When Love Comes Late

With effort, Lindsay tried to prop herself up, her voice laced with concern.

“I need to see him.

”

“Ma’am, you need to stay in bed,” the nurse insisted, her brow furrowed in concern.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Lindsay looked at her with desperate eyes.

“Could you please bring me a wheelchair? I need to see him for myself.

I won’t stop worrying until I do.

Please.

”

The nurse, realizing she couldn’t sway her, let out a resigned sigh.

“Alright.

Just wait here.

”

“Thank you,” Lindsay responded, her tone grateful.

Shortly after, the nurse returned with a wheelchair and assisted Lindsay into it.

Without troubling the nurse, Lindsay wheeled the chair to the next ward herself.

True to the nurse’s words, Matthew lay there in a coma, his usually vibrant face deathly pale.

Sitting by the bed, Lindsay gazed unblinkingly at him.

It was only in such moments that she could face him openly and without reservation.

Her hand moved slowly, reaching out to caress Matthew’s pallid cheek as she drifted into her memories.

The evening before the accident, a cryptic message had arrived from that mysterious man.

He had warned of imminent action and urged her to brace herself.

However, she hadn’t anticipated that his action would involve gunfire.

In the ensuing chaos, her initial instinct was to shield herself, and then seize any chance to rescue Matthew.

But it quickly became apparent that the group of people were targeting Matthew.

She quickly realized that the shooting incident had been orchestrated by that mysterious man.

Matthew was vulnerable, unprotected, and Fernando was nowhere in sight.

That was when a stray bullet struck Matthew.

Concealed in the shadows, Lindsay searched for the right moment to intervene.

Seeing their guns pointed at Matthew’s head, she immediately dashed out, ran to him, and wrapped her arms around him…

Her reverie was shattered by a sudden cough.

Frozen, she turned toward the sound.

She suddenly realized that Matthew was awake.

Excitement mingled with a twinge of nervousness.

She doubted whether her weak attempt at deception had fooled Matthew at all.
