At this moment, seeing Charles sleeping so quietly was a first for Noelle. She propped her elbows on the bed with a smile on her face, watching his pure and innocent sleeping face with great interest. It seemed that his alertness was very high. Noelle had only been watching for a short while when Charles suddenly opened his eyes.

The sharpness in his eyes was evident the moment he awoke. However, upon realizing it was her, his gaze softened gradually. He smiled lightly, his deep voice resonating in her ear. "Awake already?"

Noelle protested, "It's not early. It's already past eight."
