YM778.TV Chapter 213 - The Opportunity Is Narrowed
"Oh no, it\'s okay," Lisa answered with a grin. The woman then chewed on the apple Oscar had just given her. The fresh and crispy taste of apples immediately filled her mouth. "This is so good, Oscar!" Lisa exclaimed spontaneously, smiling at the man sitting beside her bed.
"Just finish it, I\'ll be working soon again."
After dinner, Oscar helped Lisa clean up the dining area and plates she used and then went back to work with his laptop beside her bed. Lisa laid facing Oscar and glanced at him from her slightly ajar eyelids. As usual, the man\'s expression was serious with a furrowed forehead and knitted brows. Sometimes, seeing Oscar looking serious all the time made Lisa wonder. When would this golden-haired man look relaxed and carefree? It was as if his life was only filled with work and endless work.
At this time, Lisa was very lucky to be able to stare at Oscar\'s handsome face without provoking suspicion from the man while he was busy struggling with his laptop. Lisa deliberately pretended that her vision had not yet recovered so that she could steal an opportunity to look at him. Not only that, Lisa also wanted to test how loyal and attentive Oscar was to her since she had an accident at the office a few days ago.
Seeing Oscar\'s unmatched good looks made it even more difficult for her to sleep, but even so, Lisa\'s heart felt calm and at ease. The man with European blood seemed to be a figure protecting her so that she felt very safe to be beside him at this time. What a beautiful sight before flying into dreamland, Lisa thought.
Minutes passed, the clock already showed 12 o\'clock midnight. Oscar closed his laptop and turned off the room\'s light. He pulled a blanket that he borrowed from the hospital then dragged the chair beside Lisa\'s bed and laid his head on it. Even though the VIP room had two beds, Oscar preferred to sleep on a chair and snuggled next to Lisa.
The atmosphere of the room then became lonely and quiet. There was no hustle and bustle from outside the room except for the sound of the air conditioner and Lisa\'s steady breathing. Before going to sleep, the man looked at her face, which seemed peaceful, then stroked her cold cheek gently with a smile. He grabbed Lisa\'s cold palm then rubbed it until he fell asleep.
At this moment, Lisa\'s heart was pounding. Oscar\'s hand felt very warm, and without realizing it, Lisa moved her palm to return the gentle grasp. A sense of security and comfort came back to Lisa\'s mind. She could sleep soundly tonight.

Morning had come, revealing its bright face on the horizon. The soft sunlight hit the bedroom\'s window until it fell on the curve of Lisa\'s joyful sleeping face. Her eyes were still reluctant to open, but her hearing and touching senses woke up first. Without realizing it, Oscar was already in bed, hugging Lisa tightly since last night. Lisa was surprised when she felt the man\'s breath on the nape of her neck. Suddenly, Lisa immediately turned her body and stared at the figure of the tall man who was fast asleep, curled up beside her.
Lisa was shocked, pretty much so shocked. As far as she knew, this man fell asleep in the chair near her bed last night. But this morning, she found Oscar in her bed! Oh no, they both hugged last night! But Lisa didn\'t want to waste this opportunity. She didn\'t want to get out of bed, and instead, she adjusted her sleeping position as comfortably as possible then grasped Oscar\'s wide palm.
A golden opportunity like this didn\'t come twice, or so she thought. But not long after, someone walked into the room and screamed, waking Oscar and Lisa from their sleep.
"Lisa! Mr. Oscar! Oh, sorry, sorry! I didn\'t mean to disturb the two of you!" Andien said in a hurry, her face immediately flushed red when she saw Oscar embracing Lisa on the bed.
"Sorry Andien, I want to go out to find breakfast first," Oscar replied hastily. The man immediately got out of bed and grabbed his coat, running out of the room.
"Ndien! You... if you enter, knock or ring the bell first!" Lisa scolded irritably.
"Lis, I didn\'t see it wrong, right? Did you spend the night with my boss?" Andien asked suspiciously. Her eyebrows were linked. The woman approached Lisa and put down a plastic bag filled with food and continued, "Here, I\'ve brought you porridge. I was told by Mr. Oscar to take care of you every morning like this,"
"Huh, what are you doing?" Lisa asked back, reaching for the plastic bag filled with porridge.
"I was given compensation, my shift starts in the afternoon and then I\'ll accompany you tonight," Andien replied while stirring the porridge. "Lis, do you want to explain to me what I just saw just now?"
Hearing Andien\'s last sentence made Lisa stunned. She herself did not know when the golden haired man climbed onto the bed and hugged her all night. "Hey, I don\'t even understand when he moved next to me. I was surprised that he hugged me when I woke up earlier," Lisa answered plainly.
"Are you sure you didn\'t lie to me?" Andien asked in a nosy tone. An ignorant grin bloomed on her lips.
"Well, why the hell would I lie to you? Who do you think I am? Clara?" Lisa replied irritably. She rolled her eyes while scooping the porridge.
"As a friend, I just want you to remember, don\'t steal opportunities or take your chance at times like this. It\'s too risky! Then it\'s not like you\'re going to get the profit, you know? You could lose!" Andien explained, jokingly pushing Lisa\'s head.
Lisa clicked her tongue. "What am I, a child? You don\'t need to advise me like this!"
"Seriously, I\'m afraid you\'ll forget yourself and cross the lines from lying close to Oscar. I\'m even more scared if Oscar finally finds out that you\'re lying. You will end up losing your life, Lis!" Andien added at length.
Hearing Andien\'s explanation just now made Lisa think for a moment. What she said was true. In her own heart, Lisa had taken the opportunity in order to feel the warmth and comfort that she never got when she was married to that man. However, Lisa still wanted to use this opportunity to satisfy her desire for a sense of security and comfort that she hadn\'t felt for a long time.
"Okay, Ndien, you don\'t have to worry about me.. As long as Oscar doesn\'t know that I can actually see it, I\'m sure it will be safe!" Lisa said firmly and confidently.
