Chapter 802
Moreover, the one who gave in first would undoubtedly have to pay a higher
price.
Eugene could have waited a bit longer. Lee felt it was a pity.
Melanie could not get out of bed to walk around but could use a wheelchair for a
stroll.
Xander draped a thick blanket over her with a worried expression on his
forehead. “If you feel cold, we can go back.”
Melanie shook her head. She had been in the ward for half a month and felt quite
bored.
Tugging at the blanket on her legs, she asked Xander, “Did the situation in Oskon
City cause you trouble? I guess we'll have to ask Oliver to make another trip
there,”
Originally, Melanie had scheduled a trip back to Oskon City to handle Redwaves'
affairs. However, Oliver had to go to her place due to the car accident.
Seeing that her blanket seemed to slip and considering her bandaged hands,
Xander crouched in front of her and adjusted the blanket for Melanie.
Their eyes met, and the distance between them shrunk. Xander's minty
fragrance spread through the air, overpowering the disinfectant smell.
Melanie's skin looked somewhat pale under the sunlight. She blinked a couple of
times and said softly, “Thank you.”
Xander grunted in response, gazing gently at Melanie. Suddenly, he smiled and
asked, “Why are you thanking me?”
Melanie's wounds were healing slower than expected, and her overall health had
deteriorated.
Despite Xander taking various precautions when bringing her out for a stroll in
the garden, she still caught a cold.
Now,
she was required to rest in the ward, with Yvonne checking on her daily.
“Xander spoils you, but I won't. You went out there when your body was still
weak. Do you know it's easier to catch a cold in spring?” Yvonne scolded
Melanie, then sighed softly.
She propped her chin up and looked at Melanie, saying, “You're lucky. If you had
gone for a stroll a day later, you might've encountered that scumbag, Eugene.”
Unable to hold back her words, Yvonne began complaining about various things.
Eugene was also hospitalized due to a gastric hemorrhage, and he was just
downstairs.
Yvonne cautiously looked at Melanie. “I'm telling you this just to remind you not to
go downstairs again. You know how shameless he is. If he pesters you again, it'd
be bad for you.”

Melanie said, “I won't go downstairs anymore.”
When Yvonne entered the ward, she did not close the door tightly enough. Both
of them did not notice a figure that stood frozen at the doorway,
Yvonne had something to do in the evening, and after she left, a nurse entered
the ward to check on
Melanie.
