Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1275

My mind was full of the image of Matthew covered in blood. I did not care that Theo and I were still at odds. I asked a little anxiously, "How's Matthew?"

Theo's slightly good-natured face was instantly dark after what I said.

His eyes were encased in ice that could not be melted, and even his voice was icy." You’re really worried about him, huh?"

I ignored his sarcastic remark and asked again, “Which ward is he in? Is someone there to take care of him?"

"You!"

Theo's gaze was even more terrifying now. He did not know what to say.

He looked deeply at me before leaving the ward.

His gaze was filled with disappointment, and there seemed to be hints of absurdity too.

I knew he was angry, but even if I knew he was going to get angry, I still had to ask. How could I not ask anything when Matthew was hurt so badly trying to save me?

As he refused to tell me Matthew's condition, I grew very worried. Ignoring the fact that I was still on an IV drip, I got up and was ready to pull out the needle and go see Matthew.

At this moment, someone approached the ward.

Keith saw that I was going to pull out the needle and quickly dashed over to stop me. "You're very weak right now, Mrs. Grant.

You must finish this IV drip.

I pursed my lips. "Can you see how Matthew is doing for me, then? I'm really worried. Also, is there anyone there to take care of him? If not, can you hire a caregiver for him?"

Keith sighed and said a little helplessly," Mrs. Grant, are you actually clueless, or are you pretending to be clueless? Mr. Zimmer got hurt trying to protect you. How could Mr. Grant not help him?

"You're Mr. Grant's wife, and he loves you very much. He rushed over the first instant he learned about your accident and made arrangements to hangle everything. You were covered in blood and sat in front of the emergency room, anxious for another man. You took no notice of anyone around you. You didn't even hear Mr. Grant when he talked to you.

"When you passed out, he was so worried about you that even a grown man like him cried. He knew you were worried about Mr. Zimmer, so he found the best doctor in the city to operate on him. When you asked about Mr. Zimmer the first thing you woke up, even though he knows that it's normal for you to behave like that after Mr.

Zimmer saved you, Mr. Grant is still very heartbroken by it. After all, he’s your husband.

"Mrs. Grant, no matter how tough Mr. Grant is, he's still very fragile in front of his loved ones. When he saw how lost you were because of another man, how can he not feel hurt?”

Keith was a man of few words just like Theo. Now that he had said so much to me, it was obvious that he felt genuinely sorry for Theo.

I looked at him in a daze, not knowing what to say.

Keith sighed again. "Mr. Zimmer is not in any danger anymore, Mrs. Grant. But he’ll only wake up after the effects of the anesthetic wear off. There are doctors and nurses around him. You really don't have to worry. What you need now is plenty of rest to recover."

He helped me to lie back down on the bed after saying that.

I replayed our conversation in my head and felt a little bad.

I had indeed failed to notice Theo's feelings on this matter.

When the IV drip was done, the nurse came to remove the needle. After asking her whether I could get out of bed and walk around, I planned to go see Matthew.

When the nurse brought me there, Matthew was still not awake. His head was wrapped in thick bandages. It turned out that he had a head injury too.

I looked at the nurse and asked, "How are his injuries?"

"The doctor said that he'd sustained a head injury and suffered a concussion. We’ll only know the side effects after he wakes up. His left rib was pierced by a steel pipe, and although it didn’t hurt any vital organs, the injury is serious enough. His other injuries aren't very serious. Such injuries require him to be hospitalized for a period of time."

His rib was pierced by a steel pipe. My heart quivered.

I was buried under, and Matthew's blood had flowed to my abdomen, which terrified
