Chapter 746 Hostage

The next day, Melissa woke up to find that she had slept through the whole afternoon.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and tried to settle with the sudden brightness of light.

“Huh,” She purred and slightly opened her eyes.

Murray was sitting beside her, and when he saw her waking up, he immediately stood up and moved towards the table placed there. “Have some water,” He forwarded a glass and was trying to comprehend her movements.

Meanwhile, without looking at his face Melissa held the glass and took a sip from it. The extra silence in the air was making Murray confused, he frowned and tried to spot the reason behind it.

“Maybe I am overthinking,” He shrugged.

The next moment he tried to break the silence and cleared his throat.

“Are you feeling better?”

His hand was now resting on her shoulder.

“Hmm,” She hummed.

The sudden change in her behavior was evidently noticed by Murray but he ignored it when the nurse entered the room with a bowl of white porridge. A smile crept at his face when he thought about the ways he was going to adopt to make Melissa eat that. “Look you have to…” He started but she cut him in between.

“Give it to me,”

Surprisingly, she neither didn’t complain about the food nor did she show tantrums after looking at the porridge which was an epic moment in itself.

Moreover, she obediently drank it without uttering a word. The scene in front of Murray was good but it was making him uncomfortable. The unusual behavior of Melissa was enough to increase his worries.

“You aren’t complaining about anything today. What’s different?”

He jokingly said and raised his left eyebrow. But silence filled the air once again.

“If I tell him that I know the truth of the deteriorating state of my health then maybe he will start blaming himself for everything.”

A thought struck Melissa’s mind. To avoid that, she decided to act normally.

“It’s nothing, it just feels delicious all of a sudden.”

“For a change I found that delicious. And when I saw that surprised expression on your face, I thought it was worth it.” She smiled.

“You indeed surprised me today.” He nodded his head and took a sigh of relief as he threw all the suspecting thoughts out of his mind.

“By the way we need to go to the police station. They asked about your presence only if you are feeling better.”
