Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 642

It was getting very late—the time Anastasia was supposed to be resting if she were at home. As a modern young woman, her sleep schedule wasn’t naturally so disciplined, but after Harrison had come home from working late a few times to find her playing games under the covers, he had become determined to instill in her the habit of sleeping and waking early. He was quite strict about it.

Only when a wave of drowsiness washed over her did Anastasia realize just how late it was. She hadn’t even eaten yet, and her stomach was aching with hunger.

Seeing her looking so drained, Harrison’s expression darkened. “It’s only been half a day, and you’ve managed to run yourself this ragged?”

“We were in meetings all day,” she explained weakly. “I just forgot to eat…”

Joseph quickly interjected, “The cafeteria has prepared a meal. You can all head over now.”

Anastasia wasn't the only one who had missed dinner; the others hadn't eaten either, so the cafeteria was still bustling with activity.

After a much-needed meal, it was finally time to head back to their rooms to rest.

By now, however, Anastasia was no longer sleepy. She rolled around on the bed before turning over and throwing her arms around Harrison, her voice brimming with excitement. “I confirmed it! The mutated Umbral Herb that Joseph developed—it’s the cure for you!”

“He’s already given it to me. We can start the treatment as soon as we get back tomorrow!”

Even Harrison, a man who rarely showed his emotions, felt a stir in his heart at the news.

He held her tightly, pressing a soft kiss to the crown of her head. “Alright.”

Seeing her so full of excitement, his heart melted. He had been angry about her lies and the risks she’d taken by running off to the institute. But when he remembered *why* she had done it, the anger simply evaporated. Any other time, he would have disciplined her, but today, a few sharp words were all he could bring himself to deliver.

Anastasia, however, was oblivious to his internal conflict. She was still celebrating her narrow escape, thinking he had simply forgotten to punish her.
