But in reality, he hadn't closed his eyes for a minute last night, Hope Williams had been plagued by nightmares all night, unable to sleep peacefully, and he simply had no inclination to rest, staying by her side throughout.
Hope Williams cast her eyes downward, not saying anything. She felt sorry for Waylon Lewis, insisting on feeding herself to allow Waylon Lewis to have a proper breakfast.
Waylon Lewis let her be, and ate with her.
After breakfast, Hope Williams felt much better.
She organized some chaotic thoughts in her mind, glanced at the phone on the table and said, "Waylon Lewis, could you hand me my phone?"
"Rest well."
"I feel much better today than yesterday, I want to look at my phone for a bit," Hope Williams insisted, pleadingly looking at Waylon Lewis.
Waylon Lewis, seeing her face indeed looked better than yesterday and seeing her insistence, had no choice but to hand her the phone, "Just for a bit."
"Uh-huh, just for a bit," Hope Williams nodded obediently.
