Adolph was struck dumb.

Barbara sneered, "Go treat yourself!" After that, she turned around, walking away.

​​

When she was back in the ward, there was only Fannie left alone there.

"Mrs. Parker, are you alright?" Fannie asked with concern seeing Barbara's red swollen eyes.

"I'm fine. Where is Nate?" Barbara said.

"Oh, a nurse just came over and told him to change his dressing." Fannie poured a glass of water for Barbara. "Mrs. Parker, Ethan..."

Barbara sat at the bedside. She held the glass of water with one hand and held Ethan's hand with another. "He's unwilling to let it go."

No one who had been through that could let it go.

His wife was abducted away, and his babies were aborted. Most importantly, Kylie was still missing, and she could be in danger now.

Fannie licked her lips and asked in a quiet voice, "Mrs. Parker, can I talk to Ethan for a while?"

"Sure." Barbara nodded.

Fannie walked near. Looking at Ethan, who half-closed his eyes lying on the bed, she summoned up her courage. "Ethan, I always believe that you love Kylie more than anyone else, but I change my mind now."

Hearing Kylie's name, Ethan moved his eyes but had no other reactions.

Barbara held the glass tight. She understood Fannie was using Kylie to wake Ethan up.

"Ethan, if you really love Kylie, you should take revenge."

"Whoever abducted her, you should kidnap him."

"Whoever aborted your babies, you should make him suffer the same pain. The last thing you should do now was lie on the bed like this!" Fannie said very harsh words, and Barbara was nervous.

However, Ethan still did not react.

Fannie took a long breath in, then opened her mouth again. "Well, I do think Kylie should be together with Stephen."

Hearing that, Ethan frowned.

Fannie added, "Stephen loves her so much that he's willing to do everything for her. I heard that Stephen is going to give Kylie everything he has achieved in all kinds of ways."

"Kylie should love such a man who devotes everything to love her!"

The second Fannie finished, Ethan raised his eyes to look at her.

"Say that again." His voice was hoarse.

"If I were Kylie, I would choose to be with Stephen too!" Fannie said. "Um, i-if you really care about her, she must get revenge."

Ethan abruptly sat up on the bed and pulled out the infusion set from the back of his hand. "Fannie?"

"What?" Fannie was scared and hid herself at the back of Barbara at once.

The sleeping wolf was awake now.

"Thank you." Ethan got off the bed without delay.

When he just reached the door, he knocked on someone who was jumping inside.

"Ouch! Are you blind... Ethan?"

"Y-You're awake now?" Nate got back to his feet with the help of the wall. Seeing Ethan walking out without saying a word, he jumped forward in a hurry to follow him up. "Ethan, where are you going?"

"To find Kylie." Ethan strode ahead.

Fannie and Barbara ran outside the ward as well.

"Ethan, stop!" Barbara shouted at his back. "Even though you're going to find her, you should cure your injuries at first!"

Ethan stopped and turned around to glance at his mother. "I'm fine."

"You're fine? Your arms and back were burned, and you're telling me that you're fine?"

Nate jumped to the front of Ethan and stretched out his arms. "Step on my body if you want to leave today."

Ethan raised his hand and threw Nate away without hesitation. He didn't use much force, but it wasn't easy for Nate to get up.

"What's wrong with you!" Nate was annoyed. "Did anyone say something to him?"

Fannie looked at Barbara but didn't dare admit it.

Probably because Barbara had been through the same unforgettable romantic love and torture, she felt for Ethan. "Let him go," she sighed.

All of a sudden, she thought of Adolph.

It was also possible that Adolph became a little crazy because he couldn't accept the fact that she left him. Agnes could be her substitute in Adolph's eyes!

"Fannie, help Nate get back to his ward," Barbara said.

"Mrs. Parker, Ethan..." Fannie was worried.

"He'll take care of himself." Barbara left the hospital later.

Nate jumped back to his ward with the help of Fannie. "Whoever persuaded Ethan to find Kylie right now, he or she is stupid, and I'll punish him or her!"

Fannie didn't ask him until they were in the ward. "What do you plan to do?"

Nate slowly fell his sight on Fannie's face, and Fannie avoided meeting his eyes.

"Are you an idiot?" Nate was angry. "Do you know the burns on Ethan's back may be infected? What if he's caught by infection? That could kill him!"

Fannie argued. "Did you forget he had a great healing ability? His body could be fine lying in the hospital, but his heart is dead. I don't want to see Ethan lying like a dead person on the bed and fell himself to agony,"

Nate was struck dumb for a second, then pressed Fannie to his chest with his arms. "You're right. I was just too afraid to lose Ethan,"

He agreed with Fannie on what she had done, and he didn't dare do that.

No evidence showed Kylie was already dead. If Ethan stopped searching for her, Kylie could be gone forever.

At the same time, Kylie had no idea what Ethan had been through because of her.

She was taking care of Dinah with all her attention.

"How do you feel right now?" Kylie asked Dinah after feeding her soup.

Dinah rubbed her belly. "Is my baby still there? Why can't I feel it?"

Kylie smiled. "It's only a month old. I can only feel it when it's four months old."

Dinah stared at Kylie's stomach, which was slightly bulging right now. She feels envy with her. "Can I feel it?"

"Of course." Kylie pulled Dinah's hand to touch her stomach, and the baby moved a little inside.

Dinah was more excited than Kylie and drew her hand back at once. "It moved? It moved!"

"Your baby will do that too in the future." Kylie's eyes lit up when she talked about her baby. "You have no idea what Ethan has done for the baby."

"He sang children's songs to my belly! It's so amusing when he sings with his cold face!" Kylie laughed with happiness.

Dinah, instead, moved her hand away from her belly, and the smile disappeared from her face.
