Noble Husband At the Door novel Chapter 58

Back in the house.

Yvonne felt restless after Samuel left. As the hours slowly ticked past, she lay on the bed, unable to drift into sleep.

She clutched onto her phone. She watched the seconds trickling into minutes. It turned eleven all too soon.

Usually, she would be asleep by now, since she would go for her morning jog the next day. Why did her eyelids refuse to close then?

At that moment, Yvonne realized that Samuel was a part of her life that she could not lose. Even though he only slept on the floor, he held such an important place in her heart.

She wanted to call him and ask when he would be coming back, but he did make it clear that he had something to do before he left the house. Yvonne did not want to pester him.

Just like that, she stayed awake the whole night. The sky just began to break into dawn when Yvonne finally heard the clicking of the door. She quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Samuel had never expected to be held up the entire night. He tiptoed into the room and realized that Yvonne was still sleeping. He released a breath of

relief.

However, he then noticed that her lashes were twitching, and her eye bags had worsened. Dark circles also ringed her eyes. "Don't tell me you were awake the whole night?" he said with a bitter smile.

A jolt of surprise rang through Yvonne when she heard what Samuel said. She did not want him to know about that, so she continued to pretend to be sleeping.

Samuel knew that she was faking it, but he did not call her out on it. He lay down on the floor mattress. "A friend of mine ran into some trouble. That’s why I was out the whole night,” he said, as though he were talking to himself.

Yvonne had the urge to ask what exactly happened, but she was pretending to be asleep. She would be caught dead in the act if she said anything.
