William was preparing to leave the hospital with Valeria, whose fever had gone, when the maid that Lucas had sent arrived with a bowl of ginseng chicken soup.

William reached over for the soup and poured a bowl for Valeria delightedly.It was obvious that she needed it after having four IV drips just now.

However, Valeria refused to drink as she disliked the bitter taste of ginseng.

William could only feed her slowly while persuading her with gentle words until she had finished the entire bowl.

The maid was stunned as she never knew that William was such compassionate and gentle.

When she left the hospital, she immediately gave Lucas a call to update him, "Sir William is fine, he gave the soup to Miss Brown because she wasn't feeling well."

"Do you mean Sir William is not sick?"

Lucas was stunned as there would be trouble again.

"Yeah, he was just accompanying Miss Brown to the hospital," the maid continued, "They both finished the soup together though."

"Alright, thank you."

Lucas sighed before hanging up his phone.

After some debate, Lucas decided not to report the truth to Hayden as he was worried about Hayden's temper.

While he had just made the decision, Hayden came up to him to ask for an update, "How's William?"

"H...He's doing alright,"
