Coral was surprised, “Loredana hasn’t been under observation for a week yet. Can she be discharged now?”
“Yes, you pack up now.” There was no expression on his face, obviously he didn’t want to say much. She understood his meaning, thus she didn’t say anything else and continued to pack Loredana’s household goods in the cupboard.
He took out the food from the insulated box and the food inside was still hot. He put the food on the bedside table and held the porridge in his hand, then tested the temperature with his lips before he fed Loredana.
She didn’t open her mouth and looked at him.
He fed her again, the porcelain spoon pressed against her lower lip, “Even if you’re not hungry, your son is hungry, right?”
She grabbed his hand, “I want to see Jeffery Harris.”
“Let’s talk after you eat. Open your mouth.” He didn’t want her to look for Jeffery with her poor health now. If she was irritated, he didn’t dare to think of the consequences. He couldn’t take any risks. She still didn’t open her mouth, “Do you promise me?”
She thought that she needed to talk with Jeffery.
“Are you threatening me?”
She didn’t say anything as she didn’t know if something like today would happen again afterwards. She wasn’t scared but she was worried about him. “Do you know I’m tormented and I don’t dare to ask you as I’m afraid that you’ll be burdened? I really hate myself now, if I don’t have this child …” Before she could finish her words, her lips were suddenly sealed by him, not with a kiss, but with a very brutal nibble. She frowned and didn’t say anything. His palm touched her flat belly. Even though there was a life being conceived inside, there was no trace of it at all. But he could feel that there was a heartbeat. That was his child thriving inside.
“Don’t say anything like this at whatever time, he will be sad if he hears that. All you’ve to do is eat and sleep well. Don’t worry about anything else.”
“What about you? Will there be any danger?” she was a little startled when he held his gun as she didn’t expect him to carry it.
Was he going to do something dangerous?
She was confused.
He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips touching her eyes and cheeks, “No, I’m going to grow old with you. I’m reluctant to die. Well, don’t think nonsense. Eat something first and we’ll leave when Abbott Baron comes later.”
She wrapped her arms around his neck, buried her face into his neck and choked slightly, “Remember what you said. If anything happens to you, I’ll bring your child to remarry, let him to have another surname and make you a cuckold.”
He bit her earlobe and she trembled perhaps because it hurt. His force became lighter, but the spoken words were fierce, “If you dare to look for another man, I’ll chop up the adulterer and feed him to the dogs.”
Loredana laughed in exasperation.
He touched her forehead, “My wife isn’t ugly, you’re beautiful when you smile.”
“Eat.” He lifted the bowl up and it wasn’t yet cold. Then she reached out her hand to get it, “I’ll do it myself.”
He didn’t give it but scooped a spoonful of porridge and passed it to her mouth, “I’ll feed you and serve you well, otherwise you always think of cuckolding me every day.”
“Who cuckolds you?” Armand Bernie walked to the door and heard his voice.
Cormac cast him a glance with an expressionless face while Abbott pouted and kept silent.
As there was only Armand alone, Cormac asked, “Where is Abbott?”
“He was arranging the accommodation and I’ll pick you up.” When he went to the office to look for Cormac, Boyce Shawn was taking someone there, so he asked Abbott to make the arrangements.
He had heard from Boyce about what had happened today. Since the online issue had settled while Boyce was busier than him and Abbott had to arrange the accommodation, so he took the job of picking them up.
He stood at the bedside and enjoyed looking at Cormac as it was the first time he saw Cormac serve someone. This was a scene that one could rarely see.
Cormac looked at him and asked Coral, “Do you have something to take?”
She had already packed up all the things. There was nothing much, just the clothes of Loredana and Cormac, and some household items. Inside the big luggage, the clothes were put in it while the household items were put in the small luggage.
“Let him carry it.”
Armand was speechless.
He pulled the luggage over and looked at Loredana, “Did you see that? He’s so inhumane.”
She laughed.
Armand had finished taking the things while Coral held the bouquet of flowers in her arms and stood aside, waiting for Cormac to finish feeding Loredana and leave the hospital.
She had finished all the porridge and some vegetables, but she really couldn’t eat the rest of it.
“Are you full?”
She nodded as she was afraid that he would force her again and said in a hurry, “I don’t feel well if I eat too much.”
He put down the dishes and went to wash his hands. When he came out, Coral had cleared the table, holding a vase and carrying a food box in both hands.
He walked over and bent down his body to carry Loredana, “Let’s go.”
Loredana was thin as he only used twenty percent of his strength to carry her easily. She wrapped her arms around his neck.
Coral followed behind him.
Soon they reached the first floor using lift, he carried her out of the hospital. The car driven by Armand was parked at the roadside, then he opened the door so that Cormac could get into it easily as he carried Loredana.
Just when Cormac was about to put her into the back seat of the car …
“Mr. Mendelsohn.”
A voice came behind him.
Even without turning around, Cormac knew who the person was, but he had no intention of dealing with him. He calmly placed her in the back seat, then closed the car door, as if he didn’t want Charles White to see her.
He walked towards Charles, holding the armrests on both sides of the wheelchair and looking down at him. Charles didn’t move and he tilted his head to look at Cormac. As they locked eyes, it seemed to have invisible sword.
Cormac bit his lips and his sharp eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the fresh, “Mr. White, save your breath, don’t always think about other people’s…”
When he spoke, his gaze caught a glimpse at Charles’s legs. The meaning was self-evident, “My wife dislikes you. Don’t bother anymore.”
What Cormac hated the most was Charles still thinking of Loredana even though he knew that she was married.
Love without regret?
Was he telling others how infatuated he was?
The more he thought about it, the more he became mean and he said mockingly, “Even if she finds another man, Mr. White wouldn’t be ranked.”
Charles clenched his teeth tightly to restrain the change in his facial expression.
His legs were the hardest fact for him to accept.
He lifted his lips, “Is Mr. Mendelsohn afraid as you’re so mean now?”
