Chapter 519 A Misunderstanding
This time, Evelyn almost could hear her heart beating, but she still chose to deny it.
"I'm not blind. Can't I see it?"
At this time, Marty held Evelyn's hand again.
For a moment, Evelyn didn't know what to do, so she lowered her head and chose to avoid him.
Marty was on the verge of breaking down. Why was Evelyn unwilling to admit that she had feelings for him?
How difficult would it be to admit it?
"Evelyn!"
Evelyn had been struggling, as if she didn't want Marty to touch her at all.
At this time, Jeffrey also got the news that Evelyn was hospitalized.
He immediately stopped working and rushed to the hospital.
In fact, although Jeffrey seemed to be a married couple with Evelyn on the surface, only he and Evelyn knew very well that their relationship was just contractual.
At that time, Evelyn needed money, while Jeffrey needed a wife.
So by chance, they became husband and wife, each taking what they needed.
In such a circumstance, the two of them should treat each other respectfully and should not interfere with each other's life.
However, Jeffrey did not want that. He had long fallen in love with Evelyn, but he did not dare to reveal his true feelings to her. He knew that she did not like him at all.
Moreover, he also felt that he was quite satisfied with the way he got along with Evelyn. He didn't want to push too hard and destroy their relationship in the end.
Judging from Evelyn's character, Jeffrey knew that she would choose to avoid him if he ever expressed his feelings towards her.
Therefore, Jeffrey chose to leave things as they were and hid his love for her in his heart.
But today, he really did not expect that Evelyn would be admitted to the hospital due to an accident.
Now Jeffrey was like a cat on a hot tin roof.
He hurriedly put on his coat and ran out of the company before he rushed to the hospital.
When he finally arrived at the hospital, he got out of the car and ran to the hospital front desk without even locking his car.
"Hello, may I ask if there is any injured lady named Evelyn? Can you help me check which ward she is in?"
Jeffrey panted heavily.
Looking at the nervous man in front of her, the receptionist quickly told him the ward.
"Thank you. Thank you so much."
After Jeffrey found out the ward number, he quickly thanked the receptionist before running straight to the elevator.
In the quiet corridor of the hospital, there were the sounds of his rapid footsteps.
When he finally came to the door of the ward, Jeffrey stood outside the door tidying up his clothes and calming himself down.
After all, he couldn't let Evelyn see how pathetic he looked right now. He had to keep his image perfect in front of her.
After getting ready, he wore a smile before he opened the door.
He hoped that Evelyn would be able to see his smile at her first glance.
But he didn't expect that there was another man in Evelyn's ward.
Marty!
And what surprised him even more, was that Marty was holding Evelyn in his arms from his angle.
Jeffrey suddenly froze on the spot.
They...
What the hell were they doing?
"Let me go quickly! Let me go!"
At this time, Evelyn's scream could be heard.
Jeffrey took another look at them carefully and saw that Evelyn was struggling in Marty's arms.
It turned out that Marty was forcing Evelyn.
Seeing this scene, Jeffrey didn't even know whether he was lending a helping hand for a friend in need, or he got jealous. All he knew that he must step forward and stop all this.
"What are you doing?"
Jeffrey quickly walked forward and grabbed Marty's hand, which had been holding Evelyn's hand down all the time.
At this time, Marty curiously turned his head to see who it was, and then roared right away, "It's none of your business."
Originally, Jeffrey only wanted to stop them, but he didn't expect that Marty would say such a thing.
This immediately sent Jeffrey flying off the handle.
After all, he was Evelyn's husband, albeit nominally. How could he say that it was none of his business?
"Let her go!"
Marty was immediately pulled away by Jeffrey.
"Don't you see that she's a patient? Open your eyes wide and see. Who am I? Do you still think this is none of my business?"
Jeffrey pointed his fingers at Marty. As he spoke, the veins on his neck bulged.
Evelyn, who was suddenly released from his grip, was still sitting on the bed in a daze. She had not realized what was going on.
Marty didn't say anything but laughed coldly.
At this time, he suddenly remembered that Jeffrey in front of him was Evelyn's husband, and the two of them were husband and wife. How ridiculous it was for him to stand here now...
"Why don't you speak? Weren't you so arrogant just now?"
Afraid that Marty would do something to Evelyn, Jeffrey stood in front of Evelyn to protect her and questioned Marty.
"Nothing." Marty didn't want to argue with the man in front of him anymore. He just stood there silently.
At this time, Jeffrey quickly sat on the edge of the bed to see how Evelyn was.
"Are you alright?"
At this time, Evelyn was in a panic because of what had happened just now, and there were still tears in the corner of her eyes.
So when Jeffrey questioned her, Evelyn did not answer him.
"Why are you crying? Did that b*stard bully you? Tell me, I definitely will not let him off."
Jeffrey knew that the arrogant man in front of him was definitely not a good guy.
Looking at Evelyn who was crying, Jeffrey felt extremely sorry for her.
After all, he had witnessed clearly what happened when he entered the ward.
"Since someone has come to take care of you, I'll leave first."
Marty could not bear to see Jeffrey and Evelyn being lovey-dovey in front of him, so he could only say this and then turned to leave immediately.
A trace of loneliness could be seen from his receding figure.
"I'm telling you, next time, if I find out that you're bullying her, I won't spare you!"
Seeing Marty leaving like this, Jeffrey sat on the hospital bed pointing at him with his finger, warning him.
Jeffrey could not bear to see Evelyn being hurt like this.
"It's okay. Don't cry. Have a good rest. I've asked him to leave. It won't happen again."
Jeffrey closed the door of the ward and poured a glass of hot water for Evelyn. He handed it to her while comforting her.
