Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 533

Once the couple was gone, Zoe looked away only to meet Daniel’s gaze. She cleared her throat and pulled her hand away. “It’s not that serious. I can walk by myself. You don’t have to—”

“I can hold you in my arms if you’d like.”

Zoe whispered, “Please don’t.”

Daniel propped her up and helped her walk, and they left the hospital.

Zoe stared outside the window on the way back. She had nothing to say to Daniel. Once she was home, she lay on the bed and took the pills and glass of water from Daniel. After she took her pills, she said, “Thanks. There’s nothing for you to do here anymore, so you can go back now.”

Daniel tucked her in. “I’m not leaving.”

Zoe sat up. “What?”

Daniel held her shoulders and pushed her back down gently. “You need to rest for a bit. Doctor’s orders. I’ll be taking care of you. I’ll sleep on the couch outside. I won’t get in your way.”

Zoe quickly waved her hands. “It’s alright. Nana sent one of her servants here to take care of me. She’s a good cook. I appreciate the thought, but I don’t need it, Daniel.”

“She can make breakfast and lunch for you. But what about dinner? Or supper.”

“I can—”

Daniel continued, “And you don’t have to trouble anyone if you have me.”
