Chapter 264

Her gaze lingered on Christopher for a while before focusing on his face. Then tears rolled out of the corner of her eyes. Her lips parted slightly and moved as if she wanted to say something to Christopher.

However, she couldn’t make a sound.

When Christopher saw this, his eyes immediately reddened, but he still forced out a smile and said, “Don’t worry. You’ve just woken up. If you have anything to say, let’s wait until you get better.”

Winnie shook her head lightly, and tears rolled down her cheeks again. Her fingers beside her body curled slightly as if she wanted to grasp something.

Christopher noticed her movement and immediately held her hand tightly.

As Winnie held Christopher’s hand, a smile finally formed on her face. She almost exhausted all her strength as she uttered a single word, “Chris.”

Christopher swallowed with difficulty, and his Adam’s apple bobbed. “Your son is here.”

Winnie was very lethargic. She woke up for a while and then fell asleep again, holding Christopher’s hand.

The air conditioner in the ward was a little cold. Christopher placed Winnie’s hand under the blanket and sat silently by the bed for a moment. Then, without saying anything, he stood the ward.

Yuliana looked at the back of his figure but didn’t go after him. After more than ten minutes, she saw that Christopher still hadn’t come back, and she went out to look for him.

She couldn’t find him on the floor where Winnie’s ward was located.

She went downstairs and went around looking for him. Finally, at a dimly lit corner that was not illuminated by the street lamps, she spotted a familiar figure.

She didn’t go over immediately. Instead, she stood in the distance and observed him for a while, watching the flickering sparks of his cigarette. Then she walked over.

Seeing Yuliana, Christopher paused just as he was taking a long drag of the cigarette. Then, taking a puff of the cigarette, he suddenly went forward, pulled Yuliana over, pushed her against the wall, and kissed her roughly.
