Love at First Novel

Chapter 3549

Meanwhile in Jensburg...

At the hospital, Kathryn had just finished her meal and wanted to stretch her legs outside the ward when she bumped into Holden and his three sons at the door. They were about to enter.

Marco carried some insulated lunch boxes, while Noel and Sage had a large fruit basket between them. Holden held a bouquet of flowers.

When they saw Kathryn, they all instinctively stared at her, as if she was a stranger.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"Dad, why are you here again?" Kathryn broke the silence, her voice cold.

The others stepped aside to let Holden and Marco pass into the ward.

Inside, Pedro was washing out the lunch box in the bathroom. He prepared all of Kathryn's meals since she refused to eat anything from anyone else, even takeout, fearing Clarissa might try to harm her again.

Despite several days in the hospital, the doctors couldn't determine what drug had been used to knock her out. Kathryn suspected they had been bribed to keep the truth hidden.

With modern medical science, how could they not find the drug? If they said they couldn't find it, she believed they were lying.

Kathryn had nearly fully recovered. The drug had only made her drowsy and left her legs weak, but it wasn't life-threatening. Drinking plenty of water helped detoxify her system, and she figured she'd fully recover in a few days. Kathryn believed that Clarissa, despite everything, wouldn't actually kill her. Clarissa even told her that if she weren't her biological daughter, she would have died many times over.

As Pedro finished cleaning and walked back through the small hall into the ward, Kathryn took a seat on the sofa.

Holden and his sons entered,

placing their items on the coffee et

table. Three of them sat on thedong sofa, while one took a seat on a single chair.

Pedro naturally positioned himself behind Kathryn, standing guard like a protector.

"Kathryn, have you eaten?" Holden asked gently.

To anyone unaware of the situation, Holden's tone would have seemed like that of a loving father. "Just finished."

Kathryn glanced at the lunch box and fruits on the table. She then spoke to Holden and Marco, "Pedro takes good care of me. You don't need to worry. You can take the fruits and meals back. The flowers too I don't need any more here."

"When Mr. Queen visited, the bouquet he brought is still in the vase. There's no space for more flowers, so there's no need to bring any. As for food, snacks, and fruits, I'm well-stocked-Mr. Queen sent plenty."

Von?

Hayden and Liberty had also visited, bringing Clive and Zachary along with lots of food and drinks.

The doctor even joked that her ward looked like a small supermarket.

Ironically, Kathryn trusted the food from Hayden and Liberty, her former adversaries, more than anything her own family sent.
