Chapter 161: 142. I love you, and I want the whole world to know
I refuse to move in before we’re married, absolutely not!
Right now, it’s Michael Gordon living in her house, so it’s like she has a man-slave to serve her. But if she moves into his house, it’s asking to be severely abused in bed!
Michael Gordon: "..."
So she likes him to be submissive!
If she had said that earlier, he could have been even more submissive!
"Mr. Gordon, Miss Larson is here to see Mrs. Gordon!"
The nurse at the door gently rapped and reminded them that since Michael Gordon had forced Ivy Aretha into an unresisting marriage, everyone in the hospital inexplicably addressed her as Mrs. Gordon!
Ivy didn’t care much and didn’t bother to correct them at first. Later, she got used to it and let it be since it’s just a title.
When Alya Larson came in, Michael was helping Ivy practice walking on the floor. He carefully supported her while reminding her where to exert herself. Annoyed, Ivy mumbled, "Michael Gordon, as a grown man, why are you nagging like an old lady!"
What a harmonious scene!
When has Michael Gordon, known for his domineering and bewitching nature, been so gentle?
It’s the first time she’s seen it in all the years she’s known him!
Six years ago, she knew Michael had a woman named Ivy Aretha in his heart. At that time, she had just discovered the secret and quietly followed him to find out. She’d only caught a glimpse of Ivy a few times and never had a chance to meet Ivy face-to-face before Michael suffered from amnesia.
It is said that he lost his memory after being knocked out on the bed by a woman. Alya wondered which woman could be so violent. Now, it seems that Ivy, who had a child with Michael, knocked him out back then. The child must have been conceived around that time!
It’s impressive that this man has gone through six years of amnesia and reunions!
How could he still remember her, a woman who had hurt him when he had forgotten even his own past? How much love does it take to reconcile?
"Ivy, it’s so great that you’re able to walk now!"
Alya had to speak first; if she didn’t, it seemed as if they hadn’t even noticed her around, absorbed in their own world as if she had no effect on them!
"Yeah!" Ivy stopped walking and looked up when she heard Alya’s voice, seeing her neatly dressed. "You can be discharged from the hospital now, right?"
"Yes, I’m being discharged today!" Alya’s eyes stayed on Michael’s hand supporting Ivy, and after a pause continued, "Ivy, I’m sorry for the accident that day. I wasn’t driving carefully, which led to both of us being seriously hurt and almost losing our lives!"
It was a miracle Ivy survived when Alya thought she must be dead for sure. Even the truck driver died in the accident. The fact that Ivy survived unscathed was nothing short of a miracle!
She had been staying in the hospital for nothing these days!
"No need to apologize, who would want an accident to happen? They’re called accidents for a reason!" Ivy laughed as Michael helped her to the sofa to sit down, "And it’s not just my life that was almost lost. Wasn’t it the same for you?"
Ivy figured Alya couldn’t be blamed for the incident, accidents could easily happen when driving while talking on the phone. At that time, when Alya answered a call, her face changed, so it must have been about something important!
Thinking of this, Ivy couldn’t help asking, "By the way, when we had the car accident last time, I noticed your face changed after you took the phone call. Was there a problem? It’s all resolved now, right?"
Ivy just asked out of care and concern, but didn’t expect Alya’s face, which had just regained its color, to turn completely pale!
People with guilty consciences are prone to emotional fluctuations, after all!
Ivy didn’t notice but Michael, with his quick-witted mind, suddenly felt a sinking feeling in his eyes. His brow furrowed slightly, and his gaze fell on Alya’s pale face. After three seconds, he raised his voice, "I remember your driving skills were pretty good, and you usually do well in racing. How could you be so careless this time?"
Michael’s words sounded casual, but his sharp gaze made Alya shiver. She almost forgot that she and Michael first met while racing!
"At that time, my mom called me, she was arguing with my dad and threatening to leave home. I was so upset and distracted that I didn’t notice!"
Despite everything, Alya involuntarily explained!
"No wonder your face turned so pale then. Are your parents okay now?"
Ivy never thought someone could be so desperate as to endanger both Alya and herself. "You just need to coax them a little, elderly people can sometimes be like children!"
Ivy didn’t pay attention to Michael’s casual question, thinking Alya was really just upset by the phone call and caused the accident. She even comforted Alya!
"Mind your own business!"
Michael sneered coldly and handed Ivy the cup of water, "You can’t even take care of yourself properly, yet you pretend to be a saint and meddle in others’ affairs!"
At these words, Alya’s face went pale by inches, her legs weakened, and she nearly fell!
Michael’s words were not only expressing his dissatisfaction but also warning Ivy to stay away from Alya!
"Ivy, since you’re recovering well, I can stop worrying. I’ll leave now, so you can rest!"
Watching Alya practically flee the room, Michael frowned deeply, staring at the door where Alya left. After a while, he looked down at the absent-minded Ivy sipping her water, "What did Alya say on the phone when she lost control of her car?"
He was curious what kind of phone call would have agitated Alya, always so calm and composed, to the point of losing her sense.
Michael could hardly believe that Alya, a near-pro female racer, would have such a serious accident on that road, with Ivy almost losing her life and Alya only appearing to be severely injured but having no life-threatening damage.
He found it strange that day that Alya, who was driving, had such a serious accident. He even asked Lucas Sandy to check it out!
Her expression just now was also a bit strange. He merely mentioned it, yet her face turned so pale!
It seems necessary to investigate this matter thoroughly!
"Michael, what are you thinking about? You’re so lost in thought!"
Only when she looked up did Ivy notice Michael’s gloomy face, with his brow still knitted and his gaze fixed on the door Alya had left!
"It’s nothing!"
If she didn’t notice, it’s better not to let her know. She would probably have a phobia if she knew the last car accident involving Bianca Aretha was intentional, and if this one was intentional too!
After all, it was he who brought those calamities upon her!
"Why are you frowning if it’s nothing!" Ivy suddenly realized Michael’s frowning face wasn’t as pleasing as his shameless, clingy one!
"I was thinking about when would be the right day to get our marriage license!" Michael lowered his head and planted a deep kiss on her forehead, "Today would have been a good day, but unfortunately, you’re still in the hospital, so I feel very sad!"
Ivy: "..."
