Chapter 548:

Kristopher remained by her side, silently adjusting a strand of her hair. Resigned to her situation, Carrie averted her gaze to the edge of her blanket, unwilling to meet his eyes as she quietly accepted his attentions.

“I’ll take care of it,” Kristopher replied, taking the bowl from her.

Carrie turned her head slightly, evading the spoon.

“You shouldn’t neglect your health, even if you’re upset with me. You’ll need your strength to argue, so eat up and get well. Then you can do as you please,” Kristopher urged gently, his voice tinged with a trace of humility.
