Afterwards, he could bring her grandma över…
That would cheer her up, right?
By the time Wayne got back to H City, it was already late at night.
In the special care ward of the Rosso family’s private hospital.
Wayne pushed in through the door.
“Wayne, you’re here!” Maddie quickly got up.
Heatherway was lying in the hospital bed with a bloody gauze on her forehead. She was awake, and it seemed like there was no problem anywhere else.
“What happened?” Wayne asked in a deep voice.
“Mr. Wayne, what kind of tone is this?” A middle-aged woman wearing a meticulous uniform stood next to Maddie.
Wayne had seen her before. She was the housekeeper of the Heatherway family.

“Jones…” Heatherway gave her a tug.
‘Jones, Wayne is just worried about Heatherway.” Maddie saw that even a Rosso family’s servant dared to be cold towards Wayne and immediately raised her chin.
“Ma’am, today was the day my young lady and Mr. Wayne were supposed to pick a banquet venue. The young lady was overjoyed and had told this to Mr. and Mrs. Rosso long time ago. Now things had ended up like this, and both Mr. and Mrs. Rosso are worried and doubting the sincerity of the marriage between the Silverman and Rosso
families!”
“So?” Wayne asked coldly.
“Mr…” Jones’s arrogance was instantly suppressed for the most part.
Wayne looked at Heatherway, “I told you, I don’t mind where you want to hold the wedding reception, or what kind of style you go for your wedding!”
“Wayne!”Maddie didn’t expect that Wayne would turn the tables on Heatherway.
“Did I cause your car accident?” Wayne continued to be aggressive.
“No…” Heatherway’s face turned pale, “I told mom and dad that I wasn’t familiar with the road and hit a fire hydrant…”
“Good.” Wayne glanced at Jones and continued, “Ms. Rosso, our marriage is a win-win alliance for the interests of both families. But if anyone thinks they can threaten me with this, we both probably need to cool down and think carefully about whether it is really
necessary for us to continue working together.
“Wayne, what are you talking about?” Maddie scolded.
“Auntie, Wayne is right.” Heatherway looked at Wayne and said softly, “This is Jones’s fault today. I apologize for her.”
Jones’ face turned pale.
She didn’t expect such a big reaction from Wayne when she just whined a few words.
But… Wayne was clearly in the wrong today.
She had checked Wayne’s itinerary.
After leaving the hotel, he went straight to the airport and to Q City.
His secretary, who was rumored to have an unclear relationship with him, was also in Q
City.
He wasn’t going for work at all.
Miss Heatherway was so distracted all day because of his absence that she had a car
accident!
And now, it was Heatherway who was apologizing!
Wayne was good at the carrot and stick strategy.
He softened a bit, “Are you alright?”
Heatherway’s eyes were red, and she shook her head grievously, “There was an airbag, so I’m not seriously injured.”
“You silly girl!” Maddie looked heartbroken, “How can you say you’re not seriously hurt?? You had a concussion and sprained your hand!”
Only then did Wayne notice that Heatherway’s right hand was in a cast.
Heatherway lowered her head, looking pitiful and saying nothing.
Maddie glared at Wayne.
“Heatherway has to stay in the hospital for observation overnight. You stay with her!”
Wayne remained silent for a moment before finally agreeing, “Alright.”
“Heatherway, Wayne has always been like this since he was little, distant and not good at caring for others.” Maddie turned to apologize to Heatherway, “It’s a working progress, after you two get married, you can gradually teach him!”
Heatherway shyly nodded her head. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
But… not good at caring for others?
Heatherway recalled the scene when Wayne tried to pick up Secretary Tesdal anxiously, not even caring about the glass shards.
