Tears streamed down Eden's face. She held Jasper's hand very tightly, but her hand was trembling slightly. Her heart ached for him, and she felt uncomfortable all over.
"Jasper." A sob caught in her throat, "Jasper... You have to wake up soon. We're all waiting for you. Jasper, you know what? You're an uncle now. Abby is pregnant. Are you very happy to hear this? I know you must be very glad. Your biggest wish is that Abby can live a good life..."
"Jasper, I'm sorry, really..."
Eden cried and chatted with Jasper for a while. When the time was up, she got up and went out reluctantly.
After she left, Jasper's finger moved slightly, and tears streamed down from the corners of his eyes, but he did not open his eyes.
Victor had been waiting for her at the door. Seeing her coming out with tears on her face, he knew that it would happen.
Holding her hand and sitting on the bench, he didn't say anything and hugged her tightly.
At least she wouldn't be as sad as before after she cried out.
Maybe Maureen was too tired. She didn't come back until six o'clock in the afternoon.
Victor and Eden had been guarding Jasper all the time.
Abigail was in poor health and needed a good rest. Eden asked Anson to take her back to rest first.
"Eden, thank you. I slept for too long." Maureen looked at Eden apologetically. She was very tired after taking a bath, so she slept for a few hours.
By the time she woke up, the sky had darkened.
She didn't have time to think too much, got up to pack up things and rushed to the hospital immediately.
After sleeping with Jasper for one night, she had been living in his house.
Jasper did not ask her to leave, which made her very happy. As long as they could live together, she was confident that she could let Jasper accept her slowly.
Eden smiled and said, "Maureen, you don't have to be so polite. We will come here to take care of him tomorrow morning, and then you can go back to rest. Thank you for looking after him tonight."
Eden said a few polite words.
Although Maureen had told her not to appear in front of Jasper again, she could not care about so much because Jasper was in danger.
Looking at her, Maureen nodded and replied gently, "Okay."
Eden and Victor stayed for a while and then went back together.
......
Half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. These days, Eden was extremely busy.
She went to the company in the morning, and then had to go to the hospital to take care of Jasper at noon.
Victor cooperated with Evans Group and had a hectic schedule. In addition to working in the company, he had to go to the hospital to pick up Eden after work. Occasionally, he needed to engage in social activities. Both of them were busy.
Abigail was pregnant. When she had B scan for the second time, she saw what the baby looked like.
However, she still had to be careful and prevent miscarriage. Eden and Maureen had to take care of Jasper in turns.
Sometimes, when they had no time, Jaida would look after Jasper in the hospital.
Jaida and Jasper had lived in the same neighbourhood for more than seven years, and she treated Jasper as her own son.
Eden turned around and called a doctor to come in. The doctor gave Jasper a detailed check-up. There was no liquid in his chest, and his broken ribs recovered very well. The monitors that were attached to his body could be taken off.
After all the monitors were taken away, even Eden felt more relaxed, let alone Jasper.
After the doctors left, the ward became brighter. Only then did Eden sit on a chair and look at him with a smile.
Her delicate face was full with tears, and she kept smiling at him with her eyes curved. She was as beautiful as she was when Jasper saw her wake up that year.
He wanted to reach out to wipe her tears and slightly moved his fingers, only to find that he had no strength.
He cast a sidelong glance at himself. He was still swathed in bandages.
His chest ached as soon as he moved!
It seemed that he was seriously injured.
Seeing this, Eden immediately said, "Jasper, don't move. If you want anything, just tell me. Are you hungry? The doctor said you can have some liquids. Oh, I'll ask my mom to cook the porridge you like..."
Eden chattered, and Jasper listened to her patiently. When she finally finished her words, he nodded with a smile, "Eden, I'll listen to you." His voice was still hoarse, but he had really woken up.
Eden couldn't help but cry again. Looking at him, she smiled with tears, "Jasper, you have slept for more than half a month. If you didn't wake up, I was going to blame you. Abby is pregnant, and you're an uncle now. Are you happy? Ricky has got a role in a big-budged play, and he can't be happier. He is bolder and bolder now and always bullies Gia..." Eden told him all the good things that had happened recently.
Moreover, she told him that Maureen managed his company for him, and everything was the same as before.
Abigail listened to her quietly. Her voice lingered in his ear, making him be in a particularly good mood. However, when he heard Maureen's name, his eyes dimmed a little.
Eden noticed it. She told Jasper that Maureen had been taking care of him during this period of time, but he was expressionless when he heard that.
