Chapter 197: Chapter 197: She Is Not Normal
Daisy opened her eyes, a gentle smile appearing on her pale face as usual, and she asked with a light laugh,
"What could a patient likepossibly have to worry about?"
"Think about it again, maybe there's something else you haven't..."
Standing behind her, Ethan tugged at her wrist slightly.
Zoe Hilker fell silent immediately, and Ethan stepped forward, smoothing the corner of Daisy's blanket and said
gently, "Just sleep for a bit. Zoe and I will be right outside; call us if you need anything."
Daisy buried half her face in the blanket, only her beautiful eyes showing, and she nodded, obediently closing
her eyes.
Ethan glanced at her a few times, then reached out to pull Zoe Hilker out of the room.

Outside the VIP corridor, it was very quiet.
Zoe Hilker sat crouched against the wall, hugging her legs, her face buried in her knees, her flaxen, fluffy long
hair cascading down and covering her slender back.
"Ethan," Zoe said softly, "don’t you think Daisy has been acting a bit strange since she woke up?"
Ethan twirled a cigarette between his fingers but didn’t light it. Hearing her words, his handseyes turned
contemplative, and he fell silent for a moment.
They had all grown up together with Daisy and could immediately notice even the slightest oddity among each
other. At the moment, though Daisy appeared calm and composed, both Ethan and Zoe noticed her subtle
abnormalities.
Zoe couldn’t help but say, "She didn’t mention Edward," she bit her lip, furrowing her brow, "How could she not
mention him?"
From the tDaisy woke up until she drifted back to sleep, it was really only about ten minutes.
But Zoe knew that if it were the ordinary Daisy, she'd definitely be looking for Edward the moment she woke up.
Yet now, she'd just taken a sip of water, turned over, and fallen back asleep, without even mentioning Edward's
nonce.
Even after being reminded multiple times, she still didn’t think of Edward.
"This isn’t normal at all," Zoe said softly, "In the past, the first thing she'd do upon waking would be to go looking
for Edward..."
He was the person she loved most, the nshe would mention with every breath. How could she not bring him
up after experiencing something so terrifying together?
Zoe held her head in her hands, taking a frustrated deep breath, standing up from the floor, "No, | need to get a
doctor to perform a CT scan on her brain; there's probably something they missed checking..."
"Now is not the tto focus on that issue."
Ethan suddenly said.
He finally lit the cigarette that had been between his fingers, took a deep drag, furrowing his brow as he asked in
a raspy voice, "Even if she wants to see him, how can they possibly meet?"
"..." Zoe paused, looked up at Ethan, then lowered her head in sorrow.
"...Once that guy’s out of ICU, we can let him go see her personally," Ethan said.
But everyone knew that whether Edward could leave the ICU was still uncertain.
The dagger had pierced right through his chest and back, nearly draining his blood.
It was thanks to modern medical advancements that he was pulled back from the brink of death after a day's
and night's fight for his life. Now Edward lay unconscious in the ICU.
He might wake up tomorrow, or he might just die.
How could such an Edward meet Daisy now?
