Chapter 769: Chapter 769: Don’t Lie To Me
Stuart came to the garden behind the hospital. Marina was also in this hospital.
She was ready to sacrifice herself. However, at the most crucial moment, Stuart dragged her into the hole.
Among lots of shootings, the chandeliers fell down, pressing on these two people.
Though the door was closed at the end, Marina was badly injured.
She was so weak. Now she was so close to death.
If Stuart didn’t find the best hospital and the best doctor to cure her, it was impossible for her to survive.
Now she got better. She was taken to A to recover in the hospital in A.
Actually, she knew the reason why Stuart took her here. Edie lived in this city.
Afternoon, the sunlight poured on the ground. Everything around them was filled with vitality. Marina could feel the smell of hope and death at the same time. Such an afternoon looked quite precious in the hospital.
After all, the sunlight represented the hope of life.
Marina took off her coat. Now she only wore a blue and white patient’s clothes. She looked much thinner. Besides, as she spent a long time staying inside the ward, her face looked so pale. At the moment, she looked so fragile, like a piece of paper. She might be destroyed immediately once someone touched her.
Stuart held her body carefully and said in a gentle voice, "Are you alright? Do you feel better now?"
"Yes, I feel better," Marina made a slight smile. She didn’t want to mention what happened just now, as if it never happened in front of her.
"Walk with me for several minutes, and then we can go back. Time for an afternoon nap for you," Stuart said in a soft voice.
"Would....would you stay with me? Would you stay with me while I am sleeping?" Marina stopped her step and looked towards Stuart carefully.
She was so scared. She was so worried that Stuart would leave her alone in that cold ward again, just like what he did just now.
Hearing this question, Stuart felt it hard to take a breath. He looked into her eyes and said word by word, "No. But I would do what I’ve promised to you."
Hearing these words, Marina didn’t know how to describe her feeling at the moment.
Stuart was a man to keep words. Since he’s promised to her, he would keep his words.
This was what Marina loved about him. That was why Marina dared to propose such a ridiculous request.
She requested Stuart to belong to herself in these three months. freewёbnoνel.com
During these three months, Stuart only belonged to her, Marina.
However, imprisoning him like this made his pain. Seeing him suffering, Marina felt so sad.
She grabbed his hands and said, "Do you hate me?"
"What do you mean?"
"It is me that forced you to stay with me for three months without contacting anyone in your family, especially Edie. You are still alive, but I don’t allow you to tell her in front of her. She is so sad, though. You could find no nothing more than watching her being immersed in deep sorrow. You desperately want to see her. But I forbid it. Do you hate me?���
Marina fixed her eyes filled with water vapor on him.
She saw he shook his head, "You save me, in the explosion and ten years ago. If you didn’t save me, I would not be able to see Edie again. Therefore, it is impossible for me to hate you. On the contrary, I appreciate you."
"Then...would you do whatever I ask you to do?" Marina asked.
Hearing this question, Stuart answered immediately without any hesitation, "Yes. But I would never betray Edie. Except that, I would do whatever you want me to do."
"Okay. Hold a wedding for me. Pretend to be my bridegroom for one day. Walk me through the red carpet, to the god-father. We don’t need to take the oath nor invite any guest. We would not have sex. This is not betrayal. As long as you agree to me to do this, I would allow you to leave me. You can go back home immediately. Okay?"
Marina said and made a slight smile. Her eyes were shining with a desperate and happy smile.
Hearing these words, Stuart frowned deeply. He fell into silence for a while.
"It is the last time I request you to do me a favor. After you finish it, we are even. I would leave here. I would work as a doctor to help more people. I would live a happy life, as you wish."
Marina continued.
Hearing these words, Stuart took a relief, "All right. I can do this."
"Be serious, though it is not a true wedding," Marina made a naughty smile on her face covered with lots of scary scars. Her smile looked so kind.
Looking at her pure eyes, Stuart raised the corner of his mouth and said seriously, "I would."
"Great. I know you would keep your words. I feel tired now. Take me back to my room. Time to take medicine."
Stuart nodded and took her back to her ward. Marina wanted to eat some fruit. So she asked Stuart to buy some fruit for her.
She stood in front of the window, seeing Stuart leaving. After he disappeared from her sight, she turned around to ask the doctor, "How much time do I have?"
"Miss Days, don’t be so pessimistic. We’ve got the best medical instrument recently. We would try our best. You would get better." the doctor tried to comfort her.
Marina smiled slightly, "Don’t lie to me. I am also a doctor. I’ve been a doctor for many years. I know my condition."
"Well...." hearing these words, the doctor didn’t know how to respond.
"I want to read everything about my illness. I can get the answer. Besides, please don’t tell him about my illness. He would feel guilty. Doctor, I know you are a good doctor. You wouldn’t refuse me, right?"
She raised the corner of her mouth. As the sunlight poured onto her face, she looked much softer now. She was so sick at the moment, though, she looked so sunny and bright at the moment.
The doctor felt difficult, "What if he asks me?"
"Tell him I’ve been better and better. All I need is to take a rest, and I would recover gradually as long as I am taken well. It is so easy to deceive him. He would believe you, as long as you say those words seriously."
When mentioning Stuart, Marina would smile more happily. She felt so warm at the bottom of the heart when mentioning the man she loved deeply.
The doctor immediately knew how to deal with Stuart. After Stuart came back and asked the doctor about Marina’s condition, the doctor lied to him.
Hearing the doctor’s words, Stuart took a relief.
After the doctor left, there were only Marina and Stuart staying together inside the ward.
Stuart was peeling the apple for her.
Marina already knew the dare of her death was coming, and she became so sleepy. But she wanted to take a look at Stuart. Because she would not be able to see him again after she passed away, but she could not do that because she felt extremely sleepy.
When seeing this, Stuart said gently, "What? Are you sleepy?"
"It is so warm inside. That makes me want to take a nap."
"The doctor tells me you are recovering. But why do you still look so pale and weak?" Stuart frowned and asked confusingly.
Hearing these words, Marina couldn’t help herself laughing out, "Because it is not easy to recover. It runs out of my energy. Don’t you know about that? Perhaps you couldn’t see it. But I can feel I am getting better. I might be able to jump out again after two months."
"Great. Then I would take Edie to visit you."
"Okay. Don’t forget to bring me a gift." Marina said in a happy voice. But she got more sleepy.
Finally, she smiled and said in a light voice, "Stuart, I want to sleep for a while. I take those words back. You can go to visit Edie now. But don’t tell me when you come back...."
Finally, all words became her sleep talking.
Hearing these words, Stuart had a bad feeling. Marina looked so peaceful while sleeping.
