My Wealthy Husband novel Chapter 44

To her, Ewan didn't live up to her expectations. Although he looked outstanding, she knew that her son was protected too well to put up a front for their family. Therefore, they decided to have him engaged with Nova. To Maggie, Nova was good girl who was determined and decisive, the opposite of Ewan. She hoped that Nova could help foster their family with Ewan. And now, her plan was destroyed by Ella. She hated Ella's trick like her mother's, and blamed her son for getting seduced by sex. Because she had been unpleased with their marriage and fed up with Ella's recklessness, Maggie used up her patience.

Ewan frowned at seeing her, asking, "She goes to the washroom. Mom, why are you here?"

In case of being surrounded by onlookers there, Maggie tried to keep calm and asked in a low voice, "I am concerned with Nova."

Ewan kept quiet. At the moment he knew that Nova had a car accident, he wanted to go to the hospital but he finally didn't because he was not Nova's boyfriend but Ella's husband. Then he visited the Graham instead. Actually he was not sure whether he still loved Nova or not and he became upset about everything, even sick of the way Ella behaved. He now often treated Ella with irony and mockery.

"Not too bad. She was protected," replied Ewan.

Maggie shot a glance at him, "If you were not so stupid, Nova wouldn't fall in love with other men."

"But she doesn't love anyone," Ewan interrupted, "Mom, please avoid that topic. I am now Ella's husband so I hope that you won't compare her with Nova even if you don't like her."

Maggie was a bit annoyed at his words and turned away.

Ella happened to come back and notice Maggie there. She smiled apologetically and said, "Hello Mom. I seem to suffer from diarrhea.I am so sorry to have you wait so long, Darling."

Ewan shook his head and hurried her, "It's your turn."

Ella smiled and whispered, "Try to please Mom for me."

Ewan smiled and helped her in.

Maggie was not satisfied at what Ewan did, and when she turned around, she received a message. After she clicked on it, she found a file of photo which she always treated as an advertisement and deleted at once. But this time, she downloaded it in a short time. Looking at the photo, she became so rigid and enraged that Ewan noticed her change.

"What happened, Mom?"

Maggie put back her phone, looked at where Ella was, and said repressively, "I have to go. Take care of your wife."

It seemed that her last five words were full of annoyance, and Ewan was confused.

When the nurse left, Jason had no patience again. He withdrew the needle and said, "Eric!"

Eric suddenly had a nasty feeling.

Five minutes later, Jason in a hoodie wearing a cap to hide his wound looked at Eric, his impersonator, receiving transfusion on the bed. He smiled and said, "When the nurse came here, you remember to turn around without clothes and she won't discover."

Eric was uneasy and asked, "What's that medicine? Any side effect?"

"Just normal saline and it will be gone after you empty your bladder. Don't worry, man. "

Jason smiled in a tricky way.

"When will you come back?"

"Very soon."

Jason dressed himself up and said generously, "I will award you a higher salary next month. Only you get a pay increase for three months in our company. Work hard, dude. I trust you."

Then he swaggered out without hesitation.

Looking at Jason's back, Eric complained that his work was much harder than the others.

Nova was not resting, and instead she contentedly sat on the bed reading a magazine. Without raising up her head, she took Maggie for Jason and smiled, "You manage to escape from the nurse's observance."

Maggie was stunned slightly and said softly, "It's me, girl."

Nova was silent for a while and then she closed the magazine, smiling, "Oh, it's you, Aunt Maggie. Please have a seat. "

Maggie sat beside her and whispered, "Are you OK? Does it ache?"

Nova shook her head, "It's less painful now. And the doctor said I would be fine after resting for a month."

Maggie nodded. Looking at her good friend's daughter, she sighed, "I fail to teach Ewan well to make you sad."

She needed to say sorry to Nova. If she cared less about the Robinson's reputation, and spoke for Nova, Nova would have been happier.

"I am OK. It's luck for me to get informed of the reality before the wedding. Ewan loves Ella and I will never destroy their marriage. My mother was unfortunate to marry my father, which teaches me to marry someone who really loves me."

Maggie bit her words. After a while, she asked in a stage whisper, "If Ewan gets divorced with Ella, will you become his girlfriend?"

Nova said, "I was brought up with Ewan. Our relationship is more a friendship than love, which, however, cannot let me absolve him from his betrayal. You know, I cannot love him again. It will devour me! "

Maggie looked at her and smiled bitterly, "You are such a good girl. Who doesn't like you? My son will regret one day."

Nova smiled in silence, thinking that she didn't care whether he would regret or not.

Maggie left after telling Nova to take good care of herself. Although noticing Maggie felt deeply sorry, she just smiled, for what happened in the past was predestined.

When Maggie was away, the door was opened again quietly and Nova discovered Jason sneaked in with a red cartoon hoodie. Before he closed the door, he looked around to check and then locked it. He acted like a pupil who was late for the school, which amused Nova. He's not as young as a teenager, but his childish behavior was cute instead.

Nova was astonished by the thought. To cover up her embarrassment, she asked, "Don't lock the door. A nurse will come."
