His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 286

When Isla returned after buying breakfast, Mike and Joanna were in Aron's ward. Through the small glass window of the door she saw them sitting beside Aron, wiping tears from their eyes. "Why throw your life away like that, Aron?" they cried. "Why would you go out when you knew you were in poor health? What are we going do if you had an accident?"

They knew that Aron had always been mature and composed. He had mastered his emotions and his mind was ruled by logic and reason. When he steered away from that, it was only because of Isla.

"Sorry, grandma, I won't do such a thing again, " Aron promised, looking at his grandparents apologetically. Yesterday, when he learned that Isla had gone on another blind date, he cut off the drip in the IV infusion attached to his arm. This terrified his grandparents, causing them to stay awake all night.

Although Aron called them as soon as he woke up to reassure them, they did not breathe a sigh of relief until they saw that Aron was safe and sound. "Why didn't you think about our feelings when you left the hospital without permission? Didn't you know what would happen?"

Listening in to their conversation, Isla clenched her hands that she almost dropped the breakfast bag she was holding. She felt partly responsible for the ordeal that Mike and Joanna had to go through.

When Joanna went to see her yesterday, hoping that she and Aron would get back together, she told her that she would never have anything to do with Aron again. Hours later, Aron fainted because of her. Isla didn't know how to explain it to them.

"Grandma, I'm fine. Don't worry, " Aron consoled them. "I know myself. If I don't get Isla back, I'll regret it for the rest of my life."

Hearing this, his grandparents fell into silence. They knew that he liked Isla, but neither of them expected her to be that important to Aron.

Isla, standing at the door, was moved by what Aron just said. For the first time, she didn't want to run away from this thing between them. She realized that she wanted to be with Aron.

Isla entered the ward and said to Aron, "Aron, here's your breakfast. I don't know what you like, so I just bought a few things."

"Thank you, Isla. I like them all, " Aron said. His eyes flickered and a smile lit his face.

"Grandpa Mike, Grandma Joanna, have you two had breakfast yet? I bought enough breakfast for everyone. Please come and partake of it, " Isla thoughtfully called them to join in.

"Don't worry about us, dear Isla, " Joanna smiled and refused. Then she added, "Aron told me you have looked after him all night. We are grateful for what you did. Thank you."

"You're more than welcome, " Isla replied. Then Isla handed Aron a cup of soy milk and sat by his bed, peeling an egg for him. Joanna was pleased with what she saw.

"Grandma Joanna, the doctor said that Aron has to spend one more night here for observation. I'll still be here tonight to take care of him, so you two can go home." Isla told them.

"No, that's not a good idea." Joanna refused the offer. "You've looked after him last night. If you stay another night, you'll tire out."

"Grandma is right, Isla." Aron agreed with Joanna, and looked at Isla lovingly. "Watching over me all night must have been exhausting. I will be fine here alone tonight. You need to go home, rest and get freshened up."

"I'm all right, " Isla insisted. "I'll take you home early tomorrow morning, and then I'll go straight to work."

"Isla, we will be here tonight to take care of Aron." Joanna and Mike didn't think it was okay for Isla to stay here and take care of Aron. "We know that you have your duties at work. Leave Aron in our care and just have a good rest tonight."
