Yvonne was silent.
When it rains, it pours.
What a coincidence!
However, on second thought, this made sense. This was Marcus' mobile phone. It would be reasonable for Marcus to make the call. Eva had just exploited a loophole.
Yvonne hesitated for a moment, then smiled, "Marcus, take good care of Eva."
"Yvonne! Yvonne, wait, don't hang up. Yvonne, listen to me." Marcus was a smart man. He and Yvonne had been in love for six or seven years now. He knew exactly what Yvonne was like.
For Yvonne to say what she did, something must have happened in the ward when he went out just now.
He went out to do the paperwork Eva, only to find that he had forgotten his mobile phone when he got to the payment counter.
He had just come back to get his cell phone.
Because Eva's condition was somewhat serious, she may have to be hospitalized for a while. Therefore, she would not be able to come home for a while. Plus, Marcus was too busy while Eva was getting examined. He did not have the chance to talk to Yvonne at all, which was why he called.
He did not expect Yvonne to start ranting.
That indirectly proved one thing. Just now, when his cell phone was in the ward, Eva had taken it.
"Yvonne, listen to me." Marcus coaxed
Yvonne, "You know that we have to be calm in all things, right baby? You know me the best, just as how I know you the best, right? At this important moment we cannot be hasty.
After things are settled, you can punish me how you like. I'll come home and kneel on a washboard as penance to you! Is that okay?"
This was equivalent to saying it to Eva.
He wanted Eva to know that his relationship with Yvonne was unbreakable!
No one could take advantage of it.
On the other end of the phone, Yvonne immediately shed tears.
Of course, she knew Marcus best.
He was her husband!
It was impossible for him to wrong her.
