My Reincarnated Wife Is A Little Too Sweet novel Chapter 36

Her mother had already woken up after six hours. The doctor said that she had a strong will to live that is why she work up earlier than anticipated. Her recovery was also going great although she was still weak.

Richard left yesterday in the middle of the night after talking to doctor Martin. He still had a company to manage so he could not stay up all night.

He was worried that Peter might come back to make trouble so he arranged for some bodyguards to stay guard out side the ICU.

Although Evelyn was awake, she still had to be under strict observation so she was still in the ICU but Amanda was allowed to go in and stay with her.

...

"Big boss... it is done." Director Alex called Richard the moment he left the press conference. "You can just wait for good news." 

Although he was older than Richard, but he respected him because most of his movies were invested by R&S group of companies. He had long regarded Richard as his big boss.

"Good. I will let the PR keep the rhythm." Richard said.

"Are you going to use your company's PR team?" Director Alex asked.

"Yes. Is there any problem?" Richard asked with a raised brow although the other party could not see.

"Don't you think that it is a bit high profile. Won't it cause a lot of troubles for Amanda." Alex said, a bit worried.

"You don't need to worry about that. No one is going to highlight that. I will just tell them to do it discreetly." Richard said.

"Okay then. I will start shooting again the day after tomorrow."

"Okay." Richard hung the phone and immediately called Amanda.

"Hey.."

"Hey..." Amanda answered.

"How is auntie. Is she awake?" Although he already knew from the bodyguards, Richard still chose to ask her.

"Yes. My mom is awake. The doctor said it was way earlier than anticipated and that is a good sign. She is going to recover fast." Amanda said, feeling grateful.

For it not for this man, she is sure she would have collapsed long ago.

"That is good news. I will come by in the evening to take a look." Richard said.

"Have you seen the news?" He asked.

"Yes. Thank you again. I really don't know how to repay you." Amanda said.

"Haha... you don't have to thank me. It is my obligation to help my girl." Richard said, smiling cheekily. 

Amanda was caught off guard by the sudden attack that she almost dropped her phone.

"Err.... are you not busy?" She decided not to dwell on the topic since this man was so unpredictable. Amanda did not dare think of what will follow.

"Just finished the morning meeting. I'm drinking coffee." Richard answered simply.

"You need to drink less coffee from now on. Too much coffee will make you not be able to get enough rest." Amanda could help but say subconsciously.

"Do you care about me?" Richard asked, pleasantly surprised. 

Only then did Amanda realize what she has said. It was way out of line. But she could not control herself meaning she maybe cared about him. But Amanda would never admit it.

"Of course not. Don't think too much about it. I will be hanging up now. You should get busy with your work." She hanged up swiftly before Richard could reply. Her heart was beating too fast the it almost jumped out of her skin.

Richard on the other hand just smiled and shook his head amused. His girl was probably caring about him but she was shy to say it. Anyway he did not continue drinking coffee and instead switched to tea.

"Was that Richard?" Evelyn asked all of a sudden.
