Ouch! My CEO Fiancé Fell For His Maid

66- The Third One

Third person pov

Justin was pacing in the corridor waiting for the doctors to come out of Ashley’s room. All he wanted to do right now was barge inside and take her home. Thankfully she gained consciousness while he was taking her to the hospital.

He leaned his forehead against the wall placing his palms on it. He was getting frustrated with each passing minute when he felt a hand on his shoulder.

He jumped up and spun around. The man who owned the cotton candy stall in the small market was standing behind him. By now Justin had totally forgotten about him.

“She will be fine, Sir.” He tried to calm Justin quite awkwardly. Maybe because there was a clear difference in class and status between them.

“I could not even ask your name,” Justin told him humbly, “Thank you for saving her.” Apparently, he was the one who had pulled Ashley out of harm’s way but unfortunately, Ashley’s head had bumped into something hard making her unconscious on the spot.

“I understand, sir. My name doesn’t matter, as long as your wife is safe.” Justin nodded at the kindness and made a mental note to ask Alex to find out about him. If he had any kids or a family, Justin could take their responsibility.

“There was a man who took her out of that crowd when the snake bit her.” The poor man attempted to

make a conversation.

“Excuse me? Which man?” Justin asked feeling confused.

“The same one who applied ointment to her injury and carried her home.” Justin felt mixed emotions of anger and resentment towards the stranger. Ashley did not tell him about any stranger.

“Mr. Deluca,” Both of them turned when a doctor in white overalls came out, “your wife is doing fine. She just had a mild concussion. A temporary one. But you need to be very careful.”

“What is it, doctor?” Justin asked him worriedly. The stupid doctor was making it longer when he only wanted to rush to his wife.

“You need to be very careful at least, for the next six months. We cannot afford one more injury on the head. I am not recommending bed rest. But she has to be careful while performing her daily duties. She is not allowed to bend down and should avoid sudden movements. It might affect her eyesight too.”

Justin felt as if someone had taken his racing heart out of his chest.

“I assure you. She will follow all the required instructions.” Justin wanted to keep her safe even if it meant strangling her to the bed.

“Hello.” She smiled at him, the moment he entered the room. A thick gauze was tied around her head. There was a little bandage on her chin too.

“Hey!” he went to her and held her outstretched hand, “Let’s go home.”
