After saying a few words to Karl, Lily returns to the ward where Rex lies flat on the bed with the same
posture as before. Because he cannot move, he can only turn his eyes to one side as much as he can
to see Lily. The black eyeballs are laid on one side, which makes him look a little amusing.
However, Lily doesn’t care. She walks over and strokes the man’s smooth forehead, “It’s okay as long
as you don’t fever again.”
Rex stares at the woman standing beside the bed. When he wakes up, there is no one in the ward. At
that moment, he is panicked before he could gain his consciousness. Only after knowing that Lily and
Karl have rushed into the ward does he feel relieved.
However, because of this accident, he can only lie in bed like this, unable to even give even a hug. This
feeling of powerlessness and fragility makes him feel like he is a cripple.
Lily notices his negative emotions and doesn’t know what to say to comfort him. After this incident, the
relationship between the two seems to be even more precious. She wants to accompany him, but she
also knows that a man who is usually so arrogant will definitely feel uncomfortable in this condition.
Who wants to show his incompetence in front of his beloved woman?
However, Lily does not think so. She knows that the reason why he becomes like this is for the sake of
his child, and, her.
In Rex’s burning gaze, she leans closer to the man’s beautiful thin lips and kisses him lightly on his dry
lips.
There are not too many movements. She just leans gently on him and gives him a light kiss. Their
heartbeats seem to be the same as each other because of this kiss.
Lily doesn’t keep this kiss for too long. She is afraid that it will affect his breathing. His respiratory tract
is damaged, so she has to be careful and pay more attention.
She straightens her waist and stands not too far away from him. She carefully puts her arms by his
side, afraid that she will touch somewhere improperly. “Rex, it’s really good that you’re fine.”
A few days of worry turns into sparkling tears with Rex recovering his consciousness. When her
eyelashes flicker a few times, she blinks a few drops of tears. Rex can’t help but frown as he looks at
her. He wants to reach out to wipe away her tears, but when he uses just a bit of strength, his body
becomes numb. He can only watch helplessly.
“Don’t cry...” Rex endures the pain and spits out these two words. He does his best.
“Alright, I won’t cry.” Lily doesn’t want to affect his emotions so she raises her hand and rubs her
cheeks randomly, squeezing out a smile that isn’t good-looking. “Adair is fine, you can rest assured.
Now that Aunt Fanny and Abby are accompanying him at home and Pehry’s guards are also outside,
you don’t need to worry.”
She conceals information of Ryan, fearing that he will think nonsense and worsen his illness.
Rex stares at her and listens to her words. His eyes are the reflection of her figure. It is clearly so
petite, but it gives him the most resolute strength.
“Adair has only a few wounds on his body. The doctor has already examined them and decides that it
doesn’t matter. He’s just frightened and needs to rest for a few days.” Lily is afraid that he will be
worried, so she tells him this. “Right now, the most important thing is your body. You don’t need to think
about anything else.”
“What did Karl say to you just now?” Rex asks after she finishes her words.
Lily’s heart skips a beat when he asks. Thinking of what Karl has told her just now, she will not tell him
all these anyway. She is deceived by his lying on the hospital bed. In fact, he is still so sharp that he
can see through her with a single glance.
Lily stands up and raises her hand to reach for the medical syringe beside her. Actually, she is just
avoiding the man’s gaze. “He just tells me about the problems I need to pay attention to when you do
recovery exercise.”
“Anything more?” The man’s voice is deep. He isn’t asking but confirms that they must have talked
something else.
Lily knows that she can’t conceal it at all, and she can only play it by ear first. “Brother Karl did say that
it might be difficult for you to recover at later stage, but it only takes at most about a week. It won’t be
too long.”
Rex stares at her unblinkingly. Lily feels weak, but she forces herself to remain calm. Half a minute
later, she is so nervous that she almost can’t hold on. However, this man finally moves his gaze away.
She heaves a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he does not continue to ask more, otherwise, she really does
not know how to conceal it.
After Rex wakes up, Pehry, Orson, and the others come to see him again. At night, he finally can talk
without great difficulty and can also drink some water.
Rex winks at Karl. Karl then takes Lily out. The three men are in the ward together, looking at each
other. Finally, they start their chats.
“I’m already dealing with Vivian. Actually, she doesn’t have any detailed plans behind her. I guess it
was impulse that blinded her. She wanted to see you with all her heart.” Pehry says indifferently, not
saying anything about what he has done these past few days.
Ever since Pehry has taken control of Vivian, he has not handed her over to the police. Although
Vivian’s family is now exerting pressure on the police, it is after all a matter of kidnapping and they will
not gain any benefits. The police negotiate with them, but it is mostly just a formality. If there weren’t be
any compulsory requirements, Vivian will be in Pehry’s hands.
Vivian poisons Rex with such a poisonous addictive drug, which made Pehry almost go mad when he
found it out, so Pehry had someone get the same drug and poisoned Vivian with a double volume in
order to revenge.
As for when to release her, at least it’d be when Rex can walk out of this ward.
“I won’t interfere with anything else. But you should not go so far as to kill her.” Although Rex hates
Vivian to the bone, he doesn’t want Pehry’s life to be stained, “It isn’t worth for such a woman.”
Orson also echoes, “Yes, Pehry. You have to pay attention.”
“Don’t worry, I know.” Pehry waves his hand carelessly. His long and narrow eyes are filled with
darkness. “I will definitely let her live no better than die!”
“Rex, leave all these matters to us, your brothers. You have to take good care of yourself now.” Orson
says as he glances at the ward door. “Lily is a good woman. She has been staying at your bed to look
after you for the past few days. For her sake, you have to be fine,” Orson says.
How can Rex not know all these?
Right now, he is lying in such a sorry state that he can’t move. Someone helps him eat and drink.
However, not only does he not enjoy it, but he feels himself a cripple. Lily takes care of him all the time
and is always afraid that he will not feel emotionally good. He feels heartache for her carefulness to
avoid hurting his heart.
Thinking of all this, the man’s slightly smiled. “I know. I’ll see you all in the Red Club when I’m well.”
Hearing it, Pehry and Orson feel relieved and say, “Alright! Rex, we’ll wait for you!”
Lily is dragged to the office by Karl to talk about something about medicine treatment. Although the
nurse has told her before, he is afraid that she will forget it. He repeats it again and half an hour after,
when she returns to the ward, Pehry and Orson have already left. Only Rex is here.
“They’re gone?” Lily looks around the empty ward and is shocked.
Rex no longer feels his throat as painful as it was when he woke up. He looks at the water beside him
and says, “Feed me.”
Lily immediately walks over to pour out the water and inserts a straw into the cup and places it to his
mouth. Unexpectedly, the man does not drink but suddenly kisses the back of Lily’s hand.
His warm lips scratch her skin. Lily’s entire body seems to have been passed through an electricity. Her
face turns red, and her eyes widen like copper bells. “You, you …”
But Rex is calm as if he hasn’t done anything. His eyebrows are filled with emotions, and his hoarse
voice sounds sexy at this moment. “I can’t reach your lips, so I can only kiss your hand.”
