Chapter 484

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Carly and Marilyn rushed to Zayn when they saw him coming out of the ward. "How is he, Zayn?" they asked anxiously.

"Dad has fallen asleep. The doctor who did a check-up on him mentioned that he is recovering well, so don't worry about him," Zayn answered.

Hearing that, Marilyn sighed as she sat down on a chair next to them. "I know that you are trying to comfort me, but I know his condition well. He spends less time conscious, and he's asleep most of the time. How could his condition be better?"

"Mom, the doctor said that it will take time for him to recover. You should go home and get some rest since you've spent so many days in the hospital," suggested Zayn while squatting in front of Marilyn.

"I'm fine. However, you've been back for a while now, yet you've been in the hospital for so many days. You haven't stepped foot at home, so you need to rest more than I do."

"I'm fine. There's still some work that I need to take care of in the company..."

"Zayn," Carly suddenly uttered. "You should listen to Mom and go home to get some rest. Our family is already in such a situation, and we wouldn't know what to do if you collapse too."

Upon hearing that, Zayn pursed his lips and slowly got up. "Alright, I'll go home and return later in the evening."

As he was about to leave, Marilyn suddenly grabbed his hand. Her expression was solemn compared to earlier on. "Zayn, there's something that I need to tell you about."

Seeing that, Carly's expression turned grave, and she stretched her hand out to tug Marilyn's blouse. "Mom…"

"There's no point hiding it from him at a time like this. Moreover, how are you planning to explain it to him when he sees her with his own eyes once he gets home?" Marilyn explained.

Carly's face instantly turned pale. She stammered as she opened her mouth, but she couldn't say a thing.

"What happened?" Zayn furrowed his brows and asked.
