The room was deathly silent.
Luke Land thought it over but still didn't dare to speak again.
Sophie Smith looked at Asher Land's face, now tinged with anger, and slightly raised the corners of her lips.
"I see your fever has gone down, you should be fine now, I'll head back first, you should get some rest."
"Can you not leave today?" He wrapped his arms around her waist, pressing his chin against her forehead, "I'm still not well, I feel uncomfortable all over. Stay here for a while, and leave once I'm better?"
"Stop it." She removed the large hands wrapped around her waist, "If I stay here, what about Irene and your father? And Alexander is still at the Davis Family, what about that?"
Between them, there was just too much to consider.
"I'm leaving." After saying that, without waiting for Asher Land to say anything, she swiftly disappeared from his sight. He wanted to follow, but his steps were so unsteady that he could hardly stand firm.
