...Sleep where? What?! Hospital beds were tiny! If she slept beside him under that quilt, the situation would turn intimate in seconds!
With that in mind, Xavia rapidly shook her head before exclaiming, “T-that’s not good! After all, you… You’ve just received treatment! Let’s not forget about that infusion needle incident as well! Just so you know, I have a terrible sleeping posture, so I fear I may accidentally hurt you again!”
Though her reasoning made sense, the fact that she rapid-fired through so many was a clear sign that she was against the idea, no? With that, Zivon then replied, “…You’re bothering my sleep by sitting there. If I’m unable to recover due to lack of rest, how will you explain things to Maison on his birthday?”
…Maison’s birthday… Come to think of it, Maison’s had said that his top wish for his birthday was for his father to play with him… Now that she remembered that, Xavia went silent for a while before saying, “…I’ll lower the companion chair to flatten it. If I sleep that way, I won’t disturb your sleep, correct…?”
“…As you wish,” muttered Zivon before closing his eyes to sleep.
Xavia herself turned her cell phone off before quietly lying on the recliner, not daring to disturb him any further. After all, aside from needing to be fit enough to play with Maison on his birthday, Zivon needed to make time to visit Jenna as well. Due to that, he needed to recover as soon as possible…
Regardless, it was already getting quite late, so Xavia soon found herself drifting off to sleep. Unfortunately, the recliner was a little too narrow, and the second she rolled in her sleep, she fell right off!
Landing on her buttocks with a loud ‘thump,’ Xavia couldn’t help but yelp in pain! This, of course, awoke Zivon, who quickly sat up and turned on the lights… only to see the frowning woman sitting on the ground.
After a brief silence, Zivon was prompted to say, “…So… Still planning on being stubborn?”
Upon hearing that, Xavia couldn’t help but raise a slight brow. She had just hurt herself for heaven’s sake! Could he not follow up with an insult…? Not wanting to even bother with him, Xavia slowly got to her feet—making sure to pat the dust off her clothes first—before returning to the recliner to sleep.
However, before she was even able to lie down, Zivon said in a commanding tone, “Come over here.”
