Falling For My “Disabled” Wife by Veronica Winifred
Chapter 21

Chapter 21 

But seeing Sophie’s confident smile, Roger could not bear to refuse, so he helplessly said, “Alright.” 

Upon seeing his agreement, Sophie was so happy that she was somewhat over the moon. She thought Roger could not see, but in fact, Roger saw everything. He smiled involuntarily. 

With all the preparation done, Sophie was then assisted by Roger as she got out of bed. With a strong arm supporting her, Sophie walked steadily. Compared to the rehabilitation a few days ago, in which she fell at every turn, the rehabilitation today was truly a moment of happiness. 

Getting close to the window, she would quietly remind, “Turn left now.” 

Showing no change in expression, Roger turned, steadily supporting her to turn step by step. 

And so, ten minutes, twenty minutes passed by. Sophie was already dripping with sweat, but she kept pushing through. 

Roger sensed that the hand that he held was soaked with sweat. He could not help but frown as he said, “You’re already exhausted. Why don’t you stop for a while?” 

Sophie said, “It’s okay… Ah!” Just as she was about to refuse, she felt her sore legs suddenly go weak. Thinking she would fall again, she instinctively protected herself immediately. 

But unexpectedly, Roger moved swiftly. He actually reached out and pulled her back. The strong inertia even caused her to immediately crash into his arms. 

Thud. Thud. Thud. Sophie heard strong heartbeats. She instinctively steadied herself, lifted her head, and looked at Roger, saying. “Th–Thank you.” 

But at that moment, she noticed that his firm jawline had a perfect contour, which was very nice- looking. Instantly, she blushed. She hurriedly lowered her head. 

Roger sensed her unease and playfully raised the corner of his lips. He said, “You’re being polite. Don’t be shy.” 

‘Oh, golly!‘ Sophie thought, suddenly feeling even more awkward. She wondered, How does he know?” “Nope… I’m not,” she said, quickly denying it. ‘After all, he can’t see anyway, she thought. 

Roger teased, “Why did you stammer then?” 

Sophie was left speechless. She refrained from speaking right away, and she had no choice but to change the topic, saying, “I’m tired. Let’s take a break.” 

“Sure, Roger said. He did not refuse. He helped her sit on the sofa. Roger pulled out a tissue and then handed it to her to wipe away the sweat.

Sophie was slightly stunned. She was surprised that Roger actually knew she was sweating. But she did not overthink things. She took it and wiped her face and hands. 

Roger said with a serious look in his eyes, “There’s still some time before Grandpa’s banquet. You don’t have to push yourself so hard.” 

Sophie shook her head and said, “Norman said I must walk steadily to attend the banquet. So, I must fully recover before the birthday banquet.” She thought. “This way… when I meet my family, I can face them calmly. I don’t want to just be a disabled person!” 

Roger’s eyes turned serious. He didn’t expect Norman to make such a request. 

Sophie thought he was worried about her. She quickly said, “Don’t worry. I won’t push myself too hard. What’s more, I have your help now. I’ll definitely recover faster. When I went through rehabilitation alone in the past, I fell countless times every day. After coming to the Nicholls family’s home, I only fell about ten times. I didn’t even fall once today. I feel much better than before. Two weeks are enough for me to fully recover.” 

As he heard that she had fallen so many times and that she even fell in the Nicholls family’s home, Roger’s face instantly became particularly gloomy. Even though he knew she was definitely rehabilitating at home every day when he went out, he did not expect her to fall so many times every day. 

Sensing that he looked grim, Sophie asked with a hint of doubt, “What’s wrong? Are you upset?” She thought, ‘Did I say something wrong? It’s just some trivial matters from before. Why does he look so grim? 

“Nothing,” Roger replied. He did not say much. Instead, he merely reached out calmly, lifted her leg, and placed it on his knee. 

Sophie was startled by his action. She immediately exclaimed, “What are you doing?” No one had. touched her foot like this before. Instantly, she flushed. 

Roger, however, calmly said, “I’ll give you a massage.” 

