At that moment, Valeria was just thankful that the two of them were fully dressed.
While Valeria's face was extremely red, Sebastian looked refreshed. However, when he met Selena's innocent eyes, he suddenly felt an inexplicable pang of guilt.
Valeria did not bother to explain, and it wasn't like she could explain what had happened either.
Meanwhile, Sebastian told them that he had to go out for a bit and that he'd return after a while to bring them home.
Valeria knew that Selena wanted to use the bathroom and was about to help her when Selena said, "Mommy, I can do it myself."
Hence, Valeria waited by the door for a short while. As she stared at the frosted glass door, she felt an inexplicable sense of guilt, and the heat in her cheeks still had not faded.
Valeria felt like she had done something bad and was terrified of being caught.
She began to wonder if there were any weird smells in the bathroom when she remembered there were no windows inside. She wasn't sure if Sebastian had thought to turn on the ventilation in the bathroom.
Valeria was also recalling if they had thrown the condoms in the trash can or if they had forgotten to throw them away and had left them out on the floor.
The feeling was exactly like how she'd be worried about whether her door was locked after arriving at the office. She completely forgot about what had happened afterward.
"Mommy." Selena's voice rang from inside.
Valeria pushed open the door and went in.
"Mommy, I still need your help," Selena admitted. Her winter clothes were considerably thick, and she did not dare to put her weight on one of her legs.
Valeria helped Selena get dressed, and she instinctively glanced around the bathroom, only to realize that the bathroom was much smaller than she had imagined. It was barely a few feet wide.
She didn't dare to imagine how she and Sebastian had stayed in there for so long and the intense things they had done. No wonder she felt breathless and suffocated just now.
"Mommy, did you catch a fever? Your face is really red." Selena looked at Valeria worriedly before she suddenly peeled off the cooling pad on her forehead and stuck it on Valeria's forehead.
