Chapter 1781 Rest


    Le wanted to say something but decided that it wasn''t worth it.


    She drove to a nearby supermarket. ''I have to buy something. It''s going to be inappropriate if I go there


    with empty hands, '' she thought.


    When Charles had finished everything, the hotel manager arrived at the hospital.


    Bowing to Charles, he said politely, "Mr. Lu, how is Mrs. Lu?"


    Casting a nce at the manager, Charles coldly replied, "She''s fine."


    Charles was quite satisfied with the hotel''s service. They knew Melissa had been hospitalized, so they


    sent their lunch to the hospital.


    After giving Charles the lunch, the manager excused himself and left. Shortly after, Melissa woke up.


    Helping Melissa sit up, Charles asked in concern, "Mom, how do you feel? Are you feeling alright?"


    "I''m okay," Melissa answered weakly. There wasn''t any color in her face.

    Melissa didn''t have to say that she was feeling ufortable, as Charles could already see that she


    was with his own two eyes. She just didn''t want to say anything because she didn''t want Charles to


    worry.


    "Mom, do you feel like eating?" Charles opened the packed lunch the hotel manager had brought and


    pushed it over to Melissa.


    Melissa ate the food upon Charles'' insistence.


    "Mom, do you like the food?" Since Melissa was eating slowly, Charles thought that she might not have


    liked the food.


    Melissa put down her chopsticks and looked at the worried Charles, shaking her head. "The food is


    fine. I just feel so weak and useless."


    Charles didn''t know what Melissa was talking about, and a puzzled look appeared on his face.


    "We came here to travel, but here we are at the hospital! All because of me! How can we travel now?"


    Melissa said.


    That was thest thing on Charles'' mind. He smiled helplessly and assured his mother, "Mom, don''t


    worry. We can travel when you feel better. Anyway, we''re already here in Mysia. Once you feel


    better, we''ll go anywhere you like."


    "Okay, then. I was afraid that you would me me."


    After Charles consoled Melissa, she felt much better. Her appetite also improved.


    Charles couldn''t help but smile when he saw that Melissa was enjoying her lunch.


    After lunch, Melissa took a nap. Charles took this opportunity to talk to his mother''s doctor.


    "Knock knock!" "Please,e in!"


    the doctor called.


    When he saw Charlese in, he smiled and said, "You can rx. Your mother''s fine. She can be


    discharged tomorrow. Just don''t get her too tired, okay? Are you just traveling here?"


    Nodding, Charles answered, "Yes. Does that make a difference?"


    "She needs a lot of rest. Maybe you should just stay in the hotel for the next few days." The doctor


    couldn''t help but sympathize with Charles, who was obviously feeling helpless.


    However, Charles wasn''t disappointed to hear that. As long as Melissa was alright, it didn''t matter


    whether they could go out or not. He then asked the doctor about a couple of more things regarding


    how to take proper care of his mother before he left the hospital.


    He went back to the hotel and asked if Melissa''s room could be cleaned. The doctor had said that she


    could be discharged tomorrow. He thought that it would be better to have Melissa''s room thoroughly


    sanitized so Melissa wouldn''t get sick again.


    Melissa wasn''t really sleeping. As soon as Charles left, she quickly took her phone out and called Le.


    Meanwhile, Le was anxiously waiting for Melissa''s call. As soon as the phone rang, she answered it


    right away.


    "Aunt Melissa, are you all right?" Le knew what their n was, and she also knew that Melissa was


    excellent at pretending to be sick. Still, she acted as if she was worried, just to get Melissa to like her


    more.


    Melissa smiled upon hearing the concern in Le''s tone. She answered happily, "Le, don''t worry


    about me. I''m fine. Juste here. I''ll wait for you."


    "Okay! Aunt Melissa, please, wait for me." Le''s voice was trembling, but she managed to control


    herself.


    After she hung up, she headed towards the airport.


    Nancy saw Le leave the house with some luggage. She couldn''t help but feel suspicious, so she


    called Charles to tell him what she''d seen.


    Charles was quite busy, and he wasn''t able to answer her call. She tried calling him several more times


    until she finally gave up.


    The next day, Charles woke up quite early. Maybe it was because the weather was hotter in Mysia,


    so sleepingte wasn''tfortable.


    After grabbing a quick bite for breakfast, he went straight to the hospital.


    The moment he arrived at Melissa''s ward, he heard Melissa chatting with one of the nurses. There was


    a warm smile on Melissa''s face. He waited at the door for a moment before he knocked and went in.


    When Melissa saw Charles, her smile brightened even more.


    The nurse was equally delighted to see Charles. She didn''t expect Melissa''s son to be this handsome.


    Looking at Melissa, she excused herself. "I have to go now. See youter."


    "Okay! Thanks for the nice chat!"


    Melissa liked her nurse. When the nurse left, she beckoned for Charles toe nearer. "Charles, I


    know you know how weak I am. I have something to tell you."


    "Mom, just spit it out. Stop being so mysterious."


    Charles had no idea what Melissa was going to say, but he was able to catch a hint of nervousness on


    her face. ''What could it be?'' he wondered.


    "Since we''re already here, we can''t go back just because I''m sick. I called Le yesterday, and I asked


    her toe here. That way, she can take care of me, and you can go ces with her..." Melissa said


    with anticipation in her eyes.


    There was a strange look on Charles'' face. She couldn''t help but worry that Charles was going to reject


    her idea.


    Then the strange look turned into surprise, then hesitation andstly, a frown. Eventually, he said, "No


    problem. Since you already called her, I can''t do anything about it anymore."


    Even though Charles didn''t really want Le toe, he didn''t show any of this. He figured Melissa''s


    health was more important, and he''d do anything to get her to recover.


    Melissa could tell that Charles was a bit annoyed, but he just didn''t say anything. She heaved a small


    sigh and thought to herself, ''Thank God he didn''t say anything.''
