Megan's pov I woke up and found my side to be empty. I was cold which shows that he must have left for a long time. I rose up and carefully walked to the bathroom to bathe. I wore a simple dress and strolled out of the room. The dining room was deserted, so I checked the wall clock. My eyes widened at the time it was, past 11 am. I had no idea I had slept for so long. The maid brought my food and I ate it alone. I was bored and I had no appetite for food now but I knew I had to eat for my health. When I was done, I asked the maid to fetch my phone and a novel for me in our room. The maid brought it for me and I settled outside the house and engrossed in the book. I was still focused on the book when hurried footsteps distracted me. I looked up and saw the children running towards me.
