Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

I reluctantly looked at Oliver, whispering, "Mr. Oliver, why don't you go home to avoid agitating her again when she wakes up? Her recovery is the most important."

Oliver stood motionless, gazing at the sleeping Lauren for a long time. Finally, he said to me reluctantly, "Thank you for your effort."

"This is what I should do," I replied lightly. "Give her some time. Perhaps she needs time to heal."
