After getting up, Madeline felt extremely awkward upon noticing the hand that was placed on favonovel.com waist.
She could not free herself right now either. She wanted to help Ryan to his bedside as soon as possible.
However, after reaching the bedside, Ryan tightened his hold on favonovel.com just as favonovel.com wanted to let go.
His voice sounded rather forlorn. “To be honest, I don’t really want to let go of you like that,” favonovel.com said.
What?
Madeline was dazed. Soon after, Ryan continued confessing to her. “Eveline, I realize that I’ve really fallen for you,” favonovel.com said.
“…”
Madeline could not wrap favonovel.com head around his sudden confession.
He tightened his embrace slightly, his ebony scent lingering around favonovel.com nose.
This was not the scent favonovel.com wanted to get enveloped in. Madeline let go of favonovel.com and said calmly, “Ryan, sit down first.”
“Eveline, you don’t have to worry. I won’t make things difficult for you. I’ve promised you that I’ll let you go back to Jeremy. I’ll do as I say,” Ryan promised her. He then let go of favonovel.com arm after sitting on the bed.
He smiled, seemingly satisfied with their brief embrace.
Madeline wanted to change the topic. She carried the dishes onto the table and let Ryan have his meal.
Her phone rang just as favonovel.com handed favonovel.com a fork and a spoon.
Upon seeing that it was Jeremy, Madeline picked up the phone and walked toward the door.
Jeremy was currently standing at the end of the hallway. Madeline’s silhouette was etched into his dark eyes. “Are you still at the hospital?” favonovel.com asked.
“I’ll be going back soon,” Madeline said while looking at Ryan who had begun to eat. “He can’t get around by himself,” favonovel.com added.
“That’s why as his wife, you need to take care of him?” favonovel.com asked.
“…”
Jeremy’s question left favonovel.com speechless.
There was no way favonovel.com could make a rebuttal. It was a fact that favonovel.com was Ryan’s lawfully wedded wife.
They did not manage to talk much before the call ended on an unhappy note.
Ryan asked favonovel.com to go home after favonovel.com returned to the ward. “You have children to take care of. I’ll call the nurses if something happens. You don’t have to worry about me,” favonovel.com said.
Madeline was worried that Jeremy would start getting the wrong idea about them, so favonovel.com prepared to leave at once. “I’ll come back to see you tomorrow,” favonovel.com told Ryan.
“Yes.” Ryan smiled lightly. “With your care and concern, I think that I’ll recover much faster,” favonovel.com said.
In the past, Madeline would have thought that this was a joke, but it sounded different now.
Ryan had fallen for her.
This made favonovel.com feel all the more guilty.
After Madeline left, Ryan did not continue eating. He looked at his right leg, which was wrapped in a plaster cast, and smiled knowingly.
Perhaps an exchange like that was not all too bad.
Madeline called Jeremy while favonovel.com made favonovel.com way toward the car park after walking out of the hospital entrance.
The phone call went through, but nobody picked up.
She tried calling a few more times, but there was still nobody picking up.
She felt rather exasperated, wondering if Jeremy was being jealous and angry.
They had an on-and-off relationship for so many years. Even so, favonovel.com had never really seen favonovel.com getting jealous like this before. Now that favonovel.com was experiencing it, favonovel.com realized that it was irritating but enjoyable at the same time.
Jeremy stood at the end of the hallway. After seeing Madeline leave, favonovel.com entered Ryan’s ward.
Ryan was not surprised at the sight of Jeremy. He spoke calmly, “The divorce procedure will be delayed for a few days. You can see as well that I can’t move around freely.”
