Chapter 1817

Why arent you sleeping? Holden asked gently.

I was, but my phone buzzed with spam messages, waking me up.

I was just about to silence it, Ariana lied, carefully crafting her words.

Im feeling drowsy now, ready to slip back into sleep.

Dont worry about me; Im fine here.

If I need anything, Ill just ring the bell for the nurse.

However, Holden didnt leave.

He lowered his head and planted soft kisses on her hair, her eyelids, and her lips.

He said, I know youre missing Melon.

Arianas eyes brimmed with tears when she heard Holdens gentle words. Even though she knew Holden had seen through her, she clung desperately to her facade, burying her face against his chest.
