Chapter 441 The VVIP Ward (Part One)


    Daisy stood up after she saw Tom''s silhouette disappeared around the corner. She came close to the


    window and focused her eyes on the man that she loved most. Even though it was hard to see


    Edward''s handsome face clearly from a distance, she still enjoyed being with him like this. Just looking


    at him was a thrill for her.


    Daisy sighed before she turned to Cynthia, "Mom, you and dad can go home and get some rest. I''ll


    stay here and look after Edward."


    "Alright. It''s also time to pick up Justin from school." Cynthia didn''t say no to Daisy''s suggestion. Even


    though she worried about her son, she felt assured with Daisy staying in the hospital. Besides, she was


    also concerned with Jonathan. So Cynthia agreed with Daisy and decided to pick up her grandson after


    two or three hours.


    "OK! Thanks, mom." Daisy felt guilty for not spending a lot of time with Justintely, so she appreciated


    Cynthia''s help for picking him up from school. Justin had been hanging around with his grandparents


    these days, so he didn''t depend on Daisy as much as he used to.


    "Come on, you''re being too polite. We''re family. Don''t thank me next time." Cynthia didn''t like Daisy


    being too polite to her, so she told Daisy to feel at ease when they were together.


    "OK, I won''t do it next time." Family? What a beautiful word. Daisy liked the word so much. Family was


    the warmest and most inspiring word in the world.


    "Alright, we''re headed home now. Ask Tom to ice your face. It looks pretty bad. I wonder who did that to


    you? It''s too much."


    Cynthia shook her head before she linked arms with Jonathan and left. She didn''t know how much her


    words meant to Daisy. She was shocked at the warmth in Cynthia''s words.


    Before Cynthia said that, Daisy thought her mother-inw didn''t know how she had got the bruise. It


    turned out that Cynthia knew it from the beginning. But she didn''t expose Daisy''s lie. She just


    pretended she didn''t know so that Daisy wouldn''t feel embarrassed. After the love and care Daisy had


    felt from Jonathan, this was the second time that Daisy felt love and care from a family member.


    ''Edward, when will you wake up? Do you know that I''ve never been this grateful to you? Thank you for


    bringing me to your family. Thank you for falling in love with me and making me feel like I own the


    whole world with you around. You''re so important to me. How can you not wake up and still keep me


    worried?


    I miss your hugs so much. I miss your kisses. The tender kisses. The passionate French kisses...... I


    miss it when you get angry with me. You must think I''m being silly. No one likes it when someone''s mad


    at them.


    But I miss your angry expressions. I miss your strong emotions. When you''re angry, you''re so real and


    so alive. I don''t like it when you lie on the bed and don''t react to my words, like what you''re doing now.


    You don''t know how afraid and helpless I''m feeling now. You''re just lying in bed quietly and not giving


    me warm hug or smile to encourage me. Is this the way you show your love?


    You''ll never know how I felt when I learned of the fact that you spent five hundred million marrying me!


    It makes me look like a gold digger. I feel that my love for you suddenly be cheap. Though I want


    to deny it, I have to admit that I couldn''t stop thinking about that huge amount of money.


    Maybe five hundred million is nothing to youpared to your assets. But to me, it is a huge amount of


    money. The money has be a heavy stone ced on my heart leaving me unable to move a step.


    It shatters my dignity and confidence all at once.


    I''d love to hear you call me "honey" again with your sweet husky voice. I miss the smile you have when


    you''re plotting something. But it''s hard to see your smiles or vivid expressions now. I realize how happy


    my life has been with you around. Now with you in bed unconscious, I''m left with nothing.'' Daisy fixed


    her eyes on Edward through the window and buried herself in sad feelings.


    "Daisy, are you OK?" Tom didn''t mean to bother Daisy at first, but he changed his mind after seeing


    Daisy lost in thought. She had stood there for such a long time, unaware of his presence. Out of


    curiosity and concern, he had to make some noise to remind Daisy that he was there. He wondered


    what was on her mind.


    "Oh! It''s nothing." Daisy sniffled and forced the tears back. She suppressed the negative feelings and


    smiled to Tom. With tears still in her eyes, Daisy''s smile looked so delicate and attractive. Even a


    gentleman like Tom couldn''t help but fall for the expression on Daisy''s face. His heart stopped beating


    for a second.


    "I''ve brought you an ice pack for your face. I''ll apply some ointment to your face afterward." Tom forced


    himself to concentrate on the patient and stop thinking about how beautiful Daisy was. He couldn''t be


    too involved in admiring Daisy''s beauty even though he knew she was a charming woman. To him, she


    was someone he shouldn''t get too close to. He could only admire her from a safe distance. After all,


    she was her best friend''s wife. Tom shouldn''t have any inappropriate thoughts about Daisy.


    "Thank you!" Daisy took the ice pack from Tom and softly ced it on her wounded face. The coldness


    felt on the cheek was so healing that she couldn''t help but moan out of enjoyment.

    "It must hurt a lot!" Tom sat on a chair beside Daisy. Instead of sitting too close to her, he kept the


    necessary distance, which left an impression of a well-educated man.


    "No, not really. Not a big deal. But...Tom, are you sure it''s OK for you to stay here and be with us the


    whole day? What about your other patients?" The ice pack started to have more of an effect as they


    talked. Daisy''s expression shifted slightly from the pain. But she hid her feelings and concentrated on


    the conversation.


    "They''ll be fine. I''ve re-arranged my schedule, so all my consultations and surgeries will wait until


    tomorrow. My colleagues will also help me with other patients." Tom cozilyy his back on the chair as


    he answered Daisy''s questions. He was worried that Edward''s case might beplicated, so he had


    put off new surgeries in advance to avoid the dilemma of having to choose between different patients.


    "Then you''ll be super busy tomorrow." Daisy felt sorry for the inconvenience they brought to Tom. She


    knew Tom did it for Edward. The friendship between Tom and Edward was so powerful that Daisy found


    it hard topletely understand. The two men were like brothers to each other. If either of them got


    hurt, the other one would show great love and care.


    "I might be. But I can handle it." Tom raised his hand and frowned after he checked the time on his


    wristwatch. But he didn''t react to his worries at all. He didn''t want to scare Daisy. Tom predicted that


    Edward would wake up twelve hours after the surgery. And that diagnosis had already taken


    unexpected factors into ount. Normally, Edward would wake up within eight or ten hours. ''What''s


    wrong? Is it because of theplication that Edward had this morning? Is that why Edward hasn''t


    woken up?'' Tom mulled over possible exnations.
