His kiss was gentle, with a slight chill, like the morning dew.
Summer Sutton’s body stiffened for a moment, letting him kiss her, without pushing him away.
Adrian Walyon’s lips lingered a bit longer on hers, the kiss lasted for several minutes at least.
Looking at her face, which had turned rosy from lack of oxygen after being pale for days, he finally let her go.
"Are you hungry?" He asked, looking at her.
"Hungry." Summer Sutton nodded.
"What do you want to eat? I’ll have the maid make it," Adrian Walyon asked again. Google seaʀᴄh N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Summer Sutton’s stomach was empty now, and she wanted to eat anything.
"Grilled wings, roasted pig trotters, kebabs..." She listed many options.
Adrian Walyon gave her a peculiar look and mildly said, "Eat those when you’re better, for now, have something light."
Not knowing what odd food she might think of later, Adrian Walyon made a call to the maid at home and decided himself to have porridge sent over.
They had a simple dinner at the hospital, and in the evening, Adrian Walyon didn’t go back home. He just had the maid bring their clothes and stayed the night at the hospital with Summer Sutton.
After staying with Summer Sutton in the hospital for five days, delaying company matters, on the sixth day, he handled the discharge procedures for Summer Sutton, and they went back to their little home together.
Adrian Walyon seemed to dislike the smell of disinfectant, so after returning, he went upstairs for a long shower.
Summer Sutton sat on the terrace sofa, quietly looking in the direction of the bathroom, slightly lost in thought.
He didn’t like the smell of the hospital, yet he stayed there with her for so many days.
Although their marriage was born out of mutual need, for now, it seemed Adrian Walyon was the only one who had brought warmth to her world...
Gina Sutton had not dared to leave the house for several days after orchestrating Summer Sutton’s accident.
She constantly checked the news on her phone daily, hoping to see reports of someone dying in the snowy night.
However, she found nothing similar in the news.
Gina Sutton was momentarily confused whether Summer Sutton was alive or dead.
If she was dead, it would be good, a relief, and no one would know what she did.
But if she wasn’t dead, she would still need to rack her brains later.
Each day not seeing news about deaths disappointed Gina Sutton.
After staying home for a full week, on Monday, she just went to school, coincidentally meeting Adrian Walyon’s car dropping Summer Sutton off at school.
Summer Sutton was clearly not lightly injured, still wrapped in bandages.
She insisted on coming to school because she feared missing too many classes would prevent her from graduating.
Unaware of Gina Sutton, Summer Sutton waved at Adrian Walyon and was about to enter the school.
Adrian Walyon pulled her towards him, pressed her face close to his, and kissed her for quite a while before letting her go.
"Wait for me to pick you up tonight." He instructed, and Adrian Walyon’s car slowly left.
Gina Sutton stood not far away, quietly watching the scene, shocked and jealous.
She actually didn’t die!
She survived such an accident!
Not only was she alive, but she was flaunting affection right in front of her!
The more Gina Sutton thought about it, the more troubled her heart became, her nails nearly breaking the skin of her palm.
In fact, Summer Sutton didn’t even see her at all, she watched Adrian Walyon’s car go far away and went straight to the classroom.
Gina Sutton’s gaze followed her figure, feeling particularly unwilling.
