Divorce Me Before Death Takes Me, CEO

Chapter 196

I floated through a vivid dream. I stood in a hospital room that reeked of antiseptic, facing a younger Blake Parker. White bandages covered his eyes after the accident that left him temporarily blind.

Though sightless, he somehow found my hand and took it in his. He smiled, expression serious despite the bandages.

“When my eyes recover, I want you to be the first person I see.”

I couldn’t speak because of my throat injury. I bit my lip, feeling my face flush hot as my heart pounded.

When I didn’t respond, Blake’s forehead creased with worry. His grip tightened.

“Will you? Will you stay by my side until I can see again?” His voice faltered. “Or don’t you want me to see you?”

I squeezed his hand and shook my head frantically at his last question.

He was the most handsome man I’d ever seen.

From the moment I pulled him from that beach, I was drawn to him.

I held his rough, warm hand, my cheeks burning as I imagined him finally seeing me.

The door opened and a young woman carrying a thermal container walked in, smiling. “Oops, am I interrupting?”
