Let's Get Married

When Rex arrives, Lily just finished the first intravenous drip, and a nurse is replacing it with another one.

Lily is still asleep, with only Abby by her side waiting. It's very crowded in the emergency ward, so not a single vacancy is available.

Rex’s eyes lay on Lily’s pale little face. He feels like his legs were filled with lead, and even though he wants to walk to her, he can’t move his legs.

“Nurse, when will she wake up?” Abby is so concerned that she asks every now and then.

“When her fever is gone. Now her temperature is still too high and up to 42℃. She won’t be able to think straight. It’s better that she is asleep.”

“OK, thank you.” Abby turns to the nurse and thanks her, during which she glances at the tall figure standing behind her.

He is too conspicuous to not be noticed.

Abby is slightly stunned. Judging from his white sweater and slippers, she knows that he came straight here from home and didn’t even have time to change his shoes.

But it doesn’t matter how much he cares about Lily. If he was the one to blame for Lily’s illness, she would make sure he paid the price.

While thinking this, Abby walks towards Rex and questions him with a tough voice, “Were you with Lily last night?”

Rex’s adam's apple bobs twice in his throat, and he answers heavily, “Yes.”

“Did you know she was drugged?”

“No, I didn’t.”

Abby’s heart gets weaker. It would be
