Chapter 548
Taya was on IV drips for a few more days in the hospital, and with Griffon by her side, taking
meticulous care of her.
On the day she was discharged from the hospital, Griffon couldn’t hold on anymore and had almost
collapsed to the ground while she was in the bathroom washing herself up.
At the sight of the scene, the terrified bodyguards standing at the door rushed in to hold him up. “Sir,
are you alright?”
Griffon pushed the bodyguard away to lean against the wall with one hand, stabilizing his figure, as he
ordered in a cold
voice, “Go get the car.””
The bodyguard was a little worried about him, but he was in no place to defy Alpha Knight’ orders, so
he had no choice but
to turn around and walk out of the ward.
Griffon settled onto the sofa, propped his forehead with one
hand, and rubbed his aching temples.
When Taya exited the bathroom, she saw him sitting still with his eyes closed, looking unwell.
With her clothes in hand, she walked towards him and saw
him opening his eyes before she could even ask.

“I have a headache. Could you let me get some rest before I send you back to the villa to pack up?”
Taya nodded and gave him another look before asking, “Do you need the doctor?”
Griffon waved his hand to refuse. “No need…”
After his voice trailed away, he closed his dull hawk-eyes.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Taya turned around and packed up her clothes.
Not long after, the bodyguard showed up. “Sir, the car is
ready.”
Griffon opened his eyes once more and gave the bodyguards another look, motioning for the
bodyguard to come and help
him up.
The bodyguard who had stayed by his side for some time understood it immediately and strode forward
to offer his
assistance.
With the support of his bodyguards, Griffon got up from the
sofa to stabilize his figure before walking toward Taya whose back was facing him.
“Are you ready?”

With a slight nod, Taya reached out to lift the suitcase on the ground.
Yet Griffon responded by taking her hand, saying softly, “Let them do it.”
With that, he led her by the hand, all the way to the elevator, before sending her to the car…
Griffon didn’t get anyone to help Taya pack her stuff, perhaps to selfishly stay with her just a little
longer.
He turned his head to look at the quiet woman beside him, instinctively raising his fingers to tousle her
hair which was fluttering in the wind…
Before his hand could touch her, he paused, allowing Taya’s fine hair to brush across his fingertips
along the wind…
He was eager to hold firmly onto love and the woman, but he
dared not do so, for fear that if he did, the wind would snatch
him of his beloved, just like how it was for him right then.
The glaring sunlight seeped in, shining on his eyes. He let go of his hands and covered his pink-
rimmed eyes.
The car soon arrived at the entrance of the villa. Griffon didn’t open the door for her. Instead, he said,
“I’ll be waiting for you.”
Taya turned her head in response, opened the car door and got out of the car, walking towards the villa.
The bodyguard turned to give the pale-faced Griffon a worried look. “Sir, can you still manage it?”
Griffon nodded lightly. At the very least, he had to hold on

succumbing to his exhausted body….
He would never allow Taya to worry…
As the thought crossed his mind, Griffon let out a self-deprecating laugh.
What was he thinking? Why would she worry about him?
In fact, Taya’s things were all packed. The main thing she had
to do was to take her phone.
While Griffon wasn’t paying attention in the past few days, she charged her phone and contacted Neil.
She had requested Neil to return to US without her, but Neil
insisted that since she would be leaving Griffon, he would wait for her before they leave for US
together.
During the few days in the hospital, Griffon prepared a plane. ticket for her and Neil after he agreed to
let her go.
Taya replied to Neil’s texts, and after they agreed to meet at
the airport, she walked out of the villa with her belongings. and returned to the car.
Griffon reached out to her and requested. “Let me hug you again…”
Taya’s eyelashes lowered with her gaze. After a few seconds of stillness, she shook her head to reject
his pleas.
Seeing so, Griffon slowly withdrew his arms which were freezing mid-air, his fingers curling into a fist
with his fingernails piercing into his palm.
