He gestured for Rosalynn to continue.
"There was a little bleeding."
Wayne's gaze suddenly trembled for a moment.
"I checked it yesterday and it's fine now!" Rosalynn quickly said.
"Is there anything else?" Wayne asked, looking concerned.
Rosalynn pursed her lips and pointed to her injured knee, "There's a bit of a fracture, too."
"Did you touch it when you got out of bed just now? Did it hurt?" Wayne asked.
Rosalynn nodded, then said complainingly, "Why are you interrogating me like I’m a criminal?"
Wayne didn't reply, but rang the bell to call the doctor and nurse back. They brought painkillers with them.
After Rosalynn took them, the pain eased in no time.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault this happened to you," Rosalynn looked at Wayne sincerely and said, "Hilaria checked, and this was aimed at me."
"Nonsense." Wayne insisted, holding her hand tightly, his eyes closed, looking tired again. "You're my wife, it's my duty to protect you."
"I'm not," Rosalynn whispered back.
"Soon you will be," Wayne said softly.
Rosalynn didn’t say anything.
She got closer to Wayne and whispered, "If you're tired, go to sleep."
"Alright," Wayne agreed, then suddenly opened his eyes, "What about your daughter? Will she be upset if she doesn't see you?"
"No," Rosalynn shook her head.
Wayne didn’t know yet, the daughter he mentioned was actually his own child.
But to be able to think about her feelings as soon as he woke up... Maybe, he really was who he claimed to be.
Even if this child wasn't related to him by blood.
He could still treat her as his own.
"That's good," Wayne said tiredly, "In a few days... I'll buy her a gift..."
