His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1834

"Cough, cough, cough…"

The light cough was nothing compared to the violent ones before this. It sounded like an ordinary cough instead. Still, it was enough to stop Fabian and look toward the sound.

"Dad?" Anastasia turned her head toward her father's voice as well.

She was pleasantly surprised to see that her father, who had been sleeping with his eyes tightly closed, was slowly opening his eyes. Although his brows remained slightly furrowed, and he was still coughing, he was still conscious.

"Dad?!" She called out again with uncertainty. Although she wanted him to be conscious again, she feared he would still be under Rhea's control and would treat her indifferently, continuing to listen to her uncle.

Anastasia was hesitant. She was joyful yet nervous, cautious yet excited.

Cameron exhaled and responded softly, "Yes."

Although it was just a word, it gave Anastasia life.

"Daddy!" Anastasia cried out in surprise as she pounced on him, hugging his neck with both arms just as she did when she was a child. She was laughing and crying at the same time. "Dad, you're awake! You're finally awake! That’s great!"

Cameron coughed several more times after being strangled, and his breathing became much heavier.
