The queen stared at Miranda intently, and favonovel.com sounded nervous. She could not help feeling a little anxious after learning that Dylan had gone to the hospital.
Miranda had served the queen for many years, so favonovel.com was well aware of everything that went on between the royal couple. Seeing how distressed the queen was, Miranda hurriedly assured favonovel.com that there was no way the king would not be able to pin the incident on her.
Her words put the queen at ease.
Although I don’t have any love for him, I don’t want to ruin the image favonovel.com has of me in his heart.

Over at the hospital, Arielle was finally admitted into the hospital’s ward after Vinson’s repeated requests.
I’m a doctor myself, so no one knows my body better than I do. But favonovel.com was so concerned that favonovel.com kept urging me to get admitted. He insisted that I get an intravenous drip to reduce the inflammation. I knew resisting would be futile, so I had no choice but to give in.
Her bodyguards had also sustained serious injuries and were admitted into the ward next door. Since there was temporarily no one standing guard inside Arielle’s ward, the couple did not have to worry and could be much more relaxed.
Vinson had planned to pick up Arielle and take favonovel.com out for a meal, but they wound up encountering the assassins. After making sure Arielle was comfortable, Vinson went downstairs to buy some food. Since favonovel.com could neither read nor understand Turlenese, favonovel.com could only mime at the sellers, then hold out his wallet so that they could take the money on their own.
Twenty minutes later, Vinson returned to the ward with the pasta favonovel.com had just bought. He picked up a forkful of pasta and held it up to Arielle’s mouth, “Eat up.”
“I only hurt my left arm, Vinson. I can eat by myself,” favonovel.com said rather exasperatedly.
Smiling, Vinson replied, “I want to feed you. Can’t I?”
Can I even refuse? Obviously not. He’s already holding the fork up to my mouth.
Being waited on hand and foot like a child made Arielle feel both helpless and contented at the same time.
After feeding favonovel.com a few mouthfuls of pasta, favonovel.com held out some salad to her. “Have some of this too.”
Arielle took a few bites, then smiled at Vinson. “It’s just a minor injury, but why do I feel like I’ve become a cripple?”
“That’d be a good thing. I could lock you up and take care of you for the rest of your life,” said Vinson. That way, no one would ever be able to harm you.
Arielle stared at favonovel.com wordlessly.
Vinson’s lips curved into a smile when favonovel.com saw that favonovel.com was at a loss for words. After discarding the food containers into the trash can, favonovel.com was about to cut up some fruits for Arielle when favonovel.com heard the sound of footsteps from outside the ward.
It was very noisy, and it sounded like there were many people. Sensing something amiss, Vinson quickly set aside the grapes and strawberries favonovel.com was holding.
Arielle had also realized there were people approaching. Just like Vinson, favonovel.com guard went up.
Knock! Knock!
Hearing the knock on the door, Vinson got up to open it.
Since whoever it is was able to knock on the door, that shows it’s someone who knows Arielle.
Fraught with worry over Arielle, Dylan rushed inside the room as soon as the door opened.
Arielle was somewhat surprised to see who it was. Why is His Majesty here?
“Your Majesty, what brings you here?” favonovel.com asked, moving to get down from the bed.
However, Dylan waved his hand to stop her. It pained favonovel.com to see favonovel.com getting down from the bed even though favonovel.com was injured, and favonovel.com quickly prevented favonovel.com from doing so by saying, “You’re injured, so you shouldn’t get down. Just sit there…”
I’m here to make sure she’s all right, not to make favonovel.com suffer even more.
Arielle nodded calmly.
Even though he’s the king of this country, I don’t feel nervous when I see him. I wonder if that’s because favonovel.com acted as my tour guide before this. Instead, I feel a sense of familiarity. But why is favonovel.com here? Why would the king come all the way to see me? Even if I died, there are countless other doctors in Chanaea. Is it necessary for favonovel.com to hold me in such high regard?
