Chapter 1385
Anthony and Charmine laid in bed, with Chris nestled between them.
It might have been due to his excitement that Chris still tossed and turned at 11 p.m., unable to sleep a wink as he gazed at Charmine, brightly grinning at her.
Seeing how tired Charmine seemed, Anthony’s gaze grew wrathful as he snapped, "Sleep, now!"
Chris blinked his innocently big eyes, muttering, "But I can't fall asleep."
He had not seen Charmine for too many days. He missed her too much.
Anthony was speechless.
Charmine offered, 'Til tell you some bedtime stories, then?" "Okay! Hehe!" Chris leaned into her arms obediently.
Charmine then picked up a storybook with her clear voice ringing, "One day, Adam made a robot friend. The robot ran with him..."
Her voice was gentle and soothing, almost hypnotic, so much so that Chris somehow fell asleep in her arms as he listened.
Charmine put him down carefully and draped the blanket over him.
Thinking Anthony was asleep, she looked over to see his hands put behind his head, all while looking at her.
She halted. "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Anthony looked at her, and his thin lips parted for him to utter, "Waiting for you."
Feeling touched, Charmine carefully got out of bed and walked toward his side of the bed, lying next to him and nuzzling into his arms naturally.
Anthony hugged her and looked at her with his darkened eyes, saying, "You acted strange today."
Charmine's heart almost missed a beat.
Did he find out something?
She tried her best to keep calm and asked, "So I can't even treat you nicer?
I'll just treat you like how I used to, then?"
With that, Charmine stood up and threatened to leave, only to be pulled back by Anthony, reeling her back in with an arm around her waist.
