Chapter 1806

Rose was taken aback, staring at Morrison for a long while. Her mouth opened and closed, utterly at a loss for words.

She replayed his words over in her mind dozens of times, but the answer eluded her. So did Morrison actually like her or not?

“Dislike her and still fancy her? Men.”

Men were all the same Morrison was no exception.

“Wife show–off flirting. “c2

Eventually, he just blurted out the words one by one. Rose could string them together, but she was flaunting flirting?

In her current state, she must have been at her most unglamorous ever Pregnant with a protruding belly, devoid of any curves to speak of her face was mostly bare except for minimal makeup for work. At home, she never bothered much with her appearance.

Lately, she’d been as natural as can be, just doing whatever felt comfortable. Compared to her past self, even her school days, she didn’t stand a chance What was there to flaunt or flirt about in front of him now?

But the word “wife” in his mouth still caught her attention

She pursed her lips and burrowed her head back into Morrison’s chest. Considering he still knew she was his wife, she decided not to hold it against him today

Not that she could, even if she wanted to. He was so groggy right now, he probably had no idea what he had said earlier. She regretted not recording it to play back to him the next day, just to see his expression.

Drowsiness overtook her, and she yawned, snuggling into Morrison’s embrace and closing her eyes.

If there was one skill she’d honed during pregnancy, it was controlling her emotions, adjusting her mindset to not let anything get to her

Morrison said he disliked her, but he also said he liked her. She’d just go with the latter. It made her happier.

The next morning Rose woke up early

Morrison was still asleep. She carefully extracted herself from his arms, but the next second, she was enveloped in a tight embrace from behind “Go back to sleep

Rose stiffened. “I I need to go home for a bit. You need breakfast. I’ll make some oatmeal for you.”

Morrison’s brow creased, still with his eyes closed “Call the assistant to bring it over.”

“That won’t do Store–bought gruel won’t be good for you. Go back to sleep.”

He refused to let go

“Morrison Rose urged him gently but firmly.

Finally Morrison suddenly tossed the covers off.

*What are you doing? Rose quickly covered him ag

Morrison looked at her, his face grew pale, showing signs of sickness, but his grip didn’t loosen. “Rose” His voice was weaker than before

Do you know why I’m in the hospital right now?

Rose pressed her lips together, “Acute gastritis.”

Morrison took a shallow breath, “And who caused it?”

Without hesitation, Rose replied: “You”

Taking a deep breath, Momson suddenly clutched his stomach, agitated. “It was you who caused it!”

Rose’s expression was blank. “How so?”

“Werent those dishes made by you?!

“I made what you like, but last night you insisted on fighting over the rest. Why be macho when you can’t handle spicy? If it’s self–inflicted, how can it be anyone else’s fault” Momson hadn’t expected the caring delicate woman from last night to turn into someone so argumentative Couldn’t she see he was a patient and cut him some stack?

His face grew gloomy Rose, are you hearing yourself? I’m a patient here Do you want to push me over the edge?

“Even patients need to be masonable”

Morrison glared at her fiercely if it wasn’t for you inviting that rumored boyfriend over for dinner without telling me first would be in this state

Rose took a deep breath, Alright, alright it’s my fault I shouldn’t have invited Winston over without consulting you first, and I shouldnt have prepared i fault you ended up in the hospital So, can you

now let me go home and cook for you?

“Rose I can tell you didn’t mean if

Roses expression turned serious. Tm sorry Truly

Momson huffed, holding her hand, his look more pitiful. Good to know So to prevent future hospital visits, you know what to do, right?

Rose nodded. “I will never put chili in your dishes again

Momson gritted his teeth. “No, it means you’re never to meet Winston privately again”

Rose gave him an odd look, then snickered “Why? You’re not jealout, are you?

Morrison narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing her. Dori flatter yourself

Rose’s smile faded, as she became earnest cant word Winston He’s the spokesperson Thored, and the company needs hot. Besides, we no friends. If he wants to mee me, I can’t just ignore him

“Rose, Morrisons voice chilled, you’re trying to finish me off

Rose “Why would dealing with Winston be harmful to you?”

She seriously suspected that Morson had overheard the doctor’s conversation with her last right

Momson studied her for a long moment before his brow furrowed with pain. Rose’s expression changed, and she leaned in closer, “Are you okay? What’s wrong?”

“My stomach hurts so much”

“Just wait, I’ll call the doctor”

Without giving Momson a chance to speak, Rose dashed out of the room in a panic.

The doctor was practically pushed in by Rose After a brief examination, the doctor cast a doubtful look at Morrison, “It doesn’t seem too serious.”

The conversation was halfway through when Momson’s icy gaze shot over like an arrow, causing the doctor to swiftly change his tone. ‘Stomach ailments are among the most challenging conditions we face in this hospital They can stem from a variety of causes–late nights, excessive drinking, eating icy or spicy foods, or even stress It requires a great deal of self–discipline and cooperation from the patient if the patient doesn’t work with us, we’re at a loss I strongly suggest rest and attention to all these factors. Otherwise, you risk exacerbating the condition and possibly facing irreversible consequences

After his speel, the doctor glanced at Morrison, who nodded in solemn agreement. “Indeed. I believe my stomach pain flared up because I got upset just now

The doctor cleared his throat and turned to Rose with a forced stem expression “Ma’am, I hope you can be mindful of the patient’s emotional state Patients tend to be quite sensitive, and it’s best not to provoke them–especially while they’re hospitalized

Momson coughed weakly at his side, his brow furrowed with the visage of suffering.

