He was feeling utterly helpless.

Not only did the woman not love him any more, she had even tried to kill herself because of another man.He wondered if she was truly so in love with this man that she was willing to abandon her children!

“Sylvia, you've really done it this time,” Odell said with a deep chuckle as a gleam flashed in his eyes before he released herface.

He stood up and said to his bodyguards, “Release him and move out. There’s no need for all of you to come to this placeanymore.”

The bodyguards were shocked by his order and responded with a loud, “Yes, sir!”

Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt her chest seize up with panic, as if her heart was experiencing a cramp. The furtherOdell walked away, the stronger the cramp became.

She believed that it must have been the water that was interfering with her breathing.

Taking a deep breath, she pushed the thought aside. After the bodyguards and Odell left, she got up and ran over toThomas.

Thomas was still curled up on the ground.

She held his arm and said, “Thomas, hold on. I'll take you to the hospital.”

She mustered up all of her strength and pulled him up from the ground.

“You're being stupid. What if something really happens to you?” he asked weakly.

Sylvia anxiously assisted him outside and said, “I just wanted to save you. I’m capable of swimming, so even if Odell had notsaved me, | still wouldn’t have drowned.”

It's just that she had not expected Odell to spare Thomas and remove all of the bodyguards. It seemed that he would not beimprisoning Thomas anymore.

Thomas frowned as he said, “You cannot put your life at risk like that anymore.”Sylvia smiled at him. “Don’t worry, | won't.”

Thomas did not say anything further, but he would stare at her with his deep gaze from time to time. After a long time, once herealized that Sylvia was no longer looking his way, his lips curled up into a grin.

Sylvia took him to a hospital that was well-known for its orthopedic division.

They were fortunate that they had made it there just in time. The doctor gave him a full examination and with the propertreatment, they were able to save his left hand from being completely destroyed.

However, it would still take him a few months to recover.

Thomas had to be hospitalized for two days, so Sylvia stayed back to accompany him.

Sylvia followed the nurses as they transferred him to a quiet ward.

Thomas changed into his hospital gown and laid down on the bed. With a smile, he said, “I’m fine. Go back and have some rest.”Sylvia rubbed her tired eyes and said with a smile , “I’m not tired. I'll just go back in the morning.” 1

He did not try to persuade her any further but stared at her warmly instead.

After some time, one of the nurses brought in a meal.

It was the delivery food that Sylvia had ordered. The container contained a salad and several other side dishes made out oforganic ingredients.

She brought the takeout container over to Thomas and placed the food on the plate for him. “You should eat something.”

“Okay.” He nodded and ate slowly with his right hand.

Sylvia watched him finish his food before she took the plate and the box outside.

When she came back, she saw that he was leaning back against the pillows with his eyes closed, seemingly asleep.Sylvia went over to adjust his posture properly so that he could rest more comfortably.

Just as she was about to leave, he held her hand and stopped her.

“Please , don’t leave...” His eyes remained closed as he murmured. It was as if he was dreaming about her.

Sylvia answered softly, “I’m here, don’t worry.” He did not release her hand, so Sylvia pulled the chair over and sat down besidehim.

The room was quiet and the temperature was just nice.

After a while, she fell asleep since she was exhausted as well.Once she had fallen fast asleep, the man opened his eyes.He began to smile as he looked at her affectionately.

Under the lights, his face looked healthy without any sign of weakness. There was a cunning look on his face, making him lookmore like an evil mastermind who had

just achieved his evil goal.
