To the Love of My Life

Chapter 778: Chapter 778: The Most Romantic Proposal (8)

In the past, she had always hoped that he would propose to her, but after she and Madeleine had an accident, she temporarily forgot about that. Now, seeing someone else’s marriage proposal scene, her heart became even more filled with longing and envy.

Ruby Gregory couldn’t help but subconsciously turn her head, looking at Steve Burton by her side, wanting to see his expression when witnessing such a beautiful and touching scene.

As a result, she saw Steve Burton staring straight ahead at the now-clear road, then stepping on the gas, skillfully steering the wheel, and continuing to drive forward.

Steve Burton’s face was calm and indifferent, as if the passionate scene just now, to him, was nothing more than a fleeting, unimportant matter.

It turned out that she was the only one moved by the marriage proposal, and Steve Burton didn’t care at all… Ruby Gregory’s mood couldn’t help but feel a bit down.

After Steve Burton and Ruby Gregory left, only Madeleine and Howard Coleman were left in the hospital room.

Originally, when Steve and Ruby were there, the lively atmosphere instantly became somewhat cold.

Finally, Madeleine stood up, saying, “It’s time for dinner, I’m going to find the nurse.”

After saying that, Madeleine glanced at Howard Coleman, whose expression did not change in the slightest, as if he hadn’t heard her voice.

Madeleine lowered her eyes to hide her slightly disappointed eyes, and then turned and walked out of the ward. @@novelbin@@

About ten minutes later, the door of the ward was pushed open, and the nurse who had been taking care of Howard Coleman since he woke up walked in, with a food tray in her hands. She smiled and placed the dinner neatly on the mobile table, then pushed it in front of the hospital bed, saying gently, “Mr. Coleman, it’s time for dinner.”

Howard Coleman had been stabbed in the right shoulder, and although the stitches had been removed, holding chopsticks was still somewhat unfamiliar, so he could only hold a spoon with his left hand to eat. Consequently, the nurse had to stand by to help serve soup and vegetables during meals.

Both meals and companionship for Howard Coleman were provided by the nurse, and having been together for several days, they grew somewhat familiar with each other. While the nurse was helping him serve the soup, she couldn’t help but smile and ask, “Mr. Coleman, is the young lady who keeps you company every day in the hospital your wife?”

Howard Coleman’s left hand, holding the spoon, hesitated for a moment, then, knowing that the nurse was talking about Madeleine, he lowered his head, took a sip of soup, and mumbled an “Mm.”.

“Mr. Coleman, your wife is so good to you.” The nurse picked up the vegetables with chopsticks, placed them in Howard Coleman’s bowl, mixed them with rice, and brought them to Howard Coleman’s face: “Your daily meals are carefully prepared by your wife. She spent quite a bit of money to rent a stove in our cafeteria with the help of the dean. All the ingredients are personally selected by her from the supermarket. Just now, she asked me to take care of feeding you, saying she was going to the supermarket to buy food for your meals tomorrow.”

Howard Coleman stopped drinking the soup, wanting to ask, “Is this food not prepared by the hospital?”, but in the end, he chose to remain silent. Instead, he finished the soup in one go, and flashed the nurse a shallow smile, before pulling the bowl of rice mixed with vegetables and elegantly began eating without a word.
