The sudden vibration of the phone interrupted Easton Holmes's uncontrollable desire, and his rationality slowly returned at that moment.
In regaining his senses, he felt immense regret. If the phone hadn't suddenly rung, he dared not imagine what could have happened next; the consequences would have been severe.
He quickly released the woman in his arms, lay down to the side, and distanced himself from her.
"We'd better keep some distance for now," he said, even though he didn't want it this way. But for her and the child's safety, he had to endure this torment.
"Then I'll go sleep in the guest room."
Hearing Easton Holmes say they should keep their distance, Lily Turner immediately suggested she sleep in the guest room. She felt it was the only safe option since he had been restraining himself for two months, and she wasn't oblivious to it.
Sharing the same bed, situations like what just happened were bound to arise, and she couldn't control them, let alone stop him.
