Chapter 723

Tarquin's heart was hammering, "Oh, good."

He hurried after Elysia into the hospital room.

Inside, there was a small table. Elysia took out some late-night snacks and set them up, beckoning him over, "Come on, have something to eat."

Tarquin was pleasantly surprised, looking like a kid who thought he'd done something wrong, carefully watching Elysia's expressions and cautiously making his way over.

His cautious demeanor caught Elysia's eye, and she felt a pang of sympathy.

She wanted to say something to comfort him but didn't know what to say, so she chose silence.

She quietly handed him a fork, and Tarquin quickly reached out to take it.

With her not speaking, he didn't even dare to breathe too loudly.

After the late-night snack, Tarquin insisted on cleaning up the table, and Elysia didn't fight him for the task.

She went to the bathroom, and when she came out, she started making the bed.
