Let Me Stay The Night

Sharon was injured and admitted to the hospital twice in a row. Christina was sure that it had something to do with Gideon, so she was annoyed when she saw him.

Gideon was holding an exquisite fruit basket in his hand. After rubbing his sleeves down, he handed the fruit basket over to Christina with a dry smile. His tired eyes shimmered with expectation. It was clear he was trying to please Christina.

“I came to see your mother and bought some fruit for her.” Worried that Christina might detest his effort, he added immediately, “I bought it with money that I earned myself. It’s clean.”

Christina studied Gideon without any expression on her face.

The clothes that Gideon was wearing were made with cheap material. His shirt was so well-worn that the threads had come off the cuffs. As for his black pants, there were some fluffs on the knee area. His canvas shoes were clean, but the soles were coming off.

He looked old and exhausted, and his head was filled with white hair.

The father she remembered used to be so confident and insisted on wearing branded stuff. That man was long gone. The downfall of the Steele family changed him not only in terms of lifestyle but also his character.

Christina refused to accept the fruit basket. Gideon did not know what to do. He lowered his gaze and said, “If it’s inconvenient, I will come another time.”

“Aren’t you here to see my mom? Go on.” Christina moved aside to let him in. “She has just regained consciousness and is looking good this morning. But she can’t take any more surprises. Please watch yourself and don’t hurt her.”

Gideon was delighted and surprised at the same time. As he spoke, he tried to hold back his tears. “Thank you. Thank you for allowing me to see her!”

Christina pursed her lips and turned around to open the door for him.

When Bailey saw Gideon, she got out of the room while holding a soup bowl, then pulled Christina to one corner.
