Like before, a cold voice prompt from the service provider was heard.
Her heart ached all of a sudden but she had to pretend to be calm.

Keeping it the secret for an extra day and allowing Shea's health to improve was better than giving her the news immediately.
Wesley glared at her slightly.
He thought she would tell Shea the truth and was surprised when she did not.
"Okay." There was disappointment in Shea's eyes and she asked nervously, "Will he blme? Will he be angry with me?" "No, Shea. He won't be angry at you. He misses you a lot, actually.” Avery held her hand. "Trust me." Shea immediately felt relieved. "I trust you and Wesley the most. And my brother too." "Rest more. You'll get a surprise once you're discharged from the hospital.” Avery wanted to tell the truth only after Shea was discharged from the hospital.
"Okay. I'm feeling a little sleepy, so I'll head to sleep for now. Please wakeup if he’s here." Shea spoke in a weak voice.

"Avery, you won't be able to hide this from her until she's discharged from the hospital,” Wesley whispered. "She'll be in the hospital for at least half a month, and if she doesn't see Elliot after a week, she'll definitely becsuspicious.” "Then we'll tell her after a week. She's still too weak now, and it might affect her recovery if she suffers such a huge blow," said Avery, expressing her opinion. "My teachers once toldthat recovery is dependent on mood and that her recovery would not be smooth if she is in a bad mood. In this case, the disease will usually take a long tto recover. If the patient is in a good mood and has a positive attitude, their recovery will usually be much faster." "Okay. Then we'll keep it from her for now! | was thinking about letting Adrian meet Shea." Wesley smiled. "Adrian is genuinely a very nice person. He smiles atwhenever he sees me." "They're just as kind as each other.” "We need to arrange accommodations for them when they get discharged," said Avery as she rubbed her eyes. "My eyes aren't feeling their best. | haven't rested well in the past few days, 2c); XIS; I've been having double vision. I'll go get smedication." "Would you like to get it checked?" Wesley accompanied her. "I'll go with you." "It's fine. | just didn't sleep well. I'll be okay once | get smedication.” "Did you take any sleeping pills yesterday too?" Wesley asked.
"| ate half a tablet so | won't oversleep today," she laughed in spite of herself. "The feeling of falling asleep after taking medicine is different from falling asleep naturally." "That's for sure. Every medicine has its side effects. You need to readjust your sleep patterns as soon as possible because it'd be better for you to fall asleep by yourself." "I won't take any sleeping pills tonight, but I'll go for a run in the nearby park after dinner.” "Great. I'm feeling more relieved after seeing you gradually getting less stressed.” Wesley accompanied her to buy smedicine.
In the evening, she chome, changed into her sportswear, and was ready to go out for a run.
She remembered Lilith just before she went out and hesitated briefly before dialing Lilith's number.
It was just over seven or so in the morning at Aryadelle.
Lilith answered the phone in a daze.
