Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson)

Chapter 1083

Ever since Phoebe regained consciousness, this was the first time she had seen Howard look so sad. Recognizing her own fault this time, she softened her tone.

“Forget it. Let’s drop the matter. | went out without telling you beforehand, which made you worry, so | apologize.” Hearing her admission, Howard forced a smile.

“Phoebe, that’s really good to hear. Next time, you must tell me before leaving. Bring two bodyguards for protection and send me a message, okay?”

Phoebe remained silent..

Having two bodyguards around all the time and constantly watching her every move made her feel uncomfortable. However, seeing Howard's gloomy expression, she agreed.

“I'll send you a message and inform you where I’m going, but about the bodyguards... can we play it by ear? Like today, when I'm just hanging out with Sheena, having two people watching would make me feel

uncomfortable.”

She compromised on one condition and rejected another.

It was a give—and-take situation.

Howard was already satisfied that she had agreed to inform him beforehand.

“Okay. Let’s go with that.”

With the matter settled, Phoebe stood by awkwardly as Howard continued gazing at her.

Remembering unfinished tasks for the night, she cautiously asked, “So, are you still planning to go over study materials tonight?”

Howard met her gaze, sensing her unease and hesitation, and asked, “Do you want to do that?”

Phoebe hesitated momentarily before admitting. “I've been out of it all day, and | don’t feel ready for studying. If we study, | definitely won't be able to focus.”

Remembering Sheena mentioning Phoebe’s struggle with foundational knowledge and advising him to be patient, Howard acted reasonably and pulled Phoebe closer to him.

“In that case, no studying tonight/Let's give you a break.”

Relieved to hear this, Phoebe felt a weight lift off her shoulders and smiled radiantly.

“Thank you, Mr. Howard. I'll make sure to study well tomorrow.”

Howard pondered for a moment and suggested, “How about this? Starting tomorrow, when | return from work in the evening, instead of immediately studying, I'll spend half an hour tutoring you before quizzing you. How does that sound?”

Phoebe looked at him with a hint of worry. “Mr. Howard, you’re busy during the day. Won't that be too exhausting for you if you tutor me for the entrance exam at night?”

Howard clasped her hands lightly. “If you’re worried about me being too tired, why not let me sleep with you at night? Let me hold you, and we'll fall asleep together every night. I'll definitely have a good rest.

Can we do that?”

Well...

For Phoebe, it had only been a little over half a month since she regained consciousness, meaning she had only known Howard for about the same period.

They were practically strangers.

In just over ten days, they went from being acquaintances to sharing meals and living arrangements. Now, he was suggesting they sleep together every night.

It felt weird just thinking about it, sending shivers down her spine.

“I'm getting ahead of myself, and my expectations were too rushed. If you don’t want to, then let’s forget | mentioned it.”

Phoebe eased into it. “Thank you, Mr. Howard. | really appreciate it. When | become financially. independent, I'll definitely repay you for your kindness.”

Howard was momentarily taken aback. Was she offering to compensate him with money?

As a prominent figure in the entertainment industry, one of the heirs to the Lawson family’s fortune, her certainly was not in need of money.

“In the future, if you want to compensate me with money, I'll pass. | prefer...”

To have you instead, Howard finished the sentence in his mind.

Nonetheless, he did not say that, as he did not want to scare his sweet girl, and he just fantasized for a moment.

“Alright, it's getting late. Should we get ready for bed?”
