He was in a rush to pick up his wife, so in order not to waste his time, I had no choice but to agree.
After he left, I called Theo to tell him that I met with a n accident and was in the hospital. Knowing that he would be worried, I made a point to tell him that I was not badly injured so he did not have to worry too much.
However, Theo refused to listen and immediately canceled his meeting to rush over.
When he arrived and saw me lying on the hospital bed with a pale complexion, a cold and frosty aura began t o exude from his body. "I surrender. I merely took my eyes off of you for a moment and you’re already injuring yourself. Maybe you should just stay by my side every day from now on."
He lifted the blanket on top of me after saying that.
I looked speechlessly at him.
I was an adult. There was really no need to lecture me like I was a kid.
When the nurse came over for a routine check, Theo asked her, "Where are her injuries located?”
He had otherworldly good looks and the noble aura on him was exceptional, which made the nurse’s face
flush when she was stared at by him like that.
"Her knees and elbows were cut, but that's no big deal at all. She might not be able to move her waist for a few days because it'll hurt if she does. But she'll be fine after recuperating for two weeks."
Theo nodded, then looked maliciously at me. "Where's the driver?"
I shrank my neck. "He’s driving his wife home and will come over in a while.”
"Driving his wife home?" Theo's eyes were on fire. "I think he ran away.”
"No, he's not that kind of person."
Theo merely sneered but said no more.
Five minutes later, the driver came back as promised. When he entered the ward and saw Theo, he subconsciously took a step back. Ordinary people like him were naturally born with a sense of fear for elites like Theo.
