Healing my disabled husband novel Chapter 269

Aimee and Patrick were told that they could be sent away when it was dark.

Such a point in time was actually not friendly.

However, the two can understand that the reason why Veggia was mysterious was that it cannot let outsiders know how they got here.

If they were sent out during the day, it would be easy for them to remember what route they were taking.

This was absolutely not allowed to happen by the people of Veggia.

However, they didn't know that such a defense would have no effect on Aimee, because her vision at night would not be affected at all.

She did indeed memorize the route silently, just in case.

However, the person sent by the village head to send them away didn't actually follow them all the time. After sending them halfway up the mountain, he said, "Go the rest of the way by yourself."

After speaking, he left without looking back.

Aimee and Patrick glanced at each other, but didn't stop him.

Although, in the current situation, letting the two of them go down the mountain alone was almost equivalent to sending them to death, if it were someone else, he or she might directly die halfway up the road.

However, for the two of them, it was relatively easy.

After confirming that the person had left and would not return, Aimee and Patrick took out the hard hats they were wearing before from the backpacks.

And then they illuminated the surroundings and observed the road conditions.

What made them more helpless was that the current situation was more dangerous than they expected.

The so-called climbing up a mountain was easy, but going down was difficult. This was already the case for mountains with stairs, not to mention that what they needed to face was this kind of barren mountain.

It was almost impossible to go down the mountain from here just using their climbing tools.

Aimee was a little speechless. No wonder the person who sent them away was gloating when he left just now.

In particular, during these few days, they didn't treat them friendly at all, but just now, he actually smiled at them.

The reason behind this was naturally self-evident.

He firmly believed that even if they were sent out of Veggia, they would not be able to leave alive.

This made Aimee and Patrick dumbfounded.

Aimee looked up at Patrick and asked, "Darling, what should we do now?"

Patrick said, "It's really not suitable for action at night. Let's just wait here for dawn."

Aimee nodded, but said again, "But, darling, it will take at least five hours until dawn. The temperature will only get lower and lower. We may be frozen to death here."

Patrick also thought about this question.

However, the two of them didn't bring many clothes, and those that could keep out the cold had already been worn on their bodies.

In the current situation, if they wanted to keep warm, they can only rely on themselves.

Patrick held Aimee in his arms and said, "I won't let you freeze."

Aimee poked her head out of Patrick's arms, smiling brightly.

In fact, she was not afraid of the cold. Because of her physique, even if the temperature was below zero, she will not feel the cold.

The reason why she said that was she was worried about Patrick.

Aimee said, "Darling, if you feel cold, you must tell me. You can wear my clothes."

Patrick didn't know Aimee's physique, and when he heard her say that, he frowned.

He said, "Aimee, I'm not cold."

Even if he was cold, he would never let Aimee take off her clothes.

Aimee felt a little helpless, but also a little dumbfounded.

She discovered very early on that Patrick really had a strong masculinity. Although it will not be that uncomfortable, he was indeed stubborn in many things.

For Aimee, this was a kind of sweetness, but also a kind of helplessness.

Aimee reached out to hold Patrick's palm and said, "Darling, touch my hand. Don't you think my palm is warmer than yours?"

Generally speaking, the body temperature of men is higher than that of women.

Patrick didn't notice this before, but now holding Aimee's hand, he realized that the temperature of Aimee's palm was indeed higher than his.

This left Patrick speechless and frustrated.

How did he feel that Aimee seemed always to be able not to need him much?

Patrick said, "Aimee, do you think I'm actually useless?"

Aimee laughed at his silly words.

She said, "How could it be? Everyone knows how important you're to me."

She never thought that a man must be stronger than a woman, or that a man must always put women first, even ignoring his own danger. As if, in this case, it can be reflected how much this man loved this woman.

On the contrary, Aimee's firm belief was that everyone should protect themselves first, and this was the best way to treat each other, instead of blindly thinking that they can do more.

It didn't make any sense to do that.

Seeing that Patrick insisted on his own opinion, Aimee had no choice but to say to Patrick, "Darling, let me tell you a secret."

Patrick looked at Aimee suspiciously, thinking about what reason she had.

Aimee said, "Darling, you know, I can be energetic at night without sleeping a lot."

Patrick nodded, having figured this out while he was still paralyzed.

Although it felt amazing, it was not impossible to understand and accept.

Aimee said again, "Then you know, I can see in the dark."

Patrick nodded again, waiting for Aimee's next words.

Aimee smiled and said, "So, darling, I'm actually not afraid of the cold, or rather, I don't actually feel the cold."

Patrick raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and looked at Aimee helplessly.

In his opinion, Aimee deliberately made up a lie in order to give him the clothes on her body.

Aimee knew that he didn't believe in herself.

Being helpless, Aimee could only say, "Darling, I'm really sad that you don't trust me like this."
