Marrying the Chairman in the Wheelchair のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 111 - チャプター 120

Alden jerked awake from his sleep, his eyes blinking rapidly as his phone's incessant buzzing on the nightstand continued. He quickly grabbed his phone, stared at the screen momentarily, and answered the call."Yes, Sarah?" Alden greeted hoarsely."Where are you? Why aren't you here? Why did you leave me in my sleep?"Sarah's whining tone tugged at Alden's guilt, but he had work to do and didn't want to disturb Sarah's rest."I'm sorry, Sarah. But I have to leave for Japan in the morning. You understand, right? I'm doing this for your recovery. We're trying to find a way to get you better," Alden explained."I'm okay! Why did you treat me like a sick person? You and Kenneth said I was fine, but why haven't I been out of the hospital for two weeks?""Sarah... everything is going to be fine. It's just a procedure; don't overthink it. Think of it as your time off. Okay?"There was silence on the other end."Sarah? Don't be upset,"

After ending the call, the middle-aged woman exhaled deeply and placed the phone on her lap. Her eyes fell on the younger woman sitting restlessly on the sofa across from her. Gloria, of course, was anxiously awaiting news."What did he say? Am I right about Ashton being with another woman?" Gloria asked.Victoria Hemmingway, the elegant middle-aged woman, shook her head briefly. Having Gloria visit her two days in a row was beginning to interfere with her activities, especially since this matter involved her son, Ashton.Victoria had long known Gloria's feelings for Ashton since their youth, but she had never wanted to interfere. Now Gloria was dragging her into it, trying to win Ashton over. But who exactly was this, Hannah, the administrator?There was no way that Ashton would bring a woman along just for fun.Victoria felt her head start to throb."Well, Victoria?" Gloria pressed again."Ashton is on a train, and as far as I can t

Ashton glanced at his watch during the lunch break at the seminar's opening session. He got up from his chair and walked to the corner to message Hannah."Hey, have you had lunch yet?" Ashton wrote.Hannah replied soon after: "I have. I'm at a nearby restaurant, and honestly, I feel like going home."Ashton's eyebrows furrowed, puzzled by Hannah's sudden lousy mood. He began to wonder if Hannah could be feeling homesick. A wave of worry washed over him.Quickly, Ashton typed a reply. "Where are you? I'll come get you right away.""Don't bother. I'll be back in our room soon. I'm not feeling well, so please don't bother me."Ashton's mind went into chaos."If you're like this, I'll only worry more. I'm coming to you now. Send me your location," Ashton muttered as he typed another message.Hannah replied. "I'm sorry, but no need. I'll be fine, please."Ashton walked towards the exit, almost bumping into another doctor as h

During the seminar, Hannah spent most of her time in the room resting instead of going out. She only saw Ashton in the morning because he always returned to the room late at night.Ashton returned to the room before dinner on the last day of the seminar.As he walked in, Ashton noticed that his and Hannah's suitcases were neatly lined up. He saw that Hannah was watching a variety show."Hey, I thought you were out exploring," Ashton greeted.Hannah shook her head. "It's more comfortable in the room.""Why are our bags already packed?""We're leaving tomorrow, aren't we?" Hannah replied, sitting on the edge of the bed. "I just wanted to have everything ready for when we leave.""Yes, true. But my dirty laundry..." Ashton hesitated. "You packed it?"Hannah grinned. "I asked housekeeping to put them in a laundry bag.""Nice." Ashton chuckled.Hannah stood and retrieved her bag, pulled out a black card, and held it ou

When Victoria entered the living room, Gloria immediately stood up and smiled broadly. Victoria casually approached Gloria, and they exchanged hugs and kisses on the cheek. But when Ashton walked behind her, Gloria's heart pounded even harder."How have you been, Victoria?" Gloria greeted."The same, dear."Ashton remained calm, showing no sign of annoyance. He held out his hand to Gloria. "Are you well, Gloria?""Well..." Gloria trailed off, leaving her sentence hanging.She shook Ashton's hand briefly before quickly sitting down. In truth, Gloria wanted to vent her frustration with Ashton but couldn't bring herself to do so in front of his mother. Victoria sat beside Ashton and Gloria, nervous and trying to hide her emotions."So, what do you want to discuss this time, dear?" Victoria asked."You picked Ashton up at the airport?" Gloria asked instead. "You saw who he came home with, didn't you, Victoria?"Victoria didn't answ
