Chapter 231 What He Won’t Say

“Alexander?”

When he didn’t respond, Evelyn frowned slightly. “Answer him.”

“…No.”

He hadn’t been taking it. He had stopped months ago.

Because of Elena’s pregnancy.

Sullivan’s expression tightened. “Mr. Kingsley, the medication prescribed by the hospital needs to be taken consistently. Stopping it on your own like this significantly increases the risk of a relapse.”

He packed up his equipment, then turned to Evelyn. “Mrs. Kingsley…”

Evelyn understood immediately that there was no convincing Alexander right now.

“Write the prescription,” she said calmly. “I’ll have someone pick it up tomorrow. I’ll handle the rest.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

After Sullivan left, the room fell quiet, leaving only Evelyn and Alexander.

Evelyn sat down beside the bed, her expression serious. “How long are you planning to keep this from Elena? Are you really going to keep skipping your medication just to hide it from her? Alexander, your body won’t hold up if this keeps going.”

She knew exactly why he had made that choice.

But this wasn’t sustainable.

“You’re married,” she continued. “She’s going to find out sooner or later. Your condition isn’t life-

threatening. She’ll understand.”

Alexander closed his

. But take the medication this time.”

He didn’t respond. Only after she left did Alexander slowly open his eyes again.

A dull ache throbbed in his head, and a shadow lingered over his features.

He couldn’t be sure that Elena would stay if she knew the truth.

And he was selfish.

He had fought too hard for this chance. He wasn’t ready to lose it.

Chapter 231 What He Won’t Say

When Elena woke up, it was already nine at night. Alexander still hadn’t come into the room.

She hesitated for a moment, then got out of bed and went downstairs.

Walter and Evelyn were no longer in the living room. Only the staff remained, quietly cleaning up.

“Where’s Alexander?” Elena asked.

One of the staff members replied respectfully, “Dr. Hall came by earlier. Mr. Kingsley hasn’t come downstairs since, so he should be resting in the guest room.”

“Elena frowned. “Dr. Hall?”

“Yes, he’s the doctor.”

He’s sick?

Her gaze shifted toward the guest room.

After a brief pause, she headed upstairs.

When she reached the door, she hesitated for two seconds before gently pushing it open.

Alexander was there.

She walked over to the bed and stopped.

It was rare to see him sleeping this deeply. His brows were tightly furrowed, as if something unpleasant was weighing on him even in his dreams.

Is he running a fever?

She reached out and placed her hand against his forehead.

Warm, but normal. Not a fever. Then what was wrong?

She remembered hearing before that his health wasn’t great. Back then, she had misunderstood what that

meant.

If it’s not that… then what is it?

With her free hand, she reached over and switched on the bedside lamp.

Warm light filled the room.
