Chapter 2840: Chapter 2849: Only Able to Sleep Beside Her
"I donât feel at ease," Sydney Sullivan meant she wanted to stay too.
Adam Sinclair reminded her, "Dad has probably seen todayâs news. Heâll likely have a lot to say to me tonight. Plus, that mother and son wonât miss this opportunity. I need you to help block them for me at home; I donât have time to deal with them right now."
Sydney thought about Benjamin Sinclair and the mother and son he kept outside, her elegant face showing a mocking expression. She took a deep breath and didnât insist on staying, "Alright, Iâll head back tonight. If anything happens to Olivia, remember to call me. Donât worry, with me here, your dad and that mother-child duo canât stir up trouble. If they really dare to cause a scene now, donât blame me for turning against your dad. Itâs been so many years, I just didnât bother to deal with her, but she really thinks that by pretending in front of Benjamin sheâs scaring me. Haha."
The gap in status is like a galaxy between them.
Had Benjamin Sinclair been her son or like Young Master Lawrence, perhaps the difference in status wouldnât matter. But for a man like Benjamin, her status difference with that woman doomed the other woman to be daydreaming!
Sydney picked up her bag from the sofa. Although she never really paid attention to that mother and son, the mention of them still made her uncomfortable, "Iâll head back now; Iâll leave this place to you."
"Alright."
She warmly greeted Sunny nearby, "Where is the manager planning to go later? Letâs go together; Iâll ask the driver to give you a ride."
"This..." Sunny felt a bit flattered, as Sydneyâs status in the entertainment industry was undoubtedly that of an unreachable Madam.
Sydney seemed to notice her discomfort, her expression softening as she smiled, "I enjoyed chatting with you earlier. Iâd like to hear more about Oliviaâs early days in the entertainment industry. If you donât mind, we can chat as we walk."
Earlier, Sunny had been chatting with her about Olivia Lewisâs early antics in the entertainment industry as a rookie.
Sunny was also a strong woman type, and after exchanging pleasantries with Sydney, seeing her genuine invitation, she no longer hesitated. She picked up her bag, greeted Adam Sinclair, and walked out with Sydney Sullivan.
In the hospital room, only Adam Sinclair and the sleeping Olivia Lewis remained.
Adam stood up and walked to the bedside; his temples were pounding, likely due to the medication in the wine earlier.
He stood by the bed for a while, then went to the bathroom to bathe.
He washed himself thoroughly over a dozen times before coming out in new pajamas, heading straight to the large hospital bed, carefully lying beside the sleeping person and inhaling her natural fragrance, slowly closing his eyes.
He was too exhausted today; he feared he wouldnât last until she woke if he didnât rest.
He would investigate the matter thoroughly, but before then, he just needed to sleep a bit; too much had happened today to make sense of. Without her by his side, he feared insomnia.
The moonlight quietly streamed in, and a small bird on the treetop was preening its feathers. The night was peaceful, and the hospital roomâs atmosphere was warmly flowing.
Everything was just right.
So right that it seemed no third person could fit in.
