Camouflaged with the white walls!

Maya: I think this is just our second meeting, sir…

Aiden: Your son is hurt! I think I thought a bit too much…

Riely: Your daughter- in -law just faced some complications…

Ella: This Maya! She stole my spotlight again!!!  (*turning red with embarrassment and anger*)

Seeing the old man beaming with a smile and talking to her, Maya did not want to dampen his excitement and smiled at him. "Hello Mr. Smith. How are you?" 

"I am fine! Hahaha!-" *Cough- Cough*

"You should sit down!" Mr. Frill said sternly. Maybe he was the only one in this world who could talk to Tyler Smith in a rude manner.

"Nah! Just give me some water."

Mr. Smith then checked up with his daughter- in- law.

Riely felt sorry and said, "Father it's you who is elder and you are the one who has to check up on us…"

"Do you think I am an old man!?" Tyler 'scolded' her as he finally walked towards his son, who was the patient here. 

Everyone in the room did not know what to say… Old man, are you facing some age issues? You are old enough to be a great grandfather!

"Dad, the doctor had put you on a wheelchair. It has not even been a month and you are behaving like this?" 

"You are the one lying on the bed of a hospital now. Do you think you are in any position to lecture me?" No one would believe this scene if they were not witnessing it.

Tyler Smith, who was one of the major phases of business in the country could also behave so childishly? This was something that people could not even imagine. 

"Why are you here?" He knew the reason before coming here, but he still asked Aiden. Tyler looked at his son's arm, his heart ached for him but he did not let it show on his face.

"Dad-" Aiden started but was interrupted by a scoff.

It was no one else but his own father… "If you get hurt so easily, how will you protect the woman you like? Hm?" 

Tyler hit his hand on Aidan's wounded area which was all covered with bandages at the moment.

Although it looked as if he hit him hard, Tyler had in fact only tapped his fingers lightly on Aidan's hand. But Aiden decided to play along with him and flinched at his touch.

Maya, who did not know about their act, felt nervous. She recalled how Aiden had protected her just a few hours ago. It felt warm.

To protect her, Aiden had stood up for her a number of times. 

.

Maya did not know how to express herself, now as she thought about it, when she was with Lucas, it was as if she had a relationship, not with a twenty six years old man, but a six year old kid!

Not many people knew about her having panic attacks due to deep red colors, but Lucas was one man who surely knew about it.

But did that change anything?

No.

She remembered the first time Lucas had hurt himself badly because of some shooting equipment and Maya was with him.

This was during the time when they were still just friends, about six years ago.

Eventually, it all led to Maya telling Lucas her secret. Lucas was very scared after hearing this and repeatedly apologized to Maya for making problems for her. Maya had thought that this was cute… 

In the early stages of their relationship, when such things happened again, Maya tried to control herself and endured it. 

Later on she thought that maybe she was the one overreacting, after all, who never got hurt and bled a bit?

So after that, Maya started carrying band- aids with her. If Lucas got hurt, she would immediately help him with it.

The situation now, felt as if Lucas was the one who had a problem, and Maya looked after him all the time.

The foolish Maya from that time thought that these were the little things people did in love. She did not realize what this all was turning into. 

Maya had never liked people who used to say that a woman would always need a man to survive.

Of course, even now she thought the same, but her thinking process had changed by a lot. To her, it felt that she had become a little broad minded person…?

At this minute, she understood one thing, and it was that, although a woman did not always need a man to rely on, how can she have a partner who couldn't even give her security and protection?

On the contrary, instead of giving her any kind of security, Lucas himself was the one harming her!

Thinking all this at the present time, Maya laughed at herself and thought… "Ridiculous!"

Seriously? This was the man she fell in love with? 

Coming back to the present situation, while the father and son duo were talking among themselves, Riely was very shocked to see her father- in -laws' reaction towards Maya.

She had not expected this lady in front of her to be so well known.

Riely looked at Maya, to her surprise, she was caught looking at her! Maya also looked towards her at the same time. Concealing her shock with a smile, Riely gestured to Maya to come towards her. 

Riely had no intentions to create a misunderstanding between herself and Ella; she simply wanted to talk to Maya, but it was too late. Ella was already boiling with anger. 

.

Liam, who had no interest in anyone else in the room bit Ella, felt hurt.

Since the beginning his eyes were set on every action Ella was doing. He was not a fool, he could very well understand what she was doing or was trying to do. But he did not say anything. What could he even say?

Looking at the situation on Ella's hand going out of control, Liam raised his voice, "Since we are done here, I would like to excuse myself and my sister." 

Tyler looked back, he had a question mark on his face. He had seen everyone in the room then was Maya considered as Liam's sister?

Wait, there is one more lady in white dress. Her dress was so white that she had almost camouflaged with the white walls of the hospital ward! 

"Oh Ella? What are you doing here!?" 

"!!!!!!!!!!!"
