Sylvia opened the lid, the food fragrance spreading in the room.
While munching, she checked messages on the phone.
Suddenly, she saw a Facebook message from Brayden. "Miss Andrews, I have a question."
Sylvia replied, "What do you want to know?"
Then she tossed away her phone and concentrated on eating.
Shortly after, Franklin requested to have a video call with her.
Sylvia looked at Logan and asked, "Do I look all right? Haggard?"
Logan's heart tightened. "Nah. You look great."
"Don't lie to me." Sylvia didn't believe him.
She didn't straighten up herself. After waking up, she even didn't comb her hair.
How could she look great?
"I didn't lie." Logan raised his hand to swear. 'No matter what you look like, Mr. Maskelyne looks at you in the opposite building,' his inner voice added.
Sylvia swiped to answer Franklin's video request.
Instantly, she saw his charming face. For some reason, she thought Franklin had lost some weight, wondering if he hadn't gotten used to the weather abroad.
While her mind was wandering, Franklin said mellowly, "Hello, sweetie."
Sylvia put some food into her mouth. "Had breakfast yet?" she asked.
"Not yet." Franklin shook his head. Sylvia's face became smaller and looked pale, and he felt sorry for her.
He decided to get better soon and help her gain some weight.
After making up his mind, Franklin became delighted, gazing at Sylvia greedily.
"Why didn't you have breakfast? No wonder you've lost some weight." Sylvia glared at him. "Probably your abs will be gone soon."
Franklin chuckled, curling up his lips into a playful smile. "I can lift my shirt to let you check on them."
"No, thanks," Sylvia curled her lips.
Franklin changed the subject. "Remember your words in your office several days ago? Do they still count?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed through Sylvia's eyes. She seldom confessed to Franklin so boldly. Therefore, she denied it, "What did I say?"
"You said you'd stopped detesting me." Seeing her cheeks turn rosy gradually, Franklin chuckled, "Does it mean you like me?"
"You wish!" Sylvia snorted.
Franklin felt sweet. "All right. I'll take it as a yes."
"I don't want to talk to you now. You ruined my appetite." Sylvia ended the call immediately probably because she wanted to avoid talking about it or because she had no guts to face him.
Franklin could tell she panicked, lifting his brow.
He put down the phone and held the telescope again.
Every day, he checked on Sylvia in the ward which was arranged by Logan.
Whenever standing at the window, Franklin could see Sylvia through the telescope.
Just now, he saw Sylvia wake up, so he hurriedly requested a video call with her.
Sylvia had no idea that Franklin was watching her.
