now, Berloff was still so innocent and bashful? It was truly adorable!
Looking at Berloff's handsome face, Caitlin bit her lip and giggled, leaning in to plant a gentle kiss on his lips."Berloff, tonight, I'm yours."
"It's my first time, so please be gentle with me!"
Berloff's eyes widened even more, and he took a deep breath, his mind a whirlwind of confusion.
"Am I taking advantage of her?"
"But Caitlin is the one making the move here."
"Wait, Caitlin, such a beautiful and accomplished girl, is still a virgin? Is this for real?"
"If I go along with this, I'll be her first man, won't I?""Damn! Should I go for it or not?"
Berloff Reed's face was a mix of emotions, unsure of what to do.
"Hehe!" At that moment, Caitlin gave Berloff a sultry look. "Berloff, tonight you have to decide whether to be a beast or worse than a beast. Think it over carefully."
Damn!
Sharing a bed with a beautiful woman, the classic dilemma of being a beast or worse than a beast—Berloff had heard that joke before.
Since the goddess herself was being so forward and open, why should Berloff hesitate?
"Caitlin, you asked for this! Here I come..."
With that, the long-restrained Berloff took his time, step by step, conquering his childhood goddess, Caitlin.
...
A night of passion.
The next morning, when Caitlin woke up in Berloff's arms, she found him gazing at her with a look full of affection.
"Caitlin, you're so beautiful!"
Caitlin's cheeks flushed slightly, and she playfully scolded, "You naughty guy, you're so bad!"
Berloff chuckled, gently caressing Caitlin's soft, fair shoulder.
"You can only blame yourself for being too irresistible, Caitlin!"
Caitlin gave Berloff Reed a playful glare as she struggled out of his embrace.
"I still need to go to the hospital to cover for my aunt. Let's get up."
Caitlin staggered into the bathroom, while Berloff looked at the red mark on the white sheets, smiling with immense satisfaction.
Tsk tsk, the academic goddess admired by countless classmates was now his. What a sweet victory.
