To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 788

Sunlight poured into the hospital room. Alec opened his eyes and was greeted with the sight of the white ceiling above his head. Briefly dazed, he furrowed his brows in pain when a rush of painful memories flooded in. That was perhaps the reason his heart rate increased, causing the machine at the headboard to beep incessantly.

A nurse immediately rushed in to check on him. Call the doctor," she told another nurse. She checked Alec's vitals while the other went to get the doctor.

When the doctor arrived, Alec was finally feeling like himself. He could recall all the memories from his past, but that overwhelmed him a little. Once the doctor was done with the check-up, he called out to Alec, "Mr. Faust?"

Although there didn't seem to be any issues with Alec's physical health, the doctor noticed that Alec's mental state seemed off. "Could something else be wrong with him?" the doctor wondered.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Alec answered, voice hoarse. He hadn't taken any solids or liquids after the surgery.

Since Alec could speak and articulate, the doctor believed he was doing fine. "Transfer him to an ordinary ward and tell the family to bring him food. But remind them not to overfeed him." The doctor gave out orders and was ready to leave.

"Where's Dr. Walter?" Alec asked, stopping the doctor in his tracks.

Jenny was the first person that Alec wanted to meet after waking up, but he dreaded the meeting too.

"It's her day off today. She's not at the hospital," the doctor replied and left the room.

Soon, Alec was transferred to an ordinary ward. Paul, who received the news, visited him with some soup.

"Have some soup." Paul helped him to sit on the bed and fed him. Alec was unresponsive and rigidly took the soup when fed to him. His response was rather worrying. A few spoonsful later, Paul paused and said, "The doctor said not to feed you too much. I'll stop at a few spoons."
