- Chapter 663
- But knowing that Ellie no longer hated Alex, Nancy felt a little relieved,
- The two of them returned to the ward.
- When Alex’s parents learned that Alex was fine, they asked Barry to stay with Alex, and the two went to see Orion.
- Not long after the two left the ward, Alex woke
- up.
- The first thing he said after waking up was, “Why am I in the hospital?”
- Ellie stood by the bedside, observing Alex’s reaction from above,
- “You fainted at the entrance of the residence, and I brought you to the hospital. Do you remember? Ellie asked.
- Alex lay in the bed, and his face gradually darkened.
- He stared at Ellie and asked cautiously, “I haven’t gotten married and had children yet. I’m not having some terminal illness, am I?”
- Ellie frowned. “You’re perfectly healthy. There’s nothing wrong with you.”
- Alex grabbed Ellie’s hand and said pitifully, “I can take it. Just tell me the truth.”
- Ellie said, “You’re totally fine.”
- Confirming that Alex didn’t recall anything, Ellie returned his phone, lighter, and that crooked bracelet.
- Seeing that bracelet, Alex reflexively reached for his trouser pocket.
- One of them was lying in the bed, and the other was standing by the bed. They looked at each other. Then Ellie took out her car keys.
- She said, “Mr. Warren, are you looking for these?”
- Alex was stunned for a moment when he saw the car keys in Ellie’s hand. Then he came back to his senses and said, “Why would I? They’re not my car keys.”
- Ellie said, “But I found them in your pocket.”
- “Nonsense,” Alex refused to admit it. “Why would your car keys be in my pocket?”
- “Maybe they got into your pocket themselves.” Ellie didn’t want to argue with him. “Since you’re fine, I’ll leave first.”
- Before Ellie could move, her wrist was grasped by Alex.
- Ellie looked back, and Alex said, “Are you going to leave me here alone?”
- Ellie said, “What else do you need, Mr. Warren?”
- Alex suddenly tightened his grip on Ellie’s wrist and pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed.
- He got up and sat down next to Ellie, putting his hands on her shoulders. “I fainted, but my brain was fine, Dr. Thompson. You said you’d treat me to lunch. You forgot?”
- Ellie didn’t know what to say.
- After a brief hesitation, Ellie took out her phone. “You need to stay in the hospital for 24 hours of observation before you can be discharged. I’ll order you takeout.”
- *Save it first. You can treat me when I leave the hospital.” Alex snatched Ellie’s phone and put it under his leg. Then he took out the bracelet he had painstakingly braided.
- “As we agreed, once I make one for you, you’ll date me,” Alex said as he put the bracelet on Ellie’s wrist.
- Ellie withdrew her hand back forcefully. “Mr. Warren, this bracelet cannot be uglier. Have you ever seen a bracelet like this?”
- Alex said, “Just wear it first. I’ll keep practicing and make you a nicer one.”
- Alex knelt on the bed, put his arm around Ellic, and domineeringly put the bracelet on her wrist.
- Ellie said, “Mr. Warren, we’re not right for each other.”
- Alex held Ellie’s hands so tightly that she couldn’t break free, so she could only glare at him.
- es and became serious.
- Alex smiled with satisfaction. He met Ellie’s eyes
- He looked into her eyes and said, “Don’t dismiss me because I’ve been in jail and I’m older than you. I won’t dismiss you for having a past relationship and children as well. Let’s give it a try. Maybe we’ll be a good match.”
