Chapter 1722 Three days later, Renee woke up feeling like she was floating. "Stefan...

"You're finally awake!" Jovan shot to his feet in excitement beside her bed. He had been guarding Renee for three days. Renee was supposed to wake up two days ago after the surgery, but she had remained unconscious. The doctor had said that the consequences would be unimaginable if she did not wake up before dawn that day.
Jovan had assumed that this was one of Briar's schemes and had snapped at her, even threatening to kill her if anything happened to Renee. Fortunately, Renee had woken up in time.
"Where am I?" Renee was in a daze, and could feel bandages on her eyes. The area around her eyes was hurting too, but it was the odd pain that felt like... there was something there.

"Was this the reason you were so busy lately?" "Yeah!" Jovan shrugged helplessly. "I couldn't watch you live in the dark since I'd taken your eyes. If not, | wouldn't have ever had peace of mind." "I owed it to you, there was no need for you to feel guilty," Renee said casually. Surprisingly, she felt fine after learning that she had eye surgery. She didn’t look excited or eager, which confused Jovan.
"You never owed anything to me-it was Stefan who did." Jovan frowned and stared at Renee, who looked unmoved. He asked carefully, "Are you unhappy?" "No, I'm happy. Thank you very much,” Renee said sincerely.
She figured she would regain her eyesight one day because the people who loved her would not see her live in the dark forever. However, she had assumed it would be Stefan who would help her regain her eyesight. She had thought that the first person she'd see would be Stefan... but it turned out to be Jovan who had sacrificed a lot for her. Once her BEIT] x [ES removed, he would probably be the first thing she saw too.
"| told you that there's no need to thank me. Don't you know that it hurtswhen you do that?" Jovan choked out, feeling disappointed and frustrated. He thought that this would make Renee let him into her heart, but she was treating him like a stranger. ’I care about you and want to see you cured. I've always dreamed of it, and I'm happier than you now that I've achieved it. So, maybe | should be the one thanking you."
