True Love Waits

Evelyn had only been in D City for half a month, yet she had ended up like this. Terilynn blamed herself. Perhaps she shouldn't have recommended that Evelyn go to D City. If she had gone somewhere else, such things would not have happened.

Evelyn hugged Debbie and said, "Mom, I know. I'm tired and want to rest for a while. You should go home now."

Debbie sighed and turned to her younger kids. "Matthew, you go to school. Terilynn, go home. I'll stay here and take care of Piggy."

Matthew left the ward with Terilynn. Debbie helped Evelyn into bed and watched her fall asleep before she went to see the attending physician.

The moment Debbie left the room, Evelyn opened her eyes.

She lifted her hand from under the bed cover and stared at the string of numbers on her palm, blankly.

'Should I call him?' she wondered.

For a moment, she really wanted to.

But she quickly changed her mind. She walked to the bathroom and turned on the faucet. After a short pause and hesitation, she squeezed some liquid soap and finally washed off the numbers.

At that very moment, Carlos was in the Huo family's villa, giving his men orders to either kill or break Sheffield's leg.

By the time Evelyn came back home from the hospital, Tayson had already had his wounds treated and the living room was back to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

After making sure that Evelyn was comfortable in her room, Debbie went to Tayson's room. He was lying in his bed with a pale face.

When he heard the knock, he jumped up from the bed and opened the door. "Mrs. Huo?"

Debbie nodded. "Come to the study. I want to ask you something."

"Yes, Mrs. Huo."
