The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 920

It was the theme song from that classic Japanese drama, Long Vacation. The melody was sweet and passionate, and in my brightened mood, I couldn't help but hum along.

The culprits had been caught, and the entire nest of rats hiding in the shadows had been wiped out. From now on, the people I cared about would never be hurt again, and I finally didn't have to live in constant fear of losing them.

With that heavy burden lifted, I could finally sleep peacefully.

But as I kept humming, my mood slowly dipped.

I missed Ferris. On this holiday meant for family reunions, I wanted to be with him, just like Officer Sutton and Officer West earlier.

But he was still unconscious. He couldn't eat a reunion dinner with me, couldn't watch the New Year's fireworks by my side, and couldn't cuddle with me to whisper sweet nothings.

I quickly comforted myself. It would get better. Everything would slowly get better.

Wiping out that nest of rats was already a huge step forward. Even though Ferris was still asleep, his surgery had been a success, and his vitals were stable. I knew he would recover soon.

He wouldn't make me wait too long.

Lewis quickly drove me to the hospital. He parked at the entrance and opened my door, but after taking two steps, I realized he hadn't followed me.

"Lewis, aren't you coming up with me?" I stopped and looked back at him in confusion.

Lewis looked crestfallen. "Mr. Sterling might not want to see me, I..."

"It's not that he doesn't want to see you; he physically can't see you right now. He's still unconscious. But if you want to check on him, come up with me," I joked lightly.
