Chapter 242
Hanging up the call with his friend, Edward held his phone tightly and tried his best to suppress his violent emotions. His slightly lowered eyes were as dark as if they were dyed with ink. They were strange and mysterious as they emitted a fury.
Through the phone call just now, Edward was very sure that someone wanted to harm Nelissa. It was not an accidental act or a simple threat. The other party wanted Nelissa to die!
Edward couldn’t wait to kill that person. His bottom line was his family and Nelissa. He couldn’t let anyone think of breaking his past!
He heaved a deep sigh of relief, and his face softened a little. The moment he turned around, he was back to normal. He looked at the Nelissa on the hospital bed, and his eyes became much gentler. She was leaning her head to the side and smiling at him. Her smile was extremely gentle, but her injured forehead was wrapped in gauze, which made her look more delicate and pitiful, which could melt people’s hearts.
Edward also smiled along with her, and his heart was filled with her charming smile. In the end, he lost his soul and felt comfortable all over.
Back then, it might have been because of Nelissa that her heart had been drawn away. She had been completely unaware of it.
He returned to Nelissa’s side and saw that she looked a little dazed. He asked in a gentle voice, “Do you want to sleep?”
“Okay.” Nelissa nodded her head. She was only in high spirits for a while before she collapsed again. She felt that her body was still a little weak and needed to fall asleep, but she was in so much pain that she could not fall asleep. After a long time, she was painful and tired. She reached out and gently pulled the hem of Edward’s clothes. She asked him, “Are you leaving tonight?”
Edward shook his head. “Why should I go? You’re here. Where else do I need to go?”
“I won’t go anywhere. Edward will always be with Nelissa.”
Nelissa felt that his words were as if he would follow her wherever she went. Was this called a husband singing with a woman? It seemed that something was wrong. She was amused by her own thoughts and there was a hint of sweetness in her heart.
“What are you laughing at?” Edward lowered his head and asked her. He reached out and caressed her fair cheeks.
Nelissa’s face subconsciously rubbed against his warm palm a few times and said, “Fortunately, I didn’t die. When I passed out, I was so afraid that I would never see you again.”
Feeling that Edward’s big hand on her face suddenly froze, Nelissa looked up at him. His face was very gloomy in the dim light, stained with a deep melancholy. He looked straight at her, as if he wanted to see her in his eyes. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice, “I’m sorry.”
At this moment, no matter how many reasons he had to take responsibility, it was his fault the moment she was injured.
Nelissa’s eyes were red, and her heart was so broken that she couldn’t say a word.
Perhaps only those who had survived the disaster could understand this feeling. All the hardships she had suffered in the past were not bitter at all. Only the person she loved would realize that she had wasted too much time. If she did not love him enough, she would not be able to regret it. In the future, she had to cherish and love the person she loved every day in the future. She had to love him more than before.
Nelissa’s small pale mouth moved, and she said something in a low voice. After that, she closed her mouth and stopped talking. Her pale face was a little charming red.
Edward rarely went into a daze, but at this moment, he was in a daze. Although Nelissa’s voice was very low, he could hear it clearly. It was like a dream. Yes, he had such a beautiful dream. It was shameful and beautiful.
Nelissa said, “Edward, I love you.”
Compared with her “husband”, Nelissa preferred to call him by his name because there was only one Edward in the world.
Edward’s full Adam’s apple bobbed. For some reason, his voice became hoarseer. He asked, “Say it again.”NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Nelissa lowered her head and looked at her ten fingers. She was too embarrassed to look at him. “Stop talking. I’m going to sleep.”
Edward stared at the woman in front of him who was spinning her hair toward him. His heart flame rose. However, all of this was not enough to resist the joy that was surging wildly from the bottom of his heart. It suddenly filled his entire heart. “Let’s say it again.”
Nelissa shook her head and said seriously, “No, you will be proud if you say too much.”
She slightly raised her eyes and peeked at Edward, only to find that the man’s elegant and beautiful hand was raised to cover his handsome face. Although it was covered a little, she could still see the light red on his handsome face. He was enchanting and sexy. He looked straight at her with his deep eyes, which were charming and overbearing.
Nelissa felt that this man was so deadly. She was a patient now…
Edward’s eyes were full of wolf spirit. He lowered his voice and said, “I’ll deal with you when you recover.”
Nelissa answered with a “hmm” sound, and her heart was beating so fast that she couldn’t bear it.
This single ward was not very big. There was a set of sofas and two moving chairs by the wall. The room was small, but the environment was very clean. A private hospital was better than an ordinary hospital.
After lying down, Nelissa looked at Edward and asked, “Where are you going to sleep tonight?”
Edward sat down on the sofa, patted it and said, “Just sleep on the sofa for one night. It’s almost two o’clock now. Just sleep for a few hours. I’ll change to another ward for you tomorrow morning. It’s too small here.”
Nelissa glanced at the sofa. It was probably only the length of one of Edward’s legs. If he wanted to sleep here, he had to bend his legs. She said, “How can this sofa be enough for you to sleep on?” Then she said, “Why are you so tall? It won’t be troublesome if you are a little shorter.”
In fact, there was a temporary mattress for family members in the hospital that could be rented with money, but Edward didn’t like to use it. He lay down on the sofa, bent his legs, and said lazily, “It’s not so tall. How can you be your son’s idol?”
Nelissa smiled. “He’s also your son.”
“Yes.” Edward paused, as if he had been thinking about it for Nathan. “My son is really good. He has sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and a high nose. He has inherited all the excellent genes that should be inherited. How handsome he will be in the future.”
Nelissa was slightly surprised. She rarely heard Edward praise her son directly for Nathan. He treated his son more like a good friend or brother, not a father who valued men more than women and only liked his son. On second thought, was he praising him for Nathan, or for his good genes?
The two of them chatted non-stop. Gradually, Nelissa fell asleep. She had no dreams all night. When she woke up, the sky outside was slightly bright. It was less than six o’clock. She had only slept for more than three hours. She woke up in pain, painful, and thirsty. She did not know if she had been lying for a long time. Her waist was still a little sore and she wanted to get up.
She tilted her head to one side and looked at Edward’er, who was resting on the sofa. His left arm was raised to block her eyes. He should have not woken up yet.
Nelissa stared at the ring on the ring finger of Edward’s left hand for a while. She fumbled for her left hand in the quilt and turned the ring slightly with her fingertip, feeling very peaceful.
She didn’t want to wake him up. She tried to get up by herself and poured some water for herself. As soon as she moved, she couldn’t help but groan and feel pain.
“What’s wrong?” Edward suddenly asked. He had already gotten up from the sofa with a heavy gaze.
