Chapter 587

“Rosalie… If it’s possible, I don’t want you to thank me for anything,” murmured Calvin.

Throughout his life, he had always subconsciously maintained a distance from others. Even his friends, such as Alan, also commented on his aloof nature, which always created a sense of alienation.

It was as though, regardless of their efforts, nobody could ever penetrate his inner world.

However, he could finally comprehend what it meant to be unable to access someone’s inner world at that moment. Calvin had been making sincere efforts to get closer to her as he longed to be a part of her world, yet there was always an air of detachment in her interactions with him.

Despite her smiles toward him, it always felt like Rosalie was subtly declining his approach.

“What should I do to truly penetrate her inner world?” wondered Calvin.

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Rosalie had rushed to the floor where the pediatrics department’s inpatient department was. She approached the nurses’ station and provided Aiden’s name before finally locating his ward.

When she arrived, Aiden had already fallen asleep.

Laying on the hospital bed, Aiden’s calves were wrapped in thick white bandages. There were bruises all over his swollen face. His eyes also looked swollen, even when they were closed, indicating that someone had beaten him.

Rosalie also spotted Matilda, who sat by Aiden’s hospital bed and was silently shedding tears.

Rosalie gently stepped forward, mindful not to wake Aiden, and asked in a lowered voice, “Mrs. Haab, what happened to Aiden?”

“Oh, Rosalie, you’re here…” sighed Matilda while looking at Rosalie. “Aiden got into a fight with other kids at kindergarten and… ended up like this. We’ve already done a bunch of tests today, and he might need more tests tomorrow. The doctor said that his injuries aren’t severe, but still, it’s a cause for concern…” she rambled.
