Chapter 274. The Patient Is Awake

Ellie's POV

"God, please wake this man up already."  I hum as I jerk my head from Damian's shoulder.

I spent the second night yet in here, and still, he is in this distressing, deep slumber. Honestly, I am getting furious at him. Why doesn't he want to wake up? Doesn't he know how much it's stinging me to see him like this?

"Wake up already, love, will you? I miss you. This world doesn't seem like a good place for me without you by my side. Please, wake up." I whisper, pecking his lips.

I turn away from him, scouring for some wipes from my purse and wiping off the eyelogs. Before I turn back to him, a call from my lawyer distracts me.

"Hello, attorney," I greet, taking a few strides away from the bed.

"Hello, Ellie! How are you?" He greets her back.

"I am fine, attorney," I respond.

"I just called to let you know that I reviewed the case that you assigned to me, and I think we have several contending grounds."
