Raven felt a little awkward under Tess’s stare. She scratched her head and exined, “I don’t even know how he found out about your crash. He got here even faster than we did. And these past couple of days you’ve been in the hospital, he’s been running around nonstop. Even though I said Lyra and I would take turns taking care of you, he’s actually the one who’s been bringing meals, changing dressings, doing everything.”
Raven rubbed her chin.
Tess’s fingers tightened without her realizing it. The fruit in her hand even caved in a little.
She lowered her gaze. “Then, when Abeles back, tell him he doesn’t need to help out here anymore.”
Bang!
The ward door flew open. Abel stormed in, a thermal lunch box in hand, his face tight with panic and anger. He shot Raven a sharp re. “What did you tell her?!”
Raven looked baffled, but since she’d started the topic herself, she swallowed her irritation and rubbed her nose.
She ignored Abel, and he didn’t bother arguing with her. He set the thermos on the bedside and hurried over to Tess.
He stared at her hard. “What did you mean by what you just said?”
Under the weight of his heated gaze, Tess suddenly found it hard to say what she’d meant.
That brief silence clouded Abel’s
eyes.
He grabbed her wrist and slowly lowered his head. “Why don’t you want me toe anymore? You don’t want to see me? You’re trying to cut me off?”
His messy bangs shadowed his eyes. Tess could feel the sadness and loneliness rolling off him, and it only made her more speechless.
Abel refused to let go of her arm, but he didn’t dare look up. He was afraid of seeing even a hint of confirmation in her eyes.
“Say something…”
He was scared.

Tess had pushed him away again and again. He’d lost count of how many times he’d heard her reject him. Every time, it hurt more than thest.
“I meant you don’t have to run around the hospital anymore. Raven and Lyra are taking. turns with me, and I’ve hired a caregiver. Raven was justplimenting you.”
Hearing that, Abel finally lifted his head, surprise still in his eyes.
He shot Raven a nce, and sure enough, she rolled her eyes and snorted with her arms crossed.
Once he realized Tess wasn’t trying to send him away, his eyes lit up. He held onto her and only then noticed she hadn’t pushed him away like she usually did.
The panic vanished, reced by a pounding heart and swelling excitement. He wanted to be The panic vanished, reced by bolder.
“No, a caregiver can’t take care of you better than I can.”
He huffed proudly, then lifted his shiny, eager eyes.
Tess twitched her mouth. “Oh, really? Mr. Shaw?
She teased him in Raven’s sarcastic tone. Seeing him frown, she went on, “If you have time, help me look after Grandma and Grandpa these next few days. I heard your chance toe to Aetheris came from the Shaws working with the Larsons. This is part of your job. Don’t ck off.”
Tess raised an eyebrow. Abel secretly thought it still didn’tpare to staying by her side, but being seen favorably by Benjamin and Olivia wasn’t a bad idea either. Maybe if the two elders took a liking to him…
Abel’s eyes narrowed slightly, a glint of mischief shing across them.
Tess flicked his forehead.
“I asked you to take care of them. Don’t get any ideas.”
Abel shrank his neck. “Got it…”
Then he instantly perked up and moved to unscrew the thermos. “I had the café chef make

He excitedly took out the food and served it in a wide spread.
The smell of hot food finally hit her, making her appetite wake up all at once.

She hadn’t felt hunger like this in a long time. Thest time was in jail.
“Alright. Let me taste this special menu you arranged.”
Tess raised her brow and took the te.
Just as her fingers touched something warm, there was a knock at the door.
Knock, knock.

But when Raven opened the door, her surprise was clear. “Steven? Didn’t you go overseas?!”
“How’s Tess?”
Steven didn’t even answer her question. He leaned in anxiously, his usual calm nowhere <i>to </i>be found.
Raven didn’t even have time to react. She instinctively pointed inside. “She’s okay. She’s resting in there.”
The moment he heard that, Steven visibly rxed. He pushed the door open and walked in carefully, afraid even the smallest movement might disturb her.
