The Heart I Gave The Love I Lost

Chapter 77

As midnight approached, Maggie began to feel sleepy. She put down her book, turned off her bedside lamp, and lay down, ready to sleep.

She thought she might have trouble falling asleep, since it had been a long time since she

had shared a bed with Franklin.

However, she then realized that once Franklin finished his work, he might go out to be with

Julia. He wasn’t necessarily going to stay here overnight.

With this thought, she drifted off, unknowingly falling asleep amidst the rhythmic sound of

his typing.

She slept soundly, feeling the warmth of the covers. It was incredibly comfortable.

Just as she was about to get up, she suddenly felt a warm breath on her ear.

When she realized what was happening, her body stiffened, and her consciousness instantly snapped awake.

She opened her eyes and saw that she was lying on her side, in Franklin’s embrace.

He had both arms wrapped around her, and his legs were entangled with hers, sleeping

deeply.

The two of them were so close, there was almost no space between them.

Maggie could clearly feel the warmth of his chest and hands…

She was sure that she had been sleeping quite peacefully the previous night.

Before falling asleep, she had intentionally turned to lie on the edge of the bed, thinking that even if she ended up in the same bed with Franklin, there would be a large gap
