Chapter 2060
Rosalynn awoke with a start.
She sat up, steadying her racing heartbeat. Glancing out the window, she noticed the first light of dawn beginning to creep over the horizon.
She had managed to squeeze in a thirty-minute nap, yet she felt more drained than before.
After freshening up and changing her clothes, Rosalynn left her office..
"Ms. Gabriella!" Mike greeted as he approached.
"Is he awake?" Rosalynn asked.
"Yes, for a while now. We knew you were resting in your office and didn't want to disturb you,' Mike replied, hesitating slightly at the end.
Rosalynn's expression remained neutral as she asked, "Is he chatting with his hallucination in his room again?"
"Yes."
Rosalynn gave a noncommittal hum in response before pushing open the door to Wayne's hospital room.
Wayne was out of bed, standing by the window, basking in the morning sun. Hearing the door open, he quickly turned around, a smile lighting up his face at the sight of Rosalynn. Rosalynn walked over, smiling and saying, "I got caught up in some work last night and didn't want to disturb your rest, so I stayed in my office."
"It's okay! Wayne said, taking Rosalynn's hand. "The kid left a while ago. Did you see him?"
Rosalynn shook her head gently. "No, I didn't."
"Must have missed him then, Wayne chuckled. "It's okay, he's decided not to contact his foster mother anymore. I think he'll be safe from now on." Rosalynn looked up at Wayne, then wrapped her arms around him, her hand gently stroking his thinning spine.
"That's good"
"Do you... do you not like him?" Wayne asked after a moment.
"No, that's not it," Rosalynn paused. "I'm just... I worry about you. Every time you see him, something happens."
Wayne planted a kiss on Rosalynn's forehead. "I'll be careful from now on. Once we return from the camping trip, I'll start the treatment with Penn, okay?"
"Okay," Rosalynn murmured in agreement.
After breakfast, Wayne's attending doctor came to check on his condition. Following Rosalynn's instructions, the doctor prescribed a series of medications. "Just to be safe, we'll administer one more round of antibiotics before discharging you."

Right on the dot at ten, the doctor came in with the medication.
Rosalynn sat by Wayne's side, watching the doctor prepare the injection. The doctor glanced at her, and upon seeing her nod, administered the medicine into Wayne's IV line following Penn's instructions.
"All done. You're free to go home, Mr. Silverman,' the doctor said, smiling. Wayne had already changed out of his hospital gown and was clearly eager to leave.
"Our kids are still at school. There's no rush to get home. Let's stay a bit longer for observation,' Rosalynn suggested with a grin.
"Yeah, President Silverman,' the doctor added. "A half-hour of observation won't hurt."
Wayne had no choice but to agree. During that half-hour, Wayne answered a few work-related calls, while Rosalynn stayed in touch with Penn, ensuring Wayne's condition was stable.
Fortunately, the side effects Penn had warned about, like drowsiness or nausea, did not manifest in Wayne.
Half an hour later, Wayne, who seemed to not want to spend a second longer in the hospital, practically dragged Rosalynn out the door.
As they were leaving the VIP ward, Wayne paused as if he had just remembered something. He looked around, spotting Mike, Felix, and even Calvin.
"Where's Ableson?" Wayne asked, turning to Rosalynn. "I haven't seen him around since I've been in the hospital."
In the past, whenever Wayne was hospitalized, Ableson would be there. It was strange that he hadn't shown up this time.
