Walter and April along with Miles trickling in later on. Ivy felt like all she did today was introduce herself over and over again!
Camdyn couldn’t contain his happiness seeing all these young people gathered together!
However, Camdyn quickly realized a problem. Ash and Mikayla didn’t show up.
This wouldn’t do. He was planning on exchanging bird-raising tips with that girl Mikayla. How could he let his little friend not come?
Camdyn asked, “Didn’t you tell Mikayla?”
Casey immediately raised her hand and said, “I told them in the group chat but they didn’t respond.
Maybe they didn’t see it.”
Upon hearing this, Camdyn became even more unhappy and said, “Couldn’t you just call them?”
Casey stuck out her tongue and said, “Oops, I forgot.”
Aimee said, “Grandpa, I’ll call them right now.”
Camdyn huffed as he stared at Aimee.
Patrick was a bit speechless and he felt like their grandpa was getting more and more strange lately.
He couldn’t remember when it started but it seemed like the old man’s temper had returned to his youth
– which wasn’t good news at all! Just like now – his temper flared up for no reason at all.
Aimee made two phone calls but nobody answered on the other end of the line. However, she wasn’t worried about Ash or Mikayla getting into trouble though.
“If something really happened, she would have received a message. But now, in a safe situation, she hasn’t answered the phone. This means that these two people are either unable to answer the phone or too tired to do so.” Aimee put away her phone and said to Camdyn, “Grandpa, they’re probably still resting. I’ll call them later.” Her words were clear enough.
It was hard not to imagine what they might be doing while still resting at this time. Everyone looked at
Aimee together. After all, it was her own sister who was involved.
At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but sigh inwardly: Ash is really not a good person.
However, there seemed to be nothing unusual about Aimee’s expression as everyone looked at her. It made them realize that Aimee was someone who didn’t speak much but had a strong character when it came to certain things.
Casey rolled her eyes and leaned towards Kelvin saying, “You friend is quite something.”
Kelvin raised an eyebrow and looked down at Casey saying, “What? Am I not good enough?”
Casey was speechless. Was that what she meant?
She thought Ash was very brave, daring to take away her sister Mikayla before school even started.
She wanted to give him a big thumbs up and tell him he was a hero.
Kelvin whispered in Casey’s ear, “Do you think you have it easier than Mikayla?”
In reality, Aimee might care more about Casey than Mikayla.
And when it came to the difficulty of being together, it was clear that Casey’s had a harder time. Plus there was Patrick who didn’t like Kelvin.
Casey thought carefully and realized that this was true. She gave Kelvin a big thumbs up and said,
“Honey, you’re my hero.”
He laughed and whispered in her ear again with an electric sensation, “I’m willing to do anything for you.”
Casey was instantly moved to tears as she looked at Kelvin and said, “Honey, you love me so much.”
Kelvin smiled back at her, “Yes I do love you.”
Casey lifted her chin proudly again and said, “I also love you very much!”
Finally Kelvin couldn’t resist any longer, leaned down and kissed Casey on the lips.
Quietly watching everything, Ivy couldn’t help but tug on Damion’s arm and whisper in his ear, “Damion,
Casey and her husband are so in love.”
Damion looked down at Ivy and naturally saw the envy in her eyes. He said, “We will be too.”
Ivy’s face immediately turned red with joy. She wanted to get closer to Damion and kiss him hard on the lips. But she was too timid to do it.
She really envied Casey’s passionate expression of love.
Damion squeezed Ivy’s hand and said, “Everyone has their own way of expressing themselves. Just be yourself.”
Ivy blinked her eyes a few times, feeling a bit dazed. She realized that he knew what she was thinking all along.
Once again touched by Damion’s words, Ivy felt like she loved him more every day.
Her hand snuggled even further into Damion’s palm as she said, “I understand now. I won’t envy others anymore.”
Damion smiled slightly but didn’t tell Ivy that he actually preferred her passionate side ??the one only he got to see.
Ash and Mikayla were misunderstood. It wasn’t what everyone thought when they didn’t answer their phones.
It all started three days ago when Ash was working on a data project that required his full attention, leaving him no time to spend with Mikayla. However, Mikayla wasn’t clingy and could occupy herself while Ash was busy.
