Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 680 Your Mission Is Over

The moment Elspeth pushed the door open and walked out, Yelena immediately jumped up from her chair.

The moment Elspeth pushed the door open and walked out, Yelena immediately jumped up from her chair.

"Elspeth, how is he now? Is he okay? Is his condition severe? Can it be cured?"

Elspeth looked at her anxious and restless appearance and sighed deliberately. "Well, it's hard to say..."

Tears welled up in Yelena's eyes. "Really? Does that mean he can't be cured?"

Unexpectedly, this little girl had quite developed tear ducts. She could cry at the drop of a hat.

Elspeth felt reluctant to deceive her any further.

"I haven't said anything yet, but you're already imagining the worst," Elspeth uttered. "All right, all right. I won't

tease you anymore. His condition is currently stable. I'll discuss with my mentor this afternoon on his treatment

plan. Don't worry. I'll do my best to bring your beloved back from the brink of death."

Her beloved...

What a strange term of endearment.

Fortunately, Elspeth had already promised to do her best to cure Hank, so Yelena had nothing more to say. She

could only nod and thank Elspeth.

"Don't just thank me. Go in and comfort him, and try to instill in him the will to survive. That way, the chances of

success will be greater."

Yelena mentally noted down what Elspeth said.

After Elspeth and Wesley left, Yelena went into the ward.

After seeing Hank sitting weakly and looking haggard, Yelena suppressed the bitterness in her heart and put on a

smile.

"Hank, are you feeling better now?"

Hank knew that he was in a very weak state right after the surgery and his complexion was pale. He turned his

head away and didn't look at her.

"I'm all right."

Yelena thought he was still avoiding her subconsciously after seeing his reaction and felt a bit aggrieved. "Why are

you still unwilling to face me now?"

Hank found himself momentarily at a loss for how to answer when he heard her question.

He couldn't possibly say that he was afraid she would find him ugly in his current state.

"I'm not unwilling to face you. You're overthinking things."

He tried to make his voice sound calm and less weak.

"Although I don't know what you still care about at this point, I want to tell you that no matter what happens to you,

I will always be by your side."

She spoke seriously, and if one looked closely, one could even see a determined light in her eyes.

Hank had never felt that his decision was wrong before, but at this moment, he suddenly felt that he might have

made mistakes all along.

It seemed that he had underestimated how much Yelena cared about him.

He turned his head and looked directly at her face.

Yelena didn't expect that the usually indifferent, or even cold man would now have a hint of tears in his eyes.

This made Yelena panic a little. "What's wrong? Is it because you're in too much pain?"

Instinctively, she thought it was because he had just undergone surgery, and his body was uncomfortable and in

great pain, which made him cry.

"I've had surgery before too, and once the anesthesia wears off, it can be quite painful. Just bear with it."

Hank shook his head. "Elspeth gave me acupuncture just now, so it doesn't hurt as much anymore."

"Why were you crying then?"

Hank looked at her with a gaze filled with tenderness. "Because I miss you."

All the grievances Yelena had accumulated for a long time were released at that moment.

She slowly approached him and squatted by his bedside.

She took his hand and placed it against her face while her voice carried an indescribable sadness. "Promise me you

won't chase me away anymore, okay?"

"Okay."

Upon hearing this, Yelena smiled through her tears. "All right. It's a deal. You're not allowed to lie to me."

Hank ruffled her hair. "I won't lie to you, but would you dislike me?"

"Why would I dislike you?"

Yelena was a bit confused by his question and took a while to react. Then, anger appeared on her face.

"If I were to dislike you now, would I have to divorce you and find another old man when you're old, toothless, and

ugly?"

Although her words were serious, they also carried a hint of childishness. Hank couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"What if I don't live to be old and toothless?"

"Hank! I'm being serious with you. Can you stop joking?"

Even in this situation, he still had the mind to joke around. It seemed like he was perfectly fine.

Yelena rolled her eyes and swatted away the hand he had placed on top of her head.

"All right, all right. Stop being angry. I won't joke around anymore."

She glared at him. "I have to go to the set in a while, so I can't stay with you for long."

After saying that, she suddenly asked, "What if I cancel this drama and come to accompany you?"

Since the end of the pandemic, she had gradually resumed work.

Once she returned to the set, she would have less time to be with him.

However, Hank mercilessly rejected the proposal. "Absolutely not."

"But I want to spend more time with you..." Yelena lowered her head as she felt a bit reluctant.

His condition had worsened, and she couldn't help but worry about him.

"It's all right. I can manage on my own. You should go and focus on your work."

Hank knew how much Yelena loved her job, so he wouldn't allow her to cancel her filming just to accompany him.

"How about this? I'll send you a video every day to put your mind at ease."

Yelena felt somewhat reassured upon hearing this.

As she was leaving, she suddenly turned around and asked pitifully, "What's our relationship now?"

Upon seeing her look so pitiful like a little kitten, Hank beckoned her closer with a wave of his hand.

When she leaned closer, he placed a kiss on her forehead.

"You're my little girl."

Forever.

Yelena tilted her head up and boldly launched a counterattack by kissing his lips.

Hank may be physically weak, but he exerted a lot of force during the kiss.

She almost thought he was pretending to be sick.

Just as the two of them were caught up in the kiss and reluctant to part, the door of the ward suddenly swung open.

"You two are..."

Yelena looked up and found that the person standing in front of her was Camilla.

A hint of disbelief flashed in Camilla's eyes. "Have the two of you reconciled?"

Although Yelena knew that this first love was fake, she was still nervous and at a loss when Camilla suddenly

appeared.

Hank squeezed Yelena's hand which indicated that she shouldn't worry.

"Camilla, your mission is over. I'll transfer the money to your account, so you can leave."

Camilla's face instantly turned pale.
