Chapter 1293

Zephyr gently held Hendrick and said, “Ms. Riley Summer is willing to save your life, so don’t break her heart in the future, okay?”

Hendrick remained silent for a long time.

Zephyr looked down at Hendrick, and their similar eyes looked into each other.

“It’s not that I want her to save me. I don’t care about it,” Hendrick said casually.

Hearing this, Zephyr said seriously, “If you break her heart, Daddy will never forgive you.”

Hendrick’s eyes were full of surprise. It was the first time that Zephyr had said such cruel words to Hendrick. Although he was only seven years old, he could understand that Riley was very important to Zephyr.

Two days later, Riley transfused her blood to Hendrick in the hospital.

When the blood drawn out of her body flowed into Hendrick’s body, Riley had a sense of satisfaction in her heart. At least she could save her son.

But as more blood was drawn out from Riley’s body, she felt more and more tired and dizzy. When the blood transfusion was finally complet Riley was helped by the nurse to the temporary ward to rest.

Having a infusion, Riley fell asleep directly.

In her sleep, Riley felt as if she was lying on the cold operating table again. After experiencing intense pain, Riley didn’t hear the cry of her baby, and the doctor said to her expressionlessly, “The baby is stillborn.”

Stillborn?

At that time, Riley thought maybe it was God’s will. It was God who wanted her to have nothing to do with Zephyr, so their child died in her body.

In a daze, Riley seemed to see Nicholas again. Nicholas smiled and said to her, “Riley, you must live a happy life.”

Riley thought, “If you’re not here, how can I still be happy?”

The next moment, Nicholas turned around as if he was about to leave her.

“No…” Riley subconsciously reached out her hand, trying to catch Nicholas. She didn’t want him to leave “No, don’t leave me… Don’t…”

Then Riley felt as if she had grabbed Nicholas’s hand and he said in a gentle voice, “Riley, I won’t leave you. No, I will never leave you…”

Would Nicholas never leave her? Riley felt relieved and smiled, saying, “We’ll never separate…

Nicholas…”

In her sleep, Riley called Nicholas’ name in a low voice. However, she didn’t know that at this moment, when Zephyr heard her speak the word “Nicholas,” his expression suddenly seemed to freeze and he felt cold.

Riley just called the name of Nicholas, which meant that the one she didn’t want to leave was Nicholas.

Even in her sleep, she was dreaming of Nicholas.

A feeling of jealousy filled Zephyr’s heart. It was so strong that he could hardly contain it.

Zephyr had always thought that when Riley married Nicholas, she just wanted to repay Nicholas for saving her life or to annoy Zephyr, even though Riley said she did love Nicholas.

But until now, when Riley shouted the name of Nicholas in her sleep, Zephyr suddenly realized that maybe she really didn’t love him anym Maybe she really loved Nicholas, as she said.

Zephyr held Riley’s hand firmly, and her incomplete right hand could never be completed again.

And did Zephyr really lose her? He had lost the woman who he once wanted to protect for the rest of his life!

“Riley, don’t love Nicholas, okay? Don’t love him… I beg you. Don’t love him… Please…” Zephyr sobbed in a hoarse voice.

Zephyr lowered his head and pressed his forehead against Riley’s mutilated right hand. He pleaded with all his strength.

When Riley woke up, it was already dark.

She raised her hand, only to find that the infusion needle had been taken away. When was it now? She suddenly sat up but heard a voice. “You’re awake.”

Riley was startled. Only then did she find a figure standing up from the sofa in front of her bed and walking towards her.

It was Zephyr.

“Why are you here?” Riley asked in a daze, and then she found that she asked a stupid question. This was a temporary ward in the hospital. If Zephyr wanted to stay here, probably no one would drive him away.

Riley lifted the quilt and got out of bed, saying, “I’m going back.”

But as soon as her feet touched the ground, her legs became weak. Riley staggered forward and almost fell.

Zephyr hurried forward and held Riley, saying, “You just transfused so much blood to Hendrick and you fell asleep for another 10 hours. You’re very weak now.”

“Zephyr, let go of me!” Riley said, trying to push him away.

But Zephyr picked Riley up directly and put her back on the bed. “Lie down in bed now. Don’t go anywhere. The doctor will come to check on you later,” he said.

As Zephyr spoke, he pressed the nurse call button by the bedside.

A moment later, the nurse and doctor came over. After the doctor checked on Riley’s temperature and blood pressure, he said, “Everything is fine. But you’d better have something easy to digest, such as por You can have what you want tomorrow. Besides, you’d better stay i hospital for observation tonight and go through the discharge procedures tomorrow.”

But after the doctor and nurse left, Riley wanted to get out of bed again “Are you leaving? The doctor said that you should stay in the hospital for one more night and then get discharged tomorrow,” Zephyr stopped Riley and said.

Riley sighed helplessly and said, “I’m just going to the concession stand in the hospital to see if there is any porridge.”

Zephyr breathed a sigh of relief. He didn’t know why he had become so cautious in front of Riley that even an ordinary act of hers could arouse his uneasiness.

“I’ve asked someone to prepare the porridge. I’ll ask them to bring it here,” Zephyr said.

“No,” Riley refused without hesitation.

Zephyr’s expression froze, and he said, “The porridge is still hot. I also asked the cook to put some nutritional ingredients into it. It’s much better and more healthy than the porridge you buy at the concession stand in the hospital.”

“No, I can go downstairs to buy porridge myself,” Riley said, waving Zephyr’s hand away from her and getting out of bed.

This time, Riley was very careful when getting out of bed. Her legs did not get as weak as last time, and she didn’t fall.

Just as Riley put on her shoes and was about to walk out of the ward, Zephyr suddenly grabbed her and asked, “Are you unwilling to accept anything that is from me? Even if it is just the porridge, you won’t accept it.”
