Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 520

“Eve, promise me you won’t make me worry about you like this anymore.” Christopher planted a kiss on my cheek. His hands were still wrapped tightly around me. It was almost as though he was afraid I would disappear as soon as he let go.

“I will. From now, I’ll be extra careful and take good care of myself.”

At that moment, I swore that no matter what happened, I would protect myself. Never again could I let Christopher cry over my safety.

Next, he helped me sit up on the bed. He fed me very carefully in small bites. Before each mouthful, he would blow on the soup to make sure it had cooled down before putting it into my mouth.

After eating, I was incredibly sleepy due to my heavy injuries. Despite that, I tried my best to stay awake and talk to Christopher. Seeing that, he decided to get in bed with me, and we cuddled while resting.

“Go to sleep. I’ll be here.”

Lying in his warm embrace, I slowly shut my eyes and drifted off to sleep. Outside the window, Darius and Julia were looking in on us. They could not help but feel emotional.

“How nice is this, Darius? I’m so glad she’s all right. Otherwise, Chris would be devastated.”

“I guess I have to prepare for his wedding soon,” Darius replied. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Yes. Make it grand. I want the entire city to be congratulating them.”

I slept all the way until the next morning. Sunlight shone through the windows, but it was not glaring at all. Outside, everything was looking particularly beautiful.

Christopher’s hands never left my body. Even while asleep, his brows were furrowed. It seemed like he was dreaming of something unpleasant. I gently ran my fingers in between his brows and smiled.

Suddenly, a large hand grabbed onto mine and placed my hand on his cheek. His eyes fluttered open. I could tell that he had been awake for some time now. Without saying anything, his gaze fell onto me and carefully scanned every inch of my body. It looked as though he could never get enough.

My lips pressed against his. We did not do anything, just stared at each other quietly.

Sunlight flowed all around us. It was a very peaceful moment.

That afternoon, Christopher went out for a bit. Coincidentally, Sabrina came over. She was bundled up thickly with a baby in her arms. As soon as she stepped in, she looked me over with concerned eyes. After making sure I was all right, she sighed in relief.

“Yvonne, your life must be cursed or something. All you did was go out shopping with Julia, yet you managed to run into a group of armed robbers. My God! How unfortunate can you be? The chances of something like that happening are so low. I’ve never encountered anything like that in all my life.”

I looked over to the baby sleeping soundly in her arms. He was round and plump. It had only been two days, but he already looked so different. It was odd how babies seemed to grow so much each day.

I chuckled and sighed heavily. “Well, I’m at a loss too. Who would have thought? You have no idea how nervous Chris was yesterday. He held onto my hand the entire day. Even when he went to the toilet, he kept shouting my name.”

“It would be weird if he wasn’t nervous. Come take a look at your godson. He hasn’t seen you in two days, and he’s been looking for you everywhere.” As she spoke, she placed the baby in front of me.

I reached out my hand to touch him a few times. His skin was so smooth and soft. “I guess he really likes me. By the way, I thought you were still bedridden yesterday? How did you get the energy to come see me today? I’m surprised your husband didn’t stop you. After all, you’re still very fragile right now.”

“Yesterday?” Sabrina blinked. Suddenly, the baby in her arms started to squirm. She quickly lifted her shirt in a familiar motion to feed him. “Are you still half asleep or something? Do you know what day it is today? It’s been ten days since you were admitted into the hospital. Take a look at the date written on your chart.”

Ten days!

I turned my head to look at the chart by the edge of my bed. When I realized what day it was, I felt a chill run through my body. I only woke up the day before. That would mean that I was unconscious for eight days!

I suddenly realized why Christopher had been so panicked about me.
