Chapter 421 The Scene She Saw 

After a long time, Anika finally lifted her head. 

She wiped away the tears from her face and looked at Sterling with red eyes, “Little Sterling has grown up.” 

Sterling sat down on the edge of the bed and patted Anika’s slightly trembling shoulder, “Don’t be afraid anymore.” 

Anika nodded. 

She lifted her gaze and, for the first time since they met four years ago, carefully examined Sterling. 

With distinct contours, profound handsome features, and a resolute and firm jawline, the previously slender young boy has grown into the appearance of a man. 

Anika looked at his changes, and her eyes became slightly red. 

“How can I always cry in front of my younger brother? I’ll go to the bathroom to wash my face.” 

Sterling helped Anika down from the hospital bed. 

The VIP ward had a private bathroom, and Anika walked towards it. 

I don’t know if I cried too much, but halfway through, everything suddenly went black in front of my eyes. 

The slender b*dy swayed unsteadily and almost fell to the ground. 

Sterling immediately stepped forward and timely supported her frail 

arm.

Chapter 421 The Scene She Saw 

“Anika, what happened to you?” 

Anika closed her eyes and slowly opened them, only to find that it was. still pitch black in front of her. A hint of panic appeared on her pale face as she asked, “Sterling, why can’t I see?” 

Upon hearing this, Sterling furrowed his brows and helped Anika back onto the hospital bed. 

“The doctor said you had a cerebral hemorrhage, which could result in temporary blindness. Once the hemorrhage dissipates, your vision will be restored.” 

Anika grabbed onto Sterling’s collar with both hands, her tightly pursed l*ps trembling, “Will I never see you again in the future?” 

“No, the doctor said it’s temporary,” Sterling patted Anika’s slender back. “Medical technology is advanced now, there’s no need to be afraid.” 

Anika slowly closed her eyes and leaned her head, feeling somewhat helpless, against Sterling’s shoulder.

These days, Audrey went to work at the AL Company that she and Leonard opened. 

The traffic of short videos has been getting better and better. After the New Year, she and Leonard plan to hold an internet celebrity summit event. These days, she has been working on the plan and attending meetings. 

After being busy for a while, she only realized later that Sterling hadn’t been in touch with her recently. 

She could understand, after all, he had to manage such a large group 

like the Howard Group. With her and Leonard’s small company, she was always busy and had no time, let alone the person in charge of the Howard Group. 

Thinking about Anika in the hospital, Audrey went home and made some vegetarian dishes and snacks, mentioning the hospital. 

Last time, Audrey quickly found Ward 602. 

I looked inside through the window. 

At that moment, it made her b*dy freeze for a second. 

Sterling sat on the edge of the bed, with–Anika leaning against his shoulder, as he gently patted her back. 

Audrey had a moment of blankness in her mind. 

The little hand holding the insulated lunchbox suddenly tightened and exerted more force. 

Taking a few deep breaths, she forced herself to calm down. 

Anika was just a familiar presence to him, she couldn’t think too much or let her thoughts wander! 

Audrey closed her eyes and looked into the ward again. 

She found that there was still a distance between the two of them. Every time Sterling hugged her, he wished he could squeeze her into his flesh and blood, but when he let Anika lean on his shoulder, their bodies didn’t press tightly against each other, deliberately keeping a distance. 

She could feel that he really only regarded Anika as a family member. 

However, Audrey still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. 

Chapter 421 The Scene She Saw 

She tightly pursed her l*ps and stared blankly at the two people in the ward. From her perspective, she could only see Sterling’s profile, with his features tense and his thin l*ps pressed into a straight line. 

His expression appeared extremely guilty and remorseful. 

Audrey didn’t knock on the door to disturb them. She turned around and left the ward.

Audrey returned home, pulled the curtains shut, and fell into a deep sleep. 

She was awakened by a burst of cellphone ringing. 

Audrey glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Sterling calling. 

Stared at the phone for a long time, but there was no answer. 

Until he made the second call. 

Audrey pressed the answer button. 

“Audra, do you have time tonight? Let’s have dinner together. I will be going on a business trip to S city later and it will probably take three to four days for me to come back.” 

Audrey, with her small hand not holding a phone, was combing through her disheveled long hair. Her voice, still hoarse from just waking up, said, “I’ve been busy with work lately, and with school starting soon, I’m a bit overwhelmed. Let’s have dinner together when you come back from your business trip!” 

The man on the other end of the phone fell silent for a moment and let out a low “uh–huh“. 

Chapter 

After ending the call, Audrey leaned against the headboard, feeling a slight tightness in her heart. 

If it were in the past, he wouldn’t have sought her opinion and would have directly come to her, forcefully and dominantly pulling her out to have a meal together. 

Recently, his thoughts were all on Anika. 

She understood him. 

But as a girlfriend, being ignored, I wouldn’t feel good about it either. 

Audrey shook her head and couldn’t be bothered to think too much. 

Audrey came out of the room and happened to see Hannah coming back angrily. 

“Hannah, what happened to you?” 

Hannah placed the bag on the sofa, opened her phone, and said, “That Mr. Goodwin, just returned from a business trip, couldn’t wait to meet his lover, and got caught!” 

“In fact, I had no objection to him finding a lover, but why Camille?” 

Hannah stood with one hand on her hip, looking extremely angry. It wasn’t because she was upset about Shawn finding a lover, after all, she had no feelings for him. 

She was angry that he had found a lover, and it was Camille! 

She was not in sync with Camille. Camille took advantage of her backing and repeatedly suppressed her, snatching her resources. 

Well, it turns out that Camille’s backer was actually her flash–married husband! 

Chapter 421 The Scene She Saw 

Audrey took the phone handed to her by Hannah, and the screen displayed a screenshot. 

The photo was actually taken unclearly, but Camille was a celebrity in the entertainment industry. Her dressing style was well–known to both fans and gossip reporters. 

Although the photo was not clear, it captured a side profile of Camille and the silhouette of a man. 

Camille held onto the man’s arm, tilting her face upwards and looking at him with a smile on her face. The man walked forward without glancing sideways, exuding an air of nobility and aloofness. 

“Do you know how fast he retracted the news? It was barely five minutes after it came out, and it couldn’t be found anywhere on the internet.” 

“Fortunately, my assistant took a screenshot for me.” 

Hannah was so angry that she was about to explode. 

Whoever he could have chosen, he insisted on choosing Camille! 

If you found Camille, why didn’t you marry her? 

“Audra, what does he really want by marrying me? I always feel like he hates me deep down, otherwise, why would he choose my archenemy to be his lover and still want to marry me?” 

Audrey looked at the man’s back in the screenshot, and indeed, he looked like Shawn. 

However, without seeing the front, it cannot be 100% confirmed that it was him. 

“Did he not look for you after he came back from his business trip?” 

Hannah pursed her l*ps and said, “I have looked for him, but I have had night performances these past two days, so when he tried to reach me, I didn’t have time to respond to him.” 

“I think you should go and ask him to clarify. If he really is financially supporting Camille, we can’t just let this slide!”
