Chapter 1365

Seeing that, Neera couldn't help but feel somewhat uncomfortable.

It was not that she was overly worried about Wrenn, but as a doctor, she always felt uneasy seeing patients sufferand their families tormented.

That was especially the case when those two people were closely related to Jean.

Those past few days, she hadn't spoken to Wrenn, nor did she feel like comforting the latter in any way.

However, at that moment, she saw Wrenn's eyes were fixed intently on the door of the intensive care unit, notlooking away for even a second. Wrenn's eyes were filled with hope and anticipation, as well as a deep sense oflonging and worry.

Suddenly, Neera understood the depth of that woman's love for her husband.

Once upon a time, in her eyes, Wrenn was nothing more than a harsh woman.

A proud individual who looked down on everything and was stubbornly opinionated.

At that moment, she suddenly had some different opinions about the older woman.

Neera stood at the corner of the corridor for a long time. Then, she walked over and cleared her throat.

Upon hearing the sound, Wrenn turned her head in confusion.

“Neera, you're here.” Seeing her, Wrenn immediately flashed a subtle smile, stood up, and pointed to the seat nextto her. “Come, have a seat.”

During that period, she had always been so polite to Neera.

Neera always felt a bit uncomfortable and said lightly, “No need.”

Wrenn's expression seemed to freeze for a moment. After a few seconds, she nodded awkwardly. “All right, allright...”

Neera realized belatedly that her subconscious refusal seemed a bit too harsh.

After a moment of hesitation, she explained somewhat awkwardly, “I'll be leaving soon, so I won't sit down.”

Wrenn seemed surprised that Neera would take the initiative to speak, her expression somewhat delighted. “Allright. Do you have anything else to attend to?”

After asking a series of questions, she wore a look of embarrassment on her face. “I'm sorry for the trouble I'vecaused you recently, and for making you tired...”

Neera found it somewhat grating, a slight frown creasing her brow as she interrupted, “It's no trouble at all. Theman lying there is Jean's biological father. His matters are my matters. I don't want him to worry.” novelbin

“Well, in any case, thank you,” Wrenn said awkwardly, her voice slightly lowered.

Wrenn's demeanor made Neera somewhat uncomfortable.

Enduring again and again, she didn't even know what she was thinking. The words just naturally slipped out ofher mouth. “You don't have to be so polite with me. I'm used to the way you were before. You don't need to act

humbly just because I helped you. Jean would feel uncomfortable seeing that. It's best if we just conversenormally.”

Upon hearing Neera's words, Wrenn was taken aback, staring at the former's cold expression for quite some time.

The bitterness unfurled in the depths of Wrenn's heart, and she spoke slowly. “I'm not being humble, I just... wantto make amends.”

Neera calmly said, “There's no need. What's done is done, and no one can change that. You don't need tooverthink things now. Just take care of yourself. Mr. Frederic may be heartbroken if he learns how you've beendoing after waking up. Jean will also feel upset. Even if you don't do it for yourself, you should consider Jean andMr. Frederic.”

Wrenn still had that bewildered look on her face, as if she didn't understand what Neera was trying to say.

Neera frowned deeply, her voice grave as she said, “You sit here every day, unable to eat, barely sleeping, andyou're getting thinner and thinner. Have you ever considered how Jean feels? If Mr. Frederic doesn't get better, doyou plan to continue like this? Why can't you think about others for once? Jean is already busy enough. Do youreally want to distract him further and add to his burdens?”

Although those words might sound harsh, they were effective.

Wrenn's expression showed a slight change, but she still remained silent for a long time.

Neera crossed her arms, continuing in a cold voice, “Your body is your own. If you wear it down and youcollapse, no one else can bear that burden for you. When that time comes, it's not just you who will suffer fromillness, but your family will also be tormented. Mr. Frederic has already caused enough worry for everyone. If

you insist on causing trouble at this time, I won't stop you. However, if Jean collapses because of this, I will notforgive you.”

Upon hearing those words, Wrenn suddenly stood up, her eyes blazing as she stared at Neera. Her gaze held athousand words, complex and hard to decipher.

However, in the end, she didn't say anything, her eyes just gradually turned red.

She didn't know how much time had passed. As she cried, she choked back her sobs and said, “I understand now.Thank you, I really appreciate it.”

She understood that Neera was advising her to take good care of herself.

In an instant, feelings of being touched and gratitude intertwined in Wrenn's heart. Thank goodness she is stillwilling to talk to me. Thankfully, I still have a chance to earn her forgiveness...

Neera would rather watch her silently weep. It made him uncomfortable, yet he also felt a secret sigh of relief.

She awkwardly averted her gaze, speaking straightforwardly. “No need to thank me. I didn't do this for you. Aslong as you understand that, it's fine. There are medical staff watching over Mr. Frederic. If anything happens,they will notify you promptly. If you plan to take care of him in the future, you should rest now. I've arranged ahospital room for you to rest in, not far from here.”

Wrenn nodded, expressing her gratitude once again. “Thank you.”

Before leaving, she couldn't help but ask again, “Neera, about the heart matter...”

Neera spoke the truth. “I haven't found it yet. I'm still asking others to look for it.”

Wrenn bit her lip, nodding with a worried expression, and didn't ask anything further.
