Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Telling the World About It

The following morning, as the sun began its ascent, the man lying in the hospital bed stirred slightly.

His eyelids fluttered like delicate butterfly wings, and after a brief moment, Nathael slowly opened his

eyes.

Across from him, Maggie was seated in a chair beside the bed, her head tilted as she dozed lightly.

Nathael paused, then shifted his gaze towards her.

Her face, small and pale, bore two faint scratches, lending her a weary yet serene appearance.

Nathael couldn’t resist reaching out to gently brush her hair.

Sensing his movement, Maggie awoke abruptly, sitting up to meet Nathael’s gaze. “You’re awake… How are you feeling?” she inquired.

“I’m okay. Come, lie down beside me.” Nathael’s voice was husky as he made space for her on the bed.

“You should drink some water first.” Maggie poured a glass of warm water, her expression filled with concern. “Do you want me to call the doctor to check on you?”

“No need. It’s not serious. I know my body,” Nathael reassured her softl

Upon hearing this, Maggie stared at him incredulously, tears welling up in her eyes.

Not serious….

Not serious?!

How could he say that? If this is not serious, then what is?

Is a broken finger not serious enough?

Watching her eyes redden as she fought back tears, Nathael felt a pang of worry. He propped himself up and reached out to grab her by the wrist and gently pull her closer.”

“Why are you crying? I’m really fine.”

Maggie turned away and remained silent, unable to bear the sight of his injured finger.

The severed finger had been reattached, but it had to go through a long period of rehabilitation and would never regain its nimbleness.

“Are you upset?” Nathael asked gently, but Maggie remained silent as she sniffled, her mood low.

Suddenly, Nathael took a sharp breath.

“What’s the matter?” Maggie asked, alarmed by his expression.

Nathael frowned, his face paling slightly.

“Is something wrong? Should I call the doctor?”

Chapter 294 Telling the World About it

Maggic moved to leave the room, but Nathael grabbed her wrist and held her back.

He had a cold demeanour and sharp features. His grip tightened around Maggie’s hand as he spoke in a low voice, “My heart hurts.”

Maggie was stunned. “What’s wrong with your heart? Why would it hurt?”

Anxious thoughts flooded Maggie’s mind. She hadn’t heard anything about heart problems from the doctor!

Maggie’s eyes welled up in a rush. Then Nathael spoke, “My heart hurts because you’re ignoring me.”

Maggie snapped back, frustrated.

“Nathael! How dare you trick me!”

Nathael raised an eyebrow calmly. “No, it really hurts.”

Maggie was furious, feeling like she was storming out and slamming the door. But she couldn’t do it, so she just glared at him. Her almond eyes were slightly widened, tinged with redness, as if tears were about to fall, yet she held them back.

Nathael pressed his lips firmly against hers and pulled her onto the bed.

Maggie turned her head away, warning, “Don’t touch me. Careful of your wound.”
