Chapter 2312 Hinting


    This was the first time yton admitted his identity so frankly after his return.


    He felt like he was risking everything and letting go of a huge burden.


    yton could not avoid this.


    The seemingly gentle middle-aged man in front of him seemed to be able to see through his identity


    and thoughts at a nce.


    Thus, he had to admit that he was yton because Malcolm called him over using Nicole’s


    drunkenness as an excuse.


    yton stood there, and Malcolm could not help but size him up. When Malcolm saw that yton had


    to use a cane, he felt a hint of sympathy.


    However, this shoring did not seem to affect yton one bit.


    In just a few minutes, Malcolm roughly figured out how powerful yton was.


    Malcolm smiled lightly, looked at yton’s pale face, and could not help but revel in making the right


    decision.


    “Sorry, I was the one who called you earlier. But Nicole was sent to the hospital because she


    overdosed. Since I was herst contact, the people at the bar mistook me for her friend and asked me


    to pick her up. But I think as her husband and first guardian, you should take care of her.”


    Malcolm emphasized the word “husband”.


    yton frowned slightly.


    “Thanks.”


    His voice was low and hoarse.


    Malcolm said, “You’re wee. Ms. Stanton and I get along well, but she shies away from medical


    treatment, so she probably doesn’t want to see me when she wakes up.”


    yton had a little reaction when he heard that Nicole shied away from medical treatment.


    Malcolm felt that he could control yton’s emotions, but he also knew that yton had a strong


    mental defense and that it would be hard to see through his thoughts usually. His psychological


    defense was stronger than Nicole’s.


    yton only allowed Malcolm to guide his emotions because he was too anxious about Nicole, and he


    could not remain objective.


    “Since you’re back, Ms. Stanton’s illness should recover quickly. In the future, please encourage her to


    take her medicine ande to see me regrly. It’ll be good for her mental health.”


    Malcolm saw that yton was uneasy, but he continued to talk anyway.


    yton looked at the person on the bed with dark eyes while in deep thought.


    Malcolm smiled, lowered his eyes, and thought about it for a moment. He lied and said, “I still have


    another patient to tend to, so I can’t stay any longer. The nurse said that Ms. Stanton will have to stay


    the night. You can change her clothes so that she can have a good rest. By the way, please pay more


    attention to her behavior and tell me in time if you notice anything abnormal.”


    Malcolm’s hint was obvious, and he hoped that yton would discover the truth soon.


    Nicole’s mental illness stemmed from yton, but yton’s return did not make her feel better. This


    showed that the two of them had not yet reconciled with each other.


    What Malcolm could do now was to let them spend as much time as possible together so that they


    could repair their rtionship.


    Nicole and yton needed an opportunity to be alone.


    They were married but estranged.


    yton nodded and sent Malcolm off.


    He returned to the ward and saw Nicole lying there quietly. Her small and pale face had an abnormal


    redness. She had be thinner than before.


    yton noticed that Nicole had lost weight since the time they met on the cruise ship, but he thought


    that Nicole was strong and independent, so she could get through these hard times.


    He could not remain calm ever since he saw the few bottles of medicine in Nicole’s apartment.


    Nicole was not doing well. Instead, she was in very bad shape.


    yton felt like his heart was chopped into pieces, and he was so ufortable that he could not


    breathe.


    In the past two days, yton tortured himself and endured the pain in his legs.


    When yton saw Nicole, all his pent-up emotions seemed to burst out instantly. However, he could


    only sit there quietly as he looked at her carefully with red eyes.

    After a few minutes, the nurse at the door came in quietly and brought in a new towel.


    “Sir, this is a new towel for you to wipe her down.”


    Malcolm asked the nurse for it before he left to push their rtionship in the direction that he wanted it


    to develop.


    yton paused, took the towel, and said, “Thanks.”


    The nurse nodded and left without saying anything.


    yton stood there holding the towel.


    From the moment he met Nicole, they had not had any intimate contact.


    At this moment, there was no reason to avoid it.


    yton looked at Nicole, who was lying there, and frowned ufortably


    Nicole was unconscious, so perhaps he could be braver.


    yton went to the bathroom in the ward, washed the new towel first, and took it out again after he


    wrung it.


    Nicole did not have a change of clothes here, so yton thought that he would just wipe her limbs.


    It was quiet in the ward.


    yton wiped Nicole’s hands lightly. She was wearing a beige long-sleeved shirt, which was made of a


    material that could not get wet. yton was worried that her clothes would get wet, so he rolled them


    up.


    The moment he rolled up his sleeve, his eyes flickered, and he stared at the inside of her arm without


    blinking.


    Blood instantly drained from his face. Even his lips turned white.


    There were five scars of various shades on her arm. His pupils constricted, and he felt suffocated.


    In a panic, yton pulled down her sleeve into its original state and sat there motionless and stiff like a


    sculpture.


    yton looked out the window at the busy traffic.


    He thought about his hesitation before he returned to Mediania. Was it a good thing or a bad thing for


    him to return to Mediania?


    For him, it was no doubt a good thing.


    His family was here. Thus, when he was in the country, he felt some warmth in his life.


    yton was cautiously trying to interact with his family again, but he did not dare to face them.


    What scared him even more was seeing Nicole’s sympathy.


    Nicole was still as bright as the sun and as beautiful as ever.


    But what about him?


    He was wretched and disabled.


    How could he match up to her? Content of Draм??ovels


    However, it was also because Nicole did not let go of his hand at thest moment that he wanted to


    He would rather those scars on Nicole’s arm be inflicted on him.


    yton could not bear to look at those shocking scars.


    yton panicked.


    He took out his phone and Malcolm’s business card with trembling hands and called Malcolm


    immediately.


    yton was careful. He was afraid of disturbing Nicole, so he went out of the ward to make the phone


    call.


    When Malcolm saw the iing call, he knew that it was yton because he had seen that phone


    number on Nicole’s phone.


    However, yton acted faster than Malcolm expected.
