After she was done delegating tasks and watching the majority of the servants leave in tears, Jeslyn went to see Maverick in his study. 

"Plum, you said you'll have Rex send Valen home. Where is he? I want to see him." 

Maverick got up from his chair and took Jeslyn to one of the rooms on his floor where he warned her to not enter. 

Inside the room, Jeslyn was shocked to know that it was a laboratory. She saw Valen lying on a bed with tubes on him and his eyes closed. 

Her eyes started to sting when she saw her boy like this but she stubbornly held it in. She walked to him and sat beside the bed. Jeslyn held his small hand and slowly caressed it before turning to look at Maverick. 

"Who cleans him up?" 

"The nurses."

"Can I make it my job from now on? I want to be a part of his recovery. Who knows, he might wake up to yell at me for washing him the wrong way." Jeslyn smiled with tears in her eyes.
