Lynette then gently guided Bianca: “Come, dear. Your sister–in–law’s taking you home.”
Bianca had no strength left for words. She wanted only to leave. A silent nod was her answer.
Lynette was helping Bianca leave when she turned back to look at Blair Avery and added, “Blair, you’d better watch yourself.”
Hearing Lynette’s words, Blair suddenly felt his anger subside.
Seeing Bianca in this state, she probably wasn’t faring much better than Winnie.
Though concern lingered in his heart, the words remained stubbornly trapped in his throat.
Katelyn saw this and stomped her foot anxiously. “Young Master, Madam is in such a state! Shouldn’t you go after her?”
Instead of responding, Blair instructed, “Head back now. Remember to bring Winnie breakfast first thing tomorrow.”
At his words, Katelyn sighed helplessly before following them out.
Meanwhile, Lynette had just supported Bianca to the elevator when the doors slid open.
Elvin stepped out and immediately spotted Bianca swaying on her feet. Without a word, he strode forward and scooped her up in his arms.

Simultaneously, the adjacent elevator doors parted.
Diane Huffman’emerged just in time to witness Elvin lifting Bianca.
Stunned, Diane blurted out, “Mr. Elvin?”
Elvin ignored her, but the usually gentle Lynette snapped, “A good dog doesn’t block the path. Surely you don’t want to be one, Ms. Huffman?”
With that, Lynette pressed the elevator close button.
As the doors sealed, Diane sneered coldly, “Trampled slut.”
In the elevator, Lynette heard Diane’s curses.
She didn’t care, focusing entirely on Bianca instead.
Surviving the modeling industry required thick skin–she’d heard worse insults and met more vile people than Diane.
Elvin held Bianca, his heart pounding wildly. Seeing blood on her face, panic surged.
Bianca’s cheek rested against his chest, eyes shut.
“Bianca, stay awake. Please look at me–look at me, I’m begging you.”
He lowered his head, pressing his face to hers.
Fear choked him–what if those eyes never opened again?
This chance was everything; losing her wasn’t an option.
“Don’t sleep. I won’t be your lover anymore, won’t force marriage. Love Blair if you want–just get better. I’ll never pressure you again.”

His face buried in her neck, words dissolving into sobs.
Lynette watched, heart aching. She patted his shoulder gently. “Mr. Elvin, she’s not seriously hurt. Don’t panic.”
He didn’t hear her, quiet weeping filling the space.

When the elevator reached the lobby, Elvin rushed Bianca to the ER.
After examinations, doctors confirmed she’d wake up soon.
But Elvin kept pacing the ER hallway, a restless shadow.
Finally, a nurse announced, “Sir, your wife’s awake.”
He darted like an arrow into the room.
Bianca blinked, still dazed.
Elvin swept her into a crushing embrace before she could speak. His voice trembled with fear against her ear: “Bianca, promise you’ll never get sick again?
I’m scared–terrified.”
Tears streamed down his face, warming her skin.
Reality seeped back. She’d always doubted his affection–yet this raw terror felt real.
Would he cry like this without true love?
Bianca froze briefly. His quiet sobs continued. Softening, she patted his back. “Elvin, it’s just a cold. Not terminal. Please don’t cry.”
He held her tighter. “Bianca, I take it back. I still want to be your

lover.”
A laugh escaped her. “Elvin, I’m a woman. How can you be my ‘lover“?”
Hearing this, Elvin finally released her. He gazed intently into her eyes and said, “I’ll be your lover. I’ll shine your shoes, wash your underwear, warm your bed, cook your meals, serve your soup, pour your water- anything you want. As long as you let me be your lover, I’ll do whatever you ask.”
