Chapter: 1656
�You guys can go in and see him. Dr. Wagner said the patient will wake up soon,� the doctor said to Renee.
�Great!� Renee immediately entered Quinton�s ward with Leia behind her. Justin was left standing outside with a solemn expression.
�Justin, aren�t you coming?� Leia turned and asked him.
�No, I don�t think I should.� His head was low, and his tone was miserable.
�You� Alright then, just wait out here.� Leia knew that he was hurt by Renee�s accusation, but she couldn�t say much under such circumstances. She could only try to persuade Renee after Quinton woke up, or else, Renee would doubt Leia too.
It was now eight o�clock at night, and Renee hovered by Quinton�s bedside nervously.
Quinton had been in a coma for nearly half a month. At that moment, his fingers moved slightly and he opened his eyes.
�He�s awake! It�s a miracle! Ren, look-Quinton�s awake!� At first, Leia had doubted that scumbag Stefan and Dr. Wagner, but now, Quinton had actually woken up
�Renee...� Quinton moved his fingers as a tear rolled down his cheek. "I've let you down. You must have suffered a lot worrying about me.�
"Don't say that. I should take care of you since you're my brother. I'm... I'm just glad you're awake!� Renee sobbed as she laid beside him.
"I know that I was in a coma. It felt like my soul was locked away in some small part of my body, and I wanted to stay there forever, but I couldn't forget about you. So, I tried my best to escape, and I'm so grateful I did,� Quinton said softly, his voice raw with emotion. He seemed gentler somehow, as if he had lost his sharp edges and ferocity.
"Ah, don't say such things. You'll live long, and you'll see Adie and Abby grow up and get married and have kids of their own. You've just been asleep for a long time, you weren't dying!" Renee wiped away her tears and smiled at Quinton tenderly.
"Alright, I won't give up so easily, for your sake and the kids. I have to live a long life, and we can stay together forever.�
�Alright, let's pinky promise. I won't forgive you again if you hurt yourself!�
They hooked their fingers together and cried piteously, creating a touching scene.
Leia remained silent, but tears rolled down her cheeks. She recalled Liam, her brother. She heard from Renee that Liam had gone to Southeast Aeos to be the son-in-law of a fort master, but she had no idea how he was doing.
Suddenly, Renee's hand brushed against something cold under Quinton's pillow. She pulled it out in confusion, and was stunned when she saw what it was. It was a luxurious silver ring with an "S" engraved on the inside. It could only be Stefan�s.
"Renee, what's wrong?� Quinton was lying in bed, so he hadn't seen the ring, but he was wondering why Renee had suddenly gone quiet.
"It's nothing,� Renee said absently and held the ring firmly in her hand. "Quinton, you should rest since you just woke up. We can remove the gauze on your face when you're discharged, and by then, you'll be reborn.�
"Hey, what's with that? I'm just glad I survived this." Quinton smiled bitterly, just grateful he was alive at this point. JrNovels.com
