Capture Her Heart After Marriage

"Yes, that's what Ms. Chi said," the nurse said, pointedly not looking at Aunt Song.

Alexia smiled. "Okay, you can leave now."

"Huh?" the nurse asked in confusion.

"I'm not going to see her. Look at me now. I can’t get out of bed." Alexia lifted her left hand, which was in a sling. “And even if I could, I wouldn’t want to.”

She had nothing to say to Evelyn. Especially with everything that happened the last time, still fresh in her mind. Evelyn was a black-hearted lotus and felt it was better for her to avoid it, lest something even worse happen.

The nurse didn't expect Alexia to refuse so simply and was at a loss for words. "Ms. White, I know this is very difficult for you, but Ms. Chi said that she must see you, otherwise..."

"Enough!" Aunt Song couldn't stand it anymore and cut the nurse off as she moved to stand protectively in front of Alexia. "Otherwise what? Otherwise, Ms. Chi is a human being and Ms. Alexia isn’t? If Ms. Chi wants to see Ms. Alexia, Ms. Alexia must see her. What kind of reasoning is this?"

Alexia nodded in agreement with everything Aunt Song was saying, tired of Evelyn always being in charge.

"No..." the caregiver responded, so anxious that he was on the verge of tears, and hastily waved his hand to explain. "I didn't say that, that’s what Ms. Chi said."

"I don't care who said what!" Aunt Song said, taking a step closer to the nurse and waving her finger in his face. "You go back and tell her why Ms. Alexia isn’t coming over. Ms. Chi wants to see Ms. Alexia, then she can come down herself!”

"Ms. Chi has just had surgery and can't come over," the nurse muttered in a low voice, scowling.

Aunt Song let out an exasperated laugh. "Ms. Chi has just had her operation, but Alexia didn’t? Don't forget, it was Ms. Alexia who selflessly underwent her operation to save Ms. Chi’s life! If it weren’t for Ms. Alexia, Ms. Chi may not even still be alive! Ms. Chi should be groveling to Ms. Alexia, not demanding she put herself at risk for petty requests!"

"That..." the nurse started, before closing his mouth, having the sense to not say anything else.

Aunt Song pushed the nurse toward the door in disgust. "Okay, okay, enough of this! Hurry up and get out of here! Ms. Alexia won’t be leaving! If Ms. Chi wants to talk to Ms. Alexia, then she better call or come down herself! If she doesn’t, then I guess they won’t be talking!"

Bang!

Aunt Song slammed the door behind the nurse after shoving them out of the room.
