Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim (Angela and Dexter) novel Chapter 266

Angela couldn't shake off her concern for Dexter. After all, he had been injured because of her. How could she not feel anxious about it?

The doctor arrived promptly and conducted a thorough checkup on Dexter. He concluded that Dexter's injury was acting up again, leading to poor blood circulation. He needed to go to the hospital for medication and injections.

Angela went with him. Meanwhile, Zack stayed home to wait for Joanne.

"Mr. Bamford, it's best for you to stay in the hospital. Given your current health condition, it's not advisable..." the doctor advised worriedly.

The nurse had assisted Dexter in changing into a hospital gown. He propped against the bed, visibly uncomfortable due to the lack of support behind him.

Noticing his discomfort, Angela quickly fetched a pillow and offered him a box of tissues to wipe the cold sweat beading on his forehead. Dexter glanced at her intensely and remained silent.

"You should consider staying here for the next few days. There's no rush to return. You can leave the hospital once your wound has fully healed," she suggested.

Angela felt a twinge of guilt. Dexter had returned because she hadn't been at the hospital with him; she had left him alone.

"Why should I stay here? To die alone?" Dexter shot her a frustrating glare.

Angela recognized the truth in his words and felt embarrassed. At that moment, she wished she could hide.

"Don't worry. I'll just stay here to look after you." She paused for a moment, then managed to put on a smile, one that was almost flattering.
