Chapter 221: In the Ward

After the accident, Lily asks for a long leave, she also has planned for her future work. Even she works
on the upper floor of Rex’s workplace, the two do not meet again.

It is not until the day when Harry is pushed into the operating room, the man comes over hurriedly.

The tall figure is against the light of the end of the corridor, which makes people feel extremely
oppressed. He glances at Lily and Bree who are sitting on the bench in the corridor. Instead of rushing
over, he talks to the medical staff on the side.

“The patient’s condition is not bad before entering the operating room. There should be no problem.
The surgeon is also the best doctor in the department. Rex, you can rest assured.” The head of the
nurse consoles him, knowing that this man is not an ordinary person. He is Dean Karl’s best friend.
Thus, she treats his matters seriously.

Once Rex listens to it, he is relieved. However, his vision unconsciously looks at the direction of the
petite woman.

After their last quarrel, he has not met her for nearly half a month. He knows that she does not want to
meet him. Marina’s issues could not be resolved in a day, and she will not dismiss it.

And he also has some complaints towards her. No matter how mad she was, she should not push
Marina. This is a matter of principle.

Therefore, he does not visit her, intending to leave room for both of them to calm down. However, he
secretly pays a lot of attention. Karl said that he is seeking troubles for himself, and he can only smile
bitterly and could not say much.

However, she is now bowing her body and looking at the ground with her head lowered, that originally
small palm-sized face is sharpened. The flesh in both cheeks is gone; it sunken a little, making her look



more fleshless. Seeing such an appearance, there is no more anger in his heart but only distress.

That sourness seems to erode his heart, making him powerless, as if his limbs are soaked in water.

He ponders for a while and finally surrenders to his desire, and then walks towards her.

Lily knows that he is walking towards her, but she doesn’t raise her head. She doesn’t want to see him,
sincerely. Bree reacts first. He straightens her body and calmly looks at the man with extraordinary
aura in front of her.

“Mr. Rex.” Bree greets him in a cold voice. Her tone is neither high nor low, but her attitude hurts Rex.

Rex slightly closes his eyes; his eyelashes collapse and cast a black shadow on the eyelids. His
charming Adam’s apple rolls. After hesitating for a while, he finally speaks, “Don’t worry about Uncle
Harry. He is in a stable condition. And the operation will soon be done.”

Bree secretly breathes a sigh of relief, but her expression is still indifferent. Lily and Harry have
suffered so many grievances because Rex, so naturally she wouldn’t treat him well like she did before.

“Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Rex.” Bree thanks him and then adds, “The birth and death is the
natural course of everyone. We are all clear about Harry’s condition. So, don’t bother to worry about
him, Mr. Rex.”

She alienates Rex by saying these words. Rex, of course, understands immediately.

But he does not rush to refute; instead, he turns his gaze to Lily, who has been standing at the door
without saying a word. She has maintained the same posture ever since he came over.
