Chapter 1048Chapter 1048
Lulu closed her eyes in exhaustion, and Irene tucked her in. "Rest well."
However, Irene refused to abandon Lulu here and would make Lulu better no matter how hard it was.
She stayed for a long while in Lulu's ward, many thoughts crossing her mind.
Lulu would never get over Martin if she stayed here, and she might be able to leave her dark past if she
started over in a new place and started anew.
She spoke to the officers, who agreed to her request considering Lulu's condition-the only condition
was to get Lulu's consent.
Irene insisted that she would, and one of them said, "If you can convince Lulu to accept treatment and
live well, you can ask us for anything you need."
In fact, they would have done everything they could for Lulu given what happened to her.
Irene did not need anything, however. "Just arrange for a vehicle for when I take her away."
"Leave that to us. Don't worry."
Since the officers were not arguing, Irene just had to work Lulu patiently.
She knew that words were meaningless, and Lulu needed time.
She just had to stay at Lulu's side and wait until Lulu understood.
However, Lulu did not speak much over the next few days even though Irene had another bed brought
into the ward and basically lived with her. Irene was worried about Lulu and that she would dosomething drastic, and staying with her all the time might offer comfort.
Seeing that Irene had not been sleeping well because of that, Eagle asked," Ma'am, why don't you go
home and rest while I stay here?"
Irene shook her head-she would only be at ease if it was her watching Lulu.
She also called Isaac, who understood her and assured her that he would take care of the family, and
she did not have to worry.
Without any concerns over there, Irene would be at ease staying here.
Eagle lowered his eyes nonetheless. "You have dark circles under your eyes, ma'am."
Irene did not seem to care. "I just lost sleep. I'm fine."
While she had been staying at the hospital constantly, she had been sending her bodyguards on
errands all the time.
And to top it all off, Eagle slept on the bench outside while she had a bed.
Still, he saw to his tasks dutifully every day, just like he bought lunch at noon, including extra helpings.
"Why would you buy so much? We won't be able to finish it," Irene told him.
Eagle merely stared at her skinny cheeks, but he kept his eyes lowered in silence.
Lulu's doctor came to check her in the afternoon, saying, "You should get your facial surgery done
soon."
Her injuries were serious in the first place, and she had even less chance to recover her looks if she
kept waiting.The doctor told Irene to convince Lulu before he left too.
However, though Irene was anxious as well, she had no choice if Lulu did not give in.
As she returned to the ward and closed the door, Lulu called out to her," Irene."
She had never spoken first ever since Irene came, and Irene hurried to her side. "Come with me,
alright?’
Lulu did not respond but asked, "Who did you bring here?"
Irene replied, "A bodyguard Isaac arranged for me. He's great—he's been with me for a while."
"Oh," Lulu replied and said nothing else.
As such, Irene asked, "Why'd you ask?'
"I just thought he cares a lot about you," Lulu replied.
Irene thought about it but decided that Eagle had always been good to her, given his employer and him
being a mercenary.
She stared at Lulu. "Let's not talk about him-let's talk about you instead. I'm staying here with you
forever, unless you agree to come with me."
