Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 1083
Ever since Phoebe regained consciousness, this was the first time she had seen Howard look so sad.
Recognizing her own fault this time, she softened her tone.
âForget it. Letâs drop the matter. I went out without telling you beforehand, which made you worry, so I apologize.â
Hearing her admission, Howard forced a smile.
âPhoebe, thatâs really good to hear. Next time, you must tell me before leaving. Bring two bodyguards for protection and send me a message, okay?â
Phoebe remained silent..
Having two bodyguards around all the time and constantly watching her every move made her feel uncomfortable. However, seeing Howardâs gloomy expression, she agreed.
âIâll send you a message and inform you where Iâm going, but about the bodyguards⦠can we play it by ear? Like today, when Iâm just hanging out with Sheena, having two people watching would make me feel
uncomfortable.â
She compromised on one condition and rejected another.
It was a giveâandâtake situation.
Howard was already satisfied that she had agreed to inform him beforehand.
âOkay. Letâs go with that.â
With the matter settled, Phoebe stood by awkwardly as Howard continued gazing at her.
Remembering unfinished tasks for the night, she cautiously asked, âSo, are you still planning to go over
study materials tonight?â
Howard met her gaze, sensing her unease and hesitation, and asked, âDo you want to do that?â
Phoebe hesitated momentarily before admitting. âIâve been out of it all day, and I donât feel ready for studying. If we study, I definitely wonât be able to focus.â
Remembering Sheena mentioning Phoebeâs struggle with foundational knowledge and advising him to be
patient, Howard acted reasonably and pulled Phoebe closer to him.
âIn that case, no studying tonight/Letâs give you a break.â
Relieved to hear this, Phoebe felt a weight lift off her shoulders and smiled radiantly.
âThank you, Mr. Howard. Iâll make sure to study well tomorrow.â
Howard pondered for a moment and suggested, âHow about this? Starting tomorrow, when I return from work in the evening, instead of immediately studying, Iâll spend half an hour tutoring you before quizzing you. How does that sound?â

Phoebe looked at him with a hint of worry. âMr. Howard, youâre busy during the day. Wonât that be too exhausting for you if you tutor me for the entrance exam at night?â
Howard clasped her hands lightly. âIf youâre worried about me being too tired, why not let me sleep with you at night? Let me hold you, and weâll fall asleep together every night. Iâll definitely have a good rest.
Can we do that?â
Wellâ¦
For Phoebe, it had only been a little over half a month since she regained consciousness, meaning she
had only known Howard for about the same period.
They were practically strangers.
In just over ten days, they went from being acquaintances to sharing meals and living arrangements.
Now, he was suggesting they sleep together every night.
It felt weird just thinking about it, sending shivers down her spine.
Howard was undeniably handsome, a genuine catch as he was also wealthy, and she could not deny feeling a flutter of attraction.
However, she could not get past the feeling of him being a stranger.
Seeing her silence, Howard understood her refusal and tried to reassure her with a wry smile.
âIâm getting ahead of myself, and my expectations were too rushed. If you donât want to, then letâs forget I
mentioned it.â
Phoebe eased into it. âThank you, Mr. Howard. I really appreciate it. When I become financially. independent, Iâll definitely repay you for your kindness.â
Howard was momentarily taken aback.
Was she offering to compensate him with money?
As a prominent figure in the entertainment industry, one of the heirs to the Lawson familyâs fortune, her certainly was not in need of money.
âIn the future, if you want to compensate me with money, Iâll pass. I preferâ¦â

To have you instead, Howard finished the sentence in his mind.
Nonetheless, he did not say that, as he did not want to scare his sweet girl, and he just fantasized for a
moment.
âAlright, itâs getting late. Should we get ready for bed?â
