Chapter 436
Nolan lowered his gaze, kissed her head, was going to say something but suddenly started violently coughing.
Maisie got up, her heart in knots. “Nolan, are you alright?”
Nolan raised his hand to stifle the cough and moved his face away. He noticed some sticky substance in his palm and was surprised, but since Maisie didn’t notice anything, he curled his hand into a fist and smiled at her. “I’m alright. I just choked on saliva.”
Maisie pursed her lips. “Are you hungry then? Do you want some food?”
Nolan’s eyes were soft. “I’m hungry now that you mentioned it. I want to eat something that you made.”
Maisie stood up, “Alright, I’ll go make something, hang tight.”
She walked to the door, saw Erwin, and said, “Uncle Erwin, could you help me look after Noles for a bit?”
Erwin nodded.
After Maisie left, Erwin walked into the room and saw Nolan looking at his open palm.
“Did you cough blood?” Erwin knew.
Nolan paused and closed his hand. “Yes.” He thought o
f something and looked at him. “How did you know?”
Erwin answered, “Because you’re in bad shape.”
Nolan held his bloodied palm tight and calmly said, “Do you know what’s wrong with me?”
