chapter 374
Hoping that Winnie would see him the instant she opened her eyes, Xavier stood right across from her.
Hoping that Winnie would see him the instant she opened her eyes, Xavier stood right across from her.

Behind him were Rufus and Beatrice, who had rushed over upon hearing about Winnie’s surgery. That aside, there was Greta, who held a bouquet of flowers in her hands, and the other medical staff.

At that very moment, everyone present was on pins and needles. That went doubly for Xavier. In fact, he was even more nervous than Winnie.

From the second Josiah announced that it was time to remove the gauze, his eyes had been glued to Winnie’s face.

When the gauze was taken away, he held his breath.

Josiah was in no better state. Even his hands were trembling as he removed the gauze.

It was an exceedingly simple matter, but it took several seconds longer than usual due to his overly ginger movements. That made the hearts of everyone in the room lodge in their throats.

As he took off the gauze, he even started growing incoherent. “Okay, you can remove your eyes now. No, I mean, you can open your eyes now.”

Hearing the man’s blunder, Winnie couldn’t help chuckling softly.

The fact that she could still laugh at that time was synonymous with good news to everyone.

They all reckoned that she must be able to see. Otherwise, it made no sense for her to be able to laugh.

Winnie opened her eyes under the anticipation of the crowd.

With a faint smile on her face, she stared right ahead.

The person right across from her was none other than Xavier.

Right then, Xavier stared at her motionlessly, his eyes shining with hope.
