Spoiled By My Once Vegetative Husband

Chapter 12

Standing at the doorway, Lauren furrowed her brows when she noticed Yvette’s red cheeks. “What’s wrong? Are you sick?”

Yvette shook her head furiously. Tm not sick. I only saw something I’m not supposed to see. That’s why I’m burning up,” she thought to herself.

“I’m fine. It’s because the temperature of the air conditioner is too high. Plus, I’m feeling hot after doing so much work.”

Lauren breathed out in relief, but when she saw Joshua being covered under the blankets, she immediately ran over anxiously. “Why did you cover him completely with the blankets?”

“Hule”

Yvette pulled down the blanket covering Joshua’s face, and though it had not been long, a flush already appeared on his face.

Panicked, Yvette froze in her spot with the towel in her hands.

“I had only wanted to cover that area of Joshua’s body, so I didn’t control my strength,” she thought in guilt.

Although Lauren did not blame Yvette, the former’s heart still ached to see the unmoving Joshua. Joshua likes to remain clean and is also a self-disciplined person. He doesn’t like people casually touching him. The person taking care of him must be very cautious, as he likes to nitpick.”

After Yvette heard Lauren’s words, her heart sank as she realized that she was too careless and did not take care of Joshua well

“There is some mushroom soup in the kitchen. You didn’t eat much during dinner, so why don’t you drink some?”

“She must be trying to chase me out!” Yvette thought.

As the flush on her face faded away, she took a final look at Joshua on the bed before leaving

“I should give them some space to talk heart-to-heart, Yvette mused.

In the room, Lauren stared at the unconscious Joshua and sighed.

She helped him wear his pajamas before carefully covering him with a blanket.

“I don’t know when you will awaken, so I made Yvette marry you to take care of you. However, she doesn’t look like she knows how. I wonder if it’s good or bad to have such a pretty lady as my daughter-in-law. I’m afraid you will continue sleeping, and one day, I can’t make her stay. I know you can hear me, and it’s just that you don’t want to awaken now. If y you want to rest, then rest. Yvette and I will take good care of you. Well, she’s still a young woman. She’ll become more mature

with time.”

Recalling what had happened two days ago, Lauren pursed her lips and continued, “Hendrick’s old habit is back. Yvette’s face… Forget it. I know you like pretty girls.”

“If I get him an ugly wife, Joshua will be angry when he regains consciousness. Yet, I wish he would get up now and get angry at me. Why is he even more obedient and silent now than when he was born?” Lauren thought sadly.

As Yvette returned to the room, Lauren was just about to leave. Seeing Yvette, Lauren began, “I heard that school is starting

soon.”

Yvette nodded. “The day after tomorrow.”

She would be in her second year of university from that day onward. Soon, she would be able to work and support herself.

“When I can get back to the Towell residence and have the ability to support myself, will I still want to stay here?” Yvette

wondered.

The weather has been hot recently. Why don’t I get the chauffeur to send you to school? Lauren offered.

It was so that Yvette could come back conveniently after school.

At first, Yvette wanted to reject Lauren’s offer, as she did not wish for those in her school to know what had happened to her. However, after some thought, she realized that Lauren wanted her to come back sooner to take care of Joshua. Nodding, she agreed. “Thank you, Mom!”

“Although I don’t know how to take care of him, I believe Joshua will feel less lonely if a person who breathes and talks lies beside him, Yvette thought.

After Lauren left, Yvette lay on the bed and checked the school forum. Many students were starting to return to school.

Sighing. Yvette turned off her phone before turning to stare at Joshua. He lay beside her stilly, sleeping silently and obediently.

Unable to help herself, Yvette leaned down and pressed her face closer to his.

“
