Chapter 388


    Summer sat quietly at the bedside, waiting for Dean toe out of hisa.


    She sat there for over five hours, but Dean was still sleeping. There was no telling when he would wake


    u P-


    It was at this moment that the attending doctor was doing his ward round. Summer asked with


    concern." Doctor, why hasn''t the patient woken up yet?"


    "The cerebral hemorrhage has not pressed against the nerves of the brain. So don’t worry, the patient


    will probably wake up in a day or two." The attending doctor said to Summer and asked the nurse


    behind him to take notes while observing the patient''s condition.


    She felt a great sense of relief upon hearing what the doctor said.


    Her cell phone vibrated. She went out of the ward before picking it up. "Hello?"

    "Has he regained consciousness?" Mark''s deep voice came through the phone.


    "Not yet."


    "Thene back first. Charlotte is awake," he said in a gentle voice.


    Summer briefly talked to the two nurses who took care of Dean in the room before she left.


    As soon as she stepped back into the ward, she heard Charlotte say, "Mark, is Mommy back yet?"


    She walked to the bedside, looked at Charlotte, and asked softly, "Where does it hurt?"


    Charlotte''s face still looked pale, and she shook her head. "It doesn’t hurt anymore, Mommy."


    "Are you sure it doesn''t hurt?"


    "Head... Headache... Mommy..." Charlotte pointed at her head. She felt her head sluggish, painful, and


    ufortable.


    How Summer wished she could transfer all the pain that Charlotte suffered to herself, and let her bear


    the pain.


    Summer''s eyes welled up. She quickly raised her hand and hurriedly wiped away the tears that were


    about to flow out of her eyes.


    Charlotte had noticed that. She reached out her tender hand to touch Summer’s face, as if she was


    wiping her tears. "Mommy, I lied to you. It just hurt a little, as tiny as a melon seed."


    After taking a deep breath, Summer''s disturbed emotions gradually calmed down. She put Charlotte''s


    hands under the quilt. "Go to sleep. You won’t have any headaches when you get up tomorrow


    morning."


    Charlotte obediently nodded, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.


    "I will stay here tonight. You may go back to the apartment. There is no need for both of us here."


    Summer turned around. She had calmed down.


    Mark pulled back his eyes from her as she turned around. He nced at her once more before his


    body sank into the couch. He had no intention of leaving.


    "I will stay,” he said in a deep voice after a while.


    Summer said nothing, but just quietly sat at the bedside. Whether he left or stayed, she had no right to


    dictate his actions.


    Silence fell in the ward. Even the darkness outside the window seemed to have turned darker.


    A long time had passed before Summer finally fell asleep at the bedside.


    Mark put down the file in his hand and came to the bedside. Summer was holding Charlotte''s hand in


    hers.


    He squinted as something struck his heartstrings. His expression was extremely gentle as he stared at


    them i n silence.


    It was not after a few momentster that Mark bent down to carry Summer with both hands, his action


    so gentle as he was afraid of waking her up.
