Chapter 8: Say Yes to Everything
Back in the Special Needs Department, word had spread about her sister-in-law Fiona’s accidental injury. Lindsey thanked her colleagues for their concern, took her record folder and went upstairs to see Bruce.
He was lying very weakly on the hospital bed, the sunlight came in through the window, his pale face showed an almost transparent texture in the refraction of light and shadow, and a dry, dead air flowed around him.
Lindsey’s heart stalled and vaguely surged with a hint of pity.
His condition was not really suitable for blood donation, but he still insisted. I can’t say how I feel, she is a doctor and knows that there is nothing wrong with this compared to human life, but I am still a little moved.
Just for a moment, Lindsey was soon at peace with herself again. He didn’t save people unconditionally, so they got even.
“Did you just say let me make a condition?” Lindsey stretched his feet and hooked a stool over, and sat down slowly and methodically. “What conditions did you agree to?”
“All of them.” Bruce lifted his head, his dark, deep eyes as calm as a pool of stagnant water.
Lindsey curled her fingers, tapped on the edge of the bed a few times, and fell silent.
If she remembered correctly, the day at the station, Kevin was very afraid of the bodyguards around him. Although she was not sure that he was responsible for her sister-in-law’s injury, she could not afford to be defensive.
If she just left, Warren is often not in L city, sister-in-law’s safety will be a problem.
There is nothing to worry about on this side of the hospital, sister-in-law is very good people, has never made enemies with people. It is difficult to say in private, like today’s incident, not to deal with clear future will not be less.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
For a moment, Lindsey smiled. “Help me find out about my sister-in-law’s injury, and I want you to keep my sister-in-law safe.”
Bruce pursed his lips and inclined his head to look out the door. “Carl!”
The words landed, and Carl appeared behind Lindsey with an expressionless face.
“Find out the cause of Nurse Fiona’s injury.” Bruce glanced at Lindsey in the afterglow, and ordered without a moment’s hesitation. “No matter who it is, tell them that if anyone dares to hit her again in the future, they are against The Grant family.”
“Understood!” Carl glanced at the back of Lindsey’s head with some resentment and left calmly.
Lindsey shrugged, her smiling eyes meeting Bruce’s gaze again. “That’s just number one, there’s more.”
“Go ahead.” Bruce’s face was ancient.
“If your family has a strong opinion of me, you can’t stop me from leaving.” A calculating look came to Lindsey’s eyes. “No matter what I do, you can’t retaliate.”
Bruce nodded again. “Yes.”
“The third and most important rule.” The smile under Lindsey’s eyes deepened. “Any condition I mention, you must agree to.”
Bruce’s starry eyes lifted lightly, his gaze straight at her, the corners of his lips pursed unconsciously.
She is smiling, bright as the stars of the eyes vaguely penetrate the cunning light, obviously abominable to the extreme, knowing that agreed, from now on she wants to leave or stay, they have no way to take her, but he could not say the words of refusal, but ghostly nod.
“Well, you recuperate well, and when my sister-in-law recovers, I will accompany you back.” Lindsey stood up with a widening smile on her face. “I forgot to tell you, it’s in the name of my wife.”
Bruce was stunned, then slowed his face, and his eyes could not help but become gentle.
The time to get lost in the work, Lindsey has fluttered away. The aura of her body like snow like orchid, also dissipated.
For a moment, Bruce felt that the heart seems to follow the empty, tired to close their eyes to sleep. After a few moments, Carl knocked on the door and came in, clearing his throat with a gloomy face. “Checked it out.”
“Well,” Bruce opened his eyes, and his dark eyes flashed vaguely with a murderous intent. “Who.”
“It’s Kevin,” Carl’s face was cold and stern. “He followed Lindsey to the nurses’ station last night.”
“Find all the evidence and send it to your aunt, and don’t do anything else for now.” Bruce closed his eyes again. “Nurse Fiona’s side, arrange two people to covertly protect after we leave.”
Carl touched his nose and wordlessly withdrew.
–.
Lindsey went back to the nurses’ station, finished her work, and stole some time to visit her sister-in-law Fiona.
Lindsey sat down with a guilty look on her face and sadly took her hand. “Sister-in-law, it’s my fault for giving you and your brother trouble.”
“Your brother does not agree, no one dares to force you to marry, do not worry.” Fiona smiled weakly, and a deep love floated under her eyes. “Don’t look at Warren, he doesn’t say much, but he loves you more than he loves me.”
“Jealous, huh?” Lindsey smiled back, knowing that Fiona had misunderstood her meaning, and simply did not mention her injury.
After all, she herself was not sure if it was Kevin’s fault or not. Before the truth is found out, she can’t hate someone based on speculation alone, even if that person is not a good person.
After talking, Warren came over with dinner, Lindsey nodded at him with a smile and slipped away.
Sister-in-law is pregnant, I don’t know how happy the couple is, she’d better not disturb.
A week later, Fiona was discharged from the hospital and took a leave of absence to nurse her baby, and Lindsey did her best to help the nanny take care of her, not mentioning that she was going to B City to take care of Bruce.
The day he left, Warren was in military attire, and his face was covered with reluctance, and he took the initiative to hug Lindsey: “Lindsey, if he dares to bully you, you must fight back!”
“Brother don’t worry, if he dares to bully me, I will definitely beat him to the ground.” Lindsey smiled and laughed, tears fell and followed Carl onto the plane with a determined face.
Her fear of Warren was real, and her reluctance to leave was also real. But once she thought that she could soon go back home to be with her grandfather, she was not so unhappy.
It was noon when she landed in B, the capital of H. Lindsey was submissive from start to finish.
The car left the airport and went on the highway to the city. carl took out his cell phone and called Bruce and told him about the arrival time.
Lindsey, in line with the principle of not asking what you shouldn’t ask, leaned back in her chair with a light expression.
The two of them say they are not in a hurry to have a child, but in reality they are more anxious than anyone else.
The two brothers are still single, and grandpa wants to hold a grandson, so he can only pin his hopes on Warren. If it wasn’t for the accidental injury to her sister-in-law, I’m afraid she wouldn’t have realized she was pregnant.
Besides, grandpa is also more than 80 this year, a year less than a year, she must go back to do her filial piety.
Lindsey can’t help but have a faint smile on her face when she thinks that in a few months, the Song family will have a new baby and Old Mr. Grant will be in a happy mood.
When Lindsey is quiet, her body has a quiet temperament like snow like lotus, delicate features alone is already stunning, but the combination together but inexplicably more a valiant heroic.
From the beginning of the plane, she did not have too much expression on her face, suddenly so a smile, immediately caused the passenger seat of Carl some dazed, panic from the inside rearview mirror to move away from the line of sight.
