Chapter 1672 Lucas' gaze hardened. "Stop talking nonsense, and move out of the way right now!" Sunny was scared to death, but he did not move. Needless to say, he was scared stiff.
Lucas was at the end of his patience. He pushed Sunny to the floor and opened the door to see Corinne sitting on the edge of the hospital bed, feeding Maxwell some soup. The scene was so idyllic that Lucas thought he was imagining things, and the anger on his face gradually faded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSunny, too, was shocked when he saw the scene after getting up from the floor.
Corinne did not want to visit Maxwell, yet she was actually feeding him soup at that moment.
Corinne did not do it because she had forgiven Maxwell, but because she could not bear to see how pitiful he looked when he tried to feed himself with trembling hands. There was even blood seeping out from the bandage on his wrists.
After snapping out of his shock, Lucas turned and glared at Sunny. "I told you to not call her, didn't 1?" Sunny laughed awkwardly while rubbing the back of his head. "Well, | didn't call her... But | did go pick her up at her place.” Lucas scoffed. "You think you're so smart, huh?" Sunny did not dare to say anything after that.
Lucas strode to the bed, took the half-eaten bowl of soup from Corinne’s hand, and placed it on the bedside table. "You don't have to feed him. He can starve if that's what he wants." After glancing at him, she stood up slowly and said, "Perfect timing, Mister Lucas. | was just about to leave. Do take good care of your father.” Corinne started walking out of the ward, but Lucas rested his hand gently on her head and said, "Wait outside for me. I'll give you aride home." She got here with Sunny's car, so she did need to get a ride from someone if she wanted to go home. As to whether that someone was Lucas or Sunny, it did not really matter to her.
She nodded and went out silently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Corinne went out, Lucas looked down at Maxwell condescendingly.” So, do you still want to die now?" he spoke with a hint of sarcasm.
Maxwell looked at him quietly with a self-deprecating smile. "I... | still want to see your mother." Lucas found him so preposterous that he actually burst out laughing. After all, Emily would not even see her own son, so why would she want to see her ex-husband? "In your dreams! But | warn you, you better not cause trouble for the family or make Grandma and Grandpa worry about you again!"
Maxwell nodded wanly. "Okay, you have my word | won't do anying, stupid again. You should send Corinne home now. Don't keep her waiting. Come back again tomorrow." Lucas scoffed. "Are you telling me or her to come back again tomorrow?" Maxwell smiled wryly. "Both of you. Happy?"
Lucas smirked. "You want her to come back again tomorrow? Do you know how long it took me to make her warm up to me? She still refuses to acknowledge me as her brother! And this is all your fault!"
Maxwell looked down in shame. | know this is all my fault...."Then stop causing US trouble and take care of yourself!" said Lucas coldly. After that, he strode out of the ward.
Maxwell looked at his retreating figure, slowly closed his eyes, and sighed deeply.
