72: I hate the new method
Getting to the bedroom, Everett gently placed Zaiyila on the bed and kissed her temple. But to his surprise, she wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him close without even opening her eyes.
Everett chuckled and tried to ease himself out of her grip, but she wouldn't let go.
"What a little clingy sweetheart," he murmured, lying beside her. He carefully positioned her on top of him to make her more comfortable.
"Single big fish in small sea… sea become huge, fish increase and turn many… single big fish in small sea, fish run away and die," Zaiyila mumbled in her sleep.
Everett furrowed his brows at her cryptic murmurs.
"She predicts the future in riddles… but she somehow understand. Isn't this about the business she asked me not to withdraw from?" he muttered thoughtfully, gently caressing her hair.
"My Queen… this King is getting more and more surprised with everything about you," he added, pressing a soft kiss into her hair.
