“If you have no plans tomorrow morning, let’s go pick up Grandma first. She’s being discharged from the hospital tomorrow morning. Matthew said, his gaze falling on Aurelia’s half–closed eyes, which were heavy with sleepiness.

The thought had just surfaced, and then it was gone.

The woman before him had already changed into a comfortable set of loungewear. Her waist–length hair, freshly washed, was fluffy and smooth, cascading down her back. She had removed her light makeup. revealing a fair face that exuded a hint of youthfulness. She looked like a girl who had just turned eighteen, especially in her extremely conservative, soft pink loungewear.

Had it not been for the clothes she was wearing, he would have thought she had deliberately come downstairs again to seduce him.

“All right.”

Aurelia nodded slightly and headed upstairs. She was truly exhausted.

Matthew watched as Aurelia ascended the stairs, then he settled back down on the couch.

His gaze fell upon the blanket on the floor.

Had she just been worried about me catching a chill earlier, and went downstairs to fetch me a blanket?

Matthew’s eyes slowly narrowed, their depths shrouded in

There was milk in the refrigerator, so she heated it up, fried some eggs and ham, and made a sandwich with toast.

While it was being done, Matthew, dressed in casual attire, descended the stairs.

The two were planning to go to the hospital together later, so Aurelia prepared two sets of breakfast. “Would you like some breakfast? We’re having sandwiches and milk.”

Matthew glanced at the dining table. The sandwiches looked quite appealing, indistinguishable from those sold outside. He, who was not accustomed to eating breakfast, nodded in approval when he saw the faint smile on Aurelia’s radiant face. “Sure,” he said.

An hour later, the two of them showed up at the hospital.
