The following morning, Charles quietly slipped out of the hospital.
He had called Mr. Wales the previous night to share the good news about Augustine waking up, and Mr. Wales had instructed him to leave early—before Mrs. Wales arrived—knowing she wouldn't take kindly to seeing Charles there.
Currently, as Charles hailed a cab, he headed straight to the mansion building where he spent the entire day waiting for Augustine.
Besides, today was Charles's off day at Gyapm Corporation, and likewise the restaurant he works in.
As Charles waited for Augustine, he prepared some nice meals and placed them in the refrigerator.
Once the time reached half past six in the evening, Charles settled onto the couch in the sitting room, patiently waiting.
Before he realized what was happening, he drifted off to sleep.

Meanwhile, Augustine was cornered by his overprotective parents in the hospital room, both standing guard like prison wardens.
