The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 2013

In a hotel located downtown, the wind and rain sneaked in through a slightly ajar window.

A gust of wind knocked a report from the table onto the floor, where some rainwater splattered on its pages.

The name, "Ayden," on the document blurred under the wet droplets.

At that moment, someone approached, bending over to pick up the document with a hand of distinct knuckles.

His eyes swept over a line of foreign text in the report.

The translation read, "The notorious Silverman Group heir from the H Country brutally murders his girlfriend. The 23-year-old woman from H Country had her organs and corneas removed in a gruesome death."d2

It had been ages since Wayne had slept so soundly. When he woke up, the day was just breaking. He felt his hand being held. Glancing sideways, he saw Rosalynn clutching his hand, sound asleep by his side.

She was a light sleeper. As Wayne stirred awake, Rosalynn woke up in alarm. She glanced at him, took a moment to react, and then sat up. "You're awake? Is it dawn already?"

Rosalynn looked towards the window.

The curtains were not fully drawn, allowing a glimpse of the dawning light.

"Did we sleep through the night like this?" Wayne asked with concern.

"I didn't realize I had fallen asleep." Rosalynn got up. "Ohh, my back…"

Wayne quickly reached out and pulled her into his arms.

"Don't do this next time. You can sleep by my side, and we can still hold hands," Wayne said seriously.

Rosalynn smiled. She nuzzled gently against his neck, "I got it."

"It's still early. You can sleep a bit more," Wayne knew that Rosalynn had probably been worrying about him overnight. He couldn't help feeling guilty.

"Then, I'll sleep for another half an hour..."

"Alright, I'll be here with you." Wayne kissed Rosalynn's forehead.

Rosalynn was still tired, but she couldn't actually fall back asleep.
