Chapter 438


    The nurses greeted Josiah friendlily. “Mr. Bayer, you’re here again!”


    Josiah smiled at them and headed straight to the hospital ward.


    The nurses had heart-shaped eyes as they gathered around to chat with grins.


    “Mr. Bayer is so handsome! Not bad at allpared to those hunks!”


    “Right? He’s not just good-looking, but he’s also devoted. He’s here every day while Ms. Kelly’s


    hospitalized… Sigh, it’s a pity that she doesn’t recognize him.”


    “Ms. Kelly’s a poor thing too. She got into an ident, and her father doesn’t even care… Lucky Mr.


    Bayer’s keeping herpany every day.”


    Josiah pushed the door open and saw Kelly spacing out in bed. He forced a smile and walked over


    to her.


    “Are you feeling better today?” He wanted to pat her head, but she avoided him instinctively and


    stared at him as she hid to the side.


    Josiah was sad. It had been so long, and she was still unfamiliar with him. He forced a smile and


    kept his hand to pour her a ss of water and tell her a joke sitting next to the bed.


    “Kelly, you know, there was someone who was sleeping, and a mosquito came to bite him. He was


    woken up by it and was going to p the mosquito when it said, ‘Please don’t kill me. It’s my


    birthday today!’


    “That person carefully ced the mosquito in his palm after listening to it and sang a birthday song


    pping his hands! Hahaha…”


    Josiah burst outughing first after he spoke while Kelly looked at him expressionlessly.


    Josiah’s smile froze.


    “Uh… it’s not funny, is it?” He scratched his head. “My jokes are alwaysme.”


    Yet, Kelly chuckled because of what he said.

    Her smile was as pretty as it was under the starry sky that night.


    Josiah was startled and felt his heart clench. He was suddenly overwhelmed with sadness.


    If time could be rewound, he would have surely taken her away the first night they met. Or he would


    have paid more attention and not let the two assassins Matthew had sent get into the sea party…


    The yacht would not have strayed from the cruise, and he would be able to receive her cry for help


    earlier.


    Josiah’s head hung as his eyes were rimmed red.


    It was then he felt a soft hand on the back of his hand. Astonished, he looked up to meet the girl’s


    clear eyes.


    “Kelly…”


    Kelly smiled at him and swiftly pulled back.


    There was a soft cough at the door.


    Josiah came back to himself and saw Rowane in with his medical kit.


    “Mr. Irwin.”


    “Mr. Josiah.” Rowan smiled politely. “You’re here to visit Ms. Kelly again?”


    Josiah was a little embarrassed. He checked the time and saw that it was when Rowan would treat


    Kelly. He exchanged some pleasantries with the older man and left.


    Before he got out, he reluctantly turned back for another nce and hurried downstairs.


    Rowan was thoughtful as he retrieved the medicine and adjusted the dosage as usual.


    “Take the meds first,” he said. “We’ll do the injection if there’s no allergy reaction half an hourter.”


    Kelly obediently took the medication.
