Chapter 836

“What are you doing up?”

Isaac strode in with a tray in hand, quickly advancing to her side. He set the tray down and helped her up, “Hungry?”

Brittany’s eyes were brimming with tears, “I feel awful.”

Every inch of her ached.

Isaac settled her back on the bed and slid a pillow behind her lower back, “Don’t move, I’ll feed you.”

Too exhausted to protest, Brittany opened her mouth to accept the morsels.

The spicy crab, though reheated and having lost some of its former glory, still retained its delicious flavor.

Isaac’s fingers deftly cracked the crab, and Brittany ate heartily, her mouth slick with juices. Between bites, she also savored a bowl of beef stew, contentedly lying back down after feeling satiated.

Brittany, likely exhausted, curled up under the covers and lazily reached out, grabbing his hand, “Stay with me.”

Isaac hesitated for a few seconds before responding, “Alright, I’m going to take a shower,” When he emerged from the bathroom, Brittany was already asleep.
