The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 820 The Mobius Ring 

Whitney fell silent, knowing that her meager income was something he would look down upon. Especially considering she hadn’t even finished her probation period yet, the assets she held were pitifully small.

“Sleep on the bed tonight.”

Charles knew she would sleep on the sofa whenever he didn’t return to their bedroom.

Whitney stared at him, puzzled as to why he seemed so different that night compared to usual.

After taking a bath, Whitney was hesitant to come out of the bathroom. She felt very nervous.

Will Charles also be sleeping in bed tonight?

After a long while in the bathroom, Whitney finally emerged, only to find that Charles was nowhere to be seen.

He must have gone to rest in the study again.

In the aftermath of her relief, a faint sense of loss lingered in her heart.

In truth, she shouldn’t have harbored such expectations. However, human nature was inherently greedy. and one often yearned for more even after receiving a little.

After standing by the bed, lost in thought for a while, Whitney finally climbed into bed and lay on the edge.

After what felt like an eternity, she finally drifted off to sleep.

At daybreak, the bedroom door opened, allowing the faint light from the hallway to seep in. The silhouette on the bed was barely visible. The man, who had just finished work in the study, stood by the door for a bit, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

She finally listened this time around.

In a state between sleep and wakefulness, Whitney felt a dip in the bed next to her. Groggily, she reached out and embraced whatever was next to her. It felt warm.

She was under the illusion that she was actually hoping for Charles to share a bed with her in her dreams.

Even if it was just an illusion or merely a dream, she wanted to indulge in it for now.

Like a curled-up kitten, she snuggled up to him. Charles’ back stiffened.
