Chapter 41
Seeing as Lucy was crying even harder, Matthew was at a loss.
After crying for a while, Lucy calmed down and wiped the tears from her face. She looked at the dazed Matthew and chuckled.
“Thank you. I feel better now.”
Finally, Matthew relaxed.
He took out a few tissues and handed them to Lucy.
Lucy took them quietly. After a while, she mumbled in a small voice, “I hate arguing.”
Matthew was confused, “Arguing? Haven’t you argued with her before? I’ve never seen you like this.”
Lucy did not want to continue this topic.
Seeing as she was reluctant to talk about it, he did not ask any more questions. He patted her head. “If you feel upset, just go to bed. You’ll forget about it after you wake up.”
Lucy nodded resignedly and hesitated before saying, “Can I sleep here. with you? I can’t sleep alone.”
Matthe smiled. She was his wife. Of course, she could sleep here.
“If you have trouble sleeping, you can sleep with me from now on.”
Matthew said frankly after giving it some thought.
Lucy agreed. She lay down under Matthew’s blanket and closed her eyes with peace of mind.
Matthew noticed the e blanket was not snug enough, so he tucked her in. Then, he also climbed into bed and pulled half of the covers
over him.
He turned off the lights, leaving only the bedside lamp turned on. Next, he pulled out a pair of gold–rimmed glasses and a book.
Lucy turned over and looked at him. “Aren’t you going to sleep?”
Matthew shook his head. “I’ll sleep after you fall asleep.”
Lucy closed her eyes. Not even ten minutes later, she opened them again. “I can’t sleep!”
Matthew closed the book and looked at her helplessly. “You haven’t even closed your eyes for ten minutes. Of course, you can’t sleep.”
“I just can’t. How about you read to me?” Lucy pouted.
Matthew could not bear to say no to his wife.
“Okay, okay. I’ll read to you, but you have to close your eyes.” Matthew looked at her dotingly.
Lucy finally closed her eyes with a look of satisfaction on her face.
Matthew’s pleasing voice resonated in Lucy’s ears.
His voice was so pleasing that anyone would want to stay awake and listen to him talk, but the book he was reading was about psychology!
