    Chapter 585 An Out


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    When ric realized the possibility of this issue, he could barely maintain the smile on his face. As a


    father, he couldn’t wait toy in bed with his wife and kids, especially since he had lost his wife once.


    But if there’s no space for me here…


    At the thought of this, he pulled a long face. If this was happening in his own house, he would ask


    someone to deliver a new bed on the same night. Forget it. I think there’s formaldehyde in a new bed.


    In the past, ric would never consider this issue, but now that he was a father of two, he started to


    consider safety issues. Even if a new bed is delivered, we can’t use it right away. The bed has to be


    ordered ahead and the formaldehyde removed before it can be used, he thought and made a decision


    in his heart to make a call back home and order a new bed once the kids were asleep.


    The three people in bed had no idea what was going on in ric’s mind, but when Victoria saw him


    coming over, she gently told the kids to make some space. So, the three of them moved to the side a


    little and scrounged up a small spot for ric.


    ric nced at the empty spot. It would fit him if he remained a motionless statue, but he wouldn’t be


    able to turn or flip to his side at night.


    An embarrassed Victoria looked at the small spot and said, “I think the bed is too small. Why don’t


    you-


    She wanted to suggest that he sleep in the next room ory out a mattress on the floor, but before she


    could say it out loud, he paced over and made himself asfortable as he could in that spot.


    “It’s just nice,” ric said immediately the instant his back touched the bed, worried that Victoria might


    send


    him elsewhere.


    She propped herself on one arm and looked at him in the small spot in utter bafflement. He can’t even


    move an inch in that spot, but he says it’s just nice?


    Even the outspoken Nicole noticed the issue and pointed at his spot after sitting up. “Daddy, that spot


    you’re sleeping in is too small.”


    Showered in their concerned gazes, ric forced out a smile. “No, it’s not. I think it’s just nice.”


    “Daddy.” Nicole frowned as she continued to stare at him. “That spot is really too small!”


    ric didn’t say a word as he pursed his lips, not knowing how to convince the mother and daughter


    duo to leave it well alone. Just when he thought that Nicole would ask him to sleep elsewhere because


    the spot was too small, she suddenly wriggled her butt backward. “Don’t worry, Daddy. I’ll make more


    space for you.”


    All the worries he had disappeared, and his heart melted at her actions. “Nicole…”


    That exined why the Inte always imed that daughters were far more caring than sons. Now he


    had actual proof that the Inte ramblings were true. Previously when Nathan wasn’t interested in


    interacting with him, Nicole was already very friendly with him. She even decided to squish herself


    further so that he could sleep better.


    Although he was touched, he didn’t move and merely gazed at her adorable face, saying gently, “It’s


    okay, Nicole. I can sleep here. If you keep moving backward, you’ll have no space left for yourself.”


    She blinked at him and answered with an innocent expression, “No, Daddy. There’s space because


    Mommy will hold me while I sleep at night.” Then, she scurried into Victoria’s embrace right before his


    eyes, as though she


    was taking refuge within her arms.


    This sight immediately made him jealous, and all the heartwarming feelings he had earlier evaporated.


    Instead, he thought that she was deliberately showing off. Of course, it was an indirect and


    unintentional act.


    Nheless, it was exactly because of this that she had deliberately rolled over for him. At first, ric


    merely wanted to lie in his spot because he was worried that Victoria would send him out of the room if


    he had taken the space from her kids. Yet, judging from the situation now, he reckoned that wouldn’t be


    happening and it would be fine if he discretely wriggled closer to them.


    So, it was with this thought in mind that he scooted closer to his family. As he expected, Victoria, who


    had Nicole in her arms, said nothing, and he inched in closer.


    The scent of his shower gel traveled up Victoria’s nose, along with a little humidity, and she flinched.


    “It’ll be too cramped if youe any closer.”


    ric had nned to continue snuggling toward them if she hadn’t voiced her objection. Regardless,


    he stopped moving upon hearing that, ced his arms over his chest, and tried his best not to squeeze


    toward them. His every move and expression were incredibly humble, and he sighed wearily.


    “It’s gettingte. Let’s sleep.”


    It wouldn’t be an issue for the adults if they stayed up a couple more hours at night, but that was not


    the case for the children. Children had to adhere to a strict and healthy bedtime. So, Victoria didn’t say


    anything more. Instead, she told the children to go to sleep, asked ric to switch off the lights, and


    went to bed holding the


    kids.


    Nathan obedientlyy on his side and drifted off to sleep very quickly after closing his eyes. On the


    other hand, Nicole yed with Victoria’s hair to pass the time. Then, she started fidgeting with the


    buttons on her pajamas, moving around, and even bbering, “Mommy, this is the first time we’re


    sleeping with Daddy.”


    Kids had always been bold with their words. Besides, they didn’t know that Victoria had lost her


    memory because the adults had no intention of letting the kids learn about it. Nheless, they didn’t


    expect Nicole to


    suddenly blurt out something like that.


    ric had just switched off the lights and was about to rest when she said that, and he froze. In the


    dark, Victoria could see the tense line of his shoulders under the weak moonlight and could clearly see


    him holding his breath. She sighed inaudibly at the sight.


    When she saw the Facebook post before this, she already had an idea that things weren’t so simple


    between her and ric. However, she wasn’t expecting a child to put it out there on the table.


    On the other hand, ric merely froze for a second under the cover of darkness before he joined them


    in bed again as though nothing had happened.


    In the beginning, Victoria could feel that his breathing was uneven, but slowly, he started to breathe


    normally again. As she could only see his figure in the dark and not his face, she couldn’t see what


    expression he had


    either.


    Nevertheless, she could still hazard a guess, and she bet that he might not sleep well tonight. She


    wanted to say something, but it would sound weird if she said something now.


    “Mommy?” Nicole called in bafflement when she didn’t receive an answer, but unfortunately, Victoria


    didn’t answer her. “Are you asleep, Mommy?” she inquired.


    Still, there was no answer. Next to them, ric held his breath as he listened to the conversation. After


    a few seconds, he said in a soft voice, “Nicole, maybe Mommy is already asleep. You should be good


    and go to sleep. early, okay?”


    Victoria breathed a sigh of relief as she had no idea how to answer Nicole. Thus, when ric answered


    her on her behalf, she couldn’t help but feel grateful to him. Frankly, she wasn’t prepared to uncover


    the truth now because she had no idea what was going on. Moreover, his exnation provided her


    with a good way out of


    the situation.
