The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 792

Just as Natalie was about to say goodnight, something caught her eye. "Why are you still in your street clothes? Didn't you say you were already in bed?"

Marico looked down. Sure enough, he was still fully dressed from going out.

"I... I like sleeping in my clothes. Got a problem with that?"

"Not my business. Have a good night."

Natalie hung up first. Marico let out a long breath, relieved he had managed to pull it off. He returned to Kristin's room to find the little girl yawning as she wrote, still a long way from finishing.

Marico felt a pang of sympathy. "How about I help you finish it?"

"No way. I have to do my own homework."

"Your teacher won't even check it."

"It doesn't matter if she checks it or not. We can't lie to ourselves."

Marico got properly lectured and immediately realized the error of his ways.

"I won't take you out late at night anymore."

Kristin nodded. "We can relax a little, but we have to know our limits. Got it?"

"Got it."

Because they had stayed up so late finishing her homework, Marico overslept the next morning, and so did Kristin. The two of them scrambled madly to get to school, but she was still late.

Marico practically begged the teacher not to call Natalie about it. Only when the teacher agreed did he finally let out a sigh of relief.
