Chapitre 71: A Good Show

Ashleigh woke just as Granger came back into the room.

“Granger? Are you ok? Where did you go?” she asked as she quickly got up and rushed to him.

Granger opened his arms to her, hugging her tightly.

“Your dad stopped by. I didn’t want to wake you, so we chatted in the hallway.”

“Granger, you’re the patient, not me! You should have stayed in bed. What if you got dizzy again?”

“I’m fine, Ash,” he smiled, happy to hear the concern in her voice.

Ashleigh pulled back and looked him up and down. Thankfully, the bruises were already starting to fade.

“Well, you do look better than you did earlier, and you seem to have more energy.”

“Benefits of our fast healing nature,” Granger winked.

Ashleigh smiled back, though she found it curious how fast he was healing. He seemed barely able to lift his head earlier. Now the only sign there was something wrong was the bruising.
