Chapter 3091
Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, “Robyn didn’t return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.”
“Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?” Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.
John and Robyn turned pale at this.
It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?
John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. “Anne, it’s just a misunderstanding…”
However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.
Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, “Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you’ve never even hugged Mommy and me like this before?”
John turned to glance rather frantically at Anne.
Anne had a small smile as she stared at them, her expression calm as though this was just an ordinary occurrence. It did not seem as though she minded seeing John being so intimate with Robyn, but he could not help but wonder if that were true.
“Hey, this is getting out of hand!” snapped the nurse who wheeled Anne in, frowning at John and Robyn in
disapproval. “You’re siblings, aren’t you? How can you behave like this? You can’t go around touching your own sister like this just because your wife is sick!”
She stormed forward and pulled John and Robyn apart. “Are you really siblings, or are you just bluffing? How can you leave your wife and daughter behind while sneaking around with another woman? The audacity!”
The color drained from everyone’s faces. Robyn instinctively took a step back and stammered, “I… This is a misunderstanding… This is not what you think at all…”
She bit her lip and turned to stare at Anne, tears brimming in her eyes. “Anne, you have to believe me. I’d never do such a thing with John. Please don’t doubt us just because of her baseless accusations. We…”
Before she could even finish, John shoved her aside and staggered toward Anne. He managed to make it all the way to her side before finally crumpling onto the ground in a heap. He lifted his head to meet her gaze worriedly. “How did you and Sammie get here?”
He held Anne’s hand and said in a trembling voice, “You’ve never left the house ever since we moved here from Banyan City. You were always reluctant to even be admitted to the hospital, but now you’re here… Did you do this for me?”
Anne reached out to gently stroke the wound on John’s shoulder and nodded.
“This is amazing, Anne.” John was so touched by Anne’s gesture that he could not hold back the tears. “This is amazing!”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
