When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1513

“Good night! Sweet dreams.”

With that, I turned and left the study before Ashton could even voice his objection.

…

The next morning, I was awakened by Audrey.

The little one shook me awake after finding out that her brother was gone when she woke up.

While yawning, I coaxed, “Audrey, go and play with your brother. Let me sleep for a while…” I trailed off and fell back asleep.

Still, Audrey was relentless. “Mommy, I want you to help me get changed. Aunt Emma told me you would teach me how to wear my clothes after you come back. Mommy…”

Yet, my mind was too groggy to even bother with the little girl’s request. Feeling sleepy, I pretended to have heard nothing.

In fact, Audrey should blame her father for my sleepiness. My mind ran wild the entire night after the man teased me. In the end, I only managed to fall asleep after much tossing and turning in bed.

Audrey was still trying to wake me up while I grumbled to myself about Ashton. Just then, the man’s familiar voice rang out, “You sleepyhead.”

Oh, speak of the devil, here he is.

“Daddy!” Audrey was obsessed with her father. The moment she heard Ashton’s voice, she threw me at the back of her mind and hopped into the man’s arms. After giving Ashton a morning kiss, she explained herself, “I’m not a sleepyhead. I have woken up early today. Mommy is the sleepyhead!” I’m sorry, mommy.

For a while, Ashton remained silent before he spoke up, “Mommy didn’t sleep well because the bed is too small. We’ll buy a larger bed so I can sleep with you guys. That way, your mommy won’t oversleep again.”

“Alright, daddy!” Audrey clapped her hands in joy.

As for me, I was still mulling over Ashton’s words. A larger bed? It will take me forever to wake up if we get a larger bed. Hmph! This man is shameless lying to a kid.
