Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 1418 Speechless
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Sadie leaned in, curiosity all over her face. "What exactly did you say to her?"
"You're noisy," Micah grumbled, frowning.
"Let me guess," Sadie was on a mission now. "She confessed to you, and you turned her down?"
Micah just closed his eyes, ignoring her.
Sadie huffed, "No way, that's not it. I saw you liked her. You even asked me to leave earlier, like you were protecting her."
Jealousy crept into Sadie's voice as she kept guessing, "Did you two have a fight? Was it because of me?"
"Are you done yet?" Micah was about to lose it.
"Fine, I'll stop," Sadie yawned, lifting the blanket and crawling in. "I'll take a nap while the kids aren't here."
She had just settled in when she remembered something and quickly moved aside.
Micah nudged her with his foot, "What were you trying to say earlier?"
"What?" Sadie mumbled, hugging a pillow with her eyes closed. She was already half-asleep. She hadn't slept well in days and was exhausted. "You... earlier... you called my name and said something..." Micah pressed. He really wanted to hear it again.
He urged, "Come on, what was it?"
"No, did I? I don't remember," Sadie denied.
"You..." Micah was so frustrated he could grind his teeth. If he were in better shape, he would've flipped her over and spanked her. But he couldn't move. Sadie patted his shoulder gently, like soothing a child, and murmured, "Alright, go to sleep. The doctor said you need rest to recover."
"Sadie, you..." Micah started, but Sadie was already asleep, snoring lightly.
He stared at her in disbelief. Did she just fall asleep mid-conversation? Micah was speechless.
But looking at her sleeping face, a faint smile crept onto his lips. She seemed like the old Sadie again, a bit silly and much more lively.
This was good. At least she was by his side.
Micah moved closer, letting her head rest on his shoulder. Sadie instinctively snuggled into his arms, breathing in his scent, and slept even more soundly. Micah rubbed his chin against her forehead, gently kissed her hair, and then gradually fell asleep too.
Time passed quietly and beautifully. They did nothing, just cuddled and slept together, feeling very happy.
In the afternoon, Sadie was awakened by the alarm clock. She woke up with a start, hurriedly turned off the alarm, afraid of waking Micah. But he woke up anyway. "Sorry, did I wake you?" Sadie rubbed her eyes and got out of bed.
She said softly, "I promised to go to Hillside Villa tonight to cook for the kids. They're almost out of school, so I need to hurry over."
Micah frowned, "Why not stay here?"
Sadie tied up her long hair and went to the bathroom to freshen up, replying, "Not just Noah, Nathan, and Mia, but also those three little girls. I haven't spent time with them in a while." Micah said, "Bring them all over here." He didn't want her to leave. He only felt secure when she was around.
"Hmm?" Sadie was brushing her teeth and didn't hear him.
Micah had to wait until she came out to speak again.
Soon, Sadie finished freshening up, wiped her face, and changed clothes behind the screen. She asked, "What did you say earlier?"
Micah patiently repeated, "I said... bring those three little girls over here too."