But with school starting soon for her in Innisrial, she would have to leave for a month of military training.
This made Mikayla unhappy, so after Ash finished his work, she suggested they challenge themselves by staying up as long as possible without sleeping.
Ash agreed without hesitation and they spent the next three days watching movies, playing games and eating junk food at home. They watched over a dozen movies from different eras and countries.
Despite their fun-filled time together, others assumed the worst about why they weren’t answering calls or texts. But in reality, Ash and Mikayla were just enjoying each other’s company before being separated by school obligations.
During this period, Mikayla was so tired that she could barely keep her eyes open, but because Ash was still going strong, she refused to sleep and insisted on competing with him.
Ash found her stubbornness incredibly adorable.
In reality, he didn’t want her to exhaust herself like this.
However, the girl had a strong will and insisted on proving herself through this competition. She absolutely would not allow Ash to let her win.
As for Ash himself, he really didn’t have much of a need for sleep. He had learned from Aimee at a young age that she didn’t require much sleep either. At first he tried to resist it himself but eventually realized that he couldn’t compete with Aimee’s natural talent and had to learn from her instead.
Unfortunately for him, Aimee’s unique constitution couldn’t be replicated in him. He could only rely on training and some medication assistance from Aimee in order to function without sleep during missions.
Seeing Mikayla trying so hard against him made Ash realize just how brave she was.
He tried several times to coax Mikayla into sleeping but the stubborn girl wouldn’t listen no matter what he said or did. Even though she was swaying on her feet from exhaustion, she refused to give up and go rest.
What could he do? He chose his girlfriend after all. Now it was up to him alone take care of her needs.
Finally last night Mikayla came face-to-face with one fact: even if she were trying not to get any rest at all, there was no way that she could outlast Ash in their competition.
So, Mikayla tilted her head and leaned on Ash’s shoulder, falling into a deep sleep.
Ash felt both heartbroken and amused. Sleeping like this was really not good for her health.
When she woke up, he would have Aimee check to make sure there were no problems from staying up too late.
After kissing Mikayla’s face, Ash himself was about to pass out. He hugged the girl and fell asleep with her in his arms.
This nap felt like they had both passed out completely. No sound could wake them up now.
With the way they were sleeping, even if Aimee called them or an earthquake or tsunami hit, and even if the sky fell down on them, it wouldn’t be enough to wake them up.

Come on, how many chapters do you want to read this weekend?
10, 15 or 20? ^^
After sleeping for twenty-one hours straight, Mikayla finally woke up.
Ash had woken up earlier and saw that she was sleeping soundly, so he didn’t bother waking her up.
Little did he know that she wouldn’t wake up on her own.
Halfway through the day, Ash realized that it wasn’t good for Mikayla’s health to sleep for such a long time. He tried to wake her up but was unsuccessful.
It wasn’t until three in the morning when Mikayla finally opened her eyes. She was still a bit groggy and didn’t even know where she was at first.
Ash heard some movement and turned on the bedside lamp. When he looked down at Mikayla’s sleepy face, he couldn’t help but smile and give her a kiss on the cheek.
You’re so cute when you’re half asleep,” Ash said as he kissed her again.
Mikayla looked at him dazedly and asked, “What time is it?”
“It’s three in the morning,” Ash replied. “Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?”
“No, I’m not hungry but thirsty,” Mikayla said with a sore throat starting to develop from all of the sleep she had gotten.
Ash grabbed a cup from the nightstand and said, “I knew it! I made some tea for you. It’s good for your throat.”
He handed over the cup of tea to Mikayla who gratefully took it from him.
Mikayla gulped down a big cup of water, relieving the discomfort in her throat. It also made her completely awake.
She reached out to Ash and snuggled up against him, burying herself in his arms.
Ash hooked his arm around her waist and lifted Mikayla up. “I bought some porridge. Let’s have some, okay?”
Mikayla wrapped her hands and feet around Ash’s body, swaying back and forth while asking in a sweet voice, “What kind of porridge? I want preserved egg and beef porridge.”
“I knew you’d want that,” Ash replied with a smile.
Mikayla was instantly overjoyed like a child. She swung her legs back and forth before leaning over to kiss Ash on the cheek. “You’re so good to me.”
