Let's Get Married novel Chapter 181

It seems that he is stroking a puppy with that expression and tone.

Lily tilts her head to evade his touch, but she is then pulled back. Rex covers her whole body with a coat, even without unveiling her neck, and then he says, “Get in the car.”

Lily glanced at the car beside, and then at the man who stands in front of the villa. Suddenly, she reminds of something and feels touched. She hugs Rex with her hands on his shoulders, stands on tiptoe and kisses the man on his thin lips.

It is a just a fleeting kiss, which is as gentle as the touch of a feather that sweeps across one’s heart. Maxx, who stands several steps away, politely shifts his sight. But he is greatly shocked.

The woman raises her head to kiss the man, and the man lowers his head obediently and gently. Such a quick glance leaves a deep impression on Maxx.

Such a happy scene reminds him of Marina, the vulnerable woman who is lying in a sterilized room. No wonder that she would be so radical. If she sees this, she will be painful.

When Maxx is lost in thought, a dark shadow suddenly approaches. He comes to his sense, and finds that it is Rex, so he immediately bows, greeting in a respectful way, “Mr. Rex.”

Rex looks at him with his sharp eyes, asking, “What are you thinking about? You are so enthralled.”

“I am sorry. I was absent-minded just now.” A layer of sweats immediately appears on the forehead of Maxx. Luckily, his head is lowered, so Rex doesn’t find it.

Rex doesn’t ask anymore. He turns his head, looking at the car disappearing from the door of villa, and then he walks toward the villa.

When Maxx comes back to the sterilized room, Marina has woken up. Then Karl’s team also comes. All the men in the team have signed a confidentiality agreement before.

Marina is surrounded by medical workers in white. They conduct various examinations on her. And Marian, who is like a piece of meat on the chopping board, stares at the ceiling with a pair of empty eyes, not caring what they are doing on her. It seems that this is not her body.

When she wakes up, she immediately feels that her body is penetrated by various medical apparatus and instruments. She is very familiar with this feeling, and even becomes apathetic about his. She even feels despairing about her body.

Half an hour later, the medical worker of the team holds a meeting, and Rex also sits in the last row, acting as an auditor. George also attends the meeting through remote video system.

Carl speaks professional and fluent English and detailedly tells all the things happened on today to Doctor George, whose face becomes more and more serious as he listens to Carl’s narration.

The situation is much severer than his imagination.

“How’s her mental state?”

“Not good. She is pessimistic. Although she proactively cooperates with our treatment, she is not optimistic.”

George is a little bit worried, saying, “She hurts herself, and all of you are responsible for her pessimistic mental state!”

All outstanding doctors want money, but what they want the most is that every patient can be cured under their treatment. He has gone back to his country, and they let Marina hurt herself in such a short time, which makes George annoyed.

Although he is clear that no one wants this to happen, but someone must answer for this.

Carl frowns, saying, “Maybe there is another reason.”

“What kind of reason? Would she hurt herself without any reason?” George feels that this assumption is quite ridiculous when he says it out. And Maxx mocks at himself when hearing this.

The atmosphere of the meeting turns gloomy. Rex, who doesn’t say a word in the meeting, suddenly asks, “She once told me that she wants to live with me, will this affect the treatment?”

“If this is her will, then it will not affect her treatment.” George replies, with his tone becoming serious, and then he adds, “The patient’s mood is crucial to the treatment. You’d better accept her request, if…”
