In the blink of an eye, it was the day that Anthea was discharged from the hospital.
She had stayed in the hospital for six days. After completing the discharge formalities, they went to the doctor's office together. There were some doctor's instructions that they had to follow after leaving the hospital.
Last night, a nurse sent Anthea a pair of crutches.
Since her leg was injured, she could not move around freely without the aid of crutches. However, with the company of Adam, there was no need for her to use crutches - he put her in his arms and went straight to the doctor's office.
It was not a big deal for Adam.
After all, he was a very strong man who could carry her all the way up to the mountain!
The doctor in white coat patiently reminded, "When discharged from the hospital, you should try to raise your legs high as often as you can, which can improve the venous blood return in your lower limbs and reduce the swelling. Besides, you can do some functional training, but don't exercise intensely. Remember to come back to the hospital for a check within half a month. As for the food, you should eat more variety food rich in calcium and avoid stimulating food, such as soybeans, peanuts, and taros!"
"Mm." Adam made a mental note in silence.
Anthea, who had been waiting for the doctor to finish, could not wait to ask, "How long will it take to tear down the cast on my leg?"
"At least a month," the doctor told her after considering it for a while.
When Anthea heard this, she said, raising her thin eyebrows, "It's such a long time! Can't we do it earlier?"
Somehow, Adam cupped his hand behind his thin lips, feeling a little embarrassed.
The doctor shook his head and said with certainty, "Little girl, that's impossible!
You're very lucky this time. Fortunately, you're young and healthy. Otherwise, it would normally take more than a month or two months to take it down!"
"Oh, okay!" Anthea nodded helplessly.
As soon as they walked out of the hospital building, she saw Carter running over with a sycophantic smile.
He jumped out of the military truck and pulled down the two suitcases behind him from the truck. He
greeted her from far away, "Ow, Mrs. Chin!"
Anthea's lips twitched with amusement.
Carter rushed toward them like a bolt of lightning. "Captain Chin," He greeted Adam and then smiled at her cheerfully. "Hey, Mrs. Chin, congratulations on leaving the hospital!"
"Thank you!" Anthea smiled back at him.
Fearing that the cold wind would blow on her, Adam opened the door and let her in.
When the door was closed, Carter immediately leaned over and reported happily, intending to take some credit, "Captain Chin, I've done all the things you asked me to do! The two basters will spend the rest of their lives in prison! How could they be so bold to insult Mrs. Chin? I've informed the people in the prison and made sure that they'll live a miserable life there!"
"Good." Adam nodded.
Carter continued excitedly. "Also, look, I've packed up for you two. Every single item of yours has been taken care of, including the military uniform and two pairs of underwear that Mrs. Chin had washed for you before she was hospitalized!"
Adam swept over the suitcases, his thin lips curling up. "Carter, you've done a good job this time.
Thanks."
HUH?
Captain Chin praised him! He praised him!
Carter was so excited that he almost cried.
Throughout the year, Adam reproached and punished him a lot, but had never praised Carter with such a gentle smile!
When Carter's eyes were still brimming with grateful tears, he heard Adam adding lightly, "I'll take your home leave this year."
After all, it would take lots of days for Anthea's bone to recover.
Adam was worried about her and decided to take care of her. Though Gavin had given him his vacation, he had only a month in total. So...

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 😩...
