After dinner, Angela returned to her room quickly. She was unable to sit still as she listened to the sound of water in the bathroom.

Today, Jonathan skipped his usual study session and headed straight to the bathroom for a

shower.

He was back, so were they going to sleep together?

Angela lay under the blanket and wrapped herself tightly. She even used her body to press down on the corners and edges to prevent herself from sleeping improperly. She didn’t want to end up in his arms and get too handsy with him.

Wrapping herself so securely should limit her restless movements, right?

After a while, the sound of water stopped, and Jonathan came out in a bathrobe. He casually dried his hair while looking at Angela, who had wrapped herself into a cocoon, with a momentary pause.

“What are you doing?” he asked.

Angela narrowed her eyes. “This way, I won’t disturb your sleep.”

He pursed his lips and continued drying his hair. “Go to sleep early. Tomorrow is Christopher’s engagement banquet, and as my wife, you need to attend with me.”

“Okay.” Angela blinked as she sensed an underlying meaning in his words. “Aren’t you going to sleep early?”

Jonathan said in a low voice, “I’m going to the study.”

Is he going to the study to work for another night?

Did he really not take her advice to heart?

Angela lifted her gaze and quickly scrutinized him before lecturing sternly. “You haven’t rested properly for two or three days. You can’t work anymore, Jonathan. Let’s go to sleep.”

Then, she silently shifted to the other side of the bed while pointing to the vast space in front. “This is your spot.”
