When the Contract Marriage Ended, He Stayed

Chapter 46

Chapter 46: I Never Said I Didn’t Believe You

Since Fiona Forrest hadn’t left, Aiden Xavier didn’t dare leave either, so he had to stay the night. And that meant he could only stay in the same room as Hazel Hawthorne.

At that moment, Hazel Hawthorne and Aiden Xavier were in the room, staring at each other. Neither knew what to say to break the awkward atmosphere.

Hazel Hawthorne cleared her throat twice, her expression unnatural as she asked, "Where are you sleeping tonight?"

"The bed." Aiden Xavier’s reply was concise. He crossed his legs, folded his hands in his lap, and looked at Hazel Hawthorne with a leisurely air. He knew she wanted him to offer to sleep on the sofa. ’But why should I?’

"No way! Isn’t there a sofa in the room? You can sleep on the sofa." Hazel Hawthorne pointed to the 1.8-meter-long sofa nearby. "It might be a bit of a raw deal for you, but it’s better than sharing a bed. I’m a really restless sleeper. I kick off the blankets, I snore, and sometimes I even talk in my sleep."

Hazel Hawthorne described her sleeping habits in the most unacceptable way possible, hoping that Aiden Xavier would see the difficulty and back down.

Aiden Xavier glanced over. "So?"

"So, to avoid disturbing the quality of your sleep, it would be better for you to sleep on the sofa. At least you won’t have to listen to my snoring, sleep-talking, and teeth-grinding." Hazel Hawthorne sat cross-legged across from him, speaking with the utmost seriousness.

Aiden Xavier just sneered, "I don’t care." He stared at Hazel Hawthorne’s face, which looked as if she were constipated. "Mom is staying here tonight. Do you really want her to find out we’ve actually been sleeping in separate rooms all this time?"

Of course Hazel Hawthorne didn’t want that. She lowered her head in defeat. "But I’m not used to sleeping with another person."

"It’s not like I’m going to do anything to you. You can relax."

Hearing this, Hazel Hawthorne immediately clutched her chest. "A man and a woman alone in a room, sharing the same bed, and you’re in the prime of your life... how could I possibly relax? What if you take advantage of me while I’m asleep and have your way with me?"
