Soon, the man with glasses looked at the medical report. his face growing darker and darker, “You woke me up just to save this kind of person? I suspect you’re retaliating against me for eating your cake last time.”
If Evelyn’s physical condition could be considered unhealthy, then there would be no healthy people in the world.
Frank ignored the man’ words, his face filled with joy.
Evelyn also roughly understood why she ended up here. She glanced at the time and immediately stood up, “It’s almost midnight, let’s go back.”
Henry’s anesthesia should have worn off by now. His wound must be hurting a lot, and she needed to hurry back to accompany him.
Frank also understood Evelyn’s concerns and patted the man with glasses on the head, “Thanks for your help this time. I’ll keep your return to the family a secret.”
“As long as you don’t cause me trouble, I’ll be grateful.”
…
When they returned to the villa, it was already one in the morning.
Henry briefly woke up but fell asleep again.
Just as Evelyn was about to lie down beiside him, she saw the ring placed beside the pillow.
It was… her grandmother’s heirloom.
Last time, after almost being deceived by William, she had sought many opportunities to retrieve this ring, but it had already been sold by that scoundrel.
Evelyn turned to Henry and saw the wound on his palm caused by the ring. Everything became clear to her.
This man, seemingly shrewd, had actually done foolish things for her sake.
Evelyn’s eyes grew redder, tears falling like a dam breaking. But this time, Evelyn was wiser. She caught every tear with her hand to prevent them from falling on Henry’s face and waking him up again. He needed more rest.
Evelyn wiped away the tears from her palms, unsure of how much time had passed. Just as she was about to turn around, a warm hand grasped her wrist.
“Evelyn…”
Henry was awake now, but his delicate features couldn’t hide the weakness on his face. Due to excessive blood loss, his lips appeared unhealthy, even cracked with a wound.
“Do you want some water?” Evelyn asked.
“No, thank you…” He replied with a teasing smile, “My wife is already using tears to cleanse her hands. How could I dare to drink water?”
“You dare to joke?” Evelyn stomped her foot, tears streaming down again, “Do you know you almost died? Is it worth it for such a trivial thing?”
Henry gently pulled Evelyn to his side without saying a word, his eyes growing more determined.
“How is it not worth it? Even if it brings back one smile from you, it’s worth it.” he said.
Evelyn was at a loss for words. She lay down beside him, feeling oddly reassured despite the cramped space in the operating room bed where they couldn’t even move their bodies.
“You’ve suffered such serious injuries twice already. Aren’t you afraid of not being able to walk in the future?” Evelyn suddenly asked.
This time, no one responded to her. Henry closed his eyes with a tired expression and fell asleep again.
…
The next day, Evelyn woke up first.
“Make sure not to tell Henry about what happened last night,” she instructed David.
David nodded slightly. “Don’t worry, Madam.”
“The old master and Old Mrs Wilson have already gone back after knowing that boss is out of danger,” he added.
“Gone back?” Evelyn was surprised. Old Mr Wilson didn’t seem like he wanted to leave yesterday.
David felt a bit guilty but ultimately didn’t mention that Old Mrs Wilson had used the threat of divorce to persuade Old Mr Wilson to leave.
…
After breakfast, Frank came to change the bandages. When he saw the wound, he suddenly froze.
“How is it?” Evelyn asked nervously.
“It’s… It’s fine… recovering… quite well. I’ll go out and get him some more medicine,” He said, turning away.
Evelyn followed him, “Are you hiding something from me?”
Frank shook his head, “No, absolutely not.”
Evelyn clearly didn’t believe him.
“Fine, Fine..” Frank relented.
“Henry, he’s recovering very well, just… too well,” he explained.
“Is it because of my blood?” Evelyn frowned. Ever since she noticed her increasing strength, she had been suspecting that her rebirth body was somehow different from normal.
Frank couldn’t confirm, but he glanced at Evelyn, “If you have time, come to the hospital.”
“Got it,” Evelyn waved him off. “You can leave now.”
…
With Henry’s wounds fully healed by the fifth day, Evelyn shifted her focus to the promotional period for the game “Baby Angel.”
With the support of “The Last Man” and the recent Fashion Creating Awards win, Evelyn initially didn’t plan to hire celebrities for endorsements but rather participate in competitions and online promotions.
The influence of the Fashion Creating Awards attracted hundreds of thousands of players to “Baby Angel” as soon as it launched, marking a promising start.
As Evelyn was reading player comments, Luke entered with a serious expression.
