Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 165

165 /630

Just as Ariana was about to answer the call, a faint voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

"Don't pick it up."

She froze for a moment, quickly turning to look at the hospital bed, indeed seeing that Lambert had already opened his eyes and was looking at her.

Ariana put down her cell phone and hurriedly sat by the bed, asking, "Are you feeling alright?"

The doctor had said that Lambert would soon wake up. She had been nervous but hadn't expected him to wake up so quickly.

Seeing her so worried, Lambert's slightly pale lips curled up into a beautiful arc.

"No, I'm not feeling well."

Taken aback at his words, she felt somewhat guilty and said, "I'm sorry!"

He chuckled, "But if I didn't shield you, you wouldn't have been able to withstand that blow."

Ariana was slightly moved, only to hear him add, "And if you had gotten a scar, it wouldn't feel smooth to the touch anymore."

Even if she knew he was only teasing, Ariana was somewhat annoyed, "Even right now, you're still cracking jokes!"

She seriously doubted whether Lambert was playing some trick or not. An ordinary person who had just entered the emergency room, even if they had regained consciousness, wouldn't have the energy to talk so much!

The phone rang again. At the sound, Lambert glanced over, seeing Ariana's slightly knitted brows. "Don't pick up the phone for now, let's keep the news of my accident under wraps first, then we can tell my family."

Ariana understood why Lambert was doing this, but didn't understand why the accident had happened.

But, one fact remained: Lambert's private itinerary would not be easily known by others. The only possibility could be...

She hesitated for a while, and tentatively asked, "Have you ever wondered what is the cause of this incident?"

Lambert's beautiful eyes paused briefly, and then he said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Since he had said so, Ariana didn’t think it was right to keep asking.

"Should I get a doctor to check on you?"

Lambert didn't refuse. After the doctor examined him, it was revealed that he was strong and healthy. His wounds on the arm and shoulder were shallow but wide, which led to excessive blood loss. As long as he takes a few days of rest, he could recover soon.

Taking advantage of the time, Ariana arranged for Conan to handle the matter per Lambert's instructions, before informing Jolene and the others.

As expected, Jolene was quite worried about Lambert. However, considering that this matter needed to be kept secret, She had to swallow her worries.

After such a thrilling experience, Ariana felt exhausted. After the doctor left, she wanted to lie down and rest.

Surprisingly, Lambert was staring at her. It wasn't until she noticed that he said while smirking, "Your husband got injured for you, and now you want to leave him sleeping alone?"

Ariana was a little taken aback, and slightly blushed, "Exactly because you are a patient, Lambert, who wouldn't want to be bothered with trivial matters. Moreover, are you even capable now?"

Lambert seemed annoyed at her blunt words and replied helplessly, "Trust me, no man likes to hear his woman doubting his capability."

She slightly frowned, her disgusted face not covered at all.

However, she had to admit, Lambert was capable...

Seeing that Ariana still hadn't moved, he sighed helplessly, "It seems that some women are naturally heartless."

Ariana heard him indirectly talking about her again, and without hiding her displeasure, walked over and sat down by the bed, “Only if you do not find it too crowded!”

After all, Lambert had saved her. She wanted to refuse him but found herself incapable of voicing these words.

Using his uninjured hand, he held hers, signaling for her to come closer.
