Chapter 135
I reached out in the darkness to turn on the light, glancing towards the direction of the door. It was closed shut.
It wasn't Jane,
Jane had stayed with me at the hospital tonight, afraid that it might affect my sleep and delay my recovery. She insisted on sleeping on the sofa in the living room, but also worried that if I felt uncomfortable and called out for her, she wouldn't hear me, so the door remained half open.
Now, obviously, someone had come in.
Was it him...?
I didn't know.
But it didn't matter anymore.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
The next day, after a good night's sleep, I felt much better.
The nurse brought a breakfast for two, along with fruits and bird's nest, a lavish spread.
Jane clicked her tongue. "Your hospital is quite generous."
The nurse smiled, "To help patients recover faster. However, the nutritional plan for Mrs. Frost was personally tailored by the hospital director."
After saying this, she checked my temperature and other vitals, "Mrs. Frost, you still have a slight fever. Please have your breakfast first, I'll go call Prof. Foust over."
After she left, Jane gave me a puzzled look. "Are you really heading for a divorce?"
"What do you think?" I replied.
"Can we still eat this breakfast then?" She gestured towards the sumptuous meal, looking tempted.
I chuckled helplessly. "Divorce doesn't mean wasting food. Go ahead and eat!"
I was already accustomed to Ryan's way of doing things. Always alternating between
discipline and sweet rewards. But now, I wasn't falling for it anymore.
Just as I finished my breakfast, Albert arrived with a few servants, carrying various
nutritional supplements, quickly filling up half the living room.
Albert's weathered face showed a hint of regret as he comforted me. "Mrs. Frost, about the child... I heard about it. Don't be too sad. Both you and Ryan are still young. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future to have children. Please have these nutritional supplements first. There are plenty more in the old mansion. After you're discharged, you can focus on recovering."
"Albert." He had always been by Grandpa's side, so I respected him. "Ryan and I will definitely divorce this time, and there won't be any more children in the future. Please take these things back."
Albert didn't try to persuade further, waving his hand, "These are from Mr. William for you, not from Ryan. Please rest assured. Before Mr. William passed away, he often said that the Frost family owed you. These... you must accept them, or Mr. William won't be able to rest in peace."
"Alright."
After hesitating for a moment, I accepted them. Thinking of Grandfather made tears well up in my eyes. I wiped my eyes and said, "The two jade pendants that Grandfather gave to the child, I've kept them in the safe in my room and never brought them out. When you have time, please take them out and return them to Ryan."
The passwords for each safe in the old mansion were initially set by Albert. Later, when I married into the family, Albert reminded me to change them. But our time living in the old mansion was too short, so I never got around to it. Now, it seemed like a moot point.
Seeing my firm attitude, Albert reluctantly agreed. Then, hesitating as if wanting to say something, he spoke, "Um... there's something I've been keeping an eye on, the medicine that Mr. William asked you to look into. There's been some progress. However, it seems as complicated as you suspected. Now that you're divorcing Ryan, I'm afraid it might drag you into things again..."
"Is there any progress?"
