The Mafia King's Unknown Doctor Wife novel Chapter 245

Chapter 245

Elena waited for Matten to continue. If he knew anything about Tyler’s mystery woman, it would be extremely helpful.

The only problem was that Matteo wasn’t talking. He was frowning as he squeezed his eyes closed, his brow furrowed.

“Fuck,” Matteo swore, “just give me a minute… Ah, she had red hair… green eyes…

Elena frowned. This wasn’t any new information.

“Did you get a good look at her face?” Elena pressed.

Matteo glared at her disappointed tone. “Yes,” he hissed, “I know I did. Mornents before the accident are just kinda… fuzzy–just hold on a second.”

“Curly red hair,” Matteo mumbled. “And really bright green eyes…”

Matteo swore again.

Elena did her best to hide her frustrations. Though Matteo had recovered well, he wasn’t invincible. It was just incredibly inconvenient that his worst problems had to be memory ones–especially since he apparently got a clear look at this mystery woman.

“Are you feeling okay?” Elena asked. “Should I call one of the doctors?”

“No,” Matteo replied moodily, “they said to expect as much.”

“Then maybe we should just wait,” Elena suggested. “You might be able to recall more later. But trying to force it isn’t going to do anything but make us both frustrated.

Matteo sighed. “I know I got a clear look at her, Elena,” he said stubbornly. “And… I know I’ve seen her before- and so have you.”

Elena raised an eyebrow at that. “Have I?” she asked.

Matteo nodded. “I remember thinking, ‘I need to tell Elena,‘” her half–brother recalled. “So you have to know this woman somehow…”

Elena grabbed Matteo’s hands, dragging his attention back to her and the present. “I believe you,” she said simply.

“But,” Elena continued, “you don’t need to worry about this. Massimo and are handling it. So take your time, okay?”

The two siblings shared a fond look. Matteo suddenly rolled his eyes.

“You’re one to talk,” he replied. “I’m in the process of getting cleared to go home. I could get released from this shitty hospital any day now–so you don’t need to treat me like I’m some fragile piece of glass.”

Elena chuckled lightly. “You’re impossible to deal with,” she teased. “First you complain about me not paying enough attention and caring about you, and now you’re getting annoyed that I show an ounce of concern.”

“Yeah, well, I changed my mind,” her half–brother declared. “I’ve had enough of being smothered and cared for, thank you very much.”

“Brat.”

“Bitch.”

But there was no heat behind the insults. If anything, there was some concern and worry–and a whole lot of fondness.

Elena glanced at the hospital clock. She would need to get going soon.

“Text me when you have a discharge date,” Elena said. “I can help you get settled back home.”