With her deliberately showing that she was stronger than she actually was every day, Sophie’s legs must be very sore. Sure enough, as soon as Roger touched Sophie’s foot she could not help but exclaim, “Ouch!” 

Roger’s expression became even more grim. “Don’t move,” he said. “You practice every day, but your don’t have time to massage your muscles. It’s bound to be painful. Bear with it.” Although his tone was serious, it also carried a hint of concern. 

At that moment, Sophie could not resist. She could only bite her lower lip and endure, letting him. massage her. 

Even though Roger could not see, his hands were strong, and each press landed on her sore points.

It really could relieve the ache and swelling in her legs. 

Every day after rehabilitation, she was already tired. Plus, being afraid of someone discovering her rehabilitation, she really did not have much time for massages. So, the pain in her legs had almost accumulated. But at this moment, Roger’s hands seemed to have magical power. Wherever his palms went, the soreness cased significantly. 

At first, she was a little bashful, but as she truly sensed that he was just massaging without any inappropriate actions, she relaxed. Yet, she still could not help but blush. 

After massaging for a while, Sophie felt much more comfortable. She said to Roger, “Thank you. I feel much better now.” 

It was only then that Roger slowly put down her leg and said in a serious tone, “In the future, after your daily exercise, I’ll help you with the massage. If you feel uncomfortable, just let me know.” 

“It’s okay.” Sophie said. “I can do it myself…” 

Roger frowned and said, “It’s inconvenient for you to do it yourself. Let’s stick with this arrangement.” 

Sophie said, “But…” She thought, ‘We should avoid physical contact. Besides, given his eyesight, it’s not convenient either. 

However, Roger did not mind. He immediately changed the subject, saying, “That’s it for the morning session. Rest well, and practice again in the afternoon. Don’t overstrain yourself. Haste makes waste.” 

Sophie was convinced by his serious expression. She nodded and said, “Alright. I’ll listen to your 

then.” 

Roger then breathed a sigh of relief and lifted her in his arms. Even though Sophie had only been at the Nicholls family’s home for three days, she had already been carried by him many times. She had gotten somewhat used to it, so she obediently let him carry her. 

Roger placed her back on the bed, tucked her in, and then thoughtfully poured her a glass of water before going to the study to attend to his own affairs. 

For some reason, being taken care of by Roger today gave her an unparalleled sense of happiness. The feeling of having someone help with her rehabilitation was truly different. She was really happy as she did not fall today. Her mind was filled with images of Roger massaging her. 

For some reason, thinking about these things caused Sophie to be unable to take her eyes off Roger. She could not deny it. With him around, she seemed to have become happier.

Nightfall soon arrived. After a day of coordinated rehabilitation, Roger and Sophie developed some mutual understanding without the need for verbal expression. At dinner time, Roger still wheeled Sophie downstairs. 

Having just been reprimanded yesterday, Jasmine did not show up for three consecutive meals. Finally, she appeared at dinner. But upon seeing Roger and Sophie, she merely gave them a glare before quickly averting her gaze and eating, as if afraid that Damian and Norman would notice. 

Rebecca and Humphrey remained silent as well. However, there were two additional people at the dining table tonight. One was Emily, whom Sophie had met before. However, she had not seen the other man before. Nonetheless, seeing him seated between Emily and Rebecca, he should be the Ronald mentioned by Roger based on the hierarchical order within the family. 

Sure enough, upon seeing Roger and Sophie, he could not help but greet Sophie, saying, “You’re my cousin–in–law, right? I didn’t expect you to be so good–looking. You don’t resemble Laura much… Ronald Nicholls spoke without restraint. Even more so, his gaze was unrestrained. He looked Sophie up and down for quite a while. 

Rebecca could not help but kick him under the table. She said angrily, “If you don’t speak, no one will treat you as a mute!” She thought, Jeez, he’s saying things he shouldn’t say! Sophie married. nto the Nicholls family for Laura, and this brat actually still dares to mention that girl from the Bourn family!
