Chapter 340
Hospital, patient room.
Avery, now in a hospital gown, lay in bed. His handsome features pale, his lips as white as wilting petals, his frailty evoked a sense of sympathy. “Mr. Chambers, why the heck would you do that?”
His secretary, standing by the bedside, was still in shock. “Do you realize how close you came to being trampled by that horse? If it had gotten to you, you could have been killed, and all your hard work, all the struggles you faced in Helgen, would have been for nothing!”
Avery slowly opened his eyes, lifting the corner of his mouth into a weak smile. “Harvey, it seems you really are worried about me. You genuinely care.” Taken aback, tears welled in Harvey’s eyes. “Mr. Chambers.”
He had been with Avery for eight years, first as his stable hand, then as his secretary. His role had changed, but his status hadn’t. He was still Avery’s loyal subordinate.
Avery was a man with deep cunning and a suspicious nature. He kept everyone at arm’s length with a cold, wary demeanor. Throughout the years, save for Ms. Evadne, no one got close to him, and no one managed to break through his defenses.
He didn’t have any close friends. But today Avery showed him an unprecedented act of closeness. Harvey, touched to the point of tears, realized that Avery truly considered him a confidant.
“Mr. Chambers, health is the real wealth. You must take care of yourself!”
“For Evadne, I’m willing to do anything.”
Avery took a deep breath, his usually cold eyes softened at the mention of Evadne. “And I want to prove to Evadne that I can risk my life for her too. Not just Thaddeus, So that when she needs help, she won’t think of Thaddeus first. She’ll think of me.”
His following words were rather intriguing.
Harvey, grasping the underlying meaning, nodded solemnly. “You mean, a man like Thaddeus, who messes with relationships and leads a reckless personal life, isn’t a match for Ms. Evadne? Ms. Evadne is smart. She wouldn’t make the same mistake twice, would she?”
Avery’s gaze darkened, choosing not to answer.
Just then, his phone, resting beside his pillow, vibrated.
He looked at the screen, but before he could reply, the door to his room opened.
“Ave, are you asleep?”
Upon hearing Evadne’s voice, Avery quickly hid his phone under his pillow, his lips curling into a warm smile.
“Evadne, like I said, there’s no need to worry about me. I’m fine.”
Evadne entered the room, seeing Avery’s pale, seemingly fragile appearance, she felt a pang of guilt.
After all, he was like this because he had saved her.
“I also said I’d take responsibility for your injuries.” Evadne’s tone was gentle as she approached him.
A warmth spread through Avery’s chest, his eyes welling up with tears.
“Ms. Evadne, you had a fall too. Are you okay?” Harvey, ever so observant, asked with concern.
“It’s nothing serious. The main concern is Mr. Avery. He has a broken arm, a fractured rib, and five external wounds. He needs to stay in the hospital for a while.” Though Evadne had sustained some scrapes, she didn’t give them a second thought, only calmly instructing Avery.
Avery chuckled lightly, “Evadne, I don’t need to stay in the hospital. I know my body.”
“What is it with you men? Thaddeus also just had major brain surgery and he won’t stay in the hospital! Is there something toxic about hospitals or you guys just can’t afford the bills?”
Evadne’s words tumbled out like a rapid–fire.
