?Chapter 665:

    Cole said nothing as he slipped his shirt back on. But his eyes never left her.

    And just then, a yawn escaped her, long and unguarded. The adrenaline that had kept her going through sleepless nights on research and the whirlwind journey here was finally fading, leaving behind the heavy fog of exhaustion.

    Cole caught the look in her eyes and spoke gently. “You should get some rest. You lookpletely drained.”

    Elliana nodded with a sleepy hum, but then lifted a finger. “I will. Just onest thing I need to do first.”

    “What is it?” Cole asked, eyes narrowing slightly. He was like a cat on a hot tin roof these days, his heart instinctively tightening whenever Elliana mentioned any decision or event.

    Elliana pouted. “Honestly? I’m starving.”

    Right then, her stomach let out a loud, gurgling growl. She blushed a bit, an awkwardugh slipping out as she ced a hand over her belly.

    Before Cole could respond, his own stomach answered with an even louder grumble.

    Elliana burst intoughter. “Oh my! Looks like you’re quite hungry too, so I don’t need to feel embarrassed.”

    Cole smiled, amused. He reached out and gently ruffled her hair. “Alright. I’ll get us some food.”

    He picked up the phone and made a quick call to have breakfast brought to their room.

    Cole hadn’t been taking care of himselftely. Sleepless nights and skipped meals had left him looking tired and pale. Worried for him, Paulina had moved to the ind just to manage the kitchen and make sure he was eating properly.

    Momentster, the door opened. Paulina rolled in a cart, the smell of warm,forting food filling the room instantly. She offered a warm smile. “Mr. Evans, Ms. Marsh, breakfast is ready. Please enjoy.”

    Cole pulled out a chair for Elliana and guided her to the table.

    Paulina carefully began serving the dishes, casting a quiet nce at both of them. Cole looked worn down, the weight of his illness evident in his tired eyes. Elliana didn’t look much better—research and sleepless nights had left her equally drained.

    Paulina’s heart ached for them. As sheid out the tes, she spoke softly, “You both need to eat properly.”

    “Thank you, Paulina,” Elliana said, her smile full of gratitude. She picked up her fork and took the first bite, closing her eyes for a moment as the food began to ease the ache of her hunger.

    Cole, seated beside her, gently filled Elliana’s te before serving himself.

    Paulina stood nearby like a protective older sister, watching over them with soft eyes and a heart full of concern. Her expression was calm, but emotion lingered just beneath the surface. She noted that Cole hadn’t eaten properly in over ten days. Whenever he tried, he would take just a few bites before pushing the te away. But now, with Elliana beside him, something had changed. His appetite, long missing, had returned.

    Paulina exhaled softly, a silent sigh escaping her lips. The pair sat close, sharing a peaceful silence. Two souls, clearly still in love, were torn apart by a cruel illness. Psychephrenia had stolen so much from them, including their marriage. And now, it threatened to steal Cole’s memories too. If only time could pause here. If only the two lovebirds could stay in this quiet happiness a little longer.
