Chapter 223


    Chapter 223 Nichs, Don’t Marry Her


    “Be good. I promise I’ll be back in no more than three days, Nichs assured Nancy.


    Nancy, upon hearing this, didn’t want to keep nagging and simply nodded, saying, “You can’t lie to me.


    “I won’t.”


    After getting up, she went to the kitchen to bake a cake.


    In the evening, they had dinner together. Since they had eaten too much, she packed the cake to be


    eaten on the ne.


    As Nichs and Nancy walked out of the neighborhood, Nancy felt a sense of reluctance.

    The wind outside was quite strong, so Nichs immediately tightened Nancy’s clothes and said. “It’s


    cold outside. Don’t send me off. Go back quickly.”


    She shook her head and replied, “I want to see you off. At least until Lynn’s car arrives.”


    “Okay”


    While they talked, he put a hat on her head and secured her bag.


    Nancy teased, “You’re practically wrapping me up like a burrito.”


    “Burritos are good; you won’t catch a cold, Nichs said.


    They walked a little farther and after a few minutes, Lynn’s car arrived.


    Upon seeing the car, Nancy naturally felt deeply reluctant. However, no matter how reluctant she was,


    she had to say goodbye.


    “Please take care of yourself over there. Don’t take unnecessary risks and don’t go off the grid,” she


    advised earnestly.


    “Okay” Nichs nodded in agreement and asked, “Don’t you have anything else to say to me?”


    “Goodbye. I’ll be waiting for you toe back.” Nancy waved.


    The next moment, he tugged on her hand and she was instantly pulled into his embrace


    Nichs lips came down firmly upon hers.


    Not far away, Christian, who had just approached, froze when he saw the mummate and beautiful


    scene


    in front of him


    His hands were in his pockets, and his eyes were fixed on the intimate and beautiful scene before lum


    He suddenly forgot how to react


    He had been conflicted about whether toe here to Bud Nancy


    In the end, he couldn’t resist his inner feelings, so he had his driver take him around a few times. He


    couldn’t have expected toe across this.


    Under the night sky, the duo held each other tightly, looking like the most affectionate and lingering


    lovers.


    They were intertwined with each other.


    Their feelings were so passionate and fiery.


    In fact, Christian never really had a chance upon careful reflection.


    Originally, he had thought about burying this emotion deep in his heart and not letting anyone know


    because he knew that there was no possibility for the two of them.


    But a few words from his sister had given him encouragement and strength.


    When he came here, he had even thought about whether he might have a fair chance topete with


    Nichs.


    But at this moment, he felt like he had lost.


    He was defeated without a fight.


    In the end, he and Nancy could only be friends.


    Well… Friends it is, then!


    At least it was better than not being able to see each other again andpletely losing contact.


    He was satisfied with it.


    With a lonely smile, Christian turned around, and his figure quickly blended into the night, without


    anyone knowing that he had ever been there.


    When he got in the car, he called Luciana. “Lucie, I hope you can help me keep this secret.”


    Luciana didn’t ask many questions. Since her younger brother was asking this, it probably meant that


    this trip wasn’t going smoothly and wasn’t pleasant. She didn’t need to ask many questions, all she


    needed to do was to support and trust him unconditionally.


    Due to the time difference, when Nichs arrived, it was the middle of the night where Nancy was. As


    such, he didn’t call her but sent a WhatsApp message instead. Nancy, I’ve arrived. I miss you


    His assistant immediately took him to the hospital. Madelline was still in the intensive care unit, lving in


    bed with tubes attached all over her body. From a distance, she appeared lifeless,


    “Mr. Sallow, everything is ready. You can change into a sterile suit and go in


    ‘Okay’


    After talking to the doctor. Nichs changed into the suit and entered the room


    She was lying there, herplexion pale. Her wrists were wrapped in thick bandages, and her entire


    body looked almost lifeless.


    At this point, the doctor came in and patiently instructed, “Mr. Sallow, you can talk to her more. Say


    things that can spark her fighting spirit and hope. This way, there may be a glimmer of hope”


    “Okay. I understand.”


    In the end, Nichs stayed there for several hours.


    He called her name and told her not to sleep. He urged her to wake up, and he made sure that she


    would wake up.


    However, the effect was not very obvious. Madelline continued to lie quietly on the hospital bed without


    any response.


    At this point, the doctor entered again and asked, “Mr. Sallow, if I may ask, what is your rtionship


    with her?”


    “We’re friends.


    “But from what I know, Ms. Madelline seems to really like you. She admires you all the time. I suggest


    you say some words she likes to hear. For example, you can say that you like her too, that you love


    her, that


    you’ll


    marry her as long as she’s willing to wake up, and so on. These words can motivate her to wake up,


    the doctor said confidently.


    However, Nichs looked directly at the doctor and firmly refused without thinking. “Sorry, I have a


    girlfriend and I love her very much. I don’t want to make promises about marriage to any woman


    besides her.”


    other


    “Mr. Sallow, what I said were just expedient measures. It’s not the truth. I only said that to wake M


    Madelline up. Don’t take it too seriously, the doctor exined.


    “Even so, I can’t bring myself to say those words. Nancy is the woman I love. I will only marry her” Just


    as Nichs finished speaking, the instruments on the bed suddenly emitted intense sounds.


    It was clear that Madelline’s emotions had fluctuated.


    The doctor checked the situation and said excitedly. “Mr. Sallow, keep going. ording to what just


    happened, Ms. Madelline must have reacted to some of the words you said. That’s why the machine


    made such loud noises.”


    “Which sentence was it?” Nichs was puzzled


    Im not exactly sure, but you can repeat the few sentences you said just no


    “Okay”


    “Nancy is the girl I love and I will only marry her As he said this, the machine suddenly made tuleuse


    sounds again


    The doctor rushed over excitedly andmented, “If I’m not mistaken, Ms. Madelline must have had a


    strong reaction and stimtion to this sentence, which is about you marrying someone else. She’s


    conscious now and she can hear some of the words you’re saying. Mr. Sallow, you have to continue to


    stimte her. Do it fiercely.”


    of my


    “I am deeply in love with Nancy. Despite having hurt her in the past, I am determined to spend the rest


    life making it up to her. Madelline, I only owe you, but my feelings for Nancy are genuine and profound.


    I hope you canprehend this. Please stop being stubborn and cease causing harm to yourself.


    Nancy is the love of my life, and you are merely a passing acquaintance. Once a rtionship is over,


    there is no point in clinging onto it any longer.”


    Madelline’s machine suddenly started shing and emitting intense sounds.


    In a sudden outburst, she cried, “No, Nichs. Please… please don’t marry her.”
