When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1401 Recorded In The Bedroom

Zachary had intended to say those very words, but Vivian had beaten him to it.

He was somewhat displeased, as though he had been rejected by Vivian.

"There's only one bed in the room, so how are we supposed to sleep separately? I'm not going to sleep on the couch or the floor." Zachary said that on purpose to see how Vivian would handle it.

Vivian didn't hesitate. Picking up her pillow, she said, "It's fine, I can sleep on the couch. Actually, I find it quite comfortable."

She was often scared to sleep alone in her room when she was younger, so she would frequently end up sleeping on the couch.

Therefore, she didn't think that there was anything amiss.

Zachary was taken aback. Soon, Vivian had already laid down and closed her eyes.

He took a deep breath, removed his coat, and laid down on the bed.

In truth, Vivian couldn't sleep at all. On one hand, it was due to the previous night's events. On the other hand, it was because she was sharing a room with Zachary.

Though they were a distance apart, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Zachary turned off the lights. Yet, for quite some time, he couldn't fall asleep.

"Vivian!" He couldn't help but call out.

After hearing that, Vivian asked in confusion, "What's up?"

"Do you want to sleep next to me?" Zachary felt making a woman sleep on the sofa was rather mean.

However, Vivian interpreted his words as an invitation. "No, haven't I made myself clear? We only got married for the sake of Grandpa. There shouldn't be any physical contact between us. Understood?" Zachary's expression darkened considerably.

"I wasn't planning on doing anything with you. I just think the bed is quite large. Even if we each sleep on one side, we won't end up touching. However, if you're not comfortable with it, forget it." Only then did Vivian realize that she had misunderstood him.

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood earlier. It's okay, I don't need to sleep on a bed."

She closed her eyes once again.

Just as the two of them settled into silence, an unexpected sound echoed through the empty room.

"You two little rascals. How dare you deceive an old soul like me, huh?"

It was George.

Vivian couldn't believe it. "Grandpa, did you set up surveillance cameras here?"

"Do

you think I'm such an unscrupulous person? This is your room. All did was have a listening device installed. I didn't expect you two to deceive me." George looked agonized. "Is it really okay foryou two to do this?"

Vivian breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, George did not camera. Otherwise, she

have been able to stay healt

However, Zachary was furious. "Grandpa, are you out of your mind? Why are you still coming up with these schemes at your age?" Suddenly, George began to cough violently.

"My rascal of a son is becoming more and more ungrateful. Ahem! Ahem!"

Upon hearing George's frail coughing Zachary quickly changed his tone. "Grandpa, I misspoke earlier. Vivian and I just aren't mentally prepared. We will eventually share a bed."

"Yeah. Grandpa, you shouldn't overthink it." Vivian chimed in.

George was like a mischievous elder. "Then you two should share a bed now. Don't make this old man worry about you two." "Fine."

Reluctantly, Vivian found herself sharing a bed with Zachary.

Meanwhile, in George's bedroom, Jonathan was shocked.

"Great-grandpa, your acting skills have really reached a new level," praised Jonathan.

George chuckled. "You taught me well. Without you, I wouldn't have known how to bring those two together."
