Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter 167

Chapter: 167

“Are you asleep?” Theodore’s low, husky voice broke the silence.

Ariana muttered something incoherent under her breath and turned over as naturally as she could,

trying her best to look as if she were stirring in her sleep.

“Really?” Theodore prompted incredulously.

Ariana felt annoyed and a little sheepish for being so obvious.

She tried as best as she could to avoid him. Why couldn’t he just let it go?

The room quieted down again as neither of them said anything.

But about ten seconds later, Theodore spoke again.

“You took the quilt away. I’m cold.”

His tone was somewhat helpless and aggrieved, which almost made

Ariana give up on her plan of pretend.

She couldn’t bear this embarrassment. Pretending to be disturbed and a little sleepy, she turned over

and pulled out the quilt from under her, giving half of it out to him.

Theodore tried his best not to laugh out loud. He tucked himself in and said calmly, “Thank you.”

Thank yourself! Ariana wanted to retort hotly. She grumbled to herself in annoyance. She suspected he

did that on purpose.

Too embarrassed to call him out on it, however, she decided not to dwell on it and tried to fall asleep.

She forced her mind to think of something else. She tried the good old way of counting sheep to get

herself to sleep. Just when she was about to drift off, she felt a slight pat on her shoulder.

She woke with a start, her eyes flying open and then narrowing in irritation.

“What do you want?”

Ariana turned over to glare at him. She was too grumpy at this point to even bother pretending to be

asleep.

Theodore blinked back at her innocently, fighting back the sudden urge to pinch her puffed-up cheeks

and chuckle. How could she be so cute when she was mad?

He cleared his throat as if nothing had happened and stated matter-of-factly, “I can’t sleep.”

“So?” Ariana sneered, her eyebrows scrunching in irritation.

“So sing me that song. The song you sang to get that child to fall asleep,” Theodore replied softly. His

soft tone and slightly husky voice added a hint of warmth to the narrow space between them. His dark

eyes seemed sincere.

Ariana was about to retort sarcastically, but she calmed down.

After thinking about it for a moment, she couldn’t help but chuckle. “Can you leave me alone after the

song?”
