It was late at night.
The two children of the Hanover family were still with Mabie. They fell asleep after they were fed with milk. Mabie then called Vera.
Vera's voice on the other side of the phone was nasally, and she could tell that she had just cried.
"It's okay, Mom. The doctor said that it was just a slight concussion, and ssmall trauma. He'll be fine after srest." "That's good. Since the doctor said it's all right, don't worry about it. Vivy, why don't you chto rest for the night? I'll get dad to pick you up and I'll go to the hospital to watch over him." "No need, Mom." Vera sat on a bench in the hospital and shook her head while answering, "I can watch over him myself. It's also a very hard work for you to take care of the children for me, so you should rest early." After hanging up, she closed her eyes and leaned back tiredly. Minerva quickly helped her up. "Are you all right? Why don't you go back and rest? Letstay here with Maddox tonight." After the incident, Vera also called her. Minerva immediately cover with Maddox.
After Minerva spoke, Maddox glanced at Vera. "Yes, I'll stay here with her. There won't be any problems." "Thank you." After saying her thanks, Vera still shook her head. "However, I still want to wait for him to wake up." That day, Vera was truly scared out of her wits.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTill then, the injury on her ankle still had not been dealt with. She was only relieved when the hospital said that Quill was fine.
"You can stay by his side and wait for him to wake up. We won't stop you, but you have to treat the wound on your ankle first, all right?" Minerva suggested, "If you don't treat it now, when my brother wakes up, he'll definitely worry when he sees you in this state. He's already injured, but he'll have to worry about you." Vera thought about it and felt that it made sense too. "Okay then." After that, Minerva and Maddox took her to treat her injury, then brought her back to Quill's side.
Maddox's heart ached as he saw how his wife was busy running around. He pulled her to the side and whispered, "I've called the driver over. When he arrives later, you can go hfirst. I'll stay with her tonight." "No." Minerva immediately shook her head. "How can I just let you and Vera stay here?" Upon hearing that, he could not help arching his eyebrows. "What do you mean by that? Do you think that I'll be interested in any other woman other than you? Or, do you think that I want to stay here because I have sulterior motives?" Hearing that, she almost choked on her own saliva.
"What nonsense are you spouting?" She speechlessly reached out her hand and pinched his arm. "What are you thinking about? I'm not letting you stay with her because I'm worried that she'll feel uncomfortable. She'll be watching over her husband at night. What good will you do by staring at her by her side? It's better if I'm the one staying with her. You go hand take care of Jelly Bean." "No," he immediately rejected her idea, "how can I be at ease if my wife is to stay in the hospital for a whole night? There are servants at home. The child will be fine. I will accompany you." In the end, the two of them stayed back together. Vera stayed in the ward while Minerva and Maddox stayed outside the ward.
It was getting colder at night. Maddox took off his coat and put it on Minerva. Then, he took her into his arms.
Her lips were so cold that they turned pale. His heart ached so much for her. He scolded her in a low voice, "Now you know it's not easy! I told you to go back before, but you insisted on being in the cold here. Go in and be with her. There's a blanket and a bed inside. There's still sspace for you to rest with her." Minerva's face turned pale from the cold, but she still stared at him. "What about you? Once I go in, you'll be alone. Won't you be lonely?" "What? You don't need to worry about me. I'm a man, and I'm strong. The cold wouldn't bother me!" Minerva hugged his thin waist tightly and buried her face in his embrace. She muttered, "I don't want to go in. Perhaps, if we hold each other tighter, we might not feel cold." Did she want him to hug her tighter? That was a good idea, but the cold air was seeping in through every corner, and the hospital ward was not a hotel. It would be a waste of resources to get a ward to sleep in. Moreover, recently, there was a shortage of wards, so there really weren't any extra wards there.
Maddox wanted her to accompany him. He wanted to hug her tighter, but he did not agree in the end because he was worried that she might catch a cold.
"Holding each other won't help. Get up and go sleep inside. If you go in, then I can have the coat back." "You're so petty. It turns out that you just want your coat back, and you even bragged about being strong, you liar!" Maddox didn't argue with her. He was afraid that the longer they argued, the longer his wife would have to suffer in the cold. As such, he took his coat back and pushed her into the ward.
"Go in and have a rest." After she was being pushed into the ward, the door of the ward was closed behind her. Vera raised her head. Seeing Minerva walking in, she stood up and walked to her side. "Minerva, why are you both still here?" "Silly Vera, how can we leave you, a girl, in the hospital alone at night? Moreover, Quill is my brother, and Maddox is his brother-in-law, so it's reasonable for us to stay here. Don't think too much." "That being said, I still don't want you to suffer here within the middle of the night. Actually, I can look after him myself."
"All right, stop talking about it. Let's take turns. I'll take a nap first, and then you can take a nap when it's midnight The two of us will take turn to look after him. Maddox will be fine outside." Minerva quickly decided what they should do. Vera saw that she was persistent, so she said nothing more.
She anxiously sat on the edge of the hospital bed and stared at the pale Quill. Her heart felt like it was hanging on the edge of a cliff.
How could that happen so suddenly? Did the accident happen when he was driving because he didn't rest well recently? Fortunately, it was just a slight concussion. If it had been more severe, Vera and the two children wouldn't know what to do about it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough it was just a slight concussion, it still terrified her.
Previously, she was in a state of worry and panic. Only then, when she looked at Quill's serene expression Strong while sleeping and his smooth breathing, did she feel her heart gradually calm down. "You can't let anything happen to you," she said in her heart, and only she herself could hear it. The next day.
It was already noon when Quill woke up.
Minerva went hto rest, and then Mabie made sfood and sent it to the hospital.
She was chatting quietly with Vera in the ward.
"He's been too tired during this period. Otherwise, how could he have driven into the guardrail? I said m would help you take care of the children, but you young people just wouldn't listen. Now, do you regret it? You have to go to work at day and take care of the children at night.
Even a robot needs to rest." X
