Chapter 1520
Ellinor was at a loss for words.
This old man was just as irritating as ever.
Marcus, who had been lounging around, suddenly stiffened at the sound of
footsteps outside the bedroom.
Ellinor also heard the footsteps, but she didn’t hurry. She drawled. “Hmm, when
you finally remember who I am, I'll be there to finish you off.”
As she spoke, the bedroom door handle was already being turned from the
outside.
Without a doubt, it was Sophia.
Marcus glanced toward the door as his pupils tightened. When he looked back at
the woman standing by the bed, she was gone, leaving behind only a gust of
wind.
The window was opened again, and the curtains were billowing with the breeze.
By the time Sophia pushed the door open, Marcus as the only one sitting up in
bed.
She switched on the light, asking with a hint of surprise, “Marcus, why are you
still awake?”
Marcus looked at her, his gaze clear. “Why aren't you asleep? What are you
doing here?”
“I came to check on Tristan. I'm afraid he might kick off the blankets. The
temperature’s been dropping these days, and I don’t want him to catch a cold.”
“Hmm. Thank you for your concern.”
In truth, Marcus was used to it. This had been their routine for the past three
years.
Although they didn’t share a room, Sophia would often get up in the middle of the
night to check on things. She came in nearly every night after he had fallen
asleep.
Whether she was worried about the child or him catching a cold, he didn’t know,
but her suspicions were definitely warranted.
Sophia smiled. “Don’t mention it. I'm Tristan’s mother; who else is going to care
for him if not me? By the way, Marcus, why don’t you close the window at night?”
Marcus's eyes shifted to the window. “I did, but the wind blew it open. I was just
about to get up to close it when you came in.”
Sophia moved toward the window as she spoke. “You're not as mobile, so let me
close it. Next time, just call me if this happens. I'm a light sleeper; I'll hear the
phone.”
“This is a minor matter; I can handle it myself. I don’t want to disturb your sleep
unnecessarily.”
Sophia closed the window and walked back to the bed, looking at Marcus with a
yearning look on her face. “Marcus, you really don’t have to be so formal with
me. We're married, and we have a child together. Even though you can’t
remember our past, Tristan is the proof of our relationship. I'm your wife; it's only
natural for me to care for both of you.”
Marcus nodded. “I know, but I've already burdened you enough. I don’t want to
inconvenience you any further.”

Despite her efforts, Marcus remained formal and distant.
Sophia felt a bit disappointed. She had been feeling restless and had trouble

well.
