Alfred glanced at his watch and said to Patrick, “I need to head back to the office. Get some good rest.”

“Okay. Thank

you, Alfred. Sorry for all the trouble this time.”

Alfred nodded, then looked at Zoey. “I’ll leave the driver with you. Just tell him when you’re ready to go.”

“Okay.”

Alfred said nothing more. He opened the hospital room door and walked out.

Watching Alfred leave, Zoey walked over to a chair and sat down, her face full of disappointment.

Patrick looked at his sister and sighed.

“What’s going on?”

Zoey looked at Patrick. The next second, tears spilled from her eyes.

Patrick panicked and struggled to sit up, but the moment he moved, pain tore through his wounds.

Besides the emergency heart surgery, his legs had also been fractured in the car accident. He couldn’t move at all.

“Zoey, don’t cry. Tell me. What’s wrong?”

Zoey looked at him with red-rimmed eyes and choked out, “Patrick, do you think Alfred has fallen in love with Nella?”

Patrick froze. A flicker of confusion crossed his eyes.

“Nella is Alfred’s wife. Isn’t it normal for him to love her?”

Zoey was stopped cold by that question, and the unwillingness in her eyes only grew stronger.

“Patrick, how can you be on her side?”

Zoey was furious. When she stared at Patrick, there was even a hint of viciousness that made him pause.

“All this time, the person Alfred cared about most was me. If Nella hadn’t forced her way in, how could she be the lady of the Keywoods now? She only took advantage of the situation while I was out of the country.”

By the end, the surging hatred in Zoey’s eyes startled even Patrick.

He fell silent, watching his sister’s almost obsessive expression without saying a word.

Her words made him sink into thought.

If… if Alfred really wanted to marry Zoey, Nella wouldn’t have ever had a chance.

Why can’t she understand that?

But Patrick didn’t dare say any of this to her face. He was afraid it might trigger her depression and lead to something worse.

“I’m a little tired and want to rest. You should go home too. There’s a nurse here. Don’t worry about me.”

Zoey nodded through blurry tears. “Alright. Get some rest. I’ll head back first.”

Patrick nodded weakly.

When Zoey reached the door, she suddenly stopped, turned back to look at Patrick, and said, “I won’t give up on Alfred. You’ll help me, right?”

Patrick had just closed his eyes to rest. When he heard that, he snapped them open again.

Surprise surged into his dull, exhausted gaze.

“Help you?”

Zoey nodded.

“How am I supposed to help you?”

Zoey pressed her lips together and stared at Patrick’s pale face for a few seconds, then said firmly, “You can definitely help me.”

With that, Zoey pulled open the hospital room door and walked out.

Patrick was left alone on the bed, utterly baffled.

Thinking of the look on Zoey’s face when she left, a trace of unease crossed Patrick’s expression.
