My Wife is a Hacker by Summer

Patricia frowned, having a hunch that Ellar was not being truthful about what he had really said moments ago.

However, she did not push it as she did not want to talk about it.

“Go home now, will you!? I’m going to sleep. The doctor told me I needed my rest,” she said in a bid to shoo him away.

“Oh yes. You shall rest. I’ll just be here to accompany you. If anything happens, I’ll take care of you,” Ellar said.

He then sat down, hinting at Patricia to go to sleep while he watched her.

Patricia’s lips began to twitch in irritation. There was no way she could fall asleep with him here watching her like a prison warden. Patricia figured that Ellar must have stuck around on purpose, as she really did not need anyone to look after her while she was sleeping.

Meanwhile, Ellar continued sitting by the bedside, frowning as he noticed that Patricia was still awake. “You said you needed rest, but why aren’t you sleeping?”

Those words made Patricia fume. ‘Don’t play dumb, Captain Obvious. Gosh, the balls on him to ask me why I’m awake.’ Patricia then glared at Ellar and sneered. “I’ll fall asleep once you’re out of here.”

“I said I’m going to stay here with you. Don’t worry. You can sleep in peace,”

Ellar insisted with no intention of leaving.
