I hurriedly raised the overbed table and took out the food. “I’ve made chicken soup and some vegetables. The doctor says you can only eat healthy food.”
It seemed John would have to keep a strict diet for the next few months.
Nonetheless, he did not show any displeasure, but he picked up the spoon and started eating. I knew he was trying not to make me feel guilty. “Wow. You’re becoming better at cooking. I should hire you to become my chef now that I am hospitalized.”
I tried hard not to let my tears fall. “All right. I will prepare your food every day.”
John accepted it casually. “Thank you in advance then. Haha…”
Emma shook her head while provoking, “You don’t allow others to bully your sister. Yet, you’re the one who keeps taking advantage of her.”
John was not offended at all as he let out a chuckle. “Haha. If you want to cook for me, I don’t mind humbling myself and taking advantage of you.”
Emma cast a furious look upon hearing that. John ignored her deliberately and continued to drink his soup.
The atmosphere was extremely relaxed, as though nothing had happened. It was as though John had not been in the accident, and his hand was still intact. He was still the same arrogant man who would stand up for me whenever I got bullied.
Deep down in my heart, I knew it was their way of being considerate to me and showing me moral support.
When I thought it was our mutual understanding, so I avoid talking about the sensitive topic, John went in the opposite direction.
“D*mn Nathaniel. How dare he play dirty. I won’t let him off so easily next time.” John got upset, and he spilled his soup slightly on his shirt.
