“Nana is fine. She messagedthe day before yesterday. Focus on your surgery, and don’t think about anything else. You should deal with Peter and Romello’s matters first. Nana will be okay.”
Elliot continued to grip his arm, questioning, “Did she message you? What did she say?”
Howard was taken aback, but he quickly cup with a lie.
“She said everything is in order over there, asked us not to worry, and… she inquired about your health. Anyway, once your vision is restored, you can personally read the messages she sent. Isn’t that great?”

Sheena had promised to return within two weeks with Clear.
She must be safe!

Howard fell silent, glancing at Elliot lying unconscious on the hospital bed.
He whispered, “Noah, why do I feel like you’re scolding him?”
Noah remained silent, closing the door after finishing his notes.
Howard shook his head in resignation, secretly sympathizing with Elliot, his soon–to–be brother–in-

She was simply breathtakingly beautiful!
He quickly lowered his head, repeatedly trying to wake up his rationality.
