Grandma York said, “Abby, please take care of Evan. Once he’s feeling better, just send me a message to let me know he’s okay.”
Confident in Abby’s ability to manage the situation, Grandma York prepared to hang up the phone. However, Abby quickly interjected, “Grandma York, wait! Don’t hang up just yet. Are you in Wiltspoon?”
“If it’s convenient, could Evan’s parents come to look after him? I still have to work and can’t be at the hospital all the time.”
Grandma York responded, “Evan’s father is home, but he’s completely clueless when it comes to caring for others. If I leave Evan with him, I worry he’ll only get worse.”
“My daughters-in-law and I are visiting the Johnson family in Annenburg. We just arrived and won’t return until Serenity is close to giving birth. We don’t have the time to care for Evan.”
She added dismissively, “Abby, if you’re too busy, just go to work after his fever goes down. Don’t worry about him. He’s an adult; he can take care of himself. It’s just a bad cold. Once his fever breaks, he’ll be fine.”
It was clear that Grandma York had no intention of arranging additional help for Evan. In her mind, this was the perfect opportunity for him to employ his self-pity tactic.
But this time, it wasn’t a tactic—Evan was truly unwell.
“Abby, that’s all for now. I’ll hang up. After Serenity gives birth, I’ll come to see you. We should work on strengthening the bond between grandmother and granddaughter. I’ve always had high hopes for you—I really like you.”
Before Abby could respond, Grandma York hung up.
Frustrated, Abby muttered, “Hanging up so quickly… Are you afraid I’ll crawl through the radio waves? I wanted to ask when Sister Seren is due, but you didn’t even give me a chance.”

“me a
chance.”
Abby sighed, still confused about why Grandma York liked her so much. How did she even
notice her? Abby had always concealed her identity. Not even her parents knew her nickname, Changeable Fox; yet Grandma York had seen through it and deemed her a suitable match for Evan.
Abby glanced at Evan, who was lying uncomfortably. She perched on the edge of the bed and gave his face a gentle pinch.
“You ignored your grandmother’s advice, and now you’re facing the consequences. Her judgment is spot-on, but you didn’t believe her. Look where that’s landed you—lying here like this. I’ll deal with you once you’re better.”
Despite her sharp words, Abby’s actions revealed her concern. She reached out to check Evan’s forehead. His fever appeared to have decreased; his skin felt cooler, and he had started to sweat. She wiped the thin layer of perspiration away with her hand before grabbing a tissue to clean him up further.
Sweating was a good sign—it indicated his fever was breaking.
Evan remained asleep, his breathing now more stable. Abby noted that the IV drip still had about half a bottle left, estimating it would need to be replaced in another half hour.
She stood up, walked out to the small lounge, and sat down to check the news on her phone.
Just then, her phone rang.
It was her mother calling.
Abby answered, “Hi, Mom.”
“Abby, how’s Evan?” Mrs. Du asked. She had taken Evan to the hospital after learning that Abby had stopped him from eating chili peppers and had been anxious ever since.
Mrs. Du felt compelled to call and check in, especially since Abby hadn’t returned to work, and the day was nearly over.
Despite her earlier frustration with Evan for his treatment of Abby, Mrs. Du recognized his redeeming qualities. As Abby had pointed out, at least Evan had never juggled.

multiple girlfriends. Once he understood his feelings, he confessed to her and didn’t lead her on. Evan’s character was adequate, and Abby had her own secrets. She had concealed much from Evan, and even now, he lacked concrete evidence that she was the Changeable Fox he had fallen for. It wasn’t until Serenity hinted at Abby’s true identity that Evan began to connect the dots. After seeking confirmation from Grandma York, he received a response that was vague enough to keep him guessing but hopeful enough to encourage his persistence. Now, Evan was determined to win Abby over, no matter how long it took.
