“Why the heck is this happening?”
Cornelia was puzzled. She was planning to call Dr. Lester in for a check, but noticed that her hand was
firmly held by Marcus.
She tried to move slightly, but Marcus held her even tighter
“Mr. Marcus, if you’re awake, cut the act, okay? Don’t scare us like this,” Cornelia suspected Marcus
was playing possum because she didn’t understand how a comatose person could hold her hand so
lightly
She extended her other hand and gently pinched the back of his hand. She used a certain amount of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtforce, if he was pretending, he should have reacted
However, Marcus didn’t respond at all, leaving Cornelia utterly disappointed.
As for why he suddenly opened his eyes, held her hand, and called her name, Cornelia, not being a
doctor, couldn’t understand. She needed to get Dr. Lester to check on him
right away.
Cornelia tried again to free her hand, but still to no avail. Even with all her strength, she couldn’t break
free from Marcus‘ grip.
He hadn’t woken up, then why was his grip so strong?
With no other options, all Cornelia could do was stay by his side, literally not moving an inch; she
couldn’t even go to the restroom.
Luckily, she hadn’t drunk much water today…
Meanwhile, Zack and Abigail were still waiting in the parking lot. With Cornelia yet to return, they
couldn’t leave at ease.
They had wanted to go into the hospital, but were blocked by several burly men at the entrance.
Zack angrily said, “This is a hospital, meant to serve patients. Who the hell are you to stop us?”
The men blocked the entrance, completely ignoring his complaints.
Abigail quickly dragged Zack away, “I noticed that we’ve been waiting here for so long and aside from
us, not a single person has gone in or out. I guess Marcus‘ condition must be really bad, that’s why
they’re so strict about letting outsiders in.”
Zack asked, “What the heck happened to Marcus?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAbigail shook her head, “I have no idea. I just heard that tall guy say Marcus‘ condition is serious.”
Zack said worriedly. “Could it be that Marcus is pretending to be sick just to keep Cornelia with him?”
Abigail shook her head and then nodded, “It’s possible. I read a once where the male lead got
the female lead back by pretending to be sick…”
Zack angrily interrupted Abigail, “What the hell! You’re still thinking about s? Novels are all made
up, just fantasies created for girls like you. There’s not so much fairytale stuff in real life. What I’m
worried about now is that Marcus, knowing Cornelia wants a divorce, might do something drastic and
harm her.”
Shaken by Zack’s words, Abigail quickly shook her head, “No way, absolutely no way. Marcus would
never hurt Nelly.”
Zack coldly said, “Marcus, that heartless bastard, could send his own father to jail. What else can’t he
do?”
