She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor-Chapter 549: Returning to the Seclusion of the Mountains

Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Returning to the Seclusion of the Mountains

Hope Williams was wrapped in gentleness and indulgence, her smile becoming increasingly tender.

Soon, Alitzel Williams brought back porridge and some light pastries, "You must be starving, eat something quickly."

"Thank you, Mom."

Waylon Lewis took the items from Alitzel Williams’s hands, then opened the meal tray in front of Hope Williams.

Hope Williams was indeed hungry, her stomach growling.

Waylon Lewis, with his slender fingers, held the spoon and gently blew on the steaming porridge before handing it to Hope Williams, "Careful, it’s hot."

Hope Williams paused, seeing Alitzel Williams still there, felt a bit embarrassed to be fed by Waylon Lewis, "I can do it myself."

As she spoke, Hope Williams reached out to take the bowl and spoon from Waylon Lewis’s hands.

Waylon Lewis carefully pressed her hand down, insistently holding the bowl, and said seriously, "No, let me do it. You’re still injured; be careful not to strain your wound."

Alitzel Williams’s eyes smiled, and seizing the opportunity, she said, "You two stay here, I’ll go and check on the old man."

With that, Alitzel Williams left the hospital room and Waylon Lewis brought the spoon to Hope Williams’s mouth, "Eat quickly before it gets cold."

Hope Williams paused, then compromised and while eating, asked, "By the way, how did you know I was kidnapped yesterday and come over so quickly?"

At that time, Hope Williams was indeed somewhat scared because the location was desolate and hard to escape from, and Waylon Lewis was abroad.

"Elias Patel called me, saying you were being chased," Waylon’s face darkened as he mentioned this.

Hope Williams slightly raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised, "Then I owe Miss Patel. Once my injuries are better, I’ll personally thank Miss Patel."

"First, you need to rest well, and worry less about other matters."

Hope Williams pursed her lips, "But there’s still a lot of things Ansen has to handle..."

"Thinking about that now? Let Elias Patel help you for now," Waylon Lewis continued, "I will also watch over things for you. Your job is to focus on recovering."

Unable to withstand his assertive demands, Hope Williams could only nod in agreement.

From the doorway came two gentle knocks, and the bodyguard reported, "Boss, Miss Patel is here to see the madam."

Speak of the devil and he shall appear.

Waylon Lewis continued to feed Hope Williams the porridge unhurriedly, responding, "Come in."

Elias Patel entered with a poised and elegant smile, showing no trace of the frantic state from last night.

However, seeing Waylon Lewis tenderly and attentively feeding Hope Williams, Elias Patel’s expression faltered.

She could hardly believe it.

Waylon Lewis was actually feeding this woman porridge?

And doing so patiently, without a trace of impatience, continuing at an unhurried pace.

For a moment she doubted if the person before her was the same cold, aloof, and unattainable man she once knew.

Seeing Elias Patel standing there motionless, her expression also mirrored disbelief and astonishment.

Hope Williams swallowed the porridge in her mouth and greeted, "Miss Patel, please come in and sit."

Hope Williams reached out, trying to take the porridge bowl from Waylon Lewis to drink by herself, but failed to even touch the edge of the bowl.

Fortunately, the porridge was almost finished.

"Would you like more?"

"No need, I’m full."

Waylon Lewis took a tissue and handed it to Hope Williams, his care was meticulous.

Elias Patel, holding a large bouquet of flowers, had her emotions perfectly composed.

"Boss, madam."

Elias Patel, as usual, respectfully and graciously placed the bouquet in his hand on the table beside Hope Williams’s bed.

"Not knowing what madam likes, I bought some flowers casually. I hope madam doesn’t mind."

Hope Williams nodded slightly and said softly, "Miss Patel is very kind."

Elias tugged at his lips and asked, "Madam, how is your injury now?"

"Much better."

"That’s good, then I am relieved."

"You must have been quite startled at the time. Those people were targeting me, and I accidentally dragged you into it, I’m sorry," said Hope Williams gently. freewēbnoveℓ.com

"At that time you helped me call Waylon, so Waylon could find me so quickly, thank you."

"Madam, you speak too highly of me."

Elias moved his eyebrows slightly, following up on the conversation, "But madam, why did they want to kill you? Those seemed like people from the underworld, does madam have any associations with these people? Otherwise, why would they target you?"

The fact that these people were trying to assassinate her suggested she was not a harmless person, otherwise, she wouldn’t have provoked them.

Thinking this way, Elias felt somewhat angry inside.

He really didn’t understand why Waylon Lewis would keep such a woman by his side, just for her beauty?

Elias posed several questions, his peripheral vision covertly gauging Waylon Lewis’s expression.

Hope Williams slightly raised her eyebrows, responding to these questions with a light smile, "Some private matters, I’d rather not discuss more with Miss Patel."

Elias smiled and nodded, "I was being nosy. I just think it’s quite dangerous around madam, please be more careful when you go out next time. It was good that I was there this time, but if it were Mrs. Lewis or the old master in the car next time, it would be very dangerous for them."

Hope Williams raised her eyebrows and looked at Elias, whose gaze was uncontrollably shifting towards Waylon Lewis.

Her words were filled with concern, as if these few sentences were just out of sheer worry.

However, Hope Williams still understood the underlying meaning of her words.

In simple terms, being with someone like her who had provoked people from the underworld was very dangerous, and it could also bring harm to her family.

This was a reminder to Waylon Lewis.

Hope Williams delicately raised her eyebrows, nodded, her face bearing a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, agreeing with Miss Patel’s words, "The issue has been resolved, but Miss Patel is right. Waylon, once I recover, take me to the mountains."

Waylon Lewis frowned, "For what?"

"To retreat from the world."

Waylon Lewis’s expression darkened.

Hope Williams sighed, "So as not to bring harm to others."

"Stop joking."

Waylon Lewis’s expression grew stern, "If you retreat to the mountains, what about me and the children? You want to leave us behind?"

Waylon Lewis’s tone carried a deep grievance.

Hearing his tone, Hope Williams smiled helplessly, "How could I bear to leave you guys."

Hearing Hope Williams say this, Elias was slightly taken aback and quickly said, "Madam, I didn’t mean to say you bring harm to others."

"I didn’t say you did."

Elias bit his lower lip, his expression subtly stiffened and his hand hanging by his side unconsciously tightened.

Hope Williams continued calmly, "Thank you for your concern, Miss Patel, I have taken note of it, thank you."

Elias’s face stiffened into a smile.

Hope Williams, "Miss Patel, don’t just stand, please have a seat."
