Axel's gaze stayed fixed on hers, steady and calm.
"You mean I interrupted your beauty sleep?" Before she could explode, he added quickly, "I'm really sorry. I promise I'll remember next time."
Evelyn opened her mouth but then closed it again, completely speechless.
He continued to make her less angry, "Don't worry, I didn't disturb his sleep. My chef cooked everything downstairs and just delivered it here. And I know he is already awake..."
Evelyn narrowed her gaze on him. But, inwardly, she was torn between ignoring him and scolding him.
"Don't be upset. I hope you can take it a bit easier today. This is your special day, after all!"
It was amusing to watch Axel Knight try to ease her anger.
She wasn't completely mad at him, but she didn't like how he did something before consulting her first.
"Axel, you know what? Only you would turn my apartment into a five-star hotel."
A corner of his lips curved again to form a smile when he saw her finally smile.
