GoodNovelChapter 1163:
Philip probed, “So, how'd it go? Armando toldhis daughter seems pretty interested in you.”
Cliff shrugged. “I don’t really feel anything special.”
Philip sighed. “What's your type, then?”
Without thinking, Cliff blurted out, “Miss Burke is nice, but | prefer someone mature and wise.”
Madison chimed in, “You're already boring enough. If you find someone mature, how dull would that be? Look at
Laney, all sweet and pretty in her pink dress, so charming.”
Laney blushed. “Madison, please don’t say that.”
Tonight, the drinks didn’t really hit the mark. Cliff tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for hours.
The Hopkins family had strict rules—fooling around or having friends with benefits was not an option. While he

Cliff decisively powered down his computer, determined to banish the thoughts from his mind. Yet, the memory
of that kiss from days ago lingered stubbornly in his consciousness. Laney’s kissing technique had been abysmal.
She'd been like someone fumbling in the dark, searching blindly for his tongue but ending up awkwardly clashing
her teeth instead.
But the memory haunted Cliff like a fever he couldn't shake. Frustrated, he pulled on sclothes and headed
out in search of ice water.
The house lay silent, its occupants long since retired. Cliff grabbed a bottle of sparkling water from the fridge and
drained it in one long gulp. Instead of returning to his room, he leaned against the counter, trying to clear his
mind.
Then cthe soft sound of footsteps from the living room.
Opening his eyes, Cliff spotted a slim figure moving stealthily through the darkness.
Laney crept toward the fridge on tiptoe, glancing furtively around before extracting two cupcakes.
