Nancy's heart felt heavy as she heard those words.
That was something she had never expected.
She had thought about leaving him in the past, but she never thought those soft words warmed her heart again.
Charles noticed how emotionally unstable Nancy was.
'Well, this little woman must really love me. Otherwise, why would she react the way she did?' Charles thought.
He reached out his hand towards Nancy. He grabbed her hand and rubbed it. "I'll be fine, dear. You don't have to be sad, okay?" he said.
Nancy nodded and took a deep breath.
"I'm not sad. Your eyes got hurt, so you need to have a good rest. Try to go to bed early today," Nancy said as he prepared a bag of ice.
"I won't feel any pain as long as you are by my side, remember?" Charles pulled Nancy into his arms as he spoke.
"You are hurt, Charles. What are you doing?" Nancy withdrew from Charles' hug. She was afraid that she would accidentally touch the man's eyes.
"I told you, I'm fine." Charles took the ice bag from Nanc
aid thoughtfully.
"Of course, dear. We will," Jennie responded. She then looked at Jay and said, "Jay, please go and send Winnie off."
"It's alright, auntie. I see myself out," Winnie refused quickly.
Jay frowned out of annoyance. He never understood those kind of things. 'Why do women complicate simple things?' he thought to himself.
"Let's go, Winnie. I'll send you off," Jay said indifferently.
"All right." After she bid Jennie farewell, Winnie walked out of the ward with Jay.
Right at that moment, Doris arrived.
She hasn't seen Jay for quite a long time. Doris decided to bring some fruits for Landon because it was her day-off.
Winnie found Doris before Jay even did. She stared Doris down with her sharp gaze.
Winnie acted as if she sprained her ankle and shouted as if she were in agony. She was really selling the act. Winnie clung unto Jay's arm in order to seem more helpless.
"What's wrong with you?" Jay asked confusedly. Jay had never thought that things would unfold that way.
