Chapter 47 Go Against Her

Melissa realized that she had said the wrong thing. Coughing awkwardly, she explained, “I learned Taekwondo in school.”

Taekwondo?

Murray chuckled and didn’t reply to her.

Soon, they arrived at the hospital. Just as Melissa said, Murray’s wound was not serious. And fortunately, Murray’s leg wasn’t fractured. It was only a soft tissue contusion, and Murray would be fine in a few days.

Only then did Melissa sighed in relief. “Fortunately, you are all right.”

“You care about me?” Murray looked at Melissa.

“Yes, I care about you. Is it wrong? After all, you got hurt trying to save me.” Melissa smiled, though thinking actually it’s no need for Murray to save her, she can survive by herself.

“Use this ointment three times a day. Take these two boxes of pills twice a day, separately in the morning and evening.” The doctor gave instructions for taking the medicine.

“Got it. Thank you.” Melissa carefully noted it down.

When Melissa and Murray left the hospital, it was past midnight.

“Let’s go to Moonlight Mansion.” Murray suggested.

“We don’t go home?” Melissa asked.

“It’s late.” Murray smiled faintly.

In fact, he didn’t want Sarah knows about his injuries. On the one hand, he wouldn’t want Melissa to be criticized by Sarah. On the other hand, Murray did it for his own sake. If they returned home, Melissa would stay in the guest room, but he was eager to stay with her alone.

Marc was right. Murray thought; he should try to know more about Melissa.

At midnight, the street was quiet.

Murray leaned against his seat, squinting at Melissa, who was driving. The neon lights outside shone on Melissa through the car window, making her ineffably gorgeous.
