Chapter 1805
“What on earth did he eat tonight? His stomach’s churning out acid like a soda fountain.”
The doctors expression was a mix of stern and dour clearly annoyed by the patient’s reckless disregard for his own well being
As a doctor, the most common encounters were either with those who didn’t follow medical advice or those who created problems for themselves. Not valuing their own health was a big taboo for them as doctors And every day there were patients who kept coming back with such issues
The diagnosis of acute gastritis was enough to make Rose’s blood boil. Given how Morrison reacted to spicy food, she was certain he had a history of stomach issues.
Had he lost his mind tonight? He knew his stomach was a ticking time bomb, that he couldn’t handle spicy food, and yet he’d gone and done it anyway c2
All because of Winston’s offhand comment that he couldn’t take the heat?
To her such willful ignorance was nothing short of idiocy Why would someone as sharp as Morrison make such a boneheaded mistake?
“He well, the dish i made tonight was a bit on the spicy side.”
The doctor pursed his lips, his face tightening “Watch it next time. A few more episodes like this, and it might be too late for a hospital run.”
Rose bit her lip and nodded, voice a low murmur, “Understood, it won’t happen again.”
The doctor retreated back into the examination room.
The doctor’s words did suggest Morrison would pull through without serious consequences this time, which allowed Rose to breathe a sigh of relief before she settled on the hallway bench to wait for him to emerge
She covered her face with her hands, still shaken by the sight of his agony
Thank God it was nothing serious. The sheer panic of the situation had been overwhelming If something had happened to Morrison, she didn’t know what she would’ve
dane
After what felt like an eternity, the door finally opened. Rose sprang to her feet and approached.
In the hospital room, Morison, after taking anesthesia for the examination, still hadn’t woken up.
“In the next two days, no solid food is allowed, but he can have some easily digestible liquid food. Pay attention to stomach maintenance in the future–anything that is gentle on the stomach is fine. Also,”
The doctor snapped his clipboard shut and furrowed his brows at Rose. “It wasn’t just the spicy food that did a number on his stomach From what we found, it seems like he’s had a whole smorgasbord of issues. Based on what he ate tonight, it shouldn’t have been this bad. Your culinary skills… Have you ever cooked before?”
If it really was her cooking then questioning her skills was an understatement – it would’ve been more appropriate to ask if she knew how to cook at all. Landing someone in the hospital took some doing
Rose shook her head. “No, I had guests over tonight, and none of us had any issues”
The doctor glanced at her “Are you guys trying to kill him?”
Rose’s mouth twitched, “Of course not.”
“Well, that’s odd. Anyway, let’s chalk it up to a learning experience. Make sure you’re more careful in the future.*
Rose nodded vigorously. “Yes, there won’t be a next time.”
The doctor gave her a detailed rundown of do’s and don’ts before leaving, sizing her up one more time before adding “Can you manage on your own? Shouldn’t we notify his
next of kin?”
Rose shook her head, “No need, I can handle it.”
After the doctor left. Rose returned to the hospital room, looking at the man on the bed who still hadn’t awakened. She stood there for a moment before finding a chair to sit
beside him
Gone was his usual combative demeanor, and his typically sarcastic words. He lay there, breaths even, lips slightly parted, handsome features relaxed and expressionless.
Such a face how could it be so handsome? If only his personality wasn’t so off–putting
She gently laid her hand on his brow, trailing it softly “This face it’s dangerous.”
If the hadrit falien for those looks, and thus him, she wouldn’t be breaking her own rules like this.
It just wasn’t like her
Some things like now, were better off being appreciated at face value, because it was simpler that way, more satisfying and joyful
Withdrawing her hand she placed it on her stomach
In the silence of the hospital room, their breathing was the only sound Rose sat there, gazing at Morrison’s face, lost in thought
Time passed and as sleepiness crept up on her, she yawned and stood intending to rest on the nearby couch. But her hand was sud
She trembled and looked down to see Momson’s eyes slowly opening, his gap firm on her “You when did you wake up
Momsons eyelids were heavy the sedatives still in his system. He vaguely remembered being wheeled into the room, but he had been ina
gripped tight
He knew Rose had been sitting by his side and as she began to leave, he instincthely reached out to hold her. He didn’t answer her question but estead asked, “Whom are you going?
Im tired I was going to rest on the couch for a bit
Morrison pursed his lips and shifted slightly After a moment, he lifted the covers and patted the empty space beside him, his voice wesk. “Corne here”
Rose hesitated. “You’re still sick. Wouldn’t it be better for you to rest alone
“Hurry up.”
Marnson pulled at her hand with impatience
With a blush creeping across her face, Rose glanced at the offered space and withdrew her hand.
Morrison watched her with a frown, his pale face marked with displeasure, but Rose simply took off her jacket and draped it over the chair Then the ipproached the bed
1/3
Momsons expression softened as he realized she was still wearing the same home wear, too rattled earlier to change.
The sat on the edge of the bed, lifted her legs onto it, and slowly lay down. The VIP hospital bed was spacious and comfortable, and Morrison hadn’t left much room. As she lay down, she was right in the perfect spot. Her body stiff, she lay flat, her face turned to the side, unsure where to look.
Just as she pulled the covers over herself, Mornson moved closer. His arms wrapped around het, his presence engulfing her, his warm breath cascaded over the skin of her
neck
Rose was caught off guard, her breath suddenly seizing as her body tensed
“You still haven’t answered my question, his muffled voice emanated from the nape of her neck, his breath scorching upon her skin.
Rose’s mind briefly short–circuited “What?”
A prolonged silence ensued before he asked, “Why do you care about me so much?”
Her eyes flickered “Because you’re my.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride
did it really end this way. can I have the rest of the book ending??...
So, all of them were basically forced into sexual acts by their partners the first time, then their partners wanted to seclude them from everyone. On top of that, all of are jealous of their own children. The only couple that seem to have it good were Azriel & Phoebe. This book was honestly quite sickening & there’s no way anyone should find this romantic...
