Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 358

We stayed at The Knight’s House, a very old hotel, and Eric booked two rooms for this hour. After

leaving our luggage in the room, Eric took me on a tour of Heidelberg.

He seemed to be particularly fond of Heidelberg, taking me to all the main buildings and streets. We

climb to the top of Heidelberg Palace and look out over the entire city. We then strolled along the River

Neckar and enjoyed the view at the bridgehead of the Old Bridge. Standing on the bridge, you could

see the pinnacle of the Church of the Holy Spirit.

In the end, he took me to the Church of the Holy Spirit. He was visibly much more reticent now; since

we arrived in Heidelberg he rarely spoke. When we entered the Church of the Holy Spirit, he stood in

the doorways in silence, looking at the church gates. His expression was a mask of stillness I’d never

seen before, tinged with a hint of sadness. I had never seen such an expression on him before, but for

some reason, sadness seeped into me Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

as well.

In the evening, Eric took me to a bar for a drink. This was the first time I’d seen him drink in the last two

days. He was a heavy drinker, polishing drink after drink. Jenny said he has gastritis because he had

too much to drink because of a woman. So I instinctively reached out to stop him from drinking more,

but he grabbed my hand instead and stared into my eyes. We were very close, so I could see that his

black eyes were filled with anguish.

He is very disheartened. I could tell he was heartbroken. After all, he had been playing the song ‘I Can’t

Change’ non-stop since we left for Heidelberg, although I had no idea why he was so

melancholy. Everyone has their own secrets. It doesn’t seem like he’s really his appearance, cold and

licentious. Rather, he is also a flesh-and-blood man who has feelings.

Eric was drunk, but very quiet, not rambling or struggling. He simply stared at me wordlessly, allowing

me to support him and lead him back to his room. His gaze looked extremely blank as he lay on the

bed in silence and watched as I helped him take off his shoes and dry his face. Then I opened his

luggage and found his gastritis medicine before pouring him a glass of water and helping him take his

medicine. After that, I helped him to lie down again.

Holding my hand, he lay motionless on the bed, saying nothing. I didn’t dare go back to my room and

leave him like that, so I sat in his room to watch over him. After looking at the ceiling for a long time, he

finally closed his eyes and fell asleep. I then wanted to withdraw my hand, but he opened his eyes

abruptly and again stared at me, so I had no choice but to remain sitting there quietly.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Eric once again closed his eyes and dozed off. This time,

however, I didn’t dare move, I just sat on the side of the bed and watched his sleeping face. He looks

really harmless in his sleep. Staring dazedly into his incredibly seductive face, my thoughts came to a

screech. Later, I too succumbed to bedside sleep.

My sleep was extremely uncomfortable as half of my arm was numb and sore. When I woke up, it was

already dawn. Eric was still asleep, so I gently moved my arm, only to see his eyes pop open

instantly. Upon seeing me, he was stunned for a moment. ‘Why are you here?’
