Returning With A Thousand Favors novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261

“Why did I suddenly feel a bit sleepy? I wanted to go to sleep, Marina murmured as she closed her eyes.

Noticing her timid expression, Simon could not help but smile even more widely.

However, he refrained from disturbing her and tidied up her blanket. Leaning down, he gently kissed her forehead.

“Rest well. I’ll be outside. If you need anything, remember to call me,” Simon reassured her.

*Go away. I want to sleep. Don’t disturb me,” Marina dismissed him with closed eyes.

Chuckling lightly, Simon teased, “You, heartless little girl,” before leaving the room.

As soon as the door closed. Marina, who had been pretending to be asleep, could not resist opening her eyes.

However, it seemed she opened her eyes a little too late. She only caught a glimpse of a small part of Simon’s attire as he exited the room.

When his figure completely vanished from the doorway, Marina withdrew her gaze and shifted her attention to the ceiling.

She pondered to herself, “Once my injury heals… I should have fully recovered in about another half month. By then, it will be close to my grandfather’s birthday. I recall Simon mentioning that he would propose to me formally during the birthday banquet. Hopefully, everything will be fine by then…”

Marina unconsciously bit her lower lip and suddenly recalled the night in Solemwood.

That night, she had been drugged, and her consciousness was hazy.

However, she still retained some vague memories of what had happened.

She remembered the sensation of Simon’s strong and powerful arms, his slender waist, and his deep breaths when he was emotionally moved. “Hmm… I shouldn’t dwell on it. I shouldn’t!” she scolded herself internally.

Marina pulled the blanket over her head, feeling that if she continued down that train of thought, she would start feeling like

a per vert.

In the subsequent days, Marina continued to recuperate under Simon’s care. It was like living in a fairy tale, where everything was catered to her needs.

Furthermore, she had a special human pillow to cuddle with each night, making her reluctant to leave his warm, comforting embrace.

Three days later, Yenny noticed something amiss. Despite changing the bandages regularly, there seemed to be no improvement in his condition.

It was not due to the pain he felt but the lack thereof. He felt no pain at all, which raised Yenny’s concerns. As a result, he summoned his private doctor to examine his hand.

“My hand used to ache a bit after applying the medicine, but these past two days, I haven’t felt any pain at all. What’s even more concerning is that my flexibility has significantly decreased compared to before,” Yenny shared with a sense of worry, glancing at the doctor in front of him.

“Mr. Pembroke, please don’t worry. Since your hand is in a cast, your mobility will be limited. Let me examine it first.” The personal doctor carefully removed the cast from Yenny’s hand, cleaned the ointment off, and conducted a brief assessment.

To the doctor’s astonishment, he discovered that Yenny’s hand had experienced a notable reduction in sensitivity, causing tlie doctor’s eyebrows to furrow instantly.

Yenny keenly noticed the change in the doctor’s demeanor and asked, “Is this condition normal?”
