Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap -
Chapter 755 Who Knows, He might be Softhearted
Boyce rushed up to him and asked anxiously, "What is his condition?"
The doctor looked at him, "Are you family with the patient?"
Boyce answered after a pause, “I am.”
"The patient has grave injuries. You need to be prepared for anything." After saying that, he produced a surgery agreement contract, "His family need to approve of this surgery."
A loud buzzing overcame Boyce. He couldn't believe the doctor's words.
What did he mean by saying 'be prepared for anything?
"Please sign it now, or else the surgery will be delayed." The doctor reminded again.
Boyce came back to reality and answered, "I'll sign it."
It was paramount to save his life first. Armand's only relative was his mother, and it was not easy to bring her here at the moment.
After his signature, Boyce hastily called Matthew.
Matthew was at a hospital too, but it was not the same one as where Armand was now. Armand had been sent to the nearest hospital from the scene of the accident. Dolores was pestering Matthew, "What do you mean by saying 'toasting to your love'?"
She was curious when she heard this phrase during dinner.
Matthew was lying there, but he had no intention to answer her.
Dolores was very persistent. She threw herself into his embrace, "If you don't spill now, I'm going to bite you."
Matthew asked, "Where do you plan to bite me?"
Dolores blinked, and her eyelashes left a huge shade under the glow of the light. She smiled and poked his lips with her finger, "What about here?" Matthew raised his chin, "Then I'll allow you to bite me there."
Dolores swooped down and bit him on his lips while hugging his face. She didn't bite very hard, but there was still a set of jaw imprint left on his lips.
Matthew reached out and touched his face reluctantly, "Your saliva is on my cheeks."
"This is what you get for not telling me." Dolores pouted, "I should just bite you to death."
Matthew wrapped his arms around her waist and smiled nonchalantly, "They said that a woman's heart is the most venomous."
"You only know that now? However, it's too late now, I have successfully pestered you and made sure you cannot get rid of me anymore." Dolores lied down on his arm and stared at the ceiling, "It's just a week away, and it will be eight months."
She then turned and asked, "Are you looking forward to it?"
Matthew nodded and hugged her from the side. He planted a kiss on her forehead, "It's my child too, of course, I am looking forward to that day. I have missed out on Samuel and Simona, so I won't miss this one. I won't let you be alone. I already asked the doctor, and he told me that I can accompany you when you give birth..."
"No."
Dolores was against this idea.
She didn't want anyone to be by her side when she gave birth.
The scene when she gave birth was going to be violent, and she didn't like the idea of Matthew laying eyes on such a scene.
Matthew seemed to know what she meant, so he simply laughed, "You're going to give birth to my child. No matter how you turn out to be, I will always love you."
Dolores was still very repulsive, "No can do."
Furthermore, there would be doctors, nurses and other workers there. Many people would be present, and from her waist down she would be stark naked...
"Tell me truthfully, do you have any women by your side in the past?" Dolores brought up an old topic once again. She pinched his cheeks, "You know a lot, don't you? Are you feeling guilty for hiding things from me?"
Matthew didn't say anything.
It seemed that he couldn't just breeze through this, could he?
He cleared his throat and said, "When I said toasting to the love, I mean drinking alcohol."
"What kind of drinking do you mean?" Dolores pursued the topic. It must not be just any ordinary drinking, or else, why with the fancy name, 'toast to your love'?
That name was incredibly suspicious.
Matthew mumbled something, "It's referring to the cross-cupped beer..."
"Stop lying to me." Dolores wouldn't so naively believe that.
Matthew glanced at her through the corners of his eyes, "I haven't finished yet. You're interrupting me."
Dolores shut up and looked at him with the expression of urging him on.
Matthew continued, "Cross-cupped drinking is just the first stage. In the second stage, a couple would drink by kissing, and in the third stage..."
His eyes were directed at Dolores, which made her lurch backwards, "Is there something even more lecherous?"
Matthew nodded solemnly, and his eyes were studying her.
Dolores asked, "What are you looking at?"
Matthew replied, "Nothing."
He then proceeded to hug her and looked like he wanted to sleep.
Dolores continued asking, "Are you men so thick-faced when nobody is watching?"
Matthew tightened his hug and said, "I am only so thick-faced when I am with you."
"You know a lot, so who knows, maybe you have said the same thing to many women in the past." Dolores naturally believed him, but she just wanted to tease him by pretending to be angry. Matthew smiled, "Then I will do it."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, being thick-faced in front of other women..."
"How dare you!"
Matthew's smile deepened as he asked, "What will happen if I do that?"
Dolores answered fiercely, "I will chop you up and feed the dogs!"
Matthew was speechless.
Why did this sound so familiar?
Wasn't this what she used to say to him in the past?
The two of them continued to banter for a while before going to sleep with Matthew hugging her.
In the thick of sleep, they heard the sound of the phone ringing.
Dolores asked softly, "Isn't that your phone?"
Matthew fumbled around before replaceing her phone, and upon looking at the caller, he saw that it was Boyce. He was far more reliable and trustworthy compared to Armand, so he wouldn't call him at this hour without a good reason. Matthew answered the call.
"Hello."
"Armand has met with an accident, and it is pretty serious. Surgery is being performed on him now in the hospital, and I am here. I don't know how to deal with this, what should I do?"
Matthew sat up on his bed and switched on the lamp. He asked again, "What did you say?"
"I said, Armand was in an accident," Boyce repeated.
Matthew frowned deeply, "How did he get into an accident?"
"Drunk driving."
Dolores widened her eyes, "Who's in an accident?"
"Armand. I am going to take a look at things." Matthew immediately got up and asked about the hospital Boyce was currently at. Then, he hung up and started to replace his clothes.
Dolores asked, "Is it serious?"
"Yes, Boyce is already at the hospital now. If it's a small injury, he wouldn't have called me." Matthew replied while wearing his clothes. After saying that, he came over and caressed Dolores' hair, "Don't worry, Boyce and I will look after things. You just need to sleep." Dolores nodded and after some hesitation, she asked, "Should we tell Theresa?"
Matthew mulled over this before concluding, "Give her a call."
The two of them always had a difficult relationship. Perhaps this timing was a good chance for them. Perhaps Theresa would become softhearted.
Dolores nodded, "Please drive slowly when it's night now. There's no need to rush."
With this accident on Armand, she suddenly felt a gripping uneasy overcoming her.
Matthew agreed with her and called Jessica to come over so that there would be someone corresponding with him here.
Dolores didn't get up, and she couldn't get off the bed and walk. After Matthew had left, she picked up the phone and called Theresa.
Most people were soundly asleep at this moment, including Theresa. It was a busy day for her today, and she only made it home at eleven. She had gone to sleep after washing up. However, she was awakened by the noise of her phone ringing.
She found her phone while still in a blur and pressed the receiver button.
"Theresa?"
Dolores called out lightly.000
