Felicity said, “I had to ask. What if something went missing and you blamed it on me?’
Vermont chuckled. “I’ll just sell you to compensate my loss then.”
Felicity scoffed. “Well, everything in your house has to go missing first then. ’ She continued impatiently, “Hurry up. I still have to go to the company tomorrow morning. I can’t stay for too long.”
‘Got it. Come on in.”
Felicity hung up, entered the passcode, and went inside.
There was a faint fragrance inside, and a pot of butterfly orchids with green leaves and snowy petals emitted a pleasant aura at the entrance.
When she was changing her shoes, she subconsciously looked at the shoe cabinet. She saw several rows of men’s shoes and she took the only pair of women’s slippers inside. It was a pair of pink slippers with fluffy rabbit ears.
They were bought by Vermont after Felicity complained about his home slippers being too big and uncomfortable for her to walk in.
She even mocked Vermont’s taste back then, but she realized that the design actually looked not bad after some time.
For some reason, she felt relieved after knowing that there was only a pair of women’s slippers in the shoe cabinet.
She walked past the entrance and cautiously walked inside.
The house was neatly organized and there were several scented candles lit on the coffee table. The dining table had a vase with two roses, red and white each, giving a classy touch.
Vermont just knew how to enjoy the materialistic things in life.
Even though he lived alone, his house was always spotless.
Felicity initially thought that Vermont had a part-time maid who came regularly to clean his house. However, after getting close to him, she only found out that the part-time maid would only come every Wednesday and Saturday, which meant that Vermont took care of the cleaning for the other days.
Vermont had OCD, and he could not bear to see his house in a mess. When she fumbled through his collection of classic books, he would immediately start putting them back in place as soon as she messed the order up. He had to arrange every book at the same angle, and Felicity could never understand what that strange habit was of his about.
She placed a pillow behind her waist and sat cross-legged on the sofa. Then, she started logging into the game on her phone.
As soon as she logged in, she heard Vermont’s voice coming from the bathroom.
‘There are drinks in the fridge. Take whatever you want. Also, grab me two bottles of beer.”
’Okay,” Felicity said before putting down her phone and going to open the fridge.
The fridge was filled with alcohol, drinks, and bottled water. The only food inside was a slice of bread stuffed in the corner, and Felicity had no idea how long it had been there.
It had only been a little over one week since the last time and she could not figure out where all the food went. There was a supermarket right downstairs, and it was extremely convenient for him to just
grab some groceries. ‘How does he live like this?’
Felicity took out some drinks and two bottles of beer and closed the fridge door. She thought for a while, took her phone out, and called the owner of the supermarket downstairs.
After a while, the employee working the night shift at the supermarket came knocking at the door with bags of groceries in his hands.
Vermont has just done showering. He grabbed a towel and dried his hair with it before coming out in a bathrobe.
There was no one on the sofa, but he saw the panda bolster that Felicity would always hug and her little blanket all over the sofa.
He was still wondering where Felicity was when he heard some noise coming out of the kitchen.
Vermont dried his hair as he walked toward the kitchen.
In front of the fridge, he saw a tiny figure busily stuffing food inside.
