The next morning, Avery went to the hospital as soon as she woke up.
Adrian’s condition had improved considerably compared to the previous day.
He smiled immediately after seeing Avery. "How's my sister, Avery?"
Avery sat down beside his hospital bed and fed him the breakfast she brought along. " She woke up for a while last night, but she fell asleep quickly. She's still sleeping now."
"I see. She'll get better, won't she?"
"Most probably, yes." Avery fed him some soup and said, "You should stay in
Bridgedale for now, Adrian. Once Shea is discharged from the hospital, both of you can stay together with Wesley. He'll take care of you two."
"What about you?" Adrian asked.
"I'm going to find Elliot, and when I do, we’ll go back to Aryadelle together. Is that okay?" said Avery explaining her plan.
"Okay. I won't be that bored once Shea's with me." Adrian began to imagine his future.
Avery looked at the smile on his face and smiled too.
Her cell phone rang after she had breakfast, and her buoyant mood disappeared as soon as she saw the name ' Cole' on the screen.
She did not reply to the message he sent her the previous day, and he decided to call her because he could not wait any longer.
She took out her cell phone and walked toward the balcony.
When she picked up the call, Cole asked immediately, "Avery! Why didn't you reply to my message? You're not trying to disappear, are you?!"
