My Brother Became a Vegetable To Save Me Novel by NANCY ROWSE

“Aimee, is something wrong?”

Hearing Elio’s voice, I looked up into his eyes, and they were the same as always–no concern, no comfort, and certainly no love.

I gathered my composure and said to him, “Elio, I’m in the end stage of heart failure. I need a heart transplant to survive!”

Elio paused, then, frowning, replied, “Okay.”

Seeing him return to his usual impassive demeanor, the bitterness in my heart was unspoken. I wasn’t sure if Elio understood me, and even if he did, he was so busy he might forget.

Feeling disheartened, I decided to find a suitable heart on my own.

Elio had a stomach condition, so I fired the cook and decided to prepare meals at home. to help him manage his diet.

I prepared dinner and messaged Elio to see if he wanted to come home for a meal. After waiting for a long time without a response, I decided to save him a portion.

At that moment, a wave of dizziness swept over me. The plate slipped from my hand, crashing to the floor as I collapsed in the kitchen.

Fortunately, the butler discovered me in time.

When I woke up, my face was pale and bloodless. The doctor, seeing me awake, said, “You’re fine now. Rest well, and you’ll be able to leave the hospital soon.”Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

I quickly thanked the doctor, as I was starving from not eating for so long.

I dragged my weak body towards the hospital exit. As I approached a room, I thought I heard Elio’s voice and unconsciously stopped, leaning against the wall.

“Eli, I’m okay! Just a scratch, nothing serious. I can be discharged,” a woman’s playful voice came from the room.

Hesitant, I wasn’t sure if it was Elio inside the room.

“Sammy, let me see. Does it still hurt?” Elio’s concerned tone shattered my composure. I propped myself up and quietly peeked through the door, and what I saw made me lose my breath.

It was unmistakably Elio. I knew his silhouette too well; just one glance, and I could recognize it instantly. The concern, sorrow, tenderness, and affection in Elio’s eyes were things I had never witnessed before.

It seemed that someone could freely act spoiled around Elio, making him care, worry, and show concern.

I had spent so long with him that I thought he might have fallen for me, but today’s scene shattered that illusion completely.
