Burning Love Cute Husband and His Little Wife

350 The Man in the Dark

The three of them sat around the small table and ate dinner. Jayden and Jane looked back and forth at each other. Isabella’s fork fell to the ground and she kneeled to pick it up. That was when she saw Jayden’s and Jane’s legs were together...

OMG.

Isabella felt that she was an extra.

After finishing the meal, Isabella took the initiative to wash the dishes so that Jayden and Jane could be alone. As she washed, she saw the two of them go into Jane’s room.

Isabella thought for a moment. She cleaned up the kitchen, picked up the garbage, and shouted at Jane’s room, “Jane, I’m taking the garbage out! Then I’ll go for walk! I’ll come back later!”

“Okay! Isabella, take your phone and be careful. Come back early!” Jane replied.

“No problem!”

Isabella changed her shoes and left with the garbage in her hand.

It was done in five minutes. Isabella looked at the time on her phone. It was 7:30.

.....

Jane had always been a bold girl who did things as she wished. Isabella did not know when Jane got together with Jayden. They didn’t seem to cross paths with each other. But Jane seemed to be interested in Jayden and was determined to get him...

In that case, Isabella wouldn’t go back too early to get in their way...

So she stayed in the park next to her apartment for two hours and went back around 10 o’clock.

The apartment that Jane rented was near the school. Although the interior decoration was exquisite, it was an old building. So when Isabella walked to the alley in front of the building and found that the street lights had broken down, she was not surprised.

Isabella took out her phone to light up and saw a tall man standing in the darkness not far away. He had a cigarette in his hand and leaned against the wall to smoke.

Isabella felt sacred.

There were not many people here, and now it was after 10 o’clock. Seeing a man standing in the dark was really...

Isabella stopped and wanted to take a detour. The man saw her and walked towards her.

Isabella was shocked. As she quickened her pace, she took out her phone to call Jane. Suddenly, she felt that the man behind was also speeding up.

Isabella ran. The man immediately caught up and grabbed her shoulder. A familiar and low voice was heard, “Isabella...”

Isabella paused and when she looked back she saw a gentle and handsome man standing in front of her. She was in disbelief. “Cedric...”

In the operating room of the Peace City Hospital.

After two hours of surgery, Gerry’s thumb was planted back.

“Fortunately, this is a hospital. The surgery was just in time.”

The doctor walked out and said to Joseph, “He has to rest for a while. Take good care that it doesn’t get infected.”

There was a pile of cigarette butts at Joseph’s feet. He asked, “Will this affect him in the future?”

“It is hard to say.”

The doctor continued, “Theoretically speaking, even without this finger, he can also live a normal life. However, it is hard for it to return to a normal state. There are lots of factors to consider, medical treatment, the patient’s state of mind, the degree of exercise, the confidence of self-recovery, and so on.”

“That is to say, it is possible to return to a normal state, right?” Joseph wanted the doctor to give him an accurate answer.

“Yeah, you can say that.”

“Okay. Doctor, you’ve helped a lot.”

“Thank you, Mr. Joseph.”

The door of the operating room opened. The nurses and staff pushed Gerry out. Due to Gerry’s earlier resistance, the doctor had given him anesthesia. Now, he was lying on the bed, looking like he was in a coma. However, when he saw Joseph, his eyes lit up and he shouted, “Mr. Joseph! Give me another chance! Mr. Joseph! My life is yours!”

This scene made Joseph recall the night many years ago when Gerry was covered in blood and sought his help.

The doctor and nurses stopped the cart. Gerry grabbed Joseph.

Joseph looked down at Gerry. Gerry was holding Joseph’s hand tightly, and he looked so terrified. Joseph’s eyes darkened. “I forgive you. Take good care of yourself. If your finger recovers, you can come back. I don’t need a disabled man.”

“Yes, Mr. Joseph!”

Gerry was so excited that his eyes turned red. He finally relaxed and was pushed to the ward by the staff.

Gerry let out a sigh of relief. Joseph meant what he said. So Gerry didn’t need to worry.

Joseph sank into deep thought as he walked down the corridor.

All the memories from years ago and those difficult days rushed back.

He knew that Gerry had a tough personality, but he never thought that Gerry would use such an extreme method to prove himself.

Gerry had been abandoned before, so he was very dependent on Joseph. Gerry was loyal to Joseph like a faithful dog. Gerry put all his hopes on Joseph.

In the past few years, did Joseph hurt people, like Isabella and Gerry?

And Joseph never noticed his own problem!

At Jane’s apartment.

Cedric and Isabella returned to the apartment and Isabella poured him a glass of water.

“Isabella... Why don’t you ask me how I found you?”

“If you want to say it, you can tell me. If you don’t, I won’t ask.”

Isabella paused and continued, “Actually, there is no need to think about it. I know you found me through that phone. There is a GPS on it, right? It was the same back at the Civil Affairs Bureau. You found our location through the phone.”

Cedric lowered his eyes. “I wasn’t stalking you. I saw you being taken away by Joseph and suddenly remembered that my phone had this function, so I used it in a hurry. I didn’t mean to disturb you tonight. I just wanted to see if you were okay from the window.”

Cedric hung his head down, his face was full of bruises, and the wound at the corner of her eyes was still bleeding a little. It was obvious that he had not dressed the wound.

Isabella said softly, “I’m sorry, Cedric. You got injured today because of me.”

Cedric immediately shook his head. “I don’t care about this at all...”

“But Isabella, I want to know how you feel about me! It’s over between you and Joseph, isn’t it? He cheated on you, so there is no way that you will still be with him, right? Even if you can’t accept me for the time being, you won’t be with Joseph, right?”
