To her, Ewan didn't live up to her expectations. Although he looked outstanding, she knew that her son was protected too well to put up a front for their family. Therefore, they decided to have him engaged with Nova. To Maggie, Nova was good girl who was determined and decisive, the opposite of Ewan. She hoped that Nova could help foster their family with Ewan. And now, her plan was destroyed by Ella. She hated Ella's trick like her mother's, and blamed her son for getting seduced by sex. Because she had been unpleased with their marriage and fed up with Ella's recklessness, Maggie used up her patience.
Ewan frowned at seeing her, asking, "She goes to the washroom. Mom, why are you here?"
In case of being surrounded by onlookers there, Maggie tried to keep calm and asked in a low voice, "I am concerned with Nova."
Ewan kept quiet. At the moment he knew that Nova had a car accident, he wanted to go to the hospital but he finally didn't because he was not Nova's boyfriend but Ella's husband. Then he visited the Graham instead. Actually he was not sure whether he still loved Nova or not and he became upset about everything, even sick of the way Ella behaved. He now often treated Ella with irony and mockery.
"Not too bad. She was protected," replied Ewan.
Maggie shot a glance at him, "If you were not so stupid, Nova wouldn't fall in love with other men."
"But she doesn't love anyone," Ewan interrupted, "Mom, please avoid that topic. I am now Ella's husband so I hope that you won't compare her with Nova even if you don't like her."
Maggie was a bit annoyed at his words and turned away.
Ella happened to come back and notice Maggie there. She smiled apologetically and said, "Hello Mom. I seem to suffer from diarrhea.I am so sorry to have you wait so long, Darling."
Ewan shook his head and hurried her, "It's your turn."
Ella smiled and whispered, "Try to please Mom for me."
Ewan smiled and helped her in.
Maggie was not satisfied at what Ewan did, and when she turned around, she received a message. After she clicked on it, she found a file of photo which she always treated as an advertisement and deleted at once. But this time, she downloaded it in a short time. Looking at the photo, she became so rigid and enraged that Ewan noticed her change.
"What happened, Mom?"
Maggie put back her phone, looked at where Ella was, and said repressively, "I have to go. Take care of your wife."
It seemed that her last five words were full of annoyance, and Ewan was confused.
When the nurse left, Jason had no patience again. He withdrew the needle and said, "Eric!"
Eric suddenly had a nasty feeling.
Five minutes later, Jason in a hoodie wearing a cap to hide his wound looked at Eric, his impersonator, receiving transfusion on the bed. He smiled and said, "When the nurse came here, you remember to turn around without clothes and she won't discover."
Eric was uneasy and asked, "What's that medicine? Any side effect?"
"Just normal saline and it will be gone after you empty your bladder. Don't worry, man. "