Who was provoking him?

Rose felt aggrieved inside, but the doctor’s words had sent shivers down her spine. Especially the part about how easily stomach disorders could worsen had drenched her

in cold sweat

Seeing Morrison in such distress only heightened her concern

“I understand I’ll be more careful in the future.”

The doctor nodded, gave a fleeting look at the man on the bed who seemed to be in agony, and a nearly imperceptible smirk twitched at the corner of his mouth–how

chilorsh

Although stomach pain can indeed be excruciating, considering the treatment and pain relief he had just yesterday, along with the anesthesia during the examination, Morrison shouldn’t be in such discomfort

“Well, do take care. When patients aren’t self–disciplined, it’s up to those around them to keep a vigilant eye. It’s tough work”

Rose replied with a simple, “Thank you, Doctor”

The doctor nodded and left the room

“See, Rose, this is all your fault.”

“Okay I’m sorry”

“What good is sorry? You need to behave, got it?”

“Huh?”

Morrison felt a genuine twinge in his stomach at Rose’s obstinate cluelessness. ‘You… Winston! I swear, just seeing Winston makes my stomach chum Keep your distance from him.”

Rose frowned slightly “Alright, I’ll try not to let you see him.”

Morrison’s complexion softened a bit. “You need to stay away from him”

Rose sensed that he was playing up his itiness to be difficult. Knowing that arguing would only prolong the ordeal, she simply nodded along “Sure, sure, I get it. So, can go and start cooking for you now?”

Morrison paused before flinging the covers aside and sitting up.

Rose blinked in shock What are you doing?

Without a word Momson stripped off his hospital gown and reached for his clothes on the hanger

“Momson Rose called out in frustration

“Im going home with you

She moved to his side. “No! You still need your IV today”

“I don’t want it Morrison’s words hung in the air as he looked up to find her glaring at him furiously.

He softened his tone slightly just don’t want to be at the hospital alone We could call a home doctor”

Rose blinked slowly, her expression easing considerably

Momson finished dressing and took her hand Fll call the home doctor as soon as we get back. That way, I dont have to stay here, and you dont have to shults back, and

forth, okay?

“But your condition

Im not at death’s door Lets go”

Unable to argue with him she was led out by Morrison, who left all hospital discharge procedures to his assistant

Back home, the kitchen was a mess from the right Before

Without even taking a shower, Momson headed straight upstairs Rose freshered up quackty and started cooking youp belone clearing the leftovers off the table. There were plenty of dishes from the previous right over a dozen At Monitoris place, most of the plates were emptied. He expression hardened. There was no need to eat all that, even if he didn’t want to concede to Winston

As she tidied up, she noticed the untouched food in front of her apot She usually would mea leftover dishes with now for a meal from last night and combining them into one plate. She didnt think twice before adding the few remaining pieces from Maisons plate

Once everything was cleared, she had a full plate. She then turned the leftover rice into a fried rice dish for herself

Morrison’s soup took a while to cook. During that time, she mashed the grains with a spoon until it was nearly a paste before serv

I just chat, pickung

Chapter 1906

She eyed him briefly “Did you call the home doctor?”

1. ep. they I be here by nine”

“Great, let’s eat then”

Momson sat across from her, noting the generous amount of fried rice on her plate She hadn’t forgotten how to pack on the pounds

Without another thought he scooped up a spoonful of his soup and hesitated. “If I didn’t know any better, I’d think I was being punished here.”

Rose glanced at him “Never had the chance before, and now’s the perfect time for payback.”

He sipped the soup “Seems you’ve got quite the grudge

“And you think you were always such a saint?”

Morrison fell silent

With a smirk, Rose shoveled a spoonful of fried rice into her mouth. But after a couple of chews, her expression froze and then contorted in disgust. She furiously spat out the contents onto a napkin

Morrison frowned What’s wrong?”

She took a gulp of water and pointed to her plate “Did I make this last night? What what is this taste

His gaze shifted to her plate, and his expression darkened. “You’re eating leftovers ?!” His voice was sharp with anger, and his presence became intimidating

Rose was taken aback “What’s wrong with that?”

The spoon in Morrison’s hand clattered as he threw it into the bowl. “Are we so broke we can’t afford a fresh meal? Leftovers, really?”

Rose’s expression turned frosty. “What’s wrong with leftovers? I grew up eating them.”

You

Morrison’s facial muscles twitched in frustration, his temper teetering on the edge of explosion.

Rose pushed her plate away, her nose wrinkling in distaste, “Why does this taste so off? It’s spicy, sweet, salty, and sour

She trailed off, suddenly pausing as if a thought struck her, then turned to Morrison with a sharp gaze. “Did you, by any chance, last night…”

Morrison glanced at the stir–fried rice and quickly averted his eyes

“Rose”

“What?

Suddenly, Momson stood up, reaching across the table to grasp her wrist firmly

“You’re asking for it.”
