Chapter 854

In the hospital room, a lady wearing a matching gown sat next to the bed.

Noticing his awakening, Lindsey asked, both gentle and surprised, “You’re up? How’s the pain?”

Sumner, emerging from days of unconsciousness, replied with a raspy voice, “How about you? Are you okay? Are you unharmed? Did you suffer any injuries?”

After a brief silence, Lindsey couldn’t shake the sadness and bitterness.

When Sumner woke up, his first concern was for her.

Mixed emotions swirled within her-gratitude mingled with guilt.

She reassured him, saying, “I’m okay.

Focus on your recovery and don’t fret about me.

Are you feeling hungry or thirsty? I’ll get a doctor to examine you in a moment.

Just hang tight.

Lindsey swiftly stood to fetch the doctor, but Sumner’s gentle grip halted her.

His hold was feeble, so she sat back down, not wanting to resist.
