"So, you're scared of ghosts. I shouldn't have taken you to see *The Chainsaw Killer* then. I should have taken you to see *The Ring*, *Ghost Baby*, and stuff like that..."
Sienna Johnson slapped him. "Adrian Desmond, if you keep teasing me, you can sleep on the floor!"
"Sienna Johnson, if you dare hit me again, I'll leave and let you stay in this room alone!"
The moment he stopped speaking, Sienna hugged his waist tightly, pressing half her body into his embrace; she was genuinely frightened.
Adrian Desmond didn't dare to continue joking with her. He hugged her tightly in return, his large frame enveloping her slender form, finally allowing her tense body to relax.
"Don't be afraid. I'm here. No ghost can hurt you."
"Mm."
He gently rubbed her back, his voice clear in the darkness. "Sometimes, you're very brave, and other times, you're very timid."
"You've found another one of my weaknesses!" she said.
