Chapter 1096
As a blind person, the scariest thing that could happen was a change in environment, not the fact that he couldn't
see. The little wooden house had always been his shell for the past six months, and hiding within this shell brought
him a sense of safety and comfort.
"Please calm down, sir. You have injured your back. That's why you'll have to be hospitalized for a short period of
time. Don't worry. We will make sure to take good care of you," The nurse consoled him patiently.
Despite this, Jovan flung his arms like he was in a manic episode and yelled, "Get lost! I don't need your care! Get
lost right now!"
"Where's my guardian!? Where is she?! I only want her!" The man's voice was filled with anger and desperation as
if he was a child, worried that he had just been abandoned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe nurse frowned sadly. "I'm sorry, I... I don't know where your guardian is, either. You were alone in this ward
when I came."
Jovan's face turned pale as a sheet, and he begged the nurse, "I'll pay you to send me home! I'll pay you however
much you want! She'd be worried if I wasn't home! Please!"
"Uhm... We can't do that, sir. Do you perhaps have her number? Why don't I give her a call instead?"
"Alright, her number is..."
Just as Jovan was about to say Renee's number, he suddenly realized something and fell silent.
"Sir? Her number is...?"
"It's okay. There's no need to call her," Jovan said as his frustrations suddenly died down.
If she had really wanted to ditch him, there was no use in asking for her to come back. He would certainly not
blame her for leaving, as he was content that they got to spend those past six months together, along with all the
love and care she provided him.
Suddenly, Renee pushed open the door to the ward, letting out a sigh of relief as soon as she saw him. "Thank the
gods. You're finally awake! You scared me to death!"
Jovan's handsome face brightened immediately after he heard her voice.
"You... You didn't leave? You weren't thinking of abandoning me?"
Renee froze, then chuckled. "Silly, do you really think I'm that type of person? If I really wanted to abandon you, I
would've done so long ago!"
She then held his hand and teased him. "I haven't even given you a lecture! How could you climb that tree when
you're blind? If I came home any later, would you have wanted to climb the roof instead?!"
"I just wanted to pick some cherries for you because I heard you wanted some. You could eat them once you come
home from the marketplace."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I can pick them if I want to eat them that badly. Your main mission here is to take care of yourself." Renee was
touched, but she wasn't used to saying melodramatic words.
"Yeah, a burden like me should just stay put and not give you trouble..." Joavn said weakly.
Although he had always been wasting his life away and cared for nothing in his life in the past, the man had never
felt so useless before.
"Atta boy!" Renee patted him on the head and stood up, bringing over the small piece of cake she bought. "Are you
in a bad mood? I bought something good for you, okay? I'm sure you'll feel much better once you've had some!"
"What is it?"
"Open your mouth." Renee scooped up some cake and fed it to Jovan.
"It's yummy." Jovan was thoroughly comforted as if he really was a child.
Desserts were truly the key to happiness.
Next to them was the nurse from earlier. She was simply touched and envious of their relationship as she thought,'
This really is... true love!'
