Holding her head, she wobbled as she climbed out of bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defeated by alcohol again—what an annoying feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sat groggily on the edge of the bed, hair a little messy, clothes wrinkled and disheveled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her camisole straps had already slipped down to her arms, only staying up thanks to her naturally gifted chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it had been someone else—like Daiyi or Miss Bernice—those straps would’ve slipped all the way down without any resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good morning, Felyn.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline glanced at Felyn, still asleep in the corner against the wall, then got up, put on her bunny slippers, and walked to the door to get some water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her throat was bone dry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And for some reason, her wrists and ankles were sore too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tried the doorknob several times, but no matter how she twisted it, the door wouldn’t budge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline, known as a genius, tilted her head, staring at the door in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, she suddenly remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did I… maybe hit the security seal button last night?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slowly walked back to the bed, passed the still-sleeping Felyn, and picked up the security seal tucked under her pillow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t there something weird in the room that wasn’t here before?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline jumped onto the bed, plopping into a proper duck-sit, hands pressed into the mattress, staring at Felyn with a dazed look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Felyn really couldn’t hold back last night—he must’ve done something to me while I was drunk!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Adeline, you’re awake?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn squinted at her. Sleeping on the floor all night was no pleasant experience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up and stretched, joints creaking audibly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He noticed Adeline biting her lip, looking like she wanted to say something but didn’t dare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why do you look likeyou’rethe victim here?I’m the one who should be!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn picked up a notebook from the table and walked a couple steps toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“F-Felyn, why were you in my room last night? Did you… did you do something to me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Adeline could finish her sentence, Felyn handed her the notebook with a blank expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline took it with both hands and saw a few lines of numbers written on the cover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Overtime compensation: 2000 crowns. You fell asleep last night and locked me in your room. I couldn’t leave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline turned red—red from the soles of her feet to the tips of her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She finally remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh yeah, that did happen!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m so sorry, Felyn! I really didn’t mean to, I didn’t know I pressed it by mistake…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn waved it off, signaling that it wasn’t a big deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as the money’s there, everything’s fine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline quickly pulled out 5000 crowns from her purse and handed them to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, is this enough? I know I went a bit too far last night. Please don’t be mad…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn took 2000 from it—it was his overnight rate—and returned the rest to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn? You… are you mad at me? I didn’t mean to.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm? I’m not mad. It’s all in the contract. There are very clear terms about compensation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline blinked. Somehow, Felyn being a little snippy like this was kinda cute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmph! Bringing up the contract and compensation—Felyn, you really are a little tsundere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is just like a couple fighting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn must just want me to coax him a little!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, as compensation, I’ll agree to any one thing you ask—as long as it’s not too over-the-top.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline gripped the bedsheet tightly. She had already mentally prepared herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it was her fault. If Felyn asked for a kiss or something, she couldn’t really say no.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The contract spells it out very clearly, Miss Adeline. If an uncontrollable event extends the service period, it’s 2000 crowns per 12 hours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, come on now…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline slid off the bed and gently tugged at the sleeve of his shirt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few strands of her hair still clung to the corner of her mouth, but she didn’t even bother to fix it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Adeline, I think there’s something I need to say. It seems like you’ve misunderstood me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn let out a sigh. Since this wasn’t contract time, there was no need to tiptoe around Adeline’s feelings anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, it was better to help her understand now—to keep her from falling deeper into the wrong assumptions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Adeline, have you been satisfied with my service lately?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm? Satisfied. Very satisfied!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline was a little confused by the question. What was Felyn getting at?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s good. I’m honored to provide emotional value for Lady Adeline. I’m also happy that you’re satisfied.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline sensed something was off. Whether it was the way Felyn kept calling her “Lady Adeline” or that distant, serious expression—something was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“However, a contract is still a contract. Everything I do is strictly within that scope. So outside of the service period, I’d prefer to keep some distance between myself and my clients.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Adeline was still his client. He couldn’t just blurt out something like,“Hey, delusional rich girl, don’t get any funny ideas—I don’t like you. Stay away from me, okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he had made himself pretty clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How would Adeline take it? Would she be sad? Embarrassed? Or… angry?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn had encountered clients who’d gone into rage fits before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it came to that, the only choice would be to end the contract early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand, Felyn. I’ll keep my distance from you during non-contract periods.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Felyn’s surprise, Adeline only went quiet for a few seconds before obediently nodding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That went a little too smoothly—it made Felyn wonder if she even understood what he’d said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh, Adeline, just to confirm… Do you understand what I meant?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course. What you’re saying is—you’re just doing your job, sticking to the contract. I shouldn’t think it’s because you like me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm-hmm, exactly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline answered so smoothly that Felyn actually started doubting himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait… maybe she never misunderstood?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe I was the one overthinking it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn nodded, satisfied, relieved that he hadn’t said anything harsh and caused a misunderstanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline nodded as well—completely satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had no idea what Felyn was going on about, but figured she should just agree with whatever he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is how you soothe a sulking boy, right? Go along with him and say yes to everything he wants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That much, Adeline understood very well!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for all that talk about contract and non-contract periods—Adeline gave it some brief thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did I really misunderstand Felyn?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it really be just the contract that made him express such deep affection?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No way!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That sincerity, that passion in Felyn’s eyes—you can’t fake that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it’s not like Felyn is some master manipulator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was just someone who carefully catered to her, loved her dearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could fake those feelings! Unless he had been trained by that conniving drama queen Zervanie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, where are you going?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline’s thoughts were interrupted when she saw Felyn heading downstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have to go home. I’ve got school today—I’m not wearing my uniform.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll give you a ride. I’ll tell the driver to—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need, Adeline.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn waved his hand. “That’s already covered by the 2000-crown compensation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline crossed her arms and let out a helpless chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seriously… Felyn was still mad? Still talking about contract compensation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine, fine. I’m the one who locked you in after all. I’ll just have to keep coaxing you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, wait! At least take some breakfast with you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline quickly ran downstairs and grabbed some bread from the kitchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Felyn nearly disappear out the door, she panicked and rushed after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t even realize she was still wearing that rather revealing nightgown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, wait for me! I was wrong last night. Let me make it up to you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline chased after him to the door—only to find Felyn standing frozen in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn? What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline thought Felyn had forgiven her. A happy smile crept onto her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next second, that smile crashed like a roller coaster plummeting down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following Felyn’s gaze, Adeline saw the figure of a certain villainess—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you’re saying… you were wrong last night?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie repeated Adeline’s words, her face pale with rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What exactly did you do to Felyn last night?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1418,"2026-06-09T04:36:14.213Z",1,"novelbin.me","f37e17091b61b04c14ca66954e066a1a8a371a81f87eee11c972a4f6808d3431","shut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-chapter-131","shut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-chapter-129",727,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-cover.jpg"]
