Chapter 42
Matthew closed his eyes, thinking that he could escape that way. Little did he know that not even ten minutes later, the woman beside him began tossing and turning.
He helplessly opened his eyes and looked at his wife. Was it because of what happened just now that she could not sleep peacefully?
Before he could even start to feel bad for her, he saw her rolling over twice toward the edge of the bed!
With his quick reflexes, he pulled her back and breathed a sigh of
relief.
She almost fell out of bed!
That was not the end for him.
Lucy felt the warmth of a heat source nearby, so she snuggled up to it and wrapped herself around it like an octopus.
Matthew felt his chest tighten up again. How was he supposed to sleep when such a tender and delicate woman was in his arms?
He sighed, suddenly feeling that his suggestion earlier might have been too hasty. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Looking at Lucy’s beautiful sleeping face, he sighed. How could het push her away from his arms? Instead, he hugged her even tighter and covered her in the blanket.
He could just take a cold shower the next morning. It was good for his health anyway!
There was nothing wrong with being extra clean,
Matthew endured the heat emanating from his body and ‘calmly shut
his eyes.
Throughout the night, he only had good dreams.
Early in the morning, warm sunlight filtered in through the uncovered window, landing on the faces of the two people in bed.
Lucy rubbed her eyes and pulled herself away from her Princel Charming.
As soon as she opened her eyes, Matthew’s handsome face came into view.
There were dark circles under his eyes. Perhaps it was because he did. not sleep well last night.
Feeling sorry, Lucy reached out her hand to touch his dark circles.
Not long after, a hand nearly twice as big as hers held her hand.
The handsome man in front of her opened his eyes and yawned lazily. He placed his other hand on her waist and pulled her into his arms.
“Stop. It’s still early. Sleep with me for a while longer.”
Blushing, Lucy took her hand out of his.
Matthew did not think much about it and placed his hand on the back. of Lucy’s head.
“I fell asleep late last night. Since I don’t have much to do today anyway, let’s sleep a little longer,” he repeated himself with a pleading
tone.
Now that he mentioned it, Lucy recalled what happened last night when she ran into his room. Feeling a little embarrassed, she stayed in his arms quietly.
After staying there for two hours, Lucy was starting to feel a little hungry. She glanced at Matthew and noticed that he was fast asleep.

She carefully removed herself from his arms so that she could go get
breakfast.
To her surprise, Matthew was not asleep at all. He instantly pulled Lucy back and opened his eyes.
“Don’t move.”
Lucy’s disturbance had completely rid him of any sleepiness he had
left.
She noticed that he was wide awake and struggled even more.
“I’m hungry. I want to go down and have breakfast.”
Matthew held her down. “I told you not to move.”
Before she could do anything, she was stunned.
She instantly realized what she was touching and stayed frozen in place.
Matthew teased her mischievously.
“Wifey? You’d better not get on my nerves.”
