My Husband is a Paralyzed Man

Chapter 16: Are You Afraid That They Will Offend Me?

The next morning when Sophie wakes up.

He moved his body slightly, but his back was still filled with agonizing pain. It was so painful that he woke up completely.

After she awakens, she realizes that she is lying in a hospital bed with Chase.

The hospital bed was a single bed, and it was rather tight for the two of them to lie there. Therefore, he hugged her very tightly, and their bodies were very close to each other. He could even hear his heartbeat through his chest clearly.

His heartbeat was beating steadily, and the rhythm and range were the same as his heartbeat.

Unknowingly, he smiled.

This was the first time someone had hugged her while sleeping. It was also the first time for him to hear a person's heartbeat from such a close distance.

He looked up at Chase's face.

His side profile was handsome and graceful, and his collarbone showed his sexiness and charm. His eyebrows were long and narrow, and his eyelashes were long as well. Her lips are perfect.

In the morning sun, his eyes were dazzling.

"Wait on! The eye! '

Sophie regained her wits all of a sudden. "You... You're already up. "

Chase was amused by his charming silly appearance. He could not help but give a kiss on his forehead. "Is it still painful?"

"No, it doesn't hurt anymore."

Sophie didn't know if it was because of her kiss or greeting, but in short, her heart rate was getting faster, and she must have blushed.

"That's great."

She stroked her charming face. "Why didn't you admit to the mistake last night?"

Sophie pursed her lips. "That's because I'm not wrong."

"But if you admit it, you won't suffer such physical pain."

"I am a man of integrity." Sophie looked at him with a stubborn look. "I can bear it as much as it hurts. However, it is impossible that I will admit what I did not do, and it is also impossible that I will claim that what I did was right.

"It's the saddest business if one abandons his principles. My principle is I wouldn't admit it if it wasn't my fault. "

Her serious appearance was adorable, and looking at him, Chase sighed. "You are precious."

Initially, it was thought that Sophie's wound might have only healed after one week. However, his body was strong, and his injuries almost completely healed after three days.

He packed his things early when it was the day for him to be repatriated. When he got home, he threw himself into bed. "Had my grandmother didn't like staying in the hospital. That's too oppressive. "

He let out a long sigh of relief, and just as he was about to continue sighing with emotion, his phone rang in his bag.

It was a phone call from his aunt.

For a few days, her aunt did not call her. Sophie pursed her lips and answered the call carefully. "Aunty..."

She thought her aunt called her again to ask her about her development with Chase. Therefore, he stuttered. "Over the last few days, I haven't..."

"Sophie..." The voice of the woman on the other end of the phone was filled with sobs. "Your grandmother passed out again just now. They tried to resuscitate him in the emergency room! "

Sophie gaped in the blink of an eye.

"How can..."

When he promised to marry Chase, his grandmother had been transferred to the best hospital in Lahta City. His condition has become more stable since then. How could such a thing happen all of a sudden...

"Come quickly. He was seventy years old. It may be at any time... "

Her aunt cried and could not force herself to finish her sentence.

Sophie's heart was pounding in tension.

He immediately hung up the phone and ran out in a hurry.

At the bathroom door, she meets Chase, who just came out of the restroom.

At that critical moment, Chase threw away his walking stick and pulled it back. He then fell backwards from the impact as he hit him.

Fortunately, he used his other hand to prop himself up against the wall, and this was what prevented them from falling to the floor.

"What's going on? Why are you in such a hurry? "

"My... My grandma... " Sophie's voice was filled with sobs. He looked up at her. "Can you please ask the driver to send me to the hospital? They're trying to save him in the emergency room right now... "

He was so anxious that his face turned red, and his voice was filled with anxiety. Seeing that, the man became nervous as well, and he nodded. "I'll send you there."

Sophie pursed her lips. Just as he was about to say something, the man had already pressed the call bell on the door.

The driver, James, rushed over quickly. "Sir."

"Send us to the hospital." Chase looked at James.

James immediately entered the room and helped her pick up the coat and silk used to cover her eyes. After which, he immediately prepared a wheelchair and pushed Chase with large strides, descending by using a special lift.

In the blink of an eye, James had pushed Chase out the door.

Lily covers Sophie's body. "Mrs, be careful."

Only then did Sophie regain her wits. She did not even manage to thank Lily as she held onto the phone and rushed out quickly.

She hesitates when Chase suggests that she send him to the hospital. After all, he felt it was a troublesome affair for him to come out considering he was a cripple.

Yet... James actually took less than two minutes when he completed that series of actions now.

It was really fast.

He sat next to Chase with a complicated feeling. "Are you just sending me there and back after the car's stopped, or..."

Chase waved his hand to ask James to start the car. "You're very confused. How could I let you go alone? "

Sophie pursed her lips. "What if... You didn't get out of the car?"

Her grandmother was in such a state now, which meant her aunt should have contacted two of her aunts other than herself.

Her other aunt still doesn't know she's married.

If Chase went to the hospital with her, her other aunts and their children would definitely ask a lot of questions upon seeing her, so much so that they would scoff at her viciously for being a cripple.

"Why?"

The air inside the car suddenly turned cold, and Sophie could clearly feel that the man beside her, whose eyes were covered in black silk, was a little unhappy.

Still, in order to avoid more trouble, he could only strengthen himself. "It's nothing. It's just that all my relatives might be there. The villagers have no etiquette, so... "

Chase raised his lips slightly. "Are you afraid they'll offend me?"

He lowered his head, grasped his fingers, and nodded silently. "Mk."

The man glanced at him. "I won't fuss about it for your sake."

Secretly, Sophie rolled her eyes. He could refrain from being bothered with it for his sake, but his relatives would definitely not keep their mouths shut for his sake.

Her other two aunts were always evil and unkind. When her grandmother was seriously ill at the time, they needed some fifteen thousand dollars for her grandmother's medical expenses. Each of his other two aunts had given his uncle five hundred dollars. They had asked his uncle to think of something for the rest of the money needed.

His uncle was an honest farmer, and he had absolutely no way to raise so much money.

If the people from the Moore family did not show up, her grandmother might not be able to survive to this day.

Her other two aunts even treated their real mothers like that. They didn't like her more because she was just a girl picked up.

In addition, they claim that she, who is an outsider, was the cause when her grandmother fell ill.

As Sophie hesitates and tries to figure out a way to stop Chase, the car stops, and she hears a voice within the man again. "I've already arrived. It's too impolite if I don't get out of the car to see them. "
