Married At First Sight Chapter 4079 

Chapter 4079 

The night passed in silence. 

Evan woke up the next morning, roused by an uncomfortable heat. The ward’s heater was on, and he’d bundled up tightly before falling asleep. Sometime during the night, he began sweating, but his exhaustion kept him from waking. By morning, the heat became unbearable, and he stirred. 

“Abby…” 

He instinctively called her name. His voice, still hoarse, sounded much better than the day before. 

The lack of a response reminded him that Abby had gone home the previous night. He was alone in the hospital. 

In the middle of the night, his mother had called, her cheerful voice a small comfort. Yet, the reality of being sick and alone in a foreign place left Evan feeling homesick. 

He thought about Wildridge Manor. Back home, it was always lively when his brothers returned. The old, mischievous grandma doted on them, and despite his parents’ sarcastic remarks, they cared deeply for their children. The warmth and familiarity of home stood in stark contrast to the solitude of his current surroundings. 

Evan reached for a box of tissues on the bedside table and used several to wipe the sweat from his forehead and neck. He sat up, pulling the quilt off, his body still warm from the night’s sweating. 

The fever had broken. 

Thanks to the numerous bottles of liquid medicine he’d received the day before and a restful night, his sore throat had eased significantly. He felt hopeful—one more day of treatment and proper rest, and he’d likely be discharged tomorrow. 

Tomorrow was Saturday. 

“That’s great news,” Abby said. “I’ll arrange for someone to bring you breakfast.” 

She’d just woken up and was heading out for her morning run when she thought to call and check on him. 

Evan hesitated before softly asking, “Abby, could you bring me breakfast yourself?” There was a brief pause. 

“I’m really busy,” Abby responded. “I lost an entire day yesterday because of you, and now I’m swamped. I need to work overtime to catch up. Even the day you live-streamed eating chili peppers, my eldest sister tried to discuss something important with me, but we never got the chance.” 

Abby had spent all of yesterday taking care of Evan—rushing him to the hospital, staying by his side during his fever, and making sure he was okay. She had neglected her work, and now the unfinished tasks were piling up. 

Evan’s voice dropped to a whisper. “You could bring me breakfast and then head to work. It wouldn’t take long. I just… I just want to see you.”
