Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Chapter 290 - We Postpone For Next Week

"I'm sorry Lisa, but we better postpone our referral next week. Something happened on my trip..." Oscar said softly from across the phone.

The man's voice sounded suspicious, Lisa's anxiety was getting stronger and stronger. She held her cell phone tightly, trying to calm herself as well as her foggy mind.

"Oscar, what happened to you? You're not trying to lie to me are you?!" Lisa asked sharply. She shouldn't have asked the question but without realizing it, her hunch had already made her say.

"Lisa, I'm sorry but..." Oscar replied from across. There was a long pause before he finally continued, "I had an accident on the road. I'm in the hospital. "

Hearing Oscar's reply just now immediately made Lisa's heart beat very fast. Her palms began to sweat, her feelings of restlessness grew, and her lips trembled. Her tongue was tied so that she could not answer her future husband on the other side.

"Accident!?" Lisa said frantically.

"Lisa, please I don't want you to panic, I'm fine. You don't have to worry. You better go back home, after the doctor has finished examining me, I'll be back," Oscar replied calmly.

"I CAN'T! I have to go to the hospital! Which hospital are you in? Don't reject me, Oscar, I am your future wife!" Lisa said in a high voice, between annoyance and restlessness mixing together.

"Lisa, take it easy, I'm fine," Oscar replied, trying to calm Lisa's feelings.

"Oscar, I asked which hospital you were in. Answer now!" Lisa replied firmly.

Unable to prevent Lisa from visiting him, Oscar then took a deep breath and replied, "I'm at Siloham Hospital."

"Hang in there, I'll go there now. Don't go home yet!"

Shortly after hanging up the call, Lisa immediately asked permission to postpone their marriage next week. With a heavy heart, she left the house and rushed to the hospital where Oscar was being treated.

Meanwhile, in the emergency room at Siloham hospital, Oscar's arm was wrapped in a cast and tied with a support that was draped over his shoulder. He looked down at the room filled with people with various medical conditions with a languid gaze.

Not long after, Lisa's figure was seen running from the entrance towards Oscar, who was lying languidly on the bed. The man glanced at Lisa out of the corner of his eye, he was too limp to move his neck.

"Oh my God Oscar, what happened to you!?" Lisa asked, worried. She touched Oscar's head and rubbed it. When she examined the surface of the blonde haired man's face, there were several scratches on his handsome face.

"We had an accident in the middle of the way, Miss Lisa," Dani said from behind Lisa. The man was not seriously injured, only a few scratches on his face and arms.

Lisa's eyes immediately filled with tears when she looked at Oscar's injured figure. Without realizing it, she bursted out crying, her voice filled the emergency room. The gaze of all patients and visitors was immediately fixed on Oscar's bed.

"Lisa, honey... Please don't cry out loud. Are you not embarrassed? People's eyes are on us," Oscar said while gently stroking Lisa's shoulder. He looked at his future wife with a guilty face.

"Oscar, how could an accident like this happen? God, you make me worry!" Lisa said, holding back her uncontrollable tears.

"Lisa," Oscar replied as he pulled the woman closer to his bed and leaned against the edge. "I'm fine, just a fracture."

"Just fracture? You said the fracture was just a minor accident!? Oscar, please!" Lisa replied, looking anxious and irritated. It was clear that she hadn't just seen a broken bone. The woman was sure that there was more fatal damage to Oscar's body after the accident.

"Oscar, you're not trying to hide something from me are you !? Why don't you tell me? Why are you always hiding problems from me?" Lisa asked again, this time looking very worried and suspicious in her eyes.

Hearing the question just now, Oscar could only be silent. He looked away from Lisa's gaze then cleared his throat. "Lisa, you don't need to worry. I'm fine, I'm still alive right?"

"Idiot! I am your future wife, how can I be calm if you keep covering up your problems?" Lisa replied curtly. Her eyes were teary again.

"Lisa, I'm sorry. But I will make sure that I really am okay. It's just a small accident, no big deal. You better not think too much about it. Besides, the doctor let me go home today," Oscar replied, trying to calm Lisa's already confused heart.

Oscar's words just now made Lisa's heart a little calmer than before. She hugged Oscar tightly and then kissed his forehead affectionately.

"I will take care of you until you finally recover," Lisa said while holding Oscar's hand.

***

At home, Lisa helped Oscar down and took him to the room. Behind them, Dani carried Oscar's briefcase and placed it beside the man's bed.

Lisa helped Oscar deliver the house clothes and then gave him the medicine prescribed by the doctor. "Honey, don't forget to drink it. I'll make you porridge, okay? Just take a break first, don't overwork yourself!"

When Lisa came down to the kitchen, Oscar called Dani. The burly man with a frightening face lowered his body and said, "Is there anything I can do to help sir?"

"Mr. Dani, I want you to find out who hit our car on the road earlier. I suspect that the hit and run was intended to harm me," Oscar said quietly.

"Mr. Oscar, I also think so. The perpetrator just hit the passenger seat, I suspect this was on purpose!" Dani replied firmly.

"Okay, I want you to keep this a secret from Lisa too. I don't want to worry her," Oscar added, snapping his fingers. Without saying much, Dani immediately looked down and left Oscar's residence.

Half an hour later, Lisa came from the kitchen with a bowl of porridge and water for Oscar. Today she looked like a good housewife. Cooking for a sick husband and caring for him.

"Here's the porridge, don't forget to finish it! This is so your stomach won't get upset when you take the medicine later,"  Lisa said while feeding her future husband.

Oscar looked at Lisa with a smile as he opened his mouth to receive Lisa's spoonful of porridge.

"Why are you looking like that?" Lisa asked in surprise, her brows knitted together.

"Am I not allowed to look at the pretty face of my future wife who is very caring and devoted?" Oscar replied with his deadly rash. A wicked smile appeared on the corners of his sexy lips.

"Hey, don't boast! Just eat until it's finished. If you don't finish it, I'll twist your ears!" Lisa replied, pinching Oscar's ear gently.

In return, the man only laughed dryly. 

"Lisa, once my arm is healed, I promise to take you to vow our marriage. I'm sorry I canceled it,"  Oscar said softly, his face was filled with guilt.

Lisa pressed Oscar's lips with her index finger then replied, "Ugh, don't blame yourself! Nobody asks for sickness, let alone wishing for an accident, right? The important thing is you have to rest a lot and take the medicine so that you can quickly recover!"

"You said I lied to you earlier on the phone, right? I'm afraid you will consider my accident as my reason for tricking you," Oscar teased with a chuckle.

"Ugh of course no! Your hand is clearly broken.. How are you going to lie with that anyway?" Lisa replied irritably.
