At the sight of Carter, Ada’s face paled, and she closed her mouth in panic.

Carter’s deep, cold eyes swept over Ada’s face before settling on Shirley’s.

“You’re awake.”

Indifferent, Shirley chuckled. “Mr. Gray, you have a good sight. You’re right. I’m awake.”

“Since you’re awake, get out of bed. We’ll be going to the hospital for a full examination shortly.”

After speaking, Carter threw a glance at Ada and left.

Ada knew that Carter was reminding her to attend to Shirley’s needs as Shirley got out of bed.

Shirley had not noticed Carter’s look at Ada, but she did feel that Ada’s attitude had improved after Carter left.

Ada had even assigned a servant to bathe Shirley and change her clothes. In the end, Ada even smiled when asking Shirley for her breakfast preference.
