Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)
Chapter 316

The next day.

Because I had stayed up late the night before, I woke up particularly late that morning. By the time I opened my eyes, it was already nine o'clock.

After stretching out a yawn, I found that Jaylan was still asleep, showing no signs of waking up.

I reached out and gave his face a light tap, and he just moved his arm slightly.

It made me think of how I felt when I was in a deep sleep, and now he was experiencing the same thing.

"Wake up, why are you still in bed? Are you feeling unwell?" I asked, pretending to be concerned, and pushed him slightly. He reluctantly opened his eyes, looking dazed and unfocused.

It suddenly reminded me of how Milo looked when he accidentally ate my medicine. When he was trying to wake up, only his limbs could move at first, and then he gradually became conscious. "Are you feeling unwell?" I asked again.

He grunted twice, trying hard to focus his eyes on me, his words slurred, "Hmm... I'm really tired. I think I've been too busy these past few days..."

He turned over, looking completely drained, and let out a long sigh.

Seeing his state, I snorted coldly, thinking, 'I have to make you taste this feeling, to experience the helplessness of not being able to wake up.'

Wasn't I just getting a taste of his own medicine, feeling exactly what he must have felt? Looking coldly at him struggling between sleep and wakefulness, wasn't this the exact scene when he was standing by my bed?

He probably never thought that he would have this day, to experience such a 'refreshing' feeling.

I ignored him and quickly got out of bed. I had a lot to do today and didn't have time to watch his melancholy. Not treating him to this every day was already a mercy on my part. After freshening up and leaving the bathroom, I glanced at the loser on the bed, who was still struggling in a half-asleep, half-awake state.

I went downstairs, and Hannah had already prepared breakfast.

Seeing me come down, she glanced upstairs and raised an eyebrow.

I understood what she meant and said indifferently, "He's still asleep. Let's eat first!"

Hannah seemed a bit skeptical, "Isn't he a bit too much? It's already this late and he's still sleeping?"

I raised my eyebrows, saying, "I suffered a lot from that thing, and I wanna make him experience the same torment. I want him to feel it!"

Hannah's expression immediately brightened, "So you're saying..."

"Eat up. We need to head out later!" I interrupted Hannah, not letting her continue.

Hannah immediately sat down and asked, "Where are we going?"

As I took a bowl of oatmeal, I glanced at her, "I want to visit Jerome's place."

"Ah?..." Hannah looked surprised, but immediately started eating faster.

"I want to see Camilla and Fidelia Dawson."

Hannah looked understanding and sped up her eating.

"Actually, I want to get a closer look at Jerome. His sudden disappearance has left me feeling a bit surprised. I want to understand how this family of three has been living." That was my thought.

I also wanted to understand Camilla's mindset more deeply.

Moreover, it was time for me to break free from this vortex and move on.

So this was a good way to get closer to them, especially since Fidelia had agreed to go to Silverdale City.

After breakfast, I called Camilla, who said she was out and would be back soon.

I told Hannah, "We should leave soon!"

Hannah looked at me, smiled knowingly and said, "To catch them by surprise?"

I smiled back and was about to leave when I saw Jaylan appearing on the staircase, yawning and stretching lazily as he descended the stairs. In this state, he looked extraordinarily sloppy, nothing like his usual handsome self.

Seeing me all dressed up, he asked in surprise, "Honey, are you going out? Where are you going this early?"

I smiled faintly and replied, "It's not early. You woke up late today, it's almost ten o'clock!"

He looked startled and glanced out the window in disbelief, "It's ten o'clock already?"

"Hurry up and have your breakfast! It will get cold soon. I'm going out, so I won't be able to join you!" I said and then looked at him again, "If you're feeling unwell, I can accompany you to the hospital. I haven't completed my discharge procedures yet!"

As expected, he immediately waved his hand, "I'm okay. You go ahead! Be careful!"

I replied with a nod, turned around and walked out. As I was leaving, I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and snort. Hannah was already waiting by the car. I got in, glanced at the still-lazy Jaylan through the window, and said, "Let's go!"
