Nick was already exhausted, yet he still let out a soft laugh. “You’re right, Grandpa. I need to get better soon.”

In the past, whenever the two elders teased him about marriage or a future granddaughter-in-law, Nick would always brush it off. But now that he had Khloe as his wife, he had suddenly grown obedient.

Sure enough, a man only reveals his wife-doting side once he actually has a wife. Grandfather and grandson were exactly alike.

Still, Nick’s voice remained weak. The gentler it sounded, the more it tugged at the heartstrings.

Seeing how close Nick and Khloe were, Arista felt tears well up with relief. She discreetly wiped her eyes and

took Loretta’s hand.

“Let’s go. We’ll let Khloe take care of Nick.”

Loretta nodded, finally letting out a long breath. The two needed each other right now-no amount of concern from elders could compare to the nourishment of love.

“Khloe, we’ll be troubling you.”

“Grandma, please don’t say that. Taking care of Nick doesn’t feel like a burden at all.”

“If you need anything, tell Lenny, or call me or Arista anytime. We’re always here. And don’t exhaust yourself— rest early.”

After a few more reminders, Loretta glanced at Nick. He didn’t speak, only tugged his dry lips into a faint smile.

The private time his grandmother and Arista left them was something he deeply appreciated. He looked at Arista, gratitude clearly visible in his eyes.

Once everyone left, the room fell quiet again.

When Khloe stood up, Nick instinctively reached out and grabbed her hand.

She couldn’t help smiling. “I’m not leaving. I’m just getting you something to eat. You’ll need to take your medicine afterward.”

Reluctantly, Nick loosened his grip. Even with her right in front of him, he still wanted her within arm’s reach.

That familiar anxiety-buried deep inside him-stirred again, dark and unhealthy.

But in the very next instant, Nick crushed it down with sheer will. He was different now. Those bleak past days were long behind him.

Khloe wouldn’t abandon him. And he absolutely could not allow himself to show any ugliness in front of her.

Once the pills were taken, sleep would come quickly. Wanting to stay with her just a little longer, Nick delayed taking his medicine, forcing Khloe to feed him bit by bit.

Whenever she brought a pill to his lips, no matter how unwilling he was, he swallowed it.

There were seven kinds of pills. Khloe fed him several times.

The last two were especially bitter. With no water left, she fed them to him mouth-to-mouth.

Nick quickly developed a taste for it, pulling her into his arms and kissing her for a long while-until Khloe couldn’t take it anymore and bit his lip to force him to stop.

Fortunately, the medication soon took effect. No matter how strong-willed he was, he couldn’t fight the heavy wave of drowsiness.

“Khloe, do you know?” Nick suddenly spoke with his eyes closed, his voice soft, like sleep talk. “When I was unconscious, I had a dream.”

Khloe was wrapped in his arms, resting against his chest, afraid to move. “What kind of dream?”

“It felt like someone was praying by the window, begging the gods. In exchange for me to wake up, she was willing to trade… ten years of her life.”
