Chapter 421

Bridget tightened her hands around the quilt, not knowing how to explain it.

"Why don't the newlyweds sleep together?”

"Mom... Jacob threw up on that quilt. I'll take it downstairs and wash it." Bridget found an excuse after a while of pondering.

Daisy stretched her brows and asked with concern, "Did he drink too much?"

Bridget nodded slightly.

"Then you need to take good care of him," Daisy said.

Daisy was more or less concerned. Anyway, Jacob knew everything from Bridget's past. Now they were together. Jacob chose a woman who had married once. She felt somewhat sorry for him. Daisy was worried and reached for the quilt in Bridget's hand. "Give it to me. Go back to your room and take care of him."

Bridget avoided her hands. "Mom, it's okay. I will do it myself.”

Daisy looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost midnight. "Don't wash it now. It's late. You should go back to sleep.”

Bridget gripped the quilt tightly, failing to find a suitable excuse. It seemed that Daisy would not let go unless she came back to her room.

Bridget had no choice but to go back.

Jacob didn't sleep. He was sitting on the bed. He heard the talk between Daisy and Bridget.

He was not surprised to see Bridget come in. He stood up from the bed. "You can sleep here.” Bridget stood by the door with the quilt in her arms. There were only a bed and cabinets in her room, not even a sofa. If she slept on the bed, how about Jacob then?

"What about you?" Bridget didn't move.

Jacob glanced around the room and failed to find any suitable place to sleep. Finally, he pointed at the bedside and said, "I'll sleep on the ground tonight.”

"It's almost November.” The ground must be super cold.

Bridget handed the quilt to Jacob, then moved the quilt on the bed away, with a space left. "We both have a quilt and we can share the bed."

After moving the quilt, Bridget looked up at Jacob.
