Chapter 547
Griffon watched her silently for a while before gently releasing her hand and tugging her in. Only then did he get up to leave the ward.
He returned to the villa and headed straight for the kitchen. to cook some porridge. He put his heart into cooking it as if it was his last time doing this for her.
He poured it into a thermos flask and prepared a few of her favorite side dishes before bringing them back to the hospital.
Upon arriving at the ward, he found that the exhausted Taya
had woken up from a nap. At the sight of him entering the
ward with a bunch of bags, she froze.
Griffon set each of the lunch boxes on the side table before
retrieving a small bowl to fill it with porridge.
He sat by the hospital bed and noticed Taya quietly staring at him. “You haven’t eaten for days, you must be hungry, aren’t
you?”
Taya’s eyelashes trembled slightly, but she didn’t respond. Griffon raised her hospital bed, scooped up a small spoonful of porridge, and served it to her mouth.
She didn’t open her mouth and remained to stare at him.
Seeing her in a daze, the corners of Griffon’ lips twitched in helplessness.
“Have some, and only then will your body get better.”
His voice was soft as if saying his final farewell to her.
Taya parted her lips to eat the porridge bit by bit.

Griffon then took out some side dishes and continued feeding
her.
Taya no longer resisted. She would eat whatever he fed…
The two were so calm that they seemed to have time-traveled
back to when they could get along, warm and harmoniously.
Yet, they were the only ones who knew how tormented their
hearts were beneath the calm surface.
Seeing that she was almost done, Griffon placed the bowl
aside, took out the medicine for her eyes and raised it to her
lips.
“Take some medicine.”
Taya glanced at him before slowly opening her mouth. Just
after the pills were inserted into her mouth, he handed over a glass of water.
As took a sip of water and swallowed the medicine, Griffon handed her a piece of tissue to wipe the corners of her lips.
His movements were immersively gentle, a complete difference from his manic self. Perhaps he had everything figured out and his emotions under control.
After receiving IV drips and eating some food, she was a lot more energized but still weak nonetheless, without the energy
to even take a bath.
Griffon saw that she had been looking in the direction of the bathroom. After waiting for the nurse to pull out the needles, he picked her up and carried her into the bathroom.
He placed her on the sink, drew the curtains of the bathtub, and adjusted the temperature of the water before helping her
take off her clothes and carrying her into the bathtub.
He was the one who had bathed her for the past few days.
Having been used to it, she didn’t feel awkward in the
situation, and on the contrary, was naturally accustomed to it.
Griffon’ fingers gently stroked the tooth marks on her
shoulder…
He had assumed that if he left his mark on her, she would
never have the guts to leave.
Yet, never had he once thought about what she should do
after Silas saw it, and how she should face it…
