When Zayden heard those words, he turned his head around slowly. However, his gaze was blank, and
his eyeballs were not moving.
Gwendolyn nodded at the housekeeper. “Bring me his dinner. I will feed him.”
Zayden sat on the bed quietly. His face had become much thinner, and his chin was sharper than
before.
As a tall man with long limbs, he seemed especially thin in the hospital gown.
She walked over to his bedside. “Zayden, I've come to see you again. You have to take some food.”
While speaking, she propped the overbed table up. Then, the housekeeper brought the dinner and laid
the food on the table.
She began to feed him while holding the bowl. “Open your mouth.”
Zayden pursed his lips. “Gwen, I... I can do it myself.”
However, Gwendolyn refused, “Let me serve you this time. Once your eyes have recovered, I won't
feed you even if you pay me to do so.”
Her tone was light, and it sounded like she was joking.
In actual fact, she was filled with sorrow. He is such a dashing and outstanding man. How could he
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbecome blind? Life is unfair. He is such a kind-hearted man and is polite to everyone. Back then, he
even offered his help to a stranger like me. A kind-hearted man like him should not have ended up in
such a pitiful state.
Zayden swallowed a few times. He then said with a hoarse voice, “Gwen, I've already become like this.
Can you let me retain the last shred of dignity? I don't want you to see me in such a state. Please
leave.”
He finally said the words. His politeness in the day was all gone now.
However, Gwendolyn was unfazed and insisted, “Zayden, I'm not leaving. Open your mouth.”
Now is the time for me to repay him. How can I desert him when he is in such bad shape? I can never
do that.
Zayden frowned. “Gwen.”
He extended his hands and held her hands very tightly.
“Are you pitying me?” he said in a low voice. His voice had lost the vibrancy from the past and sounded
somewhat gloomy.
Gwendolyn took a look at his hands and pulled her hands back. “Nope, I'm just concerned about you. I
hope that you will get well soon.”
She held the food to his mouth. “Open your mouth.”
Zayden could not refuse her any longer. He obediently opened his mouth and finally ate.
Angeline was delighted as she looked on at the side. If she had known that Gwendolyn could deal with
him, she would have brought her over long ago.
It had only been half a month, yet Angeline felt that she had aged.
After Zayden had finished a considerable amount of food, Gwendolyn said, “You should eat more.”
“I'm full,” he said flatly.
Then, he added, “I want to drink some soup, though.”
Gwendolyn smiled. The housekeeper brought some soup over. It was mushroom soup.
She fed him an entire bowl of soup, and he did not act up during that time.
After that, the housekeeper cleared the dishes and left. Gwendolyn used a wet towel to clean his face
and hands.
After he was all cleaned up, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Have a good rest. I'll visit you when I'm free.”
Zayden held her hand. “Can you come daily?” he asked hopefully.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGwendolyn could tell that he needed someone to keep him company badly.
As Angeline was his mother, he did not want to appear weak to her. Hence, he had been acting tough.
Gwendolyn gave in and said, “Okay, I'll come every day.”
Zayden still held her hand tightly and refused to let go. He was acting like a child.
Angeline was watching at the side. She would have lashed out long ago if that had happened in the
past. However, her son needed Gwendolyn to take care of him at the moment. Thus, she had to calm
herself down.
Even though he was blind now, she felt that Gwendolyn was still not worthy of Zayden. She would
never agree to let them be together.
Gwendolyn accompanied him for a while longer and talked about the details of the incident. She found
out that he had hurt his head the other day and become blind afterward.
The cause of the illness was yet to be found. The result of the brain's CT scan showed that everything
was normal. However, he still could not see, and the doctors were still trying to find the cause.
When Gwendolyn returned to Patrick's ward, he was already awake. One of his hands was attached to
an IV drip, and the other hand was holding a fork. He was having his meal.
