Just as Maeve was about to touch Byron, Maeve suddenly realized it might be a mistake since she could transfer bacteria from her hand to his injured eye. She quickly pulled her hand back.

Byron's expression grew colder, more menacing. He raised his hand and pushed her away, saying icily, "Get out."

"No." Maeve held his wrist. "What happened to your eyes? Did you catch the mutant variant of Xasia because of me?"

"I don't know what you're talking about." Byron frowned impatiently. "Whatever happens to my eyes has nothing to do with you. Don't meddle."

"Then tell me, did you come to the hospital to see me a few days ago?"

Byron tilted his head slightly, facing her voice. A mocking smile played on his lips. "You're imagining things. I can barely take care of myself, so why would I come to see you?" Maeve's eyes flashed with determination. "You're lying. I saw you that night."

"Save the nonsense for yourself tonight. It's probably comforting." Byron's tone was detached. "If you're done talking, get out. Stop disturbing my rest."

Byron's cold words pierced Maeve, twisting her heart with pain.

Maeve couldn't tell if that night was real or just a dream from Byron's unreadable expression.

Maeve wanted to ask more, but worried it would truly disturb Byron's rest. Swallowing the ache in her throat, Maeve managed to say hoarsely, "Alright, I won't bother you. Rest well."

As Byron heard Maeve's wheelchair roll away, the mocking smile faded from Byron's face. His lips pressed into a hard line. 'It's better she stayed away,' Byron thought, 'sparing her the guilt that would only make things worse. She still hasn't recovered if she's in a wheelchair. Why isn't Jaylen keeping an eye on her?'

After leaving Byron's room, Maeve told Alexis about Byron's eye injury. Alexis immediately went to find Byron's doctor, but soon the bodyguard stepped out and said respectfully to Alexis, Madam, Mr. McDaniel invites you in."
