Koen twitched his lips and said, "I don't know if they are tired, but I am exhausted from all this work."

"Are you tired?" Ozzy looked at Koen and teased, "I remember you always disliked sweets. Why have you been visiting Peyton's tea shop so often? Aren't you worried about getting diabetes or something?"

"Get out of here!" Koen punched Ozzy playfully before hurrying to the next ward to ask Nathaniel what he wanted to do about Abigail. He couldn't hide it from his brothers any longer.

Nathaniel finally let go of Frey's hand and asked Koen to bring Abigail in.

Whether it was an engagement or marriage, he felt he owed the Hill family an explanation.

When Frey heard that Abigail was coming, she left the ward wisely. She had been lying down for days and needed to move around.

Though it was cold outside, there was an activity room on the first floor of the building with indoor potted plants where she could read and listen to music.

Frey took the elevator down to the activity room.

Soon, Abigail walked into the ward and saw Nathaniel lying on the hospital bed. She was startled at first, then noticed the bed on the other side.

There were dark pink home clothes and a bear hair tie on the bedside. They were a girl's belongings. She suddenly understood.

No wonder she had been refused entry to see Nathaniel in the past few days, with excuses about his unstable condition and safety reasons.
