Substitute Bride For Young Master
Chapter 97's
Raymond continued to stand by Lorie's side of the bed until I knew how long. He did not budge even though the nurse had reminded him to treat the wounds on his body due to a fight with Daniel. The man just kept quiet and looked at Lorie who was sleeping quietly.
Until finally when his sleepiness was no longer held, he went to the sofa and curled up there. He had thought it would be difficult to sleep in such a state, but who would have thought that once his body lay down, his consciousness was faint in an instant.
Although it was in an inadequate state, it was the first time Raymond had been able to sleep soundly for the past three months. It was as if all the burden on his shoulders was shrinking drastically. There were no more nightmares and anxieties that haunted her every time she closed her eyes.
Perhaps due to being too sound asleep, Raymond did not hear when the door of the room opened, followed by firm footsteps and a little rush to Lorie's bed.
It was the woman who opened her eyes first when she heard the subtle movements nearby. His eyes stared unfocusedly at the man who was putting a package of whatever on the table beside his bed. He glanced at the wall clock near the wardrobe. It's still six in the morning.
“What are you doing here so early?” asked Lorie in a hoarse voice.
Daniel who was surprised because of the question coming from behind his body almost dropped the package in his hand. It was fortunate that his reflexes were good enough that he managed to hold back the breakfast he had just bought. He turned around and looked at Lorie with a guilty expression.
“Did I wake you?” tanyakanya.
“No, I just woke up,” denied Lorie. He did not want to make the man in front of him feel bad. Anyway, his sleep last night was pretty good. He feels a little fresher now.
“Oh. Then incidentally, I saw a porridge shop next to the hospital, I was also a little worried that you didn't fit the food menu here so I stopped by and bought it for you. The seller is an aunt from .. oh, Korea .. right, she is from Korea. He said this porridge is very good for patients who are recovering because it uses a lot of natural spices that are very good for health,” explained Daniel while moving both his hands in the air awkwardly.
After he finished saying that long sentence in one breath, his face looked slightly flushed. Perhaps due to noticing her excessive enthusiasm, it might also be because Lorie continued to stare at him without blinking. In an instant Daniel felt the oxygen in the room was shrinking so drastically that he almost gasped. However, when he saw the corner of Lorie's lips twitch slightly and there was a glittering light in the reflection of her eyes, Daniel's tense shoulders instantly decayed.
“I look silly, don't I?” ask her a little embarrassed. He realized his face was still bruised and blue because he was beaten by Raymond last night. Although it has been treated, the bruise can not immediately fade.
Lorie held back her laughter and shook her head slowly. Daniel's usually handsome and perfect face now looks like the color of clothes that fade, blue and purple everywhere. There were even blood stains on the left side of her lips, while the right corner of her temples was still swollen. However, Lorie did not want to make any comment. It was not him who told the two men to fight.
Daniel's earlobes are getting red and he doesn't know what to say. He looked a little clumsy, not knowing where to put his hands, so he finally took the package back on the table and opened it.
The man took out the porridge from the package and poured the contents into the bowl in the drawer of the closet. The steaming hot steam gives off a very fragrant aroma. It faintly smelled also the aroma of spices among the aroma of meat and vegetables.
“Looks like that Korean aunt didn't lie to you, very fragrant ..” said Lorie who still wants to tease Daniel.
Daniel only pretended to glare at Lorie so that made the woman's laughter echo in the room. At the end of the sofa, Raymond frowned and opened his eyes slowly. He was in a daze for a moment, but in the next second the harmonious scene ahead made his consciousness return quickly. He jumped up and charged toward Daniel.
“What are you doing here?” snapping while pulling Daniel's collar.
“What are you doing?!” Daniel asked back. The porridge in his hand almost spilled.
A violent aura of hostility instantly emanated from Daniel's body. He brushed Raymond's hand away, but it was as hard as an iron clamp.
“Who let you in? She still needs to rest, why wake her up so early?” urged Raymond. “Truly do not know the rules.”
“Is this your home? Are you an*jing keeper so I have to ask your permission first? He is awake and does not mind for breakfast, why are you acting unreasonable?” reply Daniel.
Were it not for holding a bowl of porridge, it would have seemed that he would have gotten up and fought with Raymond again.
