Chapter 57 Dinner Together

The sky had turned dark by the time Eliza stirred again.

She tried to speak but still couldn't make a sound.

Then she felt hungry; she hadn't eaten anything the whole day. In fact, it was her hunger that woke her up…

Remnants of Tanner's scent lingered beneath the covers.

She struggled to sit up and noticed the study was still lit.

He was still working when it was already so late.

She was feeling much better after a long sleep, no longer weak.

After a stretch, she slowly lifted the covers, revealing her wrinkled bathrobe and smooth, fair legs. Then, she then straightened the bathrobe and stepped barefoot on the floor.

Eliza had a pair of beautiful feet, tiny, perfectly shaped, fair, and smooth.

The water on the coffee table had long turned cold. It wasn't until then that she realized Aunt Bell hadn't come back to her room; she hadn't even noticed when she had left after bringing the water up.

Still tasting a hint of medicine in her mouth, she decided to wash up.
