Harold stood by the bed where Alicia was sleeping as he watched the head chef and some of the maids set several meals on the large table at one end of his chamber. Immediately they were done, they bowed to him and quickly exited the chamber.
Once they left, he sat down on the bed beside Alicia and he looked down at her sleeping figure. He wanted her to wake up as soon as possible, but another part of him wanted her to remain asleep until she felt no pain anymore. He didn't want her to bear the pain, he thought as he gently touched her hair.
Alicia was now wearing a loose peach-coloured robe, and her hair was knotted at the back. He had ordered a female physician to clean her up and change her robe and had also instructed her to do the same for Paulina.
