Chapter 1457

Early in the morning, Sophie woke up to find Colby was already out of bed. Instinctively, she reached over, searching for him, and asked, "Colby... what time is it?"

The room was silent, with no sign of Colby. Sophie got up, realizing he must have left while she was still asleep.

After a quick wash, she headed downstairs. By then, Colby was back, sleeves of his black shirt rolled up, busy making breakfast in the kitchen.

"Up so early?" she remarked.

It was just seven o'clock.

Colby had been syncing his schedule with Sophie's, getting used to her routine.

"Come on, breakfast is ready," he said.

He'd made two sandwiches and a bowl of light oatmeal. Since Sophie's last injury, her health had been shaky. While recovering in the hospital, she'd been in and out with fevers, and lately, could only handle light meals. Sophie took a seat at the table. She'd slept deeply the night before, likely from sheer exhaustion, waking only with the dawn.

Colby settled next to her, gently gathering her hair up.
