I mean getting a marriage certificate means we're going to be married forever.” Justin explained the seriousness of the matter to her even though he doesn't mind getting married to her.“ I know, or you don't want to get married to me?” She looked at him with those cute puppy dog eyes.

Is there something you would like to eat? I'll ask the caregiver to get it..” he asked and she shook her head negatively..“ Well I'm going to order some food whether you like it or not.. I know you have been skipping meals lately..” “ Look if you want to starve yourself to death, do it somewhere else and not my hospital..” Sternly reprimanded her and this made her chuckle..“ I'm sorry..”Stefan immediately ordered food for her and also took it upon himself to feed her like the gentleman he was..“ When am I going to get discharged from this prison?” She jokingly aske
“ Get out now!” Diane screamed on top of her lung and in the process she fell off the chair and the woman immediately tried to go Close but was suddenly stopped when someone grabbed hold of her forearm roughly..“ I think you're done here, Ma'am..” Stefan said with a stern expression.. I'd just gotten out of the OR and was on his way to check on Diane who was getting discharged only to bump into the scene before him..Seeing who the man was, the woman smiled nervously..“ I'm sorry, Lord Stefan..I -”“ Get out of my hospital.” Stefan cut her off before she could say anything else and dragged her out the room before shutting the door with a bang..The nurse was helping Diane back on the Wheelchair but he stopped the nurse and insisted on doing it himself.“ You may leave now, Emily.” Stefan dismissed the nurse as he effortlessly carried her off the floor and placed her back on the wheelchair and immediately checked for any scratches.Diane didn't dare meet his eyes as she looked down o
“ Would you like me to feed you?” Stefan asked and Diane looked at him like he'd grown horns..“ You don't have to worry I'll manage.” She tried not to shutter as she spoke and picked up the cultery but of course Stefan wasn't going to take no for an answer as he took the cutlery from her and quietly cut her chicken into tiny piece before bringing one go lips..Diane wanted to say something but swallowed he'd grievance and let him feed her even though she was embarrassed as hell.Her eyes had turned red from embarrassment..Stefan fed her without saying a word.“ What about you?
