Riches in Disguise

Chapter 34

I was about to continue picking the fruits up when I heard Lucas' voice coming from the door to the hospital ward.

"Babe, are you feeling better?"

As he walked in with his crutches, he gave me a glare. He had a scornful look on his face, as if I was standing in his way. So, I could only get up and make way for him.

They were a couple and they were patients. They had the right to have their way.

Liam pulled me toward the wall beside. He whispered, "Did you hear his question? It hasn't even been an hour since Charlotte was hospitalized. How could she be feeling better?"

Benjamin chimed in, "That shows that he isn't actually concerned about Charlotte. He was just asking out of courtesy."

Lucas disregarded us completely. With the help of his crutches, he walked to the side of the bed and looked at the injured Charlotte with a regretful look on his face.

"I'm sorry. It was all my fault. You ended up seriously injured because of me."

"Don't say this, Lucas. If it weren't for you, I would've been in an even worse state. Plus, I had a lot of fun tonight. It was really thrilling. It was worth the injury."

Charlotte smiled. Even though her lips were swollen, she still had a pretty smile. "You're too nice, babe."
