Falling for a Lie: My Stepbrother's Hidden Revenge

Chapter 139

Eleven couldn’t come up with an answer, and Sylvia didn’t say anything else. “Forget it, let’s go and see what’s wrong with him.”

After tidying up her desk quickly, she drove to the hospital.

In the hospital room…

Someone had wrapped themselves up like a Swiss roll, burying their head deep in the blanket.

The nurse sighed when she saw this. “Mr. Fallen, you still have a fever. Wrapping yourself up like that will make it difficult for you to breathe. And… just let me give you the IV drip!”

Despite the persuasion from the medical staff and Eighteen, the “Swiss roll” on the hospital bed stubbornly ignored them.

As soon as Sylvia entered, she saw this strange scene and teased, “Oh, I’m afraid tomorrow’s news will be about the former CEO of the Fallen Company suffocating himself to death using a blanket and by refusing

an IV drip.”

When Eighteen saw her arrival, he respectfully greeted her, “Miss.”

Sylvia nodded slightly in response and approached Edgar’s bed.

Before she could say anything, the “Swiss roll” suddenly reached out a hand and grabbed her wrist. Edgar emerged from the blanket, his eyes misty due to the fever. He lacked his usual domineering and cold demeanor, instead appearing fragile and pitiful.

He stared at Sylvia’s face several times, confirming that he hadn’t mistaken her for someone else.

From now on, he would never mistake her for someone else again.

“Sylvia, you finally came. I woke up and didn’t see you. I missed you…”

Due to the fever, his voice sounded a bit nasal and milky, with a hint of a spoiled tone.

The medical staff and Eleven present: “???”

Was this the same man who, just ten minutes ago, had a fierce and ferocious expression, as if he wanted to devour someone?

His change in demeanor was too fast, wasn’t it?
