Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 821

Chapter 821

Vania was only bruised in her foot and wasn't hurt anywhere else, but Hanson coated her whole foot with the herbal mixture. Not only that, but he even bandaged her foot in several layers.

When she looked at her foot in the end, she almost thought that she actually had a bone fracture. "How am I supposed to wear shoes when you bandage my foot like this?" she asked. After all, her foot was so heavily bandaged that she might not even be able to wear slippers.

"Why do you want to wear shoes?" Hanson asked in reply. She still wants to walk around even when she's so badly injured?

Vania blinked her eyes. "I have to go to work, no?"

"Starting from today, I'll help you keep an eye on your company's affairs. You'll only go back to work when you're fully recovered," Hanson said domineeringly while brooking no refusal. My wife has to stay at home to recuperate from her injury.

Vania replied, "But Lily said that my foot will be alright when I wake up from sleep tomorrow." Lily was a highly-skilled doctor, so treating such a minor wound was easy-peasy for her.

Hanson was rendered speechless. Uh… Is that so? Why didn't I hear that just now? "Our daughter is right, naturally, but that's it for today. You can't move around." Let's leave it until tomorrow, he thought while carrying Vania back to her bedroom. When he laid her down in bed, he gave her a restrained kiss on the forehead.

Vania looked at him somewhat warily, fearing that this man would lose his self-control.

Hanson tickled her nose. "Don't worry, I'm not interested in an invalid."

However, his response told her that he was lying; he seemed to be even more interested in an invalid.

…

Meanwhile, when Thomas returned home, Jasmine immediately exclaimed, "Oh, my God! What happened to you, my dear son?" The former was wearing a white shirt, on which the bloodstain was particularly visible.

"Don't worry, Mom. I was just accidentally hit by a rock while going to the jade mine," Thomas replied lightheartedly with a calm expression.

"I'll get the doctor right away." Jasmine hurried to make a phone call.

"You don't have to, Mom. I've treated my wound. The doctor says I'm fine; the wound is superficial and will heal in a couple of days with the use of medicine," Thomas said, telling her not to make such a huge fuss over such a trifle. Such a wound is no big deal for a guy like me.

Jasmine was still worried, though. She personally applied medicine to his wound before finally agreeing that he didn't have to see a doctor.

Just then, Yvonne asked in puzzlement, "Thomas, why would you go to the jade mine all of a sudden?" Thomas rarely got involved in these things in the past, and there isn't any bad news about the jade mine these days. Why would he go there all of a sudden?



Thomas' eyes flickered for a moment as he didn't want to tell Yvonne the truth. "I've got a collaboration, so I went there to take a look," he replied. Then, without waiting for her to ask him any further questions, he stood up and returned to his room, saying, "I'm going to get changed."

There was nothing wrong with him saying that he wanted to change his clothes, but Yvonne couldn't help finding it odd. In fact, she felt that he had been strange lately.

Thomas returned to his room. After changing his clothes, he lay face down in bed while recalling what had happened during the day. Then, he raised his hand and stared at it in a daze. His heart still went pit-a-pat when he recalled his feelings at the time.

After a while, he finally took out his phone and opened his chat window with Vania. 'Does your foot still hurt? Did you dress your wound on time?' he typed, only to delete the message after hesitating for a while. I'd better go to her company tomorrow to check on her instead, he thought in confusion before drifting off to sleep. He had a dream, in which he hugged Vania tightly…
