Chapter 392

The next day.

As the sky was still dark when I opened my eyes, I figured it was only four or five in the morning.

Ashton was still in deep slumber. Hence, I tried to get back to sleep but to no avail.

Staring listlessly at the ceiling, I felt a sharp piercing pain in my head.

I decided to get up after a while. Ashton still had his arm wrapped around me. His eyes were still closed while he was in a groggy state.

“What’s wrong?” he asked in a raspy voice.

“Nothing. I’m just going to use the bathroom,” I replied while gently moving his hand away. As I got out of bed, I went to the bathroom and got some water to drink.

Despite not having much going on, I knew I couldn’t keep staying awake like that. Hence, I rummaged through the bedside table.

Before this, I had gotten the doctor to prescribe me some sleeping pills.

“What are you looking for?” Ashton opened his eyes and looked at me.

Pursing my lips, I replied, “I’m looking for… something. Did I wake you?”

He shook his head as he pulled me back up to bed. “I threw the pills away. Jared says it may turn into an addiction. Hence, you shouldn’t take them often.”

Grunting in acknowledgment, I massaged my head to ease the splitting headache I had, which made me feel irritable. “Only this one time.”

I wouldn’t be able to manage without it. After not sleeping a wink the whole night, I would be quick to anger the next day.
