Yardley's forehead creased when he heard that. He looked over at his unconscious wife, and for a moment, he was at a loss.The doctor imparted a series of things Yardley had to keep in mind, and he diligently committed each to memory.He heard a series of coughs coming from behind him after seeing the doctor off.Yardley turned around and noticed Celia's eyes gradually fluttering open. Swiftly, he got her some water, walked over, and helped her up."How're you feeling?" he inquired, his worry evident.Yardley extended two fingers and waved them in front of Celia. "How many fingers am I holding up?""Two," she responded cooperatively. Then, she realized something was wrong. "I might be a little slow, but I'm not dumb!"He chuckled affectionately and reached out to stroke her hair. "How'd you sleep?""How long was I asleep for?" she asked, scratching her head. Celia then remembered the last few moments before she fainted. "Hold on. Did I faint?"All she could remember was ever

Yardley had taken care of Celia's tasks, allowing her a break from the hustle and bustle. He ensured that it wouldn't overwhelm her when she eventually returned to work.Feeling the recent stress, Celia swiftly devoured an entire roasted duck in just ten minutes.Yardley was delighted to see her relishing the meal. He grabbed a tissue, wiped the grease from her mouth, and said, "No need to rush! There's no competition here!"Fatigue hit Celia hard after finishing her meal.The morning argument with Yardley had deprived her of sleep."Take a nap," Yardley comforted, gently stroking Celia's back. Recognizing her current state, he knew she needed some extra rest."Okay." Celia stretched lazily and lay down with Yardley's help. He kept a watchful eye as she drifted into sleep.Soon, Celia found herself in a dream.Her child's distant calls echoed, but he kept slipping away no matter how hard she tried.Desperation gripped her as she ran toward him, but her child eventually tumbled

The next day, Celia woke up in the afternoon. She rubbed her eyes and found Yardley sitting right next to her on the bed.When Yardley saw Celia was up, he immediately handed her a glass of water.Celia took a sip, and soon after that, a nurse entered with a bowl of oatmeal. Surprisingly, Celia didn't whine about the hospital food this time. She just dug in without a fuss.Yardley raised an eyebrow."Why the sudden change of heart today?" he asked while running his fingers through her hair.Celia stayed silent. She kept quiet about knowing the truth because she didn't want Yardley to shoulder the blame."Nothing. I just had a random craving for it," Celia replied.Yardley nodded. "Oh, by the way, the police swung by and said to hit up the police station once you were up.""So soon?" Celia exclaimed.Originally, Yardley had no plans to tell Celia about it. But he decided to be honest with her out of the fear she might grill him with questions."Yep." He nodded and passed the

"I'm okay," Celia whispered, her strength waning.Collapsing into Yardley's arms, she found solace in his unique scent."It's alright now. You're safe," Yardley reassured her. His usual frosty demeanor exuded warmth.Celia gradually succumbed to unconsciousness.Yardley brought her back to the hospital while the police escorted Troy to the police station.Troy had underestimated Yardley and was surprised by his swift moves.Yardley had hidden his true abilities for years, but for Celia's sake, he finally revealed a side of himself that no one had seen before right before the police.It seemed that Troy had truly pushed him to the brink.Troy was brought to the interrogation room, accompanied by the apprehension of all the remaining members of the hideout.While the situation had been resolved, the authorities proceeded to pass judgment on Troy.With his gun revealed to be fake, the police chose to temporarily suspend further pursuit of charges related to it.However, the dis

"You're the troublemaker!" Celia sat up straight. Who would've thought that the Eldorian medicine she had just poured was now sitting right before her? "Oh no, look who's back again …" she brooded.Celia reluctantly pinched her nose and chugged the glass of Eldorian medicine in front of Yardley."From now on, I'll wait until you've finished your medicine before I leave for work," he said solemnly, and she immediately felt helpless."I've finished the medicine now, and I want to sleep. Go ahead and go about your day." Celia lay in bed, her eyes staring at the ceiling, her mind racing.Yardley glanced in her direction, still worried. Then, he got up and started to walk toward her.Celia drew the blanket up over her head, hiding herself beneath it. He caressed her head over the covers and planted an affectionate kiss on her forehead.Celia remained hidden beneath the covers and listened quietly as the doors closed softly. Then, she stuck her head out and looked at the few pieces o
