Bianca studied his earnest expression, brows furrowing in suspicion.
Yet she couldn’t decipher him. Couldn’t understand him at all.
Finally, Bianca Watts looked away and fixed her gaze back on the ceiling.
Just then, Elvin’s phone rang.
The hospital room was quiet, and Bianca could hear a man’s voice on the other end: “Mr. He, I’ve brought the items. Should I bring them up?”
Elvin replied, “Mm.”
The man asked, “Which room?”
“Call when you arrive. I’ll come out to get it.”
After this brief exchange, Elvin hung up.
Soon after, his phone rang again.
He stood and left the room, returning within a couple of minutes.
He carried a bag holding an insulated food container.
Bianca knew Elvin had arranged for the meal.
He unpacked small containers filled with generous portions–meat broth, vegetables, Taco, bread, and several large shrimp.

Elvin propped a pillow against the bed rail, helped Bianca lean against it, then began feeding her slowly from a small bowl.
Starving, Bianca didn’t resist his help.
The food suited her taste perfectly; she ate with relish and contentment.
Halfway through, Elvin finally asked, “Good?“.
Bianca nodded sincerely. “Mm, delicious.
Peeling a shrimp with deliberate care, Elvin lifted an eyebrow casually. “Since you enjoy it so much, come to my home sometime. I’ll have Mom prepare even more for you.”
Bianca choked on the shrimp in her mouth, coughing violently until her face flushed crimson and tears welled in her eyes.
Seeing her distress, Elvin immediately set down the shrimp, grabbed a water cup, and held it to her lips. As she drank, he murmured, “Tonight’s dishes were all specially prepared by my mother.”
After sipping water, Bianca felt better but remained silent, turning to study Elvin’s face.
Noticing her quietness, he smiled. “Cat got your tongue?”
Bianca swallowed hard. “You know Blair Avery and I aren’t divorced. You know I’ve borne a child. Elvin, why push me to my doom?”
Frowning, Elvin met her gaze. “I’ve already discussed everything with my family. No one can stop me from marrying whom I choose. They can either bless us or vanish from my life forever.” He paused. “My mother isn’t Sandra Porter. I’m not Blair Avery.”
His words left Bianca momentarily stunned.

There was a time she’d wished Blair would speak like this.
But she wasn’t that Bianca anymore.
Elvin’s sweet talk couldn’t deceive her now.
Turning fully toward him, she spoke with grave clarity: “What do you want from me? Just say it directly. If it’s within my power to give, you’ll have it. But if it’s beyond me, don’t waste your time.‘
Elvin stared back, her face was cold.
After a few seconds of silence, Elvin finally spoke: “What I want… are you really willing to give it to me?”
Bianca Watts caught something more in his words. She didn’t respond, choosing silence instead.
Seeing her retreat into quiet, Elvin handed her a peeled shrimp. “My mom prepared a lot for you. When you’re free, I’d like to take you to meet her. Trust me, she’s a very nice person.”
He paused, letting the next words hang heavy, “So am I.”
Bianca sensed Elvin genuinely wanted to prove he was fine.
But she didn’t know how to respond, so she chose silence.
Elvin didn’t push her. He knew she still couldn’t trust others, and that she was still sick. He shouldn’t say things that troubled her.
So he didn’t say anything more.
After feeding Bianca, Elvin poured her hot water and made sure she drank it.
