Meanwhile, in another part of the hospital.
Ariana slowly regained consciousness.
In that instant when Ariana opened her eyes, Kiara was indescribably excited. Her eyes were trembling, and she didn't dare blink as she watched Ariana, asking cautiously, "Sister Ariana, are you feeling any better?"
Ariana's gaze wandered blankly around the room at first.
It took a few seconds for her vision to gradually focus. Lambert stood by her side, frowning slightly at Kiara, who had squeezed in beside Ariana before him. His eyes showed a hint of dissatisfaction and gloom.
Fortunately, Ariana's attention first went to Lambert rather than anyone else, which slightly eased Lambert's mood.
Ariana first glanced at Lambert and then turned back to look at the worried Kiara. She managed a faint smile, her voice hoarse yet soothing, "I'm fine, don't worry."
Kiara felt deeply guilty. "How can I not worry? If it weren't for me, Sister Ariana, you wouldn't have been hurt. I'm sorry... It's all my fault."
If she weren't afraid that crying would worry Sister Ariana even more, Kiara would have already broken down.
Even now, she was barely holding it together.
Her eyes were red, and tears welled up, ready to spill over at any moment.
Ariana sighed helplessly.
She reached out and gently ruffled Kiara's hair, her voice soft and resigned, "I don't blame you, but you did make a mistake this time. Next time anything happens, make sure you tell me right away. That way, I won't be caught off guard, understand?"
Ariana's gaze was filled with an indulgent smile and gentleness.
Kiara sniffled, nodded, and said, "I understand. I won't do it again."
At this moment, Lambert, who was being ignored: "..."
Lambert's eyes involuntarily squinted. He glanced at Kiara and suddenly realized that he had underestimated her. Her threat was no less than that of his own sons and daughter. Oh well, once they return home, she won't be hovering around Ariana anyway.
With this thought, Lambert barely managed to suppress his irritation.
Casually, he found a chair and sat down.
After Kiara poured out her feelings and calmed down, she suddenly remembered that her brother-in-law was still in the hospital room. She immediately felt a bit embarrassed and wiped the corners of her eyes, then looked at Sister Ariana and her brother-in-law, and said softly, "Sister Ariana, I'll go buy some food... What would you like to eat?"
Ariana frowned, "It's getting a bit dark outside."
Before Kiara could say anything, Lambert interjected calmly, "There are bodyguards with her."
Kiara silently closed her mouth, swallowing back the words she was about to say.
However, Ariana still felt a bit uneasy.
After all, this was Country M, a place they weren't familiar with, and even with bodyguards, Ariana was still a little worried.
Kiara noticed Ariana's concern, then smiled slightly and winked, "Brother-in-law is right, there are bodyguards with me. They're all very capable, so don't worry, Sister Ariana. Besides, it's not that dark yet. What could possibly happen? So, Sister Ariana, what would you like to eat?"
Lambert was quite satisfied with Kiara's current sense of propriety.
Ahem, it felt quite nice. Just like when they were first dating.
Thinking of this, Ariana's eyes curved into a gentle smile.
Lambert noticed Ariana's eyes shaped like crescent moons and felt a hint of amusement in his own gaze. He looked at her and softly said, "There won't be a next time for this kind of thing. Do you understand how I felt when I heard you were in the hospital?" As he spoke, Lambert let out a slight sigh of relief.
It was only now that his previously tight nerves began to relax momentarily.
Lambert gently ruffled Ariana's long, glossy black hair, his eyes showing a mix of helplessness and tenderness.
This gentleness was reserved solely for Ariana.
Ariana was somewhat taken aback.
In fact, she wanted to downplay the situation, saying it wasn't that exaggerated. It was just dizziness caused by an abrasion and excessive blood loss—not too serious. However, when she saw Lambert's serious expression, she couldn't bring herself to say those words. In the end, she merely whispered a soft "Mm" as a way to reassure him.
Just then, the door to the hospital room suddenly opened.
Lambert's face instantly darkened.
Kiara stood somewhat nervously at the doorway and whispered, "Um... I brought back the food." She, well, she didn't actually want to come back so early. The reason she offered to buy food was to give Sister Ariana and Brother-in-law some time alone. But who would have thought that as soon as she got downstairs, she would run into Brother-in-law's assistant, Assistant Hills, who had already bought the food.
Kiara quietly observed for a while before finally bringing the food upstairs.
Even then, she had dawdled quite a bit on the way up.
