Chapter 304 I Am a Married Man
Blanca was by Matthew’s side all day, serving him whatever he needed and making sure he was getting enough rest, which allowed Matthew a great time to enjoy the care a patient should have.
Matthew suddenly felt that it was a small blessing in disguise.
He only wished Blanca would be treating him this nicely forever.
However, in the afternoon there showed an unwelcome guest.
“Oh my goodness, Matthew. What happened, honey? I rushed over here after hearing you weren’t well. What was going on?”
Malinda was crying her way into the ward – the look on her face caught Blanca off guard.
Malinda would have made a terrific actor – such a shame for the movie industry!
Blanca scooted Malinda away – Blanca was holding some sliced apples she had prepared for Matthew and she stood on the side to properly “admire” the show Malinda was putting on.
“Matthew, honey. How are you feeling right now? Do you need me to get the doctor for you…”
Saying so, Malinda reached out to hold onto Matthew’s hand. All Matthew could feel now was a heavily throbbing headache.
He was totally fine before.
And Malinda bugging him now only made everything worse.
“Malinda, was the wound on your hand getting better?”
“I am fine, not entirely recovered, but I am ready to be discharged!” Malinda stopped crying immediately hearing Matthew checking on herself. She put on a joyous smile right away.
Malinda felt awesome to know that Matthew somehow cared about her.
Matthew must be disappointed with Blanca from last night.
Thinking so, Malinda pushed Blanca, who was next to her, away deliberately. Blanca didn’t get much sleep last night and she had been feeling kind of fuzzy today. And Malinda almost knocked Blanca over by that slight push. She wasn’t in the mood to start up a fight with Malinda at the moment, though.
“Excuse me, can you scoot over?” Malinda said, and she turned to look at Matthew, “Matthew, honey…”
“Please don’t.”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Matthew was not pleased to see this happening to Blanca at all. He looked up, stared at Malinda, and something embarrassing, “Head back and get your rest now that you aren’t fully recovered. Don’t waste your time here with me.”
“Come on, it isn’t a waste of time…”
“I need to rest,” Matthew said slowly.
He never knew Malinda had feelings for himself until now. But now that he knew, he would try to keep a distance.
Blanca saw the surprised look on Malinda’s face. She burst out into a laugh.
Matthew took a look at Blanca, “Baby, walk our guest out.”
“Sure, honey!”
Blanca finally felt joyfully relieved and a bit touched. She looked at Matthew and then waved her hand at Malinda, “Miss Roach, my hubby needs to rest up. See you some other time. Bye-bye!”
Blanca finished her words and blocked in front of Malinda’s sight.
Malinda was pissed off but there was nothing she could do.
After sending Malinda away, Blanca turned around and saw Matthew lying on the hospital bed smiling, “I did great back there, right?”
“Puff… Matthew!”
Blanca couldn’t help laughing. She smiled feeling content and nodded. She passed some fruits in her hands to Matthew, “Not bad at all. This is your reward.”
“Of course I did. I am a married man.” Matthew said.
