Chapter 133: Mistake on the previous Chapter.

"Just as you see."

Twenty minutes later, Liam raised an eyebrow, triumphantly adding his point.

He arrogantly held up Maureen’s hand in front of the trio, swinging it purposefully to show them clearly.

Had it not been for his broken leg, he could have flaunted their fingers intertwined right in front of Drake and Niel’s eyes.

As soon as Maureen showed a preference for him, he became delighted again, his confidence soaring, entirely forgetting who had been sobbing earlier while shampooing his hair.

Though shocked, Niel and Josephine had a sense of ’it was about time.’

Their emotions were complicated for a moment.

Josephine felt like his best friend had gained a lover, and wondered if he was going to be left behind, thus he looked at Maureen sorrowfully. Maureen’s face flushed hotly.

Niel, on the other hand, eyed Maureen with uncertainty.

He was not completely confident about her - was she really in love with Liam? Could he possibly face another heartbreak later?

Despite the situation, it wasn’t appropriate for Niel and Josephine to utter any words that might dampen the mood.

Josephine mumbled, "I should have guessed it earlier, when Maureen and I were chatting, she couldn’t go three sentences without mentioning Liam—"

Before he could finish his sentence, Maureen interrupted by covering his mouth.

She has a reputation to uphold, okay?!

Her eyes desperately signaled Josephine: Is it appropriate to bring this up in front of so many people?!

"Tsk, I knew."

Liam’s ears blushed, but the corners of his mouth curled up to the sky.

He wished Josephine could say a little more.

He didn’t even know when he was referred to as Maureen, started falling for him. When he moved into Liam’s house, it was certain that Maureen didn’t like him.

And when they went to the western restaurant with Richard and the Donald family, it was certain that he didn’t like him either.

So when did Maureen start falling in love with him??

Was it at a certain moment?

Once Liam found out when that moment was, he might repeat it thousands of times in front of Maureen!

He pretended not to care on the surface, but in fact, he watched Maureen eagerly.

He hoped that Josephine could reveal more, but Josephine was stopped by Maureen before he could finish his words.

His heart was scratching, and he just couldn’t show that he wanted to listen.

Being stared straight at by Niel, Josephine, and Drake with the looks that said ’Maureen, you actually hooked up with Maureen,’

’Maureen, you actually hooked up with Liam,’ ’You two have been dawdling for so long, I’m getting annoyed,’ - Maureen began to feel somewhat uncomfortable.

She blushed and deflected, "Don’t just stand here staring at us, have some fruit?

Would you like some grapes? I will go wash some."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Liam was not happy.

He stared at her closely, his hand tightly holding onto hers: "Don’t wash fruits for them."

Three of them: "..." Liam’s face was full of displeasure as he continued: "Washing fruits with cold water in the dead of winter will freeze you."

Niel couldn’t help but say, " Liam, this is a VIP ward!"

Seriously, how could a VIP ward bathroom not have hot water?!

Liam glared at Niel and Drake,

"What are you two grown men doing, demanding that a girl wash fruit for you?

Can’t you do it yourselves?! Are you, like me, suffering from a broken bone?"

Niel speechlessly shed tears, "Fine, fine, I’ll go wash it.

Maureen, you just sit tight."

Niel picked up the fruit bag and headed to the washroom.

As Liam watched him enter, he turned his head and asked Maureen, "What do you want to eat? I’ll ask him to wash more."

Maureen: "..." Niel and the other two: "..." We’re leaving! I’m blinded! I don’t want to stay a minute longer! Before Niel and the other two could get their takeout from Maureen, Liam again urged them to leave quickly.

His reason was that he did not buy their lunch.

If they did not want to go hungry, they had to fend for themselves.

The three of them had only planned to come for a visit.

Besides Niel, none of them intended to stay for long.

So, they just packed up the snack wrappers they had been eating and planned to leave.

However, when they opened the hospital room door to leave, they saw Mr. Boris pantingly carrying a box with over a dozen takeout containers.

The three of them: "..." So this is what he means by not buying us lunch?

Enough food for ten people is here! We’re leaving! The three of them overturn the dog food in front of them, resolutely bidding farewell.

After finishing lunch, Maureen opened her schoolbag, took out the exercise book, and started doing her homework on the coffee table.

Doing her homework here was the same as doing it in the library, plus the heating here was even better.

Liam pretentiously picked up a book, but his mind was not on the storybook at all.

He wanted to be closer to Maureen, who arranged the layout of this ward, why is the coffee table several meters away from the sick bed?!

From a distance of four or five meters, Maureen felt he was secretly watching her, thus unexpectedly she looked up.

But she just saw Liam immediately retract his gaze, with a flushed face, he continued to stare intensively at the storybook.

Maureen couldn’t help but laugh, "If you want to look, then look."

