Chapter 570 Good Morning

Just as Lysander was about to drift into a cozy slumber, Josiah’s voice snapped her awake. She immediately. pulled the blanket over her head, trying to block him out..

Certain that she was still awake, Josiah pressed on, “The temperature’s dropped tonight. Check the weather if you don’t believe me.”

This was no exaggeration. He was so cold that his head was spinning-

The door wasn’t soundproof enough to mulle his discontented voice. Realizing she couldn’t sleep through it. Lysander got up and trudged to the door, grumbling. “Mr. Guerra, this isn’t a five–star hotel with room service.”

Too tired to respond with “serves you right,” Lysander mumbled, “I only have one quilt. No extras.”

Thinking he wasn’t asking for much, Josiah pleaded, “Anything warm will do. give me whatever you have.

Realizing she wouldn’t get any peace otherwise, Lysander gave in.

“Okay, remember what you said.” She threw her quilt out the door and quickly locked it again.

Accompanied by a soft “click“, the bedroom door was locked once again.

She did not bother checking if Josiah caught the quilt. Instead, she pulled out a thick winter blanket from her closet, wrapped herself in it, and fell asleep.

She had no intention of getting involved, but the heavy winter blanket soon became too hot, forcing her out of bed.
