The stars were blinking in the sky, while the night deepened.
It was quiet or even dreary in the corridor. Whenever a nurse passed by with a medicine trolley, the clear sound of wheels could be heard clearly.
There was a row of chairs near the wall, and Lilith was sitting on one of them. Not long ago, she had her dinner alone inside the car.
Dylan took a look at his watch and said, "Mom, you have stayed here all night. I think you'd better go back home and have a rest. Come back here tomorrow!"
Lilith caressed her forehead and nodded. "Okay!"
It was indeed more than she could bear. After all, she was no longer a young woman, and her physical strength wasn't good enough now. Moreover, Tina was still here. Lilith disliked Tina, but she could only endure it. It was really uncomfortable for her to keep on staying here.
Lilith was helped away by the servants of the Koo family.
After that, Dylan walked towards Tina, who was leaning against the glass wall of the ICU room. He sighed and said, "Tina, I don't know when Dad will wake up. I'll drive you home, okay?"
Tina pursed her lips, and looked at Aspry, who was still lying there.
She shook her head. "I'd better stay!"
Aspry had always been kind to her.
If Aspry hadn't taken Tina to the Koo family after her mother's death, she would probably have become an orphan.
Although Lilith had once hurt her, Tina still had received much warmth from the Koo family. She was very grateful to her adoptive father, Aspry.
When Aspry woke up temporarily from his coma, he mentioned that he wanted to see Tina. Tina was deeply touched by Aspry's wish. She really wanted to let him see her when he woke up again.
Dylan understood what Tina was thinking about. He said, "I have just asked the nurse and she told me that there was an empty ward nearby. Tina, you can sleep over there tonight. I'll call you as soon as Dad wakes up!"
Tina pondered for a moment.
She didn't want to refuse Dylan's kindness. She nodded. "Okay!"
Tina didn't rest well last night. Yesterday, she told Wilson that she didn't want to be his secret mistress anymore. Although she had already made up her mind and was firm and adamant while talking to Wilson, she still had gone through drastic emotional shock. After going back home, she almost stayed up all night.
If she continued to wait for Aspry to wake up outside of the ICU room, she might become utterly exhausted.
It was very late at night, Tina and the nurse went to the empty ward to have a rest.
The bed was by no means soft and comfortable. Due to her lack of sleep last night, Tina fell asleep immediately after lying down.
She had a great many dreams all night long.
The dreams were indeed fragmentary. She dreamed of Aspry, who was at that time still young and energetic. He personally drove the car and took Tina to the school. The person who appeared most frequently in her dreams was none other than Wilson.
As there was no curtain in the ward, and the morning sunlight came in through the window.
Tina was still sleeping soundly when someone pushed her and woke her up.
A tall and straight figure was bending over near the bed. He was gently pushing her shoulder. Tina was covered by this man's shadow.
She slowly opened her eyes.
She was still not sober-minded enough, and was a little confused. She mistook the man near the bed for Wilson.
Tina thought that as usual, she was woken up by Wilson, who had enjoyed sleeping with her for a very long time last night. She unconsciously grabbed his big hand.
Dylan's movements became stiffened.
When he realized it and wanted to grasp her hand tighter, Tina had already pulled her hand back.
She sat up directly and explained awkwardly, "I'm sorry. I was still in a daze!"

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
