Chapter 234
“Uh. Theo.”
Snapping back to her senses, Ellinor instinctively shoved the man away. Sitting upright, she took a few deep breaths, then grumbled, “Then, what on earth are you doing?”
The man didn’t respond, just lazily rolled over, eyes closed, breathing steady
Ellinor frowned Was he asleep?
“Hal” Did Theo dream that Patricia was falling for him, so he accidentally kissed the wrong person in his dream?
Ellinor wiped her mouth in annoyance.
“Who let him climb into bed?
Hadn’t they always had a one person per bed, one person on the couch arrangement?
She’d love to kick this guy out of bed if he wasn’t down with a cold today!
Ellinor grumbled under her breath for a bit, then finally calmed down and glanced at the man’s face…..
How come Theo was sleeping so soundly? Could his cold have gotten worse?
She couldn’t make out his complexion with the lights off in the room. She hesitated for a moment, then reached out to feel his forehead. To her relief, he wasn’t running a fever
Theo wasn’t under the covers, just wearing his pajamas, sleeping peacefully.
His handsome face seemed even more profound under the moonlight filtering through the window
Still peeved over the accidental kiss, Ellinor begrudgingly pulled the covers over him!
Feeling that one blanket wasn’t enough, she got out of bed, fetched a spare from the closet, and spread it over him. She then adjusted the blankets, hoping they would make him sweat slightly
Due to his illness, she kindly allowed him to use the bed for the night.
Ellinor surrendered the bed to Theo and prepared herself to sleep on the couch.
However, just as she turned around, she heard something fall….
She looked back and saw that all the blankets had fallen to the floor!
And the man in the bed just shifted positions and continued sleeping soundly…
Ellinor frowned. What was with this guy and kicking his blankets off?
She turned around reluctantly, picked up the blankets and spread them over him again, then headed for the couch
However, she soon heard the exact sound of something falling again. She turned around, and sure enough, the blankets had fallen off again!
Ellinor went back and forth, covering him several times, but none worked. The blankets would be kicked to the floor as soon as she turned her back. It was incredibly frustrating!
She couldn’t just ignore him The guy had a cold, and leaving him without a blanket all night would surely make him feverish by morning!
Ellinor took a deep breath to calm herself, picked up the blankets one last time, and spread them over him. Then she simply climbed into the bed and lay on top of him, holding the blankets in place. She wanted to see how he would kick them off now!
OK, she’d just sleep like this for the night!
They were both sober so that nothing would happen.
She saw this as returning a favor to Theo for having rescued her from the valley earlier in the day instead of abandoning her.
In the darkness, Ellinor didn’t notice the slight smile playing at the corners of Theo’s lips…
The next day, Ellinor woke up and rubbed her eyes. She sat up and stretched…
At that moment, Theo walked out of the bathroom Looking at her, he asked, “Did you sleep well last night?”
