CEO's Reborn Wife-Chapter 424 - 432: You Sleep First

Jane Sampson suddenly felt that she wasn’t that tired after all; she had taken a nap in the afternoon and it seemed like she could stay up all night without sleeping. Just now, there seemed to be something missing from the script that she hadn’t fully reviewed.

After getting an answer from Jane Sampson, James Black placed the book he was holding down and started waiting for Jane to return. Nearly five minutes had passed, yet there was no sign of Jane.

James Black frowned and called out her name and surname, "Jane Sampson."

The person in the cloakroom bit her lip and didn’t respond, giving the suitcase an idle kick.

What do you do when you pretend not to hear and don’t want to go out?

There was no movement from the person in the cloakroom, and James walked barefoot off the bed, towards the cloakroom. As he pulled open the door, he saw Jane leaning against the wall, lost in thought. He asked, "Do you plan on sleeping in the cloakroom tonight?"

"Can I?" Jane blurted out.

The corners of James Black’s mouth twitched almost imperceptibly, and he retorted, "What do you think?"

Naturally, it was...

Impossible.

Jane touched her nose tip and said, "I’m not sleepy yet. You go to sleep first. I’ll see if there’s anything else that needs tidying up. Oh, it seems I haven’t finished reading my script. I’ll go back to the living room to have a look."

After speaking, Jane, crouching down, prepared to leave the cloakroom from James’s side. However, as she was just about to brush against James’s shoulder, his hand came down and pressed on her head.

"What are you hiding for? Do you think I’m going to eat you?" With those words, he turned around and picked her up, then walked steadily towards the bed.

Yes!

In Jane’s heart, there was a capitalized and bolded yes!

"James Black, let’s not tonight, okay? Please~" Jane’s small hand gently pinched the muscle on James’s arm without much force. It naturally didn’t hurt James, it was just a tickle.

Seeing Jane act like this, James realized the reason she had been hiding in the cloakroom and not coming out. Heh, so she was afraid of this?

James placed her on the bed and covered her with a quilt, then hummed in agreement with her wishes as a response.

He had already planned to spare her tonight—after all, she hadn’t rested well yesterday and her state throughout the day today wasn’t very good. Knowing she had to go to the film crew the next day, James wasn’t going to be the kind of person who didn’t know moderation.

With James’s response, Jane’s heart was greatly relieved.

So most of the time, this guy wasn’t really that annoying.

"James Black, you’re so nice!" Jane happily hugged James’s arm, closed her eyes, and as she spoke, she yawned several times in succession.

It wasn’t that she wasn’t sleepy; she was just too absorbed in reading the script just now and didn’t feel tired. After finishing the script and relaxing, sleepiness overwhelmed her.

From declaring she wasn’t sleepy to falling asleep, Jane didn’t take very long—roughly three minutes was all it took.

Listening to the steady breathing of the person next to him, James couldn’t help but smile. Alone, he laughed softly at the now-sleeping Jane and then stretched out his arm to pull the woman—who was hugging his arm—into his arms.

Early the next morning, James had to return to the guard team. When he woke up, Jane was still sleeping soundly. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

James didn’t have the heart to wake her. Instead, he set an alarm on her mobile phone, leaving her enough time to prepare her luggage and to let her sleep as long as possible.

The day was just beginning to dawn, and James had already finished packing and was ready to leave. Before he left, he returned to the bedroom one more time. Without his embrace to confine her, Jane was sleeping somewhat restlessly.
