Raegan was finally able to relax a little. Her phone rang. It was Matteo. It turned out that it wasn’t really a good time to pay a visit. There was some noise on his end. It sounded like Mitchel’s parents.
“Okay. I understand,” she replied. It wouldn’t be wise for her to visit when Mitchel’s parents were there.
Raegan turned around and headed to the second floor to visit Henley’s ward.
Henley just went through the surgery and was still unconscious. His parents were abroad, so it wasn’t easy for them to get here. The hospital staff were taking care of him.

Since Henley was injured when saving her, Raegan felt responsible for looking after him. She took a few days off work and stayed by Henley’s side, waiting for his parents.
The doctor came in.
“Are you related to him?”
“I’m his friend. His parents are in transit. They’ll arrive tomorrow.
How is he?”
“Luckily, the fall wasn’t so bad. He landed in a soil pit. His life isn’t in danger, but the wooden stick that pierced his leg had some mold. We’ll assess the progress when the family arrives.”
The doctor walked out once he was done.
That uneasy feeling in Raegan’s chest began to grow again. Why did Henley happen to be there at that critical moment and save her? She would only be able to understand once he was awake.
Raegan stayed by Henley’s side the entire night, only taking turns with the nurses a few times.
Before dawn, the nurse took turns with Raegan. Raegan took the opportunity to get home. She recalled that Mitchel enjoyed the porridge she made last time, so she decided to make some and bring it to him. When it was all ready, it was dawn already.

Raegan rushed to the hospital to see Mitchel. She had checked with Matteo in advance. There was no one else there apart from him and the nurse in his ward at this hour.
Matteo proactively opened the door when he saw Raegan approaching.
As WMitchel’s long-time assistant, Matteo had learned to decipher Mitchel’s expressions and actions. Mitchel’s eyes would light up whenever someone came to visit him and then darken when the visitor wasn’t Raegan. Obviously, he had been expecting Raegan’s appearance.
Mitchel had been resting. His eyes were closed but immediately shot open when he heard the door creak. Seeing that it was Raegan, he looked away indifferently.
It seemed he wasn’t interested in seeing her. Raegan’s face turned pale, a mixture of emotions surging within her.
She took a deep breath to calm herself and exhaled slowly, pulling herself together. Then, she slowly walked toward his bed.
Mitchel raised his eyelids and said impatiently, “Who allowed you to come in?” Mitchel’s eyes flashed with annoyance, seemingly conveying his dislike for Raegan’s appearance.
The urge to run away overwhelmed Raegan, but her feet wouldn’t move.
She tightly clenched her hands, still longing to explain.
