Chapter 246
Carlos was amused by the shy and annoyed expression on her face. He bowed his head and kissed her forehead softly before whispering,
“Honey, I’ll go to the hospital with you, but I think I deserve a reward for the trouble.”
Hearing him call her honey again, Debbie couldn’t help smiling and taunted quietly, “And what reward does this child want?”
“This, of course.” He pulled her into his arms and kissed her deeply on the lips. Nothing else could be heard anymore in the room except for the heavy breathing of the two.
Some time later, Debbie walked out of Carlos’ room again with burning cheeks, looking definitely rumpled. She fetched a mask from her bedroom and asked Carlos to put it on.
Just as they were about to Leave, Debbie reminded him to put on a pair of sunglasses too. After that, she took a glance at him and decided that everything was finally set now. They Left the villa and headed for the hospital.
Emmett had already made an appointment for them with the doctor. In the consulting room, the doctor looked at Carlos’ wound carefully and changed his dressing. It took about two hours to complete the process, after which, they left the doctor’s consulting room. Debbie had been under the impression that they would be heading back to the villa immediately, but to her surprise, Carlos was holding her hand and leading her to the inpatient department.
“Where are we going?” she asked in confusion.
“The inpatient department. Megan was hospitalized and is being kept under observation.”
Hearing Megan’s name, Debbie didn’t respond and just followed him silently.
Hardly had they reached the door of the ward before they heard the sound of Megan’s laughter emanating cheerfully from inside, in stark contrast to the hospital’s general ambiance. At that point, Debbie noticed an evident smile on her husband’s face, and secretly, made a face in disapproval.
Walking inside, they noticed that Damon and Wesley were already there.
Megan was sitting on the edge of the bed, giggling at Damon’s jokes.
Her eyes brightened when she saw Carlos and Debbie. She ran towards
Carlos, calling in a cheerful voice, “Ah, Uncle Carlos, Uncle Carlos, you are here. Are you okay? Does it still hurt?” Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing her trotting over, Carlos released Debbie’s hand and spread his arms to catch the girl.
“Mmm, I’m fine. But you be careful. You shouldn’t do anything strenuous right now.”
“I’m fine too. But Uncle Wesley won’t allow me to Leave the hospital,” the girl complained as she buried herself in his arms.
“Now, now, no complaints. Uncle Wesley is doing that for your own good.” Carlos pulled her out of his arms and rebuked her, “Aunt Debbie is here too. I didn’t hear you greet her.”
As if she had just seen Debbie, Megan put on an embarrassed look and apologized, “Hi, Aunt Debbie. I’m sorry. I was too worried about Uncle
Carlos. He was wounded because of me and I feel so bad about it.”
Debbie tried hard to suppress the discomfort in her heart.
“Don’t.
Uncle Carlos did the right thing in protecting you. After all, your parents saved his life,” she replied flatly.
“Ah, so Uncle Carlos told you about it?”
