The moment Remy heard the shout, his heart pounded. 'Is there something wrong with the couple again?' he wondered.
"What's wrong? Did something happen to them?" Remy asked the bodyguard. Anxiety was apparent in the tone of his voice.
"No. Mr. Morris just wants to see you. They're fine," the bodyguard explained. The obvious look of concern on Remy's face urged the bodyguard to talk faster.
"Ah, I see. Hurry up, then. Why is Mr. Morris looking for me?" Relief washed over Remy the moment he heard that the two of them were fine.
When Remy walked back, he caught a glimpse of Westley sitting by the corridor in front of the house. He sat there. In silence, he basked under the warmth of the sun as if nothing happened.
"If you're fine, can you stop sending people to call me with urgency? I was afraid that something had happened to you," Remy said as he sat next to Westley with a look of disgust on his face.
"What could possibly happen to me? Do you want me to get into trouble?" Westley asked as he took two sips of water.
"Of course I don't! I just don't want to ruin my reputation because of you." Remy glanced at him.
"I asked you to come here because I was feeling lonely when I woke up alone. Keep me company." Westley tilted his head to gaze upon the sky. The white clouds against the blue horizon looked breathtaking. The bright luminescence of the sun made it even better.
"How about Gabrielle?" Remy took the glass Westley passed on to him and took a sip.
"Let her sleep. She hasn't woken up yet. When she was in a coma, she couldn't sleep comfortably. Her face always had a frown. It wasn't until now that she's finally sleeping better. Let her sleep a little longer," Westley said. There was concern in his voice.
He also slept quite well. He had not slept that good in days.
"Are you hungry? I saw the two of you sleeping around a while back so I didn't wake you up for lunch," Remy asked.
"It's fine. Gabrielle and I will be having dinner when she wakes up. You're a doctor. You should be responsible for her nutritious meal. Can you ask someone to have it prepared now?" Westley ordered.
Remy obliged. He had already come up with a meal plan for Gabrielle and Westley. He did not need Westley's reminder.
"I already told the cook what to make. Now that Gabrielle is up, what are you going to do?" He was talking about whether or not the couple were coming back to Antawood.
Now that the both of them had recovered, they could finally come home. Staying here wasn't a good idea.
"We can leave when Gabrielle gets better. We're not in a hurry," Westley calmly replied.
It had only been a day since Gabrielle had woken up. If they left hastily, it might aggravate her wounds. Westley did not want to risk it.
"Yeah, you're right. What are you going to do about Lance and Bryce?" Remy had been filled in about the situation in the forest and about what had happened between Bryce and Nellie.
Westley had kept the two of them in Bangkok. Nellie had to go see a doctor because of the odd feeling in her belly. Bryce took that opportunity to run away. Lance helped him seek refuge at the forest.
Nobody could have possibly anticipated for things to go this messy.
