Chapter 1387 Waking Up

Micah slept fitfully throughout the day, waking up now and then to ask about the time and check on the kids and Sadie.

Every time he was told they were okay, he'd drift back to sleep. He wasn't hungry at all, just sipping some water to take his meds.

Around nine in the evening, he woke up again. "Is Sadie back yet?" he asked, his voice barely a whisper.

Andrew, always the picture of calm, replied, "Annika said they'll be at Mount Avalis for two more days. Ms. James was worried about you, but I told her you were fine and getting better." "Don't tell her about my condition," Micah ordered right away.

"Got it," Andrew nodded repeatedly. He knew this would stop Micah from asking more questions. Truth was, Micah was too sick to be his usual sharp self. Otherwise, Andrew wouldn't have been able to fool him. "Stop calling, or Sadie will get suspicious," Micah said tiredly, closing his eyes. "If she comes back, let me know."

"Will do, you can rest easy," Andrew said, tucking him in.
