Spoiled my CEO husband after Rebirth novel Chapter 4

"Gwenda..."

Unwilling to hear more from Martin, Gwenda pressed on the call button beside the bed and said to the nurse, "Hello, there are two strangers in my ward. Could you please send them away? They are disrupting my rest!"

Not long after, the nurse came in and said, "This is a hospital ward! Please leave immediately!" driving them out effectively.

...

As they left, hatred flashed through Gwenda's eyes as she sneered in thought.

"What a shameless pair!"

Looking at the closed ward door, Gretchen began to sob.

...

Feeling bad for her, Martin reached out to bring her into his arms. "Alright now, you don't have to take her words to heart."

"Martin..." Gretchen called out softly to him with tears rolling about in her eyes. She looked so pitiful.

...

...

Moved by this sight, Martin felt hot all over with his throat going dry. "Did she hurt you?"

"No, but my sister, she..."

"Don't worry about her. Since the cat's out of the bag, just let her be. I'll talk to her in a few days."

"I didn't mean to hurt her..." Gretchen sobbed miserably.

...

"It's not your fault."

Martin soothed her gently, "Alright, stop crying. I'll take you home first. Okay?"

Gretchen sniffed. "Okay."

"C'mon." Martin had an arm around her as they walked toward the lift.

But at this time, a man passing by suddenly bumped into Martin.

Otto deadpanned at Olivier as he thought to himself, "She's in a bad mood. Are you sure that she won't kick you out?"

...

After those two left, the ward fell silent.

Gwenda slowly regained her composure as her fury ebbed away. She hugged her knees, feeling drained before dropping her head into them and squeezing her eyes shut.

Right after that, the door opened once more, but Gwenda heard nothing.

...

She only realised that someone was in the ward with her when she felt a warm presence near her. That person radiated a sense of calm, causing her head to snap up quickly. A handsome face came into view.

Olivier?

"You..."

Gwenda paused for a moment, surprise flashing briefly through her eyes before her vision moved up to the large hand that had landed on her head.

"I thought you were crying."
