Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2168
Despite her silence, she was also too embarrassed to voice her thoughts.
“Hmph, what’s wrong with my age? Although I’m old, I’m still fully capable of providing care. Besides, you’ve heard Caiden. He’s happier when I’m around,” Delilah said as she patted her chest with pride.
Immediately, the ward’s atmosphere turned silent and awkward. The trio glanced at each other with a look of hesitation painted across their faces.
All of a sudden, a woman burst into the ward. “Caiden!” she cried out.
Why is she here? This is bad! Quickly, Caiden lay down and pulled the blankets over his body to cover himself.
“Caiden, what happened to you? Did you get into an accident? Is it painful? How is your body?” Noelle blabbered on in a string of endless questions. Her barrage of questions left Delilah dazed.
What sort of relationship did these two have? Caiden was fooling around with other women too? A glimmer of suspicion began to spark in Delilah’s gaze.
“How are you feeling? Are you cold? I’ll bring another blanket for you,” Noelle fussed as she grabbed an extra blanket and tossed it over Caiden’s body.
His expression contorted into one of discomfort as he coughed weakly.
Is she trying to smother me to death?
“It’s alright, I’m fine. I just need to take a nap and rest,” Caiden interjected hurriedly.
Hearing his words, Noelle made her way towards him and took a seat on the bed. Gently, she reached out her hand and ruffled his hair. In an attempt to avoid her touch, Caiden turned away and nearly tumbled off the bed.
“Caiden, I missed you so much…” Noelle whined petulantly.
It hasn’t even been five minutes, but she had begun crying.
Seeing the scene before them, Caiden’s visitors couldn’t help but feel resigned. Delilah reached out her hand and tugged on Joan’s sleeve to drag her outside. On the other hand, Noelle sprawled herself across the bed as she sobbed profusely. Her bold actions left him stunned and speechless.
