Chapter 219 Press Against His Pale Lips
Eden’s eyes turned crimson.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
In his impression, Sterling has always been powerful and capable, even though he appears cold and distant to strangers, he is still vibrant.
When did it look so pale and weak, as if it could be on the verge of death at any moment, just like now?
Eden saw Sterling motionless and wanted to shake him awake. Audrey took a step forward and stopped Eden's action.
“You should have been shot in the chest, don’t touch him!”
Audrey leaned over the edge of the bed, took a deep breath, and tried to calm her racing emotions.
He reached out his little hand and touched Sterling’s forehead.
It was so hot that it burned my hand!
He had a high fever!
“Two days ago, | went hunting in Maple Mountain. Unexpectedly, | didn’t catch any prey. Instead, | came across a young boy covered in blood. He gave me a watch and asked me to help him escape!”
“He didn’t let me call for an ambulance. Luckily, | had worked as a village doctor before and | managed to remove the bullet from his chest!”
“He was also amazing. Despite not having enough anesthesia, though an ordinary person couldn’t bear such pain, he didn’t utter a
even
word!”
“Although | removed the bullet for him, | don’t have enough medication here. His wound got infected and he developed a high fever!”
“| was worried about what to do. If things continued like this, even if he didn’t die, it would definitely lead to trouble!”
Audrey looked at the unconscious boy lying on the bed, her heart. feeling as if it were being tightly squeezed by an invisible hand, causing a sharp and suffocating pain that overwhelmed all her senses, making it almost impossible for her to breathe! She tilted her head slightly and forced back the tears well up in her eyes.
Mat were about to
Take off the backpack on the back and take out the first aid kit from inside.
Pouring two pills out of the bottle, | held his gaunt jaw and fed them into his mouth..
But he couldn't swallow it.
Audrey pursed her lips and took out a bottle of water from her bag.
She put the medicine into her mouth, drank some water, pressed her pale lips against his colorless ones.
and then
Eden saw this scene, if it were in the past, he would definitely have jeered mockingly.
But now, he unconsciously welled up with tears.
What the hell is this all about?!

Chloe became a vegetable person, while Sterling lay here severely injured. If he and Audrey hadn't found this place, he wouldn’t have known what he would have been burned into.
Eden never used to shed tears, but this time, he turned away and forcefully wiped his eyes.
After Audrey fed Sterling the fever-reducing medicine, she opened the gauze on his chest and glanced at his wound.
Took out a bottle of medicine from the bag and applied it to the
wound.
The old man stood behind Audrey all the time and saw the medicine. he applied to Sterling, his eyes filled with astonishment. This girl, how can she have such good medicine at such a young age?
Audrey called two bodyguards and asked them to bring the car over.
The living environment here is not suitable for Sterling to recuperate.
After Audrey generously thanked him and gave the old man two bottles of hard-to-find trauma medicine, she left with Sterling. She had the bodyguard drive the car to the suburban villa.
It was isolated there, and no one would find it except for her family.
Sterling has not woken up yet and remains a prime suspect. If he returns to the city center, the police are likely to take him away! Audrey warned the two bodyguards not to report this matter to Danna. If Grandma finds out, who knows how worried she would be!
The two bodyguards used to often hear Danna talk about the young lady in the past. She was described as gentle, lovely, kind, unable to

carry heavy things, and weak to the point of being unable to lift her hands. However, after following her to provide protection for the past few days, they discovered that she was completely different
Did Danna have any misconceptions about weakness?
They witnessed a young lady who could run for countless hours in the jungle, climb down cliffs, even with her hands bleeding, without making a sound. If she fell, she would get back up. If she encountered poisonous insects or ants, she would crush them with one foot
Her appearance was completely inconsistent with her delicate and beautiful exterior.
However, such a young lady also earned their admiration!
“Don’t worry, Miss. We followed you as your subordinates and we won't tattle on you!”
After Sterling settled down. Audrey turned on the water in the bathroom and called Eden into the bedroom.
“You can wipe him off and give him a new pair of pants.” Audrey had already brought the bodyguard clean clothes.
When Eden was scrubbing Sterling. Audrey stood outside the door. pressing her slender fingers against her temples. her heart pounding violently and chaotically, only gradually calming down.
He was seriously injured, but fortunately, he is still alive!
As long as you live well. it’s good enough!
Audrey's mind was still a bit confused, unable to make sense of what had happened that night. Suddenly. Eden’s voice came from the
bedroom. “Sterling. Audrey asked me to help you clean up and change clothes!”

Audrey was taken aback.
Did Sterling wake up?
Audrey's tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed a bit.
Just as she was about to push the door open, it seemed like she remembered something. She raised her hand and knocked on the door.
Eden held a towel and opened the door. He complained with a face full of grievances, “I was just about to change Sterling’s underwear when he woke up and kicked me!”
Audrey thought of that scene and awkwardly coughed.
She dared not look into the bedroom and only whispered, “Sterling, let Eden help you change. It’s better if you don’t move for the next few days.”
The h 0a rse voice of the young boy came. “Let him go!”
Eden. “He might not want me to see, Audrey, why don’t you go?”
Audrey glared at Eden with a flushed face and said, “Shut up!”
Eden scratched his scalp and, under Audrey’s unwavering gaze that allowed no room for retreat, he had no choice but to go back in.
“Sterling, should | close my eyes?” We are both boys, what is there that | can’t see!
Sterling said. “If you dare to look, | will gouge your eyes out.”
Eden secretly breathed a sigh of relief. “...Alright. | still have the strength to gouge his eyes out. It seems like he won’t die!” TESS
Sterling woke up for a short while and then fell back asleep.
Waking up again, the sky gradually darkened.
There was still a touch of orange sunset glow lingering on the h or izon.
Sterling opened his deep black eyes and his gaze fell upon the girl sitting by the bed.
She moved a small sofa to the bedside, her slender body leaning against the back of the sofa, one foot pressed under the other leg, wearing a white nightgown, with long, smooth black hair draped over her shoulders, and her long and thick eyelashes hanging down as she read a book.
The light of the setting sun outside the window, along with the soft lighting in the room, made her small face appear calm and serene.
There was a feeling of tranquility in those days.
Audrey was about to turn the page when she suddenly realized something was wrong.
As | looked up. | met a pair of pitch-black, gloomy narrow eyes.
On his usually clean jaw, there was a faint stubble, and his handsome. face still lacked any color, appearing pale, haggard, and weak, which was heartbreaking.
But he still looked good, his face became more angular and hist features more distinct after losing some weight.
Audrey locked eyes with him for a few seconds. Her eyes welled up with a hint of red as she set down the book in her hand and looked at him with a bittersweet smile. “You're awake?”
