�Miss Ren, did you fall out with Mr. Everheart? You just got reunited with him for only a few days.�

�It�s because what I want to do may make him very unhappy, or we may fall out with each other again if I�m not being careful. What�s more, it may push me into an abyss, so��

Renee heaved a long sigh with a worried expression.

Margaret knew Renee�s character very well, so she neither raised any more questions nor tried to dissuade Renee from that. On the contrary, she said firmly, �Miss Ren, you always have a sense of propriety. You never make us worry, no matter what you decide. So, forge boldly ahead if you think this is the right thing. I�ll always support you.�

�Thank you, Margaret. You�re always my strongest support.�

Renee�s eyes became watery as she looked at Margaret.

Sometimes, what she wanted was not great help but her family�s understanding. It would make her realize that she was not going alone on the bumpy and dangerous vast road ahead.

Margaret�s encouragement gave Renee courage. That night, she secretly supported her not-fully-recovered body and walked out of the ward while the doctors and nurses retired to rest.

She was about to go to a near place. It would only take a few steps. She was going to Stefan�s ward on the same floor as her ward.

She should have gone to see Stefan early during the three days that she was recuperating there. However, she did not have the courage to visit him or let others learn that she did.

Hence, she held on until she could get out of bed on her own. She then secretly went to see him when the others were asleep.

She had heard from the nurse that Stefan�s ward was at the end of the corridor. At that moment, the door of the ward was slightly ajar�

Renee gradually became nervous. She held her breath and slowly walked to Stefan�s ward. She then gently opened the door.

The luxurious ward was spacious and clean. A light relaxing fragrance lingered in the air.

Stefan was lying flat on the hospital bed with his eyes tightly closed. His long and thick eyelashes lit up under the light of the orange lamp on the bedside cabinet. They even cast mottled shadows on his weface.

He had suffered a severe fall. His head was wrapped in a thick bandage, and his left arm and right leg were in casts. He appeared like a mannequin that was torn apart and reassembled. He looked in an extremely sorry state. Renee became speechless.

At the same time, her eyes instantly became watery. Stinging tears blocked her vision.

Stefan turned out that way because of her. His old injuries were still not cured, but now he gained new injuries. His injuries were just like deep shackles, and they oppressed her so much that she could not catch her breath.

�You silly man! You�re a smart and rational person. Why did you sacrifice so much for me? I owe you so much now. I�m afraid I can�t even repay you even if I pay with my life.�

Stefan fell into a sound sleep, so he did not notice that Renee was right beside him. He might be in a bad dream, given that he furrowed his brows slightly. His handsome and cold face appeared to be in pain. JrNovels.com
