Both Cordy and Sean stayed in Patrick's ward to keep him company.They both waited in silence for him to wake up.Then, after a long while, Patrick's eyelids seemed to twitch.Sean quickly noticed and straightened himself as he stared fixedly at the other man.Cordy sensed his reaction in turn and noticed that Patrick was showing signs of waking up as well.She quickly got up, leaned toward him, and whispered into his ear, "Are you awake, Patrick?"Patrick simply felt light-headed and opened his eyes with great difficulty to find his vision blurred.It took a while for him to focus and find Cordy.He tried to move but found himself very limp. Moreover, he barely moved when he winced in pain. "Oof.""Don't move!" Sean suddenly snapped, his voice stern.Patrick turned toward him.Cordy did the same and could not help telling him, "He just woke up, Sean, and he's hurt. Don't shout at him."Sean pursed his lips, but stayed silent.Patrick seemed to remember what happened jus

Cordy smiled faintly. "Really?""Well, he is impressive, so if he actually died…" Patrick continued and suddenly noticed the look of indifference on Cordy's face, adding, "It'd be a shame""You should be worried about yourself." Cordy smiled, though her tone was stern. "You're worried about others when you broke three ribs? The most important thing for you to do right now is to get better.""And once I'm better, will you marry me?" Patrick blurted.He was actually surprised himself when he said that—he had always wanted to marry Cordy, but never had the courage since he knew all too well that he was not all that important to her yet.At least not important enough to entrust the rest of her life with… Like a burglar, he had all the intention but not the courage.Even he had no idea how he managed to say that.In fact, he was panicking before Cordy responded. "I-I was just kidding. I'm not asking to offer yourself to me just because I saved your cousin—""Yes," Cordy suddenly sai

Sean left John's ICU ward for the day and headed to Patrick's room, where Cordy was feeding him apples.He had a blissful, goofy smile on his face as he stared at Cordy, and Sean in turn smiled slightly, seemingly in blessing.As he entered, both of them turned toward him, with Cordy asking casually, "Is Dicky heading home?"She was naturally aware why Richard was frequently coming to the hospital."Yeah, I told him to head back to Cranston Hall—there's a limit to visiting hours, and he'd be idling staying here anyway," Sean said, before adding, "He'd be third-wheeling if he came here too."Cordy blushed a little, though Patrick was beaming. "He's too polite, honestly… We're family now. He would never be imposing."Sean was speechless. "Yes, you're family. So can I borrow Cordy for a moment?"Patrick was obviously reluctant, but Cordy already put the apple in his hand and said, "Eat it yourself."What…" Patrick was clearly upset, but he could only watch as Cordy walked toward S

Eventually, Patrick growled unhappily, "I'm done."Sean slowly turned and picked up the bedpan Patrick had peed in as if it was natural, emptied it, and cleaned it up before returning it to the ward.After that, he returned to the washroom and washed his hands.It seemed like a deliberate gesture to Patrick, as if to convey his disdain.And when Sean was done, he simply sat on the couch nearby.Both men did not say a word, leaving the ward in deathly silence.Patrick suddenly found it uncomfortable. He decided to restrain himself and ask, "How's John?"Sean looked up at him, surprise showing in his eyes as he appeared caught off guard that Patrick would ask about John."Do I look that cold to you?" Patrick demanded right then."Nope." Sean smiled faintly. "Well, he's still comatose, and he suffered worse burns than when he was caught in that hotel fire. There's so much bandage around his face now he looks like a mummy."What the hell kind of a description was that?!Sean the

Patrick huffed. "Why would I argue with him?"His tone was hostile, but he was keeping his voice down anyway, perhaps worried about waking Sean up.Cordy smiled, but she refrained from exposing the man.Patrick had his ego, and she did not want to make things awkward for him. She brought a blanket for Sean and gently laid it over him—Sean was always a light sleeper, and even if she was careful, he would have woken up on any other day.But this time, he was still sleeping soundly.Had he been busy? Probably.After all, there was a lot to do in the Cranston family right now, and there were occasionally family members who would add to his troubles. Sean, who had to shoulder everything by himself, was definitely under considerable stress.After tucking in Sean, Cordy returned to Patrick and asked, "Aren't you going to sleep?""No way. I've been sleeping all day every day for days, and I can't sleep at all now," Patrick grumbled. "Did the doctors mention when I could get out of
