He knew she hadn't slept well for the past couple of days. Not wanting to disturb her, he simply grabbed a blanket and tossed it over her before heading to the study.
Even the light action of the blanket landing on her was enough to startle Eudora awake.
Her eyes sprung open, and her energy seemed to improve significantly.
After resting for a while, she went to the bathroom to bathe and change. Then she picked a book from the study and started reading it on the couch.
