�Ah, did you say that? You just ordered me to come pick you up." Elijah tried to defend himself when he sensed Stefan's murderous aura.

Stefan closed his eyes, clenching his fists as he bit out, "Have I made myself clear now? I'm going to Renee!"

"Oh, you want to see Miss Everheart. What a surprise! I'm sure you have different feelings for her. Well, you should have told me earlier...

She's staying in the same hospital as you." Elijah tried to emphasize how special Renee was to Stefan, and yelped when Stefan whacked him.

"You're losing your mind. Don't you have enough on your plate? I don't mind giving you more work!" Stefan shot Elijah a cold glare.

"It's alright, I have enough work. I'll take you to her now." Elijah parked the car and opened the door for Stefan before they walked into

the hospital.

Renee had indeed sprained her waist, and was quickly rushed to the orthopedics

department, which happened to be on the same floor where Stefan was warded.

After ages of wandering around, Stefan was right back where he started.

At that moment, a lot of Renee's relatives and friends had gathered in the ward, including Leia and Justin.

All of them rushed there when they heard the news. Hence, Stefan could not get close to Renee.

He wasn't thick- skinned enough to approach her under such circumstances.

When a nurse came out of the ward, Stefan gave Elijah a meaningful look, and Elijah immediately understood. Elijah went up to the nurse and pulled her to a corner.

"Miss, I would like to ask you something.

How is the patient in that ward?" The nurse looked at them cautiously.

"Who are you two? Are you her family? If you're not, I can't tell you anything because our patients information is strictly confidential."

"Yes, we're her family. Mr. Hunt here is the patient's husband," Elijah said confidently.

"Husband?" The nurse scrutinized Stefan in disbelief.

"Why didn't you go in if you were her husband? You're hiding here in the dark like a creep."

�why are you so stubborn? Just answer our question. You..." Stefan massaged his temples and sighed exasperatedly, then pulled Elijah aside before he got into a fight with the nurse.

After that, he said to the nurse seriously, "Yes, I'm her husband but we got into a fight and I was too cowardly to go see her. But I'm very worried about her, so... Can you tell me how she is?"

"Umm... sure." The nurse gave in because of Stefan's handsome face.

"The patient is out of danger now, but her waist is seriously hurt. She needs to rest for two to four weeks, and she'll be fine if she recovers well. If not..." JrNovels.com
