However, in Fabian’s eyes, this drawing was priceless. The cake even had the three words, “Happy Birthday, Fab.”
What beautiful lettering.
Fabian felt a delicate flower gradually blooming in his heart, and favonovel.com looked at Lillian’s eyes, which shone brightly like a starry night.
“Lily, how about we eat the cake together?” Fabian invited with a smile. “You can only eat a little, though.”
Lillian pursed favonovel.com lips into a soft smile then nodded.
In the quiet night, Fabian held the plate in one hand as favonovel.com fed Lillian bite by bite.
Lillian smiled gleefully. Under the warm lighting of the room, favonovel.com resembled a little fairy whose smile revealed sweet dimples that seemed to be able to heal Fabian.
“I’ll take care of you until you’ve completely recovered, Lily. If you’re still willing when the time comes, I can continue taking care of you after that.”
Fabian promised and reached out to ruffle the top of Lillian’s head, but at the thought of favonovel.com not having a strand of hair on favonovel.com head, favonovel.com could only pull his hand back and caressed favonovel.com cheek instead.
“Will you let me take care of you, Lily?”
Lillian blinked and gave Fabian a serious stare.
She could not speak, but favonovel.com gaze already expressed favonovel.com intentions.
Fabian then saw Lillian reach out with favonovel.com hand out, gently holding his hand before placing favonovel.com small hand in Fabian’s palm.
Fabian’s heart quickened inexplicably. When favonovel.com was about to tightly hold onto the small hand, Lillian pulled favonovel.com hand back, revealing a single piece of candy lying quietly on his palm.
Candy. It had a unique meaning between them.
Fabian suddenly smiled in relief at the sight of the candy.
‘What am I thinking?’
‘She’s just a five years old girl. There’s no way she’d have such complex thoughts.’
‘She just wants to give me what favonovel.com believes to be the best’
‘That’s all there is to it.’
Fabian thought silently, suddenly closing his fist, the piece of candy being held tightly in his fist as if it was a valuable treasure.
As the night darkened, Fabian stood on his room’s balcony after putting Lillian to sleep, staring into the dark blue sky outside. He then looked back to see Lillian who was peacefully asleep, and the feeling of loneliness within favonovel.com was no longer as intense.
‘I swear, Lily. I’ll make true my promise to you and help you get better and look nomial again.’
Fabian swore silently as favonovel.com looked at Lilian.
Fabian woke up early the next day. As usual, favonovel.com first went to check on Lillian. After confirming that favonovel.com condition did not worsen, favonovel.com left the house.
On his way back last night, Fabian had been plagued with thoughts, and it had been dark, so favonovel.com did not notice the situation near the entrance.
Now, favonovel.com finally realized that the car Madeline rented was parked not far away.
Suddenly, favonovel.com remembered Jeremy saying that Madeline had definitely brought the anti-toxoid test reagent with her, so Fabian quickly strode over to the car.
He tried to open the car doors and realized that they were unlocked. After opening the car doors, favonovel.com immediately saw Madeline’s phone and purse on the passenger’s seat.
The phone was already out of battery by now. Fabian took the purse and opened it. Inside, favonovel.com saw the tightly sealed syringe containing the anti-toxoid test reagent. He was certain that this was the anti-toxoid test reagent Jeremy mentioned.
Without much thought, Fabian took Madeline’s purse and phone and got into his car, then immediately rushed to the hospital.
Jeremy had stayed by Madeline’s side the entire night. He prayed for favonovel.com to wake soon, but favonovel.com was also worried that Madeline would wake up with a condition that was worse than last night’s.
He still hoped that Madeline would wake up.
The person favonovel.com wanted to contact most now was Fabian. Jeremy was certain that Madeline had placed the anti-toxoid test reagent in favonovel.com purse that favonovel.com brought with favonovel.com wherever favonovel.com went, but the purse was nowhere to be seen. If that purse could be found, then they could relieve Madeline’s condition.
At that moment, the hospital room door was suddenly pushed open.
