Chapter 1381


    Then the father and son quieted down. They didn''t dare to make another noise.


    When it was bedtime, Brad refused to sleep in the adjoining bedroom but insisted on sleeping with


    Luke.


    Eileen wouldn''t let him since Luke had been injured in the abdomen.


    Besides, Brad was always restless during sleep. He might kick about and hurt Luke''s wounds.


    But Brad could not be convinced. Luke showed an indulgent look as he wanted to sleep with his


    son.


    Unable to dissuade either of them, Eileen vented her spleen on Luke. "Your abdomen


    is injured."


    She turned around and sulked to Brad, "He may die."


    Once again, the father and son fell silent.


    After a while, Luke gazed at her and suggested, "Sleep here in the middle and separate us. It will be


    fine."


    Eileen''s chest was heaving with anger.


    Upon hearing that, she looked at him with rounded eyes.


    "Let''s sleep together. I''ll be on the left. You will be in the middle. Brad will be on the right."


    Luke added, curling his thin lips to chuckle.


    She was so angry because she was worried about his wounds!


    Brad nodded excitedly and eagerly. "Mom,e on. Sleep with us. It''s been a long time since we


    did it!


    "Stop making a scene!"


    Eileen reprimanded him in a low voice.


    "I’m not."


    Brad rubbed his eyes. "Just one night. Is that okay? Mom, please!"


    Eileen continued to re at the two instead of giving a reply.


    But the expression on her face told the answer.


    No!


    "Sleep with us, or leave my son and me alone." Luke stopped wrestling with her and continued,


    "Brad, sleep!"

    Brad nodded, quickly took off his shoes, and swiftly got on the bed.


    By the time Eileen tried to catch him, he had already been under the quilt.


    The father and son held each other tightly.


    They stuck together as if she were a viin!


    Worried about Luke’s wounds, Eileen spanked Brad, pped him on the back, took off her shoes,


    and got in bed.


    Luke’s face lit up. Brad was also excited. They did a high five to celebrate.


    In the end. Brad was separated from Luke.


    Eileen slept in the middle. The night was deep, but she didn’t feel sleepy at all.


    Luke was beside her. His breath faintly assailed her nostrils and unsettled her mind. She found it


    hard to sleep.


    Brad fell asleep though.


    After a while, Luke’s low voice came out." Are you asleep?"


    Eileen didn''t respond. Her body remained stiff and still.


    "I know you''re awake. That makes two of u s. Isn''t it nice for the three of us to live like this?" he


    asked.


    Still, she gave no response. They were so close that she could feel his awful air.


    Luke reached out his arm and folded her in his arms. "Struggle as you like. My wounds may split


    open, but I don''t care."


    Eileen didn''t struggle but said, "Sleep."


    "Okay." Content with her reaction, he slowly closed his eyes and held her to sleep.


    Eileen''s heart was thumping because his arm was resting squarely on her chest.


    She had no idea if he had fallen asleep. Her face was flushed and burning. She lost sleep.


    He had never held her to sleep like this.


    Her heart was racing uncontrobly. His breath assaulted her neck, which further deprived her of


    her sleep.


    She tossed and turned. Not until midnight that she finally drifted off to sleep.
