Tessa Caldwell felt she might have explained it wrong and hurriedly added, "No, that's not it. You do need me, because I'm the only woman you don't find repulsive."
Faye didn't want to explain this issue, because he knew that no matter how he explained it, it wouldn't make a difference. She was the only one, a truth he couldn't prove to her.
He hugged her again, taking the opportunity to slide his hand under her waist, holding her tightly, saying, "I know you're tired, and honestly, I'm tired too."
Tessa glared at him coldly, "You're tired, but you still won't let go."
