Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 114

The night was dark, but a cramp in the calf muscles woke Christina up from a sound sleep.

She reached out to turn on the light beside the bed.

Frowning, she propped herself up slowly and moved to the bedside.

And she lifted her numb and painful right leg and put it down softly.

Pregnant women often had cramps in their legs at midnight...

She didn't know what to do with it before, so she just lay on the bed and massaged herself, but the effect was not much.

Fortunately, Crystal taught her how to deal with that.

"Why are you still awake?"

The door was suddenly opened.

Seeing that the lights were still on, Patrick looked at her with a displeased expression and said, "Christina, it's already 2:00 in the morning."

"I thought you don't know!"

She glared at him, her tone not very good.

His Injury didn't recover but he stayed up late.

No one could keep him on a short since grandpa hadn't been here.

The room became quiet again, and neither of them spoke anymore, Patrick went to the showcr but felt annoyed to sce that she was still sitting by the bed when he got out.

"Christina, you're not supposed to stay up late when you're pregnant.'’ He tried to speak gently.

"I know, and I'm just..."

She felt kind of awkward, but did not want to say anything after staring at him for a second.

Christina sulked and turned her face away from him.

She shook her right leg slightly, not feeling the cramp, and then put her left foot in, lay down again.

Patrick indeed wore out.

After going through the financial report all night, he didn't want to argue about anything.

He lay down, turn off the light, wanting to rest.

"Patrick..." The woman beside him called him hesitantly.

"Patrick, are you asleep?" Christina said in a low voice.

She knew he didn't fall asleep yet.

The man did not respond to her, but suddenly extended his palm to hold her hand, which was soft.

Their fingers touched.

After that accident, his right shoulder got injured, so he could not hold her in his arm like before, which made him kind of not accustomed.

"I'm busy all day, Christina.I want to get my rest."

His low voice was with tiredness, but perhaps it was late at night, the voice got softer.Christina moved closer to him.She had slept for hours and was wide awake now.She wasn't contented and said, "I'm not stopping you."

"Dear, I wanna talk to you.Can you sleep later?"

"Okay."

It was the first time for them to chat in bed at night.

And usually, she was not clingy.

"I know you're busy, and I don't have much to do at home.Can I select the outfit for you in the future?"

She got excited, "The doctor told me that adequate exercise was going for me..."

"I was thinking of helping out in the kitchen, but that didn't suit me." Her voice grew fainter and fainter.

The man chuckled.

"Why are you laughing? I really want to be a good wife."

She felt a bit annoyed, aiming a kick at him.

He already knew at the very beginning that she did not have a knack for that.

Something suddenly occurred to her, and she leaned closer to him with an ingratiating smile.

"Hey, I want to be a gardener.That's what I can do.I like to use clippers."

"No." He rejected that.
