Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 289

“His hand is burnt,” Monica reproached, “Can you please leave? I’ll keep you updated on everything once we sort things out. There’s nothing you can do here. We even need to take care of you.” She then turned to someone and instructed, “Can someone please bring Ms. Tanner back to her room?”

“I’m not going anywhere. I need to know if he’s okay.” I held on to the table and shook my head profusely.

“Stop making things difficult for us! There’s nothing you can do. You can’t even see! Who knows if you’ll hurt Chris again?” It was Julia speaking this time. It was obvious that she was infuriated. I wanted to defend myself, but there was nothing I could say. So, I fell into silence and let the nurse take me out.

For the past two days, the nurse had been taking care of me, making sure I was able to get through the day doing everything I wanted to. This was the first time ever since I lost my sight that I felt as if I was actually handicapped.

Gripped by frustration and resentment, I rubbed my eyes hard, trying to regain my sight, but I still could not see a thing. At last, I sat back in my wheelchair in despair.

I would not be able to take care of Christopher in this state. Although he would still love me the same, I felt brazen to still covet staying with him given my inconvenient situation now.

Bitterness gripped me at this thought.

After some time, I attempted to get out of the wheelchair to go over to the bed, but because I had remained seated for too long, my legs felt numb and weak. I slumped to the ground and sat there without moving, letting my disability sink in.

A knock came from the door, but I did not reply. After a brief silence, someone opened the door, and rapid footsteps followed. “Are you okay, Ms. Tanner?”

It was Monica. Although the woman disliked me, she was still kind at heart. At her question, I nodded my head, saying, “I’m fine.”

“Why don’t you just call for help? The nurses are all outside.” She helped me to the bed, and I pulled the blanket over without saying a word.
