Willow summoned the gynecologist in the end.
After a thorough examination, the doctor gave his diagnosis. “Mr. George, the baby is still safe for now. However, the mother cannot take any more risks. It’s best that she stays in bed for the whole month to ensure that she gets sufficient rest.
“One month?”
Willow widened her eyes in disbelief.
She has to be on bed rest for that long? So…
She turned around to look apprehensively at the man who was wiping his nose with a tissue.
The man, however, seemed unfazed. After wiping off the blood on his nose, he tossed away the bloodstained tissue and walked over to Willow’s side.
“Then make sure she stays in bed for one whole month!”
“Huh?”
Taken aback by the instruction, the doctor lifted his head to regard the man, “Mr. George, do you mean…”
Solomon replied with an impassive expression, “She’s too used to going out and about. Unless you immobilize her for the time being, she will never stay in bed as told.”
Both the doctor and Willow were at a loss for words.
An awkward silence stretched between the three of them for what felt like an eternity before the doctor decided to break the silence and nodded. “All right then, Mr. George.”
Then, he injected Sabrina, who was still unconscious on the bed, with a type of medicine.
After the doctor was done, Willow noticed that it was already late and got ready to leave.
“Solomon, I’ll get going then. I’ll be back tomorrow, though.”
“It’s all right. You can just stay here for the night.”
Solomon did not go along with her suggestion like he usually did.
Instead, he fetched his coat from the coat hanger and draped it over himself. Then, he took his prescriptions and car keys from the coffee table.
Willow was stumped. “Huh? Are you asking me to stay here while you… Are you heading out?”
Solomon nodded. “Yes, I’m coming back tomorrow.”
His words did not leave any room for Willow to protest. Willow could even feel the murderous aura coming off of him.
Where is he going?
She stared blankly at him.
In the end, she still could not summon the courage to ask where he was going, much less tell him that Sasha was coming tomorrow.
Meanwhile, at Turlen.
Devin had not been able to leave the hospital for the past few days. His aunt and uncle who were supposed to reach the hospital in the morning did not show up on time as they claimed that their flight was delayed.
“Devin, could you stay there longer to take care of your cousin? We’re already at the airport, but the staff in charge told us that the flight had been delayed. So there’s really nothing we can do.”
“That’s right, Devin. She’s your cousin, after all. Could you just stay for one more night? Hmm?”
Devin’s aunt and uncle did not call again after hanging up.
Hence, there was nothing he could do except stay at the hospital.
Thankfully, Kira did not throw a tantrum as she did in the morning.
“Devin, it’s so painful…”
She merely gave him the puppy dog eyes after she woke up.
Devin was speechless.
Ever since knowing that Kira harbored inappropriate intentions toward him, he started loathing the woman with every fiber of his being. Even the puppy dog eyes she was giving him were nauseating at best.
However, he suppressed his feelings.
“Just bear with it. Your leg is going to be fine.”
“Really?”
The woman was in so much pain that all colors drained from her face. Her eyes beamed with a glimmer of hope after listening to what Devin said.
She was like a child who had gotten her hands on the sweetest candy.
“Devin, I’d like to eat ice cream. Could you help me buy it?” She decided not to push her luck and make things difficult for Devin.
“Did I hear ice cream? Mr. Jadeson, your cousin could really use some ice cream right now to soothe her pain. Believe me, she’s experiencing quite a bit of it right now.”
A nurse walked into the ward suddenly and overheard Kira’s request. It was apparent that she thought it was a good idea.
Kira’s craving grew after listening to the nurse. “Devin…”
She pouted her lips in such a pitiful manner that even the nurse did not have the heart to turn her down.
In the end, Devin headed out of the ward. He went out of the hospital and drove along the road to hunt for ice cream in his SUV.
When Solomon arrived at the hospital, Devin was already back with the ice cream.
Solomon stopped his car outside and lifted his head to look at the third floor where the VIP ward was. Solomon noticed that a man was feeding the woman lying on the bed.
I really don’t get it. What is Sabrina hoping for when this fella’s so hopelessly blind?
Solomon got out of the car and slammed his car door shut.
After a few minutes, in the ninth VIP ward on the third floor, Devin who was feeding medicine to Kira heard a loud bang. He turned his head around to trace the sound.
An angry-looking young man had kicked down the door.
“Solomon?”
Devin was stumped when he recognized the man.
Kira, who was enjoying Devin’s care, was taken aback by the commotion as well. Her face froze at the sight of Solomon.
However, Solomon left no time for them to think as he dashed for Kira’s bed as soon as he kicked down the door.
“Do you think you can manipulate everyone with those tricks up your sleeve? Do you want to take Shanae’s legs as well? Huh?”
