Chapter 449 Does It Still Count?
This was good news.
It didn't take long for Matthew to be transferred to the VIP ward where the family members could visit.
When Roseane and the others followed him, Matthew was still awake. He answered a few questions asked by Owen. Except for his pale face, he looked quite energetic.
Tears streamed down Roseane's face. She threw herself at Matthew, but was stopped by Owen halfway.
"Be careful. Don't use too much strength. He can't stand being hit now, especially the place where he had a surgery."
After being reminded by Owen, Roseane broke out in a cold sweat.
She was too reckless just now.
Matthew tutted and glanced at Owen impatiently.
"It's just a hug. What can happen? I'm not made of paper."
Owen couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Now, he knew how to protect her wife. He used to be indifferent in the past and it showed that he really had two faces.
Owen's face darkened. He took out a document and handed it to Beau.
"The operation is over, and you're all right. Mission accomplished. This is the follow-up treatment plan, and there are relevant things to take precautio of. Look at it carefully."
Originally, he wanted to give it to Roseane. However, seeing that she carefully went over to hug Matthew, she was probably not in the mood to care about it now. He could only pass it to his uncle Beau.
Beau didn't refuse and took the document to read.
"It's all thanks to you that the operation is successful. Do you have anything else you want?"
Owen said, "The treatment fee is enough. The experimental subject is enough for the time being."
Eliza was puzzled when she heard this. "What experimental subject?"
It was only then that Beau remembered that he had forgotten to tell her about this. He was worried that Eliza would think that he was not a human being. Beau coughed and covered it up. "It's nothing. It's just some experimental equipment."
He stared at Owen with warning eyes.
Owen understood and nodded. "Yes, that's it."
"If there's nothing else. I'm leaving now. If you have any questions, just ring the bell."
Beau nodded. After Owen left, he saw that Eliza was still looking at him and smiled at her.
"Uncle, aunt, thank you so much this time."
Just as Eliza and Beau looked at each other, Matthew's voice came from the hospital bed.
If it hadn't been for Beau's timely appearance, Matthew wouldn't have known what would happen.
Perhaps there would never be a day for him to speak openly to Roseane. Then, he would forever miss each other.
As soon as he thought of this possibility, Matthew felt a dull pain in his heart, which was more painful than the wound after his operation.
Beau and Eliza's attention was diverted. Beau glanced at Matthew and shook his head expressionlessly.
"You don't have to thank me."
"How can I not thank you? When I'm better, I'll hold a wedding ceremony with Roseane. At that time, I'll invite you to be our witness."
Beau: "That's not necessary."
Eliza smiled from the side. "Are you really going to hold a wedding ceremony? This is quite good. At least you've made up for a regret."
As she spoke, she glanced at Beau but did not say anything else.
For some reason, Beau felt that he had been hinted at. He hesitated and said, "Why don't we look at the date too? When the time comes, the four of us can hold a wedding together?"
"No." Eliza quickly refused.
Beau: "..."
She wanted it very much, but why was he rejected?
Beau couldn't figure it out. Beside him, Liliana was speechless as he looked at his father.
Wasn't he usually very smart? Why was he so slow at this moment?
Which girl didn't want a unique wedding? Daddy's suggestion didn't show how much he valued her mommy at all. No wonder her mommy would refuse.
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become strange, Roseane quickly came out to smooth things over.
"We should thank Mr. Valentine and Eliza. When you were still in the quarantine ward, your parents came to the hospital..."
Roseane told Matthew everything that had happened today, along with Hollie's real identity.
Matthew's face darkened instantly.
"Sure enough, I used to think that my father didn't pay much attention to me. Now I only found out the reason. It turns out that he has another daughter he cares about. Judging from Hollie's character, she should be favored by my father."
The rest of the people present did not speak.
"The first time I saw her, I didn't like her." Matthew laughed at himself. "It seems that she didn't come to the hospital to help Gellert. She probably came for me."
Matthew saw it clearly.
Beau reminded him, "Jory and I have already made a decision. We will leave the company and the family property to you and your mother. Gian will definitely not give up. He will probably find trouble with you."
Matthew snorted and said, "He can come and see me. Does he think I still be soft-hearted?"
Why should he care too much about a cold and irresponsible father?
"You just finished the operation, and you are still focused on recovering in the hospital during this period of time. I will keep an eye on the company first. Your mother will come to sign the agreement tomorrow, and then we can discuss again."
"Thank you, uncle."
Beau shook his head. "If you want to thank me, take good care of Roseane and yourself in the future."
"Don't make any more trouble. It's the best reward for me."
After that, he turned his head and took Eliza's hand.
"Roseane, I'll have to trouble you to stay and take care of him tonight. As for Mariam, I'll arrange for my men and Oliver to take turns to guard her. When she leaves the quarantine ward, I'll arrange someone to take care of her."
Roseane naturally nodded. "Okay, thank you, Uncle."
Knowing that she still had a lot to say to Matthew in private, Beau and the others didn't want to stay. After saying what they should say, he took Eliza and the children home.
When they got home, they felt that this matter had completely come to an end. Eliza was in a very good mood.
She cooked a scrumptious meal. The whole family ate their fill and went back to their rooms to rest.
After Beau took a shower, he went over and hugged Eliza.
"What you said before, does it still count?"
Eliza's face immediately turned red and she turned around to glare at him.
But in Mr. Valentine's eyes, it seemed to be a temptation, which made him involuntarily tighten his lower abdomen.
Beau's voice became hoarse. He picked her up and placed her on the bed before pressing his body against hers.
That night, Mr. Valentine's body began to teach Eliza what absurd was.
After a night of torment, Eliza didn't get up the next day.
Naturally, she did not go to the hospital to see them sign the agreement. When she woke up, it was almost noon, and there was no one at home.
Beau worked in the company, while the children went to kindergarten. After Eliza finished her meal, she finally went to the gym in silence.
She was about to get on the show soon, so she had to get fit. Otherwise, if she was defeated by Hollie, she would be really embarrassed.
After practicing for a while, her cell phone rang. It was from Graciana.
"Eliza, are you going to make a comeback? Can I be your agent?"
