Even an idiot could sense the tension as Richie just finished his words. And the woman in front of the cold man didn't show any expression on her face.
He didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, as if he would have a duel with her if he looked at Cassie.
It took her a while to realize that her guess was right. This man went to drink because of Consuela.
She just didn't know the extent to which the quarrel between them had reached, so that this man, who always had super self-control, began to drink to relieve his worries.
She said in surprise to herself that he was stupid.
However, in this man's mind, Consuela was important to him too. Otherwise, he would not be able to control himself and do such a reckless thing.
The ward suddenly became quiet. Cassie took a bite of the apple to quiet herself down.
There were some changes in his facial expressions, mostly impatience and forbearance. She doubted that this man had wanted to hit her for a moment.
But considering the practicability of this kind of thing, he chose to give it up.
Cassie was scared by her own thoughts. She moved a stool far away from the hospital bed, took down an apple and reminded him, "You'd better not move now. If you have a sequela, I may not be able to save you."
Actually, she was threatening him. She didn't want him to forget that she was a doctor.
At the same time, she was looking forward to the return of Tim. She lowered her head to look at her watch. Thirty minutes had passed. Was the man a tortoise? Why didn't he return?
On the bed, Richie turned his back to Cassie while trying not to pull the infusion.
Then he asked, "did you tell her that I am in hospital?"
Cassie was biting the apple. She stopped for a while, looked at the man's embarrassed action, and smiled, "Don't worry. It's not worthwhile for a pregnant woman to worry about you every day. I won't inform her."
This answer was no surprise, but it made sense.
Without saying anything more, Richie looked out of the window at the scenery. The sky was blue after the heavy rain of yesterday.
Tim had already brought the breakfast to the door. Hearing the undisguised words of Cassie, he hesitated for a moment.
Actually, it was he who said this to Cassie. He just thought that if that woman knew that Richie drank alcohol for her to get alcohol poisoning, she might be very happy.
Then she would put on airs to raise her worth again.
However, no matter what that person had done, when Richie learned that she had no idea of it and would not come to take care of him, he was somewhat disappointed.
Tim pretended that he didn't know anything. He opened the door and walked in, and said to the man on the bed, "Richie, you washed your stomach yesterday. You'd better have some liquid food today."
Cassie, who was sitting near the door and was ignored completely, bit the apple and sighed, "If you are so kind to me, I will definitely fall in love with you deeply."
The two men in the ward ignored her. Richie wanted her to leave, while Tim didn't know what to say.
