There He Is Again, My Ex-Husband novel Chapter 787

"You really don't need me here?" Arthur asked in a serious manner.

Harold gave a firm answer, "No."

Arthur then stood up and said, "Then I will go tell the doctor and nurse to check on you often tonight."

Arthur could tell that Harold really didn't want him to stay for the night, so he didn't insist. He then went to the doctor and nurse and left after he said a few words to them.

After he was gone, it finally became quiet in the ward. Lying on the bed and thinking, Harold found it strange. He was questioning them, but he ended up blessing them.

The more he thought about it, the more regretful he felt. But he had already given them his blessing. There was no turning back now.

"Alas!" Harold pounded the bed and sighed. Then he fell asleep in distress.

When Jean saw Arthur come back, she didn't seem surprised, "Did my dad ask you to come back?"

"Yeah," Arthur smiled evilly, "He said this is the first night we have as husband and wife and told me I shouldn't miss it."

Jean was rendered speechless.

She grabbed Arthur's hand and took him into the study, "I have almost finished designing the rings, come to have a look."

Arthur smiled, "On our marriage night, we are designing our wedding rings together? It's special."

Everyone had his opinion about rings. For Arthur, the wedding ring was a symbol of marriage and loyalty to it. He wanted to wear it and he would wear it all the time.

After they finished designing the rings, Jean sent the design draft to the manufacturer and asked for the rings to be made as fast as possible.

Finally, this day, with a lot of ups and downs, was over.

The second morning, when Jean woke up, Arthur was no longer on the bed with her. A while later, he came back with breakfast.

"I bought us breakfast. We should drop by the hospital and send your dad some." Although he didn't know how to cook, he could at least wake up early in the morning and buy breakfast for the woman he loved.

Jean thought about it and said, "The housekeeper will make him breakfast and send it to him. But since you have bought his share, we can drop by later."

At least, it could show Arthur's sincerity and care.

However, they were surprised to meet Mario, who came to visit Harold, in the hospital.

Mario had already brought Harold breakfast and the two of them were eating and chatting. When he saw Arthur and Jean, Harold was stunned for a moment and didn't feel like eating anymore.

Perhaps it was because Jean had always been indifferent to everything that Harold hadn't expected she would come, which was why he was eating the food Mario brought him now.

But at the thought of the fact that Arthur had become his son-in-law, he felt it inappropriate for him to eat the food Mario brought here.

Therefore, he put down the spoon in his hand and asked, "Why are you here?"

With a calm expression, Arthur walked over and put the breakfast he brought on the table. With a smile, he said, "We got you breakfast."

Seeing Mario, Arthur greeted him with a smile. "Mr. Bartels, you came early."

Although he said it with a smile, it was obvious he was being sarcastic.

Jean and he came here early enough, but Mario was here even earlier. It was enough to see that Mario was just trying to win Harold's favor.

Arthur despised these dirty tricks of Mario's. What was the point anyway? Jean still felt nothing for him,

Mario was just trying to suck the father of the woman he wanted to marry up, which was stupid.

It was already the 21st century. No one would let her parents decide her marriage now.

"Since Jean is here, I should leave now," Mario stood up and said to Harold, "Mr. Hilgard, I hope you get well soon."

After that, he turned around and left.

He had warned Mario, that if the latter still didn't give up, he would take necessary countermeasures.

Staring at his receding figure, Mario gritted his teeth.

How did things come to this?

Why would Jean suddenly marry Arthur?

When he got the news from his friend yesterday, he was in shock.

He had never known Jean as an impulsive person. She shouldn't do such a thing as getting married all of a sudden.

However…

She did. She got married to Arthur.

Mario had planned to pretend as if he had given up, and then, he could break Jean and Arthur up using Harold. By then, he would have another shot with Jean.

But things changed faster than planned. Because of their sudden marriage, all his plan was now in vain.

He really liked Jean.

He had been studying abroad for years and had seen a lot of different women. But he had never seen a woman like her, so outstanding in the crowd because of her indifferent aura.

He was about to succeed in getting her when he lost her to Arthur.

If Arthur was out of the picture…

Thinking of this, he turned around and left. So, what if they had gotten married? People got divorced all the time, right?
