Like before, a cold voice prompt from the service provider was heard.
Her heart ached all of a sudden but she had to pretend to be calm.
"Elliot might be busy right now, Shea. I’ll call him later." She really could not bear to tell Shea the truth.
Keeping it the secret for an extra day and allowing Shea's health to improve was better than giving her the news immediately.
Wesley glared at her slightly.
He thought she would tell Shea the truth and was surprised when she did not.
"Okay." There was disappointment in Shea's eyes and she asked nervously, "Will he blame me? Will he be angry with me?" "No, Shea. He won't be angry at you. He misses you a lot, actually." Avery held her hand. "Trust me."
Shea immediately felt relieved. "I trust you and Wesley the most. And my brother too."
"Rest more. You'll get a surprise once you’re discharged from the hospital.” Avery wanted to tell the truth only after Shea was discharged from the hospital.
"Okay. I'm feeling a little sleepy, so I’ll head to sleep for now. Please wake me up if he’s here." Shea spoke in a weak voice.
After Shea fell asleep, Wesley and Avery came out of the ward.
"Avery, you won’t be able to hide this from her until she's discharged from the hospital," Wesley whispered. "She'll be in the hospital for at least half a month, and if she doesn't see Elliot after a week, she’ll definitely become suspicious." "Then we'll tell her after a week. She's still too weak now, and it might affect her recovery if she suffers such a huge blow," said Avery, expressing her opinion. "My teachers once told me that recovery is dependent on mood and that her recovery would not be smooth if she is in a bad mood. In this case, the disease will usually take a long time to recover. If the patient is in a good mood and has a positive attitude, their recovery will usually be much faster."
