Female Novel
Chapter 62
"You're not being a responsible husband. Shouldn't you take care of your pregnant wife?" A seriesof questions made Maddox's face turned livid. His fists tightened silently and his joints turned white.
Sam Sorrento could obviously feel the tense atmosphere, so he quickly opened his mouth beforeMaddox Yardley lost his temper. "I'm sorry, doctor. Our Young Master's legs have made it a littleinconvenient for him to move around. We didn't realize that she had been feeling uncomfortable, sowe immediately sent her over once we were aware of it. How is the patient now?"
The doctor finished talking and felt more relieved, but he still looked at Maddox with displeasure."She's all right now, but she has to stay in the hospital for the next two days for further observation."
"So are you saying that... the baby is still alive?" Sam asked cautiously.
"What?" Hearing this question, the doctor almost blew up. "Are you guys trying to get rid of thebaby?"
"No, no, I mean, it's good that the baby is still alive." Sam quickly smiled and apologized. He wastoo careless with his words!
The doctor waved his hand and left, but Sam said gloomily, "Young Master Yardley, if thatillegitimate child had died just now, you wouldn't have to do it yourself then." Hearing what he said,Maddox frowned as he said fiercely,
"Say that again!"
Sam was shocked and dared not say a word.
It was Maddox himself who said that the baby in her belly was an illegitimate child, and YoungMaster Yardley was the one who wanted to abort Kimberly's child. Why today...
Forget it. Anyway, Maddox had changed ever since he married Kimberly. He might become evenmore strange in the future. He should just adapt to it.
Thinking of this, Sam felt relieved.
The smell of disinfectants wafted through the quiet ward. Kimberly was changed into clean clothes.She was lying quietly on the bed with a pale face. She looked as if she was extremely sick.
Maddox's wheelchair was next to the bed. He stared at the woman on the bed, and the coldness inhis eyes faded a little.
"When will she wake up?" Maddox suddenly asked.
"I've asked the doctor. We may have to wait until tonight."
Maddox looked away and said, "Let's go back."
Hearing what he said, Sam was a little surprised. "Young Master Yardley, are we not going to staywith Assistant Shell?"
"Get Auntie Cherry to come over."
Sam then realized what was going on. He nodded. "Then I'll ask Auntie Cherry to prepare somefood and bring it over so that Assistant Shell could have some food when she wakes up."
The hospital was quiet at night. The patients had fallen asleep and their family members were alsoquiet. Kimberly woke up and opened her eyes to see white walls and ceilings. Beside her was agentlelooking woman.
"Second Young Madam, you're awake."
Kimberly's mind was blank for a moment when she heard her calling Second Young Madam, butlater she realized that the woman was probably one of the Yardley family's maid. She moved herfingers and tried to sit up, but she felt pain in her lower abdomen when she tried to move, so shehad to lie down again.
Auntie Cherry quickly stood up and said, "Second Young Madam, you shouldn't get up. Your body isstill weak. You should lie down for a while. Are you thirsty? I'll pour you a glass of water."
Before Kimberly could answer, Auntie Cherry turned around to pour a cup of warm water andpassed it to Kimberly. She lay there with an awkward smile. Auntie Cherry put down the cup andgently helped Kimberly to sit up. She had also put a pillow behind Kimberly's back.
"Second Young Madam, how do you feel now?"
After Kimberly drank half a glass of water, Auntie Cherry carefully asked, "Second Young Madam,do you feel uncomfortable? Do you need to call a doctor?" Kimberly shook her head and said in alow voice, "Thank you. You don't need to call a doctor. I'm fine."novelbin
There was still some pain in her lower abdomen. She subconsciously reached out to touch herlower abdomen and rub it gently.
"Second Young Madam, I have prepared dinner for you. Considering your body's condition, I madelight dishes. Please taste them."
Auntie Cherry opened the thermos and took out all the food.
Kimberly was really hungry. She didn't eat much for the whole day because of the pain. At thismoment, she really felt hungry when she saw the food.
"Second Young Madam." Auntie Cherry filled a bowl of soup for her. When Kimberly took it, she wastouched and said, "Thank you."
"Second Young Madam, don't mention it. Eat while it's still hot."
At this moment, Sam pushed Maddox to the window outside the ward. When he saw that Kimberlyhad woken up and was chatting with Auntie Cherry, he asked Sam to stop. Sam stopped and waspuzzled. "Young Master Yardley?"
"Let's go back." Maddox pursed his lips and said coldly.
Upon hearing his words, Sam was even more confused. "Go back? But we've just arrived, and... wehaven't entered the room yet. I heard that Assistant Shell has woken up. Let's go in and take a lookat her."
"Didn't you hear what I said?" Maddox's brows twitched as he suppressed his anger and saidunhappily.
"Ah? But Young Master Yardley! We're here to see Assistant Shell, aren't we?" Sam was completelyspeechless. They had just arrived at the door of the ward. It was only right for them to go in sinceshe was awake. Why did he ask to leave?
Sam did not understand what Maddox was thinking, but after Sam shared his thoughts, Maddox'saura became colder. He realized that something was wrong, so he whispered, "All right."
While he was pushing Maddox out, the door of the ward opened. Auntie Cherry came out and sawthem. "Second Young Master, you are here."
Her voice was not too loud, but it was not low either. Kimberly could hear her clearly.
When she heard that Maddox was here, Kimberly's heart suddenly tightened. She almost forgot thatit was him who sent her to the hospital.
"Second Young Master, the Second Young Madam has already woken up. Do you want to go in?"
Maddox......."
Kimberly suddenly froze. Maddox didn't come in after Auntie Cherry had greeted him. He didn'twant to see her, did he? Kimberly slowed down her pace of eating and looked out of the doorinadvertently.
At this time, she heard Maddox's cold voice.
"No."
Kimberly's hand, which was holding the bowl, shook lightly, and her eyes drooped. "Let's go!"
Sam listened to Maddox's instruction and pushed him out, leaving Auntie Cherry standing in thesame spot with a puzzled look on her face. She was confused. It was reasonable for the SecondYoung Master to come to the hospital to visit Young Madam, but why didn't he go in when he hadalready come all the way to the door of the ward? And the Second Young Madam must havealready heard that he was here, how could he leave just like that?
"Could it be... that the couple had a quarrel?" Auntie Cherry thought to herself. Then she went backto the ward after getting some water.
"Second Young Madam, did you and Young Master Yardley..."
"Did he leave?" Kimberly interrupted her and asked softly.
When she saw Kimberly lowering her eyes, Auntie Cherry felt a little distressed. She changed thewords she was going to say, "Second Young Master may have something to do, so he suddenly left.But the Second Young Master must have been very worried about you."
Listening to her, Kimberly smiled bitterly. Worried about her? She must be fooling herself.
