After a long while, Andrew slowly said, “Hi, guys.”
Rhett patted his shoulder without saying anything, knowing that he was
worried about Grace.

Finally, eight hours had passed.
Grace emerged from the room, looking exhausted.
After reassuring Colin, who was sleeping, Rhett moved forward to hold. Grace.
Despite the redness in his eyes, Andrew asked, “Ms. Parrish, how is it?”
Grace pinched her eyebrows and nodded. “The operation was successful. Grace will probably wake up this week. She will need to remain hospitalized for monitoring potential rejection responses.
Andrew finally felt relieved, his face almost breaking into a smile but not quite managing it.
Rhett kneaded her palm distressedly. “I’ll take you to rest.”

sure Grace was doing fine.
As Andrew watched Grace do the examination, he became nervous
instantly when she sighed.
“Ms. Parrish, is Grace’s body…”
Grace interrupted him frustratedly, “You should go get some rest. If you fall ill, Grace will feel guilty when she wakes up. Besides, only you can tell her about what happened to Kash.”
Andrew shook his head frustratedly, looking at Grace with heartache. Before he went to rest, he said, “If Grace wakes up, please tell me.”
Grace nodded and urged him to rest.
Grace and Andrew spent nearly all of their time in Grace’s ward this week. However, Grace hadn’t woken up after a week. Andrew and Grace.
