章 297: Bottom of the food chain

Waking up in his arms this early morning was not an extraordinary event in their morning routine. It never got old or tiring. The only difference from the previous times, she was now his fiancé.

She had assumed that if her relationship with him continued to work out, she would eventually marry him. But she always thought that it would take time before that would happen and not just in a matter of months.

"What are you thinking?" He partially opened one eye while struggling with the other as he stared at her face. 

The sun had not fully set, so it was not that bright in the room yet. But he could see her beautiful eyes studying him. He would have done the same thing if he wakened up before her.

From his limited observation, he could see that she was deep in thought about something. Two topics led the charts. One, their engagement. Two, her father's operation.
