Chapter 1263:

Fiona sat on the bed, her body barely covered by a thin blanket. Her disheveled hair fell around her face, and she appeared weary and fragile. Elyse stood just outside the room, gripping the iron bars, her emotions tangled as she gazed at Fiona.

After a long silence, Elyse finally spoke, her voice soft.

“Fiona.” At first, Fiona didn’t hear her. Elyse stepped closer and repeated her name.

This time, Fiona lifted her head, her face a portrait of exhaustion. Her eyes were hollow, lifeless, as if the spark inside her had long since vanished.

Startled by Fiona’s appearance, Elyse called her name again, her voice thick with emotion.

“How are you? Are you holding up?”

Fiona fixed her gaze on Elyse, her expression cynical.

Elyse let out a small chuckle. “Oh? And what kind of person is that?”
