Your health will get worse if you don’t get enough sleep.” “I’ll see if Robert will wake up tonight.
I’ll sleep if he wakes up.” Elyette was much more relaxed than before.
“Go back to sleep, Shea.
Turn on the lights if you’re scared.” “Okay.
Can I go to the hospital tomorrow?
I’m worried about Robert.” “You can come if you want.” “Okay.
I’ll go tomorrow morning.
Elyette walked over to the intensive care unit and sat on a bench outside. Mike sat down next to him. “Go home and get some rest,” Elyette said. ” I’m used to staying up at night. I won’t be able to sleep if I went back now. ” Mike leaned back against the chair and scrolled through his phone.
“I’m looking for sources in Bridgedale… It’s not like people who have this rare blood type don’ t exist.
Why do you think nobody’ s donating?
Are we not offering enough money?” “Not everyone knows their blood type, and not everyone knows about our needs.” Elyette’s eyes were cold as he said, “The world’s bigger than we think it is.
Plenty of people live in areas with no electricity or water.
They don’t even know what the internet is.” Mike stared at him carefully and said, “That makes sense.
I think I know why all those women fall for you.
You’re capable, but you also sometimes drive people mad.” “Please elaborate.” Perhaps it was because of the silence of the night, but Elyette felt calmer.
“Do you know what I like about Chad?” Mike gave him an example and said, “We tell each other everything.
There are no secrets between us.
I think most couples are just like us.
You and Averie aren’t like that, though.
Maybe it’s because you’re someone who sits at the top of the pyramid, so you have more secrets that you can’t reveal to others.” Mike’s words turned Elyette silent.
“I can tell that you love each other, but you’ll only continue to fight endlessly if you don’t close the gap between the two of you.
She won’t marry you no matter how many kids you have and how much money you make,” Mike continued.
Elyette’s eyes glistened slightly as a hint of helplessness flashed across them.
“I don’t need her to marry me, Mike.
I just want Robert to get better and raise the children with her.” He lowered his gaze as he said indifferently, ” Someone like me is content with just being able to have kids.” “Is that really what you think?” Mike chuckled coldly.
“Yes.” “Then, what if Averie wants to get married?
What if she marries someone else in the future?
Would you be able to be so carefree?” Mike said emotionally.
Elyette felt a lump in his throat as he found it hard to answer his questions.
Of course, it would be impossible for him to be carefree.
He won’t marry, but he also did not want to see her get married.
Suddenly, the doors to the intensive care unit burst open as the doctor walked out.
“Robert ‘s condition is improving, Mr.
Foster, ” said the doctor excitedly.
“The blood transfusion worked!” Elyette <e.
:r Mike shot to their feet as different levels of joy appeared on their faces.
“Was the blood enough?” Elyette asked nervously.” It’s better if we had a little more as back—up.
His condition improved because he just got a blood transfusion.
We don’t know what will happen after this.” “I’ll go find more right away, ” Elyette said.
“Me, too!” Mike exclaimed.
The two men had planned on getting some rest after Robert woke up.
However, now that Robert’s condition had improved, they were even more afraid to fall asleep.
The next day, Averie arrived at the hospital accompanied by Mrs.Cooper.
After the doctor explained Robert’s condition to Averie, he said, “After Mr.
Foster found out that the blood transfusion worked last night, he immediately left to find more sources.
He’s been calling every two hours to ask about Robert’s condition.
I’ve never met a father as dedicated as he is.” The doctor’s words sent ripples running through Averie’s heart.
“Thank you,” she said hoarsely.
“I’m just doing my job.
By the way, a woman claiming to be Robert ‘s aunt came to see him this morning, ” said the doctor.
“She looked pale, so I asked her to go home and rest.” “Robert’s aunt?” Averie mumbled.
“Could it have been Shea?” she wondered to herself.
“Yes, her complexion was unusually pale.
She looked malnourished and hypovolemic, ” said the doctor.
“If she really was Mr.
Foster’s sister, you should warn him about this
Averie pulled out her phone, found Shea’s number, and dialed it. The call went through, but nobody answered. After the call was ended automatically, she called Wesley. Wesley very quickly answered the phone and said, “How are you doing, Averie?
How’s Robert’s condition?” “I’m doing well.
Robert’s also doing well right now… The doctor said that Shea came to the hospital this morning and that she looked very pale.
I tried calling her but there was no answer.
I’m a little worried about her.” Alarm bells began to ring in Wesley’s mind.
“I’ll go see her right now.” “Okay.
Let me know once you’ve seen her.
She usually looks just fine, why would she suddenly look pale?
If her complexion looks really bad, take her to the hospital for a check-up.” “Got it.” Wesley hung up the phone, then immediately called Shea’s bodyguard.
When the bodyguard picked up the phone, Wesley asked anxiously, “Where’s Shea right now?
Is she okay?” “She fell asleep in the car.
We’re almost home,” responded the bodyguard.
“Shea’s complexion doesn’t look great today, Mr.
Brook.
I wonder if it’s because she woke up too early this morning.” The bodyguard did not know that Shea had donated blood the night before The blood was drawn in Wesley’s father’s office.
“Take her home to rest.
I’m on my way over.” “Understood.” At the hospital, Averie was surprised when Henry’s family showed up.
“Averie, my parents wanted to come to see you a few days ago after hearing that you’d given birth, but my uncle said that you were in a bad mood so we didn’t end up coming,” Cole said.” How’s the baby doing?” “He’s fine for now,” Averie responded.
“That’s good.
Why isn’t my uncle here?” Cole asked curiously as he glanced around.
“He’s gone to find blood sources.” Averie turned to Henry and Olivia, then said, “The baby’s in the intensive care unit right now and can’t take visitors.
There’s nowhere here to entertain you either.” “That’s fine.
We just dropped by to take a look and will leave soon.” Olivia pulled out a packet of cash and said, “This is a small gift for Robert.
We hope he recovers and leaves the hospital soon.” Averie could not decline the gift, so she accepted it and said, “Thank you.” “You look a lot more haggard than before, Averie.” With a kind face, Olivia consoled her and said, “Robert will be fine as long as Elyette’s around to take care of him.
You shouldn’t worry too much and focus on your recovery.” “Averie is an amazing doctor.
She might be able to help in Robert’s treatment.
How could she recover in peace?” “Ah, I almost forgot about that.
Since Elyette isn’t here, then let’s have Cole stay here with you, ” said Olivia.
Averie immediately declined and said, “It’s fine.
There are doctors and the bodyguard here…” “Let me stick around for a while, Averie!
I’ll leave once my uncle gets back,” Cole said, cutting her off.
“Robert is my cousin, after all.” The word “cousin” made Averie fall silent.
Once Henry and Olivia left, Cole was much more relaxed.
“My parents want to have a good relationship with you and my uncle, Averie.
That’s what I want, too.
Since my grandmother passed away, my uncle’s never gone back to the old mansion.
The entire place is cold and quiet.
It shouldn’t be that way.
I’ll treat you as my aunt from now on and do whatever you tell me to do…” Averie raised her brows at him and said, “Is your company in trouble?
Do you need your uncle’s help again?” “How could you say something like that…” “Didn’t you say I’m your aunt?
Is that how you speak to your aunt?” Averie snapped.
“Listen up, Cole Foster.
If you want to kiss up to your uncle, go ahead and do it directly.
You’ll get nothing doing it through me,” Averie said, then shoved the packet of cash back to Cole and said, “Take this since you’re short on money!” Cole’s temples pulsed with anger, but he could only endure it.
