Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 842:

She understood that this was a manifestation of his inner strength. Each time Paul approached the edge of a mental breakdown, this strength urged him not to succumb to the pain but to observe the past with detached clarity.

After six exhausting hours, Paul was visibly drained, prompting Marissa to stop. However, instead of waking Paul up, she gently commanded that he drift into a deep sleep.

Paul was already on the brink of exhaustion, and rousing him immediately would only worsen his fatigue. Marissa wanted to ensure he got the rest he desperately needed. As Paul’s emotions finally settled and he drifted into sleep, Marissa let out a sigh of relief and carefully shifted her position.

She had to wait on fate for any chance of sleep. It would be more than ten days before the Serene Rest Pills would arrive. Asking Connor to sleep beside her was out of the question. She had no idea how she would survive the coming days. If she remained awake for too long, she feared her body might simply give out.

As if on cue, Ferris suddenly messaged her. “Riss, I’ve got great news. The materials for the Serene Rest Pills arrived ahead of schedule. I’ve already got our team working overtime to make them, and they’ll be ready by tomorrow.”

I’ll head back to Blebert tomorrow,” Marissa replied, feeling a wave of relief wash over her.
