Furthermore, it was Lyke Zhekova's house, the thought of sleeping under the same roof as Lyke.
The scenes of Lyke approaching her earlier kept flashing through her mind.
How could Peggy Lewis sleep?
She was too timid to ask directly.
Peggy Lewis lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
She thought about talking to Cindy Clarke, but for some reason, it was hard to put into words. She didn't know how to tell Cindy that she was now living in Lyke's uncle's house.
She reached for her mobile phone, only to put it down again.
With no other choice, she closed her eyes and forced herself to fall asleep.
Lyke Zhekova went to his bedroom as well.
He didn't sleep, but was reading a book instead.
Whether he was able to focus on it was another matter.
Anyway, he hadn't turned a page for a long time.
He didn't sleep because he couldn't.
Apart from the fact that Peggy Lewis was just next door, he was waiting for a phone call.
