Chapter 1888

As the night grew darker, the lights were still on in the study of Cyrus’ villa.

Wearing a comfy bathrobe, Cyrus climbed the stairs at a leisurely pace to check on someone engrossed in books in the study.

He gently opened the study door and peeked at the scene behind the desk.

Noelle, resembling a lazy cat, lay sprawled across the desktop, sound asleep.

Cyrus, feeling frustrated, pushed the door wide open.

He entered without bothering to muffle his footsteps.

However, Noelle remained deep in her sleep.

He cleared his throat and coughed, making a concerted effort to wake the drowsy Noelle.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and met Cyrus’ gaze.
