Chapter 235
Thinking of this, Edward gently put Nelissa’s little hand on the quilt, got up, and went into the bathroom to sort himself out. He didn’t close the door, so it was convenient for him to see what was going on outside at any time.
He looked at the mirror in front of him, opened it, and washed his face. He had never been so embarrassed. At this moment, his state of mind was completely different. He had no time to care about his image. His whole heart was focused on Nelissa, and he kept thinking about Nelissa.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
He tidied himself up, washed his clean handkerchief, and went out to sit on the chair next to the hospital bed. He gently picked up his warm little hand and wiped the blood stains on the edge of her nails carefully. His fingers slowly wiped her wounds one by one, avoiding the small wounds on her skin. The whole process lasted more than an hour.
Edward had never had such a serious experience in serving others. It was he himself who was willing to do it on his own accord.
After that, Edward called Andrew, asking him to pick up Noelle for Nathan after school, and then took them to eat first. He would take them wherever they wanted to go and send them back to Nelissa’s home at night.
He called Jolene again and told him about Nelissa’s car accident.
Jolene wanted to rush to the hospital as soon as he heard that Nelissa was in a car accident, but Edward refused and asked her to take care of Noelle for Nathan.
Jolene was very nervous and warm. He kept asking if Nelissa’s injuries were serious. How was she now? However, Edward didn’t answer much. Towards this man who was extremely difficult to get along with, Jolene didn’t dare to question him in a tone of questioning. Whatever Edward said, his aura was always inferior to others.
Finally, Jolene said worriedly, “They won’t be able to see Nelissa tonight. They’ll always ask me.”
Noelle had been very clingy for Nathan. Usually, when she worked overtime or didn’t go back all night, they would ask her again and again. In the end, they couldn’t bear it and were willing to sleep.
Edward said in a deep voice, “I’ll call them tonight.” He then added, “Don’t tell them about Nelissa. They’ll cry.”
The main reason why Edward did not allow Nelissa to come to the hospital for Nathan was that they would definitely cry, and so would Nelissa. This was the last thing he wanted to see.
“Okay.” Jolene agreed with Edward’er on this point.
If Noelle knew that Nelissa had had a car accident in the past Nathan, she would definitely cry and ask to go to the hospital to see her. Nelissa loved to cry. At that time, the three of them would cry out of breath and didn’t know who to coax first.
After arranging it for Nathan, Edward was slightly relieved. Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Jolene asked him, “Why did Nelissa get into a car accident?”
He looked at Nelissa. His eyes were deep and dark, and the blood at the corners of his eyes had not faded away. “I don’t know yet.”
Jolene immediately became a little angry. He felt that Edward was irresponsible. “How could you not know? You’re her husband. She’s marrying you not only for the protection of the law! You must be sincere towards Nelissa, right? You should know very well how much she likes you. Don’t let her down.”
Some couples could go through thick and thin together, while others could only go through thick and thin with wealth. Jolene had no confidence in marriage, so he was worried that Nelissa would run into an unfortunate marriage. Edward’s image as a rich young master had always been hard to associate with a good husband. Perhaps it was because he was too outstanding and rich, which made people uneasy.
This time, Edward had a good temper. He allowed Jolene to give him a lecture and didn’t retort. When she was done speaking, he said, “Let Noelle wait for my call Nathan later.”
Jolene was taken aback. She had thought that Edward would refute her or explain himself, but he didn’t. Did this mean that he was accepting her criticism?
Jolene found it a little hard to believe. She had already prepared a bunch of words to argue with Edward. Who knew that the other party wouldn’t put on any airs of superiority this time. She thought about it again. She hadn’t gone too far just now, had she? Nelissa might feel sorry for him.
He put down his phone.
Edward was still holding Nelissa’s little hand. He slowly lowered his head, and his tall body leaned against the edge of the hospital bed. He was not as determined as usual, and only in front of Nelissa would he reveal the most real side.
No one was omnipotent, including Edward.
He kissed her cold fingers gently, and a drop of moisture slid across her back…
Only Edward himself knew how important Nelissa was to him. He couldn’t express it with words, and he couldn’t even find a suitable word to describe it. It was the first time that he loved a woman so deeply. He had never had such an unprecedented mood before, but now it was all given to Nelissa.
As for Nelissa’s feelings, Edward had never held anything back. He didn’t even try to hide it.
It might be ridiculous, but Nelissa was indeed the first woman of Edward. From the early puberty of young hormones to the mature young age, Edward had always been indifferent to love and desire. It was not that he had never been impulsive. Especially when he was young in school, the topic between boys was always related to another beautiful opposite sex. As he spoke, his white limbs seemed to appear in front of him.
It was because of this that Edward came into contact with a few beautiful men that he found that it was just a matter of time. When he really talked about it, he was in low spirits. It was too troublesome. He didn’t even think it was a waste of time to conquer a woman who was constantly chasing after him and asking if he loved her.
In the end, Edward simply vented all his energy on playing basketball. He would rather sweat than deal with a beautiful woman who had lost her appetite. He no longer had time to think about lust.
After that, it was the first time they had met Nelissa.
His heart, which had been empty for a long time, was severely hit and seemed to be filled. There was no reason for desire, but it was very overbearing. It was the first time that he wanted a woman so strongly.
The only girl who made him fall in love with her in an instant.
A few hours later, the anesthetic on Nelissa’s body slowly passed. When she opened her eyes and woke up, her consciousness was still very scattered. Her whole body was soft, and she could not exert any strength. Her body gradually showed a trace of pain, and then it became more and more painful. It was as if her bones were being crushed, spreading from inside out.
She opened her mouth and cried out in pain, but her voice was so low that she didn’t even have the strength to shout.
Her hand suddenly tightened, and someone held her hand tightly. She gradually gathered her consciousness and found that there was someone standing beside her. She recognized that it was Edward, and there were several people dressed like doctors and nurses. She remembered that she had a car accident, which was very chaotic.
The moment she fell to the ground, many people surrounded her. Even the sky above her seemed to be spinning. She was in great pain. Someone called an ambulance for her. Her mind was filled with the sounds of words. Then she fainted and knew nothing.
