Chapter 457 Were You Afraid?

From the moment Jason got out of bed, he sensed it. He didn't move, though. Instead, he watched her with great interest as the reflection of the scene outside the window played on the glass.

As Aletta approached, exuding a fragrant and delicate aura, a slight smile formed on Jason's lips. He turned around and looked at her, in a good mood, asking, "Were you awake?"

Aletta nodded, glancing at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window. Compared to the artificial lighting of the previous night the view then was noticeably more expansive and impactful.

Just as Aletta was about to enjoy it fully, she noticed the man. beside her staring down at her feet, furrowing his brows slightly. He said, "Why weren't you wearing shoes? The floor was cold!"

"I wanted to surprise you," Aletta replied with a smile.

Before she could finish her sentence, the next second, the man scooped her up in his arms. She obediently wrapped her arms. around his neck, allowing him to hold her.

Jason carried her back to the bed and then fetched her shoes. Aletta obediently put them on, rubbed her sleepy eyes, stretched her body, and finally asked, "When did you wake up?"

"It's been a while," Jason raised his hand, tidying up her slightly dishevelled hair. He said, "Go freshen up. I went to notify the hotel to deliver breakfast to the room."

Aletta nodded and said, "Okay."

After that, Aletta quickly got up and went into the bathroom to freshen up. When she came out, she noticed that breakfast hadn't arrived yet, but Jason was on the phone.

Aletta noticed he was using her phone and heard him say, "Alright, got it."

Ending the call, Aletta walked over and immediately asked, "Who was it?"

Jason's tone became slightly heavy as he said, "It was Lewis. She wanted me to bring you back this afternoon. The antidote experiment is complete, and the treatment may begin this afternoon."

Upon hearing this, Aletta's eyes lit up with joy. She said excitedly, "Really? That's great! If I could recover sooner, we could go back early!"
