Abigail sensed that Sean genuinely cared about her. His words today were his way of making amends for what he had done to her. Turning to Lawrence, she said, "Never mind about it. Words that have been spoken cannot be taken back."
Her main concern now was Sean. Despite not feeling well, he had come to Capitalis with her. Was it finally time to paradigm him?
Lawrence was guilty in his heart as Scarlett continued serving dishes to Abigail and him. This meal moved him deeply because it was prepared by his son-in-law and daughter.
After finishing the meal, Abigail sat next to Sean, furrowing her brows as she looked at him. Only after he had slept for a full two hours did he wake up.
"How are you feeling?" Abigail immediately asked.
Sean felt much better, sitting up and letting out a breath. "I feel much better. I think I was just tired."
"Let's eat. I'll heat the food for you in the kitchen," Abigail offered.
"Okay." Sean nodded.
While he ate, Abigail kept her gaze fixed on him. "What's wrong? You're making me shy," Sean said, putting his fork and knife down and looking at her with a puzzled expression.
"What's wrong with your body?" she asked. Although she had seen his medical records, she now doubted their authenticity. After all, he was such a strong person that even if something serious had happened, he wouldn't easily let others know.
"I didn't hide anything from you this time," he assured her. She had always been aware of his condition.
Furrowing her brows, she murmured, "Let's go to the hospital tomorrow and get a check-up."
Sean nodded as he was also afraid that something might go wrong and that Abigail would end up with Eric.
"Stay here tonight. There are many empty rooms here, and my mom has already prepared one for you," Abigail said in a gentle tone, looking into his eyes.
Sean responded with an "oh." Unfortunately for him, it wasn't the same room as hers. Early the next morning, Abigail took him to the hospital for a comprehensive examination, and after a busy morning, she finally received the results.
The doctor called her into the office alone and looked at Sean's test results. The doctor's expression turned serious. "Has he suffered a very serious injury before?"
"Yes, and it was so severe that he almost died," Abigail replied honestly.
Abigail took the prescription, and in her heart, she sneered, Living until his fifties or sixties won't be enough! She left the doctor's office and saw Sean talking on the phone at the end of the corridor.
