Chapitre 813: Sick

Lily woke up shivering. Her gaze drifted to the ceiling as she snuggled deeper into the blankets. She didn't want to get out of bed. It wasn't just her horrid mood weighing her down, but the deep, dull ache spreading through her limbs, the kind that hinted at the onset of a fever. Her body felt chilled, even wrapped in the cocoon of blankets, and the mere thought of moving seemed unbearable.

Living in this oppressive silence had made every moment feel heavier, darker.