Moreover, now he could look openly, why sneak around? Liam would never admit it, his gaze continued to fall on the storybook, seeming to be extremely focused.

He gave a humph through his nose, didn’t lift his reddened handsome face,

"Of course I look if I want to, you are already mine, why do I have to sneak a peek.

I did not sneak a peek — but you, little mask, don’t disturb me reading my book."

Maureen asked, "So what is the book you’re reading about?" Liam: "..." Liam was at a loss for words and began to skim through the content in front of him madly, "It talks about——"

Before he finished speaking, Maureen moved the small stool to the side of the bed. She also brought her pencil case and exercise book, calculator over.

She lifted a corner of Liam’s quilt on the bed, "I’ll do my homework here."

Liam, "Not writing on the coffee table?" Maureen glanced at him, suppressing her flushing face: "That’s too much."

Liam: "..." Liam’s ears silently turned red.

The next day was school, and by late afternoon, Maureen could only be sent back to school by Mr. Boris.

Fortunately, Liam’s fracture was not serious, there was no evident displacement.

After setting it in plaster, he could be discharged in three days.

During the forty-plus days of recovery, he could move about with the help of crutches or a wheelchair, which wouldn’t affect going to school.

Maureen found Liam really amusing.

When she was leaving, he clearly wanted to say something, staring at her with eagerness.

His expression ostensibly read, "When will you come to see me, will you still like me when you come back?", he clearly wanted her to go see him when after school the next day and the day after that.

But instead what he said was, "Maybe you shouldn’t come, little mask, I’ll be going to school in three days anyway.

You can only stay for a while after school, it’s a waste of your study time."

Not wanting to listen to his endless grumbles, Maureen said straightaway, "Shut up, I’m going to come."

Liam turned his head, lifted a shy smile on the corner of his lips, seeming quite satisfied. ...

Starting a serious romantic relationship, Maureen felt a bit unreal for a while, the afterglow of that heated morning hadn’t faded in her mind yet.

Every minute and second she saw Liam, her heart felt a tickling sourness, with tiny desires sprouting.

She spoke boldly, things like "I want to kiss you."

However, in reality, Maureen was quite timid in this aspect.

Because of their intense shyness, the two had only kissed on the corner of their lips once.

Just a sip and it ends.

A dragonfly touches the surface of the water gently. Before she could figure out the taste, the brief sensation of a shock separated them.

Maureen felt slightly annoyed.

But, this gentle kiss was of great significance to her potted plant - after all, it was her and Liam’s first kiss.

Suddenly, the potted plant sprouted a new tree.

Shooting up to 425.

Four months ago, Maureen, who was trembling with fear while reaping Liam’s fortune, never imagined her progress would go so smoothly.

She wouldn’t even have to endure the winter.

She was on the verge of completely breaking away from her supporting character’s destiny.

=========

The next day was Monday, and the whole building became aware of Liam’s fracture.

The international class deliberated whether they should buy some flowers and send them over.

Other classes were elated - a fracture, just like that? Some from the Evergreen Class were running around spreading the news, even bursting out in laughter.

People knew Liam had been a local tyrant in the school for a long time.

When they saw him, they would usually take a detour, not daring to harm him even slightly, even in a fight, it was always the other party who got hurt.

He had never suffered a single scratch! But now, he has broken his own leg.

The Evergreen Class immediately became boastful.

Without Liam, the little boys of the international class had no confidence when they spoke.

They were like eggplants struck by frost, trying their best to avoid the students from the Evergreen class.

During the second class in the afternoon.

Taking advantage of Liam’s absence, she wasn’t stared down by him anymore, Noella came once again to find Maureen.

In just a few days, Noella’s complexion had noticeably worse compared to before, making her appearance rather somber.

Even though she had made a bet with Maureen about dropping out, Maureen didn’t really make her drop out, turning the page on that matter.

However, due to Bianca’s involvement, she couldn’t help but face some behind-the-back talks in the class.

These gossip were heartbreaking to her.

Unlike Ann, she didn’t have thick skin and had cried numerous times in private.

On Monday during the flag-raising ceremony, she saw Maureen standing in the front row.

It was only then that she remembered she had bought a new backpack identical to Maureen’s.

However, she was too emotional when she apologized last time and forgot to give it to Maureen.

So, Noella made another journey to find her.

"You can take it back," Maureen still didn’t accept her new backpack.

It wasn’t because she wanted to deliberately embarrass her.

The backpack that Noella had thrown into the garbage bin, had no stains left after Maureen had washed it clean during the training night.

It was just as good as new.

Moreover, with only half a year left in high school, this backpack had been gifted to Maureen by Liam.

He felt there was no need to change it. Maureen said: "Mine is clean now, no need to replace it."

Noella’s face turned from pale to flushed, she had no choice but to take the backpack back.

After that, she didn’t come to find Maureen anymore.
