Upon her arrival at the hospital, Angeline was met with disgusted stares from the elderly ladies, as if her presence had been unwelcomed.

Hospitals were often where people said goodbye to their loved ones, so it was a somber place. Angeline’s appearance was not appropriate for the occasion.

Fortunately, she wore a mask to cover her face. Her appearance didn’t cause a commotion. She quickly entered the elevator, worried about the possibility of being criticized for her appearance.

Soon, Angeline reached the top floor, where there was no one around to stare at her. She was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

When she pushed the door to the ward open, the light was switched off in Sebastian’s room. A faint glow emitted by the lamp illuminated the living room, where Evander sat on the couch, paging through a book.

The warm light from the lamp illuminated his profile, highlighting his sharp features and making him look incredibly handsome.

Hearing the sound of the door, he raised his head to glance at Angeline.

He let out a snort and said, “Ms. Sorelle, you’ve grown bolder since you found the kids.”

Angeline’s face paled at his words. She attempted to cover her dreadlocks and explained quickly, “Please don’t say that. I styled my hair like this for an advertisement and was in a rush to get back, so I didn’t have time to take them out.”

She glanced at the ward worriedly. “By the way, how are the kids?”

“Sylas bought dinner and some snacks for them after he finished work. They ate and then fell asleep,” Evander reported formally, then closed the book he was holding.

Angeline exhaled lightly and offered a smile. “I’m glad to hear that. They didn’t trouble you, did they?”

“No, it’s easier to understand what they’re thinking than to understand you,” Evander replied coldly, emphasizing the last few words as if trying to remind Angeline of something.
