Sweet Divorce
Chapter132 Sleep Together

Liam came back to the hospital after he dealt with Charlotte.

Several steps later, a sudden dizziness overpowered him. Beginning to overbalance, he felt himself teeter.

"Feel dizzy again?" Jacob caught him with worry, "Liam, you should see a doctor, then I'll feel more reassured." "I'm fine. I just need to get some sleep. I'll have a rest when I come to the hospital room."

Liam hadn't fallen asleep for thirty-six hours since he heard Rita had an accident.

Moreover, he also came to search and rescue Rita in the mountain, so the strain was beginning to tell on him.

Jacob frowned, "Well, let me help you go upstairs."

"I can go by myself." Liam tapped the boy, "It's been a heavy day. Go home and get some rest."

"But..."

"Go home!"

Jacob still wanted to say something, but Liam interrupted him with a commanding tone.

Although Jacob still worried about Liam, he just said, "Liam, have a rest right after you go to the room."

"Okay."

Smiling, Liam saw Jacob left the hospital and then came to Rita.

When he came in, Rita was chatting with someone by video. Liam could not hear what they were talking, but she kept laughing.

Liam hadn't seen her being so happy for a long time, so he did not want to interrupt. Then he sat beside her quietly.

"Rita, how's it going with cold-blooded Mr. Wilson?" Lillian did not know Liam was here, so she asked Rita curiously, "He still cannot get Joey out of his mind?" Cold-blooded man...

"What? He really cannot forget about Joey? What a dumbass." Lillian thought she was right because Rita did not deny. Then she could not resist complaining for Rita.

But Rita was in a sweat.

She flicked a glance at the man sitting in front of her covertly, and then signaled Lillian to stop.

But Lillian did not understand what she was doing, "Rita, what's wrong? You've got a stroke?"

"No..."

"Then why are your eyes and lips twitching?"

Rita was speechless.

"She's tired." Suddenly, Lillian heard a deep and mesmerizing voice of a man.

Although she hadn't seen Liam for years, she could still recognize the voice belonged to Liam, the man which Rita was crazy about.

When did he come? Did he hear what she had said?

Lillian was so unnerved that she could not hold her cell phone steady. Then her phone hit the floor with a smash.

But she did not feel pity for her phone now. She was biting her fingernails with embarrassment.

It turned out Rita had been reminding her to stop gossiping just now. But she was too stupid to know that Liam was right at the other end of the phone and she was speaking ill of him. It was really awkward.

"Lillian, that's it. We can have another call when we have the time." To make Lillian less embarrassed, Rita spoke in time.

After she hung up the phone, Rita glanced at the man distantly, "Jim has come home?"

"Yeah."

"Okay." Rita replied and then played on the phone, ignoring Liam.

He had seen through her when she was playing possum just now, so she did not want to do it again.

Maybe she should continue to treat him with difference.

Then he would give up after he realized her determination.

She was staring at her screen when she felt someone approached.

She turned around and saw Liam was lying down on her bed.

Then she held his shoulder to stop him getting closer, "What are you doing?"

"I want to sleep."

"Then go home. Why do you go to my bed? Get out of the bed." Rita said with a scowl and then she tried to pushed him away.

But her hands were gripped. "Rita, I haven't fallen asleep for thirty-six hours. Now I'm bushed and I don't want to spend more time going home." Thirty-six hours?

Rita suddenly realized that he did not even take a break after he saved her and took her back.

Maybe because he didn't sleep for a long time, he apparently looked tired. The redness around his eyes also showed the fatigue he was suffering.

When her mind wandered, Liam had laid down and closed his eyes.

Rita frowned, "You... I..."

She did not know what to say after she hemmed and hawed for a while.

After all, he was exhausted because of saving her. She could not blame him if he wanted to have a rest on her bed.

She could crawl out of the bed and go to sit in the chair.

She was to get up, but her waist hurt. Then she froze with her back soaked with sweat.

"Stay still. Otherwise, your doctor said, the swelling will not be reduced. Moreover, reducing swelling is not that important. But it's bad for you when you investigate the accident of Noah." Although she did not want to admit it, he was right.

She did not want to delay the investigation because of her caprice.

Thinking for a while, she laid back on the bed.

Liam could not resist smiling when he found Rita laid down again.

He stopped frowning. Then he forgot all the concerns and fell asleep.

Rita did not feel comfortable lying next to Liam.

But she was relieved when she found his breath became steady.

She watched some short videos and then read some chapters of a novel. Three hours had flashed by, but Liam still did not wake up. Rita gave a yawn. Then she lowered her guard and closed her eyes. While Rita's breath was steady, Liam opened his eyes.

He glanced through her beautiful face and then stared at her pink lips. Smiling, he kissed her tenderly.

Maybe he was afraid he would wake her, so he moved his lips after a few seconds.

His eyes were filled with love when he was looking at her pretty face.

His arms crept around her neck. Then he closed his eyes again and fall asleep with a smile.

When Rita woke up at dusk, she saw his handsome face immediately.

She was stunned. Then she found she had been lying in his arms. His hand was under her head, the other hand was rest on her waist.

Seeing that, she pushed Liam away angrily, "Liam!"

"What?" The man was puzzled by her anger.

"You... I... Why are we huddling together?" She remembered she was not that close to him when she slept.

Liam was serious, "I'm weaned on a diet of rigid discipline."

Rita did not understand.

"I seldom turn in bed." His eyes rest on her meaningfully, "But you..."

Although he did not continue, she knew what he wanted to say.

He was complaining that she would keep changing her sleeping gesture when she fell asleep.

Her parents were not strict with her when she was a child, so she had never paid attention to her sleeping gesture. When they just got married, Liam was forced to sleep together with her. At that time, even they put a quilt between them, she would still wake up in his arms the next morning.

So... it was she who came close to him as she used to?

Well, that was really awkward.

Rita blushed with her teeth dug into her lip, "I, I'm sorry. I've fallen into slumber."

"Never mind." Liam said kindly. But he could not help smiling when he turned around.☐☐☐☐☐☐
