Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 184

“There’s a knife wound on his stomach that almost pierced his liver. The wound’s deep, but it’s been sewn up.”

Cordelia’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing about it, and she unconsciously tightened her hold on Zephyr’s hand.

“Don’t worry.” Seth smiled tiredly. “He’s not in a critical state. But he has to be hospitalized for observation right now… Best if someone is with him, so I can give him a second emergency treatment if something happens.”

“Thanks.” Zephyr patted his shoulder. He felt bad for sending Nicholas to Seth, but he did not have a better solution.

Sending Nicholas to a regular hospital would undoubtedly expose his identity, while doctors in regular private clinics might not be as skilled.

The nurse wheeled Nicholas into the hospital ward.

The usually aggressive and brazen man was now pale like a sheet. He was all bandaged up as he lay quietly.

The fragility of life was always felt in such swift moments.

Cordelia could not help the mixed feelings she felt as she looked at Nicholas through the window.

“I wonder when he’ll be able to wake up.”

Zephyr wrapped an arm around her shoulders lightly. He thought of what had happened in the hotel earlier. If it had been other women, they would have been dumbstruck when they saw their husbands carrying in a thug who was bleeding all over in that dire situation.

This woman, however, was smart and calm. She had reacted quickly. Not only had she been composed, but she had also thought of cross-dressing Nicholas to send him out of the hotel.

Zephyr smiled. His gaze was tender and delightful.

Despite that… it was also because she was so smart that her suspicion had been roused with just a bottle of red ink.

Zephyr’s gaze dimmed. Perhaps it was time to tell her the truth about his identity.

“Darling?” Cordelia tugged his sleeve. “Why are you so distracted?”
