Bedmates Soulmates novel Chapter 312

Oh, that was nothing,Austyn smirked. Just a couple of superficial wounds. But you, you were shot through the chest. Most people would be six feet under by now,! 

I got lucky.Gideon gritted his teeth

That you did. What did the doctors say?‘ 

The usual. No strenuous activity. Plenty of fluids. Blah blah, I’ll be back on my feet in no time

Good to Imow

Kira turned her head back and forth as the two men chatted

It was a civil, almost amicable, chat

Which amazed her

She was half expecting them to start trading insults 

But the two of them sounded like they were familiar with each other

Speaking of fluidsGideon loolood at Kira. I really enjoyed your chicken soup yesterday. It was out of this world” 

His eyes came to rest on her empty hands 

Kira felt his gaze and his silent question

She shuffled her feet, feeling a tad guilty

She had not had the time to cook today

She didn’t even bring the obligatory fruit basket

It’s my fault.Austyn brol the awkward silence. We went to bed late last night and overslept this morning, after you know. She did tell me she needed to bring some soup today, but we were in a rush and completely forgot” 

Gideon gripped the sheets under him

The message in Austyn’s words was loud and clear

He was showing off 

And he was warning Gideon 

-Kira was now his wife

Gideon shouldn’t get any ideas

A smile slowly spread across Gideon’s face

He shrugged nonchalantly. That’s too bad.” 

Austyn returned the smile

He rifled Kira’s hair. Don’t worry. If you like the chicken soup so much, I’ll ask her to bring you some tomorrow.” 

Kira dodged his hand

She wanted to move away but his arm was fastened around her waist

She detected the weird vibe between the two men

They were talking about soup, but not just soup

What the hell was going on here

Last night, Austyn stomped off after she took a call from Gideon 

But he was acting so chummy with Gideon now, it confused her

And Gideon was acting strange, too

Austyn said, Your assistant said you haven’t had lunch yet. Can you walk? The hospital cafeteria is just downstairs. Shall we grab a bite to eat

Kira stared at Austyn 

They had brunch 

Than two hours ago

He couldn’t possibly be hungry again so soon

Kira tugged at his sleeve

Austyn didn’t respond

Kira pinched his arm, a silent message for him to behave himself

If Austyn felt any pain, he hid it well 

He pulled Kira into his arms and said in a breezy voice, Dear, I didn’t eat much at lunch. Do you want to come with me to the cafe?! Kira was at a loss for words

Austyn was acting so out of character right now, it was surreal

Dear?Austyn pinched her cheek lightly. What do you think?‘ 

Kira picked up the slight change in his tone in that last word

It was a warning

She said immediately, Sure, okay, yeah, whatever you want.” 

Her answer pleased him

Austyn rewarded her with a bright smile. Good girl.” 

Then he leaned in and planted a kiss on her forehead, in full view of Gideon and Martin

Kira was so nonplussed by his sudden display of affection that she didn’t know how to react. She just stood there in a daze

A lood cracking sound jolted her back to the present

She looked up in shock

Gideon had a water glass in his hand

Well, he had twothirds of a water glass in his hand

The rest of it lay on the sheets in shards

Blood dripped from his palm, staining the shards in bright red

Gideon!Kira rushed to his side

Martin an

in ran out of the room in search of a nurse

There was a long gash in Gideon’s hand

It almost cut across his entire palan

Blond was still oozing out 

Kina looked around anxiously

She grabbed a towel from the bedside table and pressed it down on the wound, hope it seemaki 

She tried not to form 

The Current Husband Vs The Exboyfriend 

He leaned forward so Kira’s face and his were just inches apart

Kira didn’t notice

I’m fine.” 

You’re not fine! You’re bleeding!Kira looked away

She couldn’t stand the sight of blood

Are you worried about me?” 

‘Of course! How can you be so clumsy?” 

He was still recovering from a gunshot wound

A deep cut like this was going to require stitches

Gideon stared at the side of her face, smiling 

Austyn stood, fuming silently

Martin returned with a nurse in tow

She cleaned the wound and dressed it

Kira stepped aside, watching with a worried look on her face. She breathed a sigh of relief when the bleeding finally stopped
