Tristan remained in the intensive care unit for another day after waking up, slipping between consciousness and sleep, but Sophie stayed with him all the time.

When Arius came in to check on Tristan and confirmed that everything was fine, everyone felt relieved to leave.

“Get some rest, Sophie. I’ll be here. You have nothing to worry about.”

“I’m fine.”

Sophie just wanted to stay with Tristan, regardless of how long it would be. She felt safe around him.

“You don’t look good, though. I’m afraid you might pass out if you keep this up.”

Arius was bent on stopping her from staying.

“Go on,” he continued. “Go rest. I’ll stay with him.”

As a medical professor, Arius had the necessary skills to take care of Tristan, so he brought Sophie out of the ward before returning to Tristan.

Since Tristan was the man Sophie loved the most, Arius took it upon himself to give him the most attentive care.

Not long after, William arrived at the hospital. Sarah was startled when she saw him because it could only mean that the old man had found out that Tristan had been injured.

“Why are you here, Dad?”

“Why didn’t you tell me anything? Do you guys still take me as your father? Where’s Tristan? How’s he?” William questioned.

“He’s resting in the intensive care unit, Dad. Don’t worry. The surgery went well,” Sarah admitted when she knew she could no longer keep the secret.

“Can I go in and see him?”

William could not put his mind to rest unless he saw his youngest son for himself.

He was worried because Tristan was his favorite. He was the old man’s pride.

So, Sarah went to talk to Arius so the latter would go out and let William enter instead.

William was heartbroken when he saw Tristan in that state. As a child, Tristan had never made his father worry.
