Chapter 767 Wait Until He’s Better

Zoe waited in the ward all night. When she got tired of sitting, she would get up and walk around, and when she got tired from walking, she would nestle back on the couch and stare out the window, lost in thought.

In the late hours of the night, a drizzle began to fall.

Listening to the sound of rain, she didn't realize when she drifted off to sleep on the couch. When she woke up again, it was already dawn.

As she rubbed her eyes and prepared to get up and loosen her muscles, she realized that she had a garment draped over her.

She instinctively looked toward the hospital bed but didn't see Daniel's figure. At once, she was shocked when she remembered the doctor's words from the previous night. So, she hurriedly rushed out of the room.

The moment she stepped out of the ward, ready to find a doctor, she noticed two familiar figures in the corridor, causing her to come to a gradual halt.

Elijah was facing her and said, "Zoe, you're awake."

At this moment, Zoe stared at the back of the person in the patient's gown and remained stunned for a few seconds before regaining her composure. "Y-Yeah."

Meanwhile, Daniel turned to Elijah and continued, "I'm fine here. You should send her back."

"Okay." Elijah nodded.

Daniel turned around and returned to his ward with an IV stand. Throughout the entire process, he didn't even glance at Zoe.

As the door to the ward closed, Zoe finally snapped back to reality. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but just as she was about to approach, Elijah said, "Zoe, let me send you back."
