"Have you eaten yet?" Elliot asked.
The bodyguard shook his head. "I've been looking after her!" "Then you should get something to eat," Elliot said. "I'll take over." "Oh, sure! Have you eaten? Would you like me to get you some too?" "I have. Bring some for her." "Okay," the bodyguard said and strode out of the ward.
Elliot sat down in the chair beside the hospital bed.

She was still alive, and he felt a lot more relieved after confirming that.

There were some fruits on the cabinet as well as her bag.
For some reason, his heart tensed up suddenly when he saw her bag, almost as if he was seeing an old friend that he had not seen in a long time.

He saw his handwriting when he unfolded it, and then he realized that his accounts and passwords were all written down.

As he was in a trance, the phone Avery placed on the pillow rang.
He immediately stuffed the note back into the compartment ?a"=X]P< put it back in the cabinet.

Her beautiful eyes were stained with surprise when she saw him sitting beside the bed.
"Why are you here?" She just woke up from the anesthesia, so there was a brief moment where she was unable to tell the time and place.
"Your bodyguard went to eat." He pointed to her cell phone. "Your cell phone is ringing." She came back to her senses, picked up the phone, and took the video.
A delicate girl's voice came, "Mommy! How did you get sick again? Are you in pain?" When Layla heard about her mother's illness, the distress she felt for Avery overwhelmed her anger at Avery's refusal to go home.
"I'll be okay after some surgery." Avery smiled and changed the subject. "Will you be going back to school soon? Did you have a good time this summer? Have you finished your summer homework?"
