Chapter 39 - At the Hospital Bed

"Father! Are you certain about this?" Lester inquires of his father.

"Yes, we need to rush through March and Eliza's engagement so we can get married as soon as possible," Rafael sighed.

"But, father, that boy is frail, and we don't know whether Eliza loves him. Is it the same as letting her marry that jerk!" Marcus argues.

"You have a valid point, brother. But, remember, Eliza and her boyfriend were already on a deeper level. They have already kissed and there is more "Nathan stated.

Rafael and Marcus erupted in rage as a result. Lester and their mother, Sofie, both shook their heads.

"You scumbag! That boy is unworthy of our sister. He wouldn't need to be saved by our sister if he was strong "Marcus was enraged.

"What's wrong with a woman saving her man? This isn't your typical fairy tale in which the prince saves the damsel in distress. You should know that women are strong. However, this does not imply that men who are saved by their partners are weak or in any way negative. That only meant he was loved by his partner enough for him to risk his life to save him. He is not weak; he is simply fortunate and well-liked." Nathan debating

As a result, March was triggered. He wasn't gender-biased, but he was somewhat Sis-con.

Nathan and March were about to go toe-to-toe. Lester, on the other hand, was speechless in the face of his younger brothers' misbehavior.

March was against Elizabeth in any relation. Meanwhile, Jonathan is oddly super excited about the thought of Eliza getting into a relationship.

"Marcus! Jonathan! Don't worry. I realize this is a bit hurried. But I don't want my daughter to be forced into the dangerous hidden world." Rafael elaborated.

"But, father, that young man is a warrior. And, according to Eliza, he is talented. Is it the same as selling her out? "Marcus argued

"Dad is correct, Mar. It was fortunate that Eliza and that boy knew each other and had a good relationship because they were able to save each other. She should marry someone she wants to marry rather than someone she knows "Lester elaborated.

"Dear, I'm sorry," Sofie says.

"Dear, it's not your fault. I bet your family that if I want to marry you, I owe them a favor. I'll never accept him wanting to fix Elizabeth with someone we've never met "Rafael elaborated.

***

After March poisoned was healed, and he fainted shortly afterward.

Marcus was the first to track down Eliza and March's location, and he then relayed the information to his brothers.

Luckily he didn't see anything, just Eliza and March kissing. Not everything or else March life will be more endangered.

March also fainted, and Eliza panicked.

March, on the other hand, can act; his rage Nathan leads a team to the location.

Nathan, on the other hand, was taken aback by Eliza and March's intimate relationship.

Elizabeth was hugging March. She let March headrest on her chest.

While Lester tasks to investigate what happened and his brother locate and save their sister Eliza.

They discovered the truth thanks to Lester's investigation. Eliza was the Kidnapper's true target.

And March was just a target to be used as bait and to dispose of after.

***

Meanwhile, Elizabeth was too tired and was asleep in the same room with March in the Private Hospital.

March was finally able to move around again. When he awoke, he was a little dazed.

He tried to pay attention to his surroundings and realized he was safe.

"Wait, this is a hospital room; where is Elizabeth?" March was worried about her safety.

Good thing he noticed that Elizabeth was just the next bed sleeping.

That made him sigh in relief.

"Thank God, you're safe," March exclaimed.

Elizabeth, who was still half asleep, stood up and walked over to March's bed, where she lay down.

March was rendered speechless as a result of this.

"Doesn't my fiance have to like me?" March asks himself with skepticism.

March was attempting to take in the sight of Elizabeth sleeping. Elizabeth, on the other hand, was already cuddling with him.

And this made him think about what happened last time.

Elizabeth's warmth is appreciated by March. I have no idea what love is or what it means to be in a relationship.

But he knows Elizabeth is the one who shared with him the dreams in which he saw his grandfather.

He was aware that it would be in the future. He guessed because the dream occurred when he was a little older.

He was carried away by the moment. He kissed Elizabeth on the forehead.

The moment he left his lips on Elizabeth's forehead. A hand reaches out to grab him and kisses him on the lips.

After the kiss, he stared with shock seeing Elizabeth was already smiling at him.

"Good morning," Elizabeth said stutteringly.

She was embarrassed. She kissed March the moment she awoke.

It was her custom. In real life, when she sleeps with her boyfriend. They spend the majority of their time sleeping together.

When she awoke, she was dazed for a moment. She accidentally kisses March, who was sleeping on her hospital bed.

March smile and hug Elizabeth. Then he pulled Elizabeth back to the bed.

"Elizabeth" March inquires

"Yes," Elizabeth confirmed.

"You are aware that I was an orphan before being adopted by my grandfather. He was everything to me. On that day, he went missing. I'll never forget that day." March spoke in a sad tone.

Elizabeth remained silent and continued to cuddle March. And she slept on March's shoulders.

"Grandpa had told me not to leave my room that night. Whatever I hear or what is going on outside. As a result, I took my Grandfather's advice." March expressed regret.

March was already in tears. Elizabeth noticed it.

She wipes March's tears away and says "You're fantastic. To listen to your grandfather's advice. He'd be even angrier if you didn't follow him."

March became more relaxed as a result of this.

"Yes, you are correct. He'll beat me up if I don't follow him "March smiled as he said this.

"What is your plan?" Elizabeth inquired.

"I suppose you should be happy. That's what my grandfather always tells me. That's what I intend to do "March responded.

"That's good," Elizabeth said, smiling.

March can't help but kiss Elizabeth when she sees her.

The door unexpectedly opened, causing both of them to jump in surprise.

"Father, Mother, brothers!" Elizabeth said in surprise.

She was well aware that she and March had been caught in the act. She is at a loss for words as to how to explain the situation without complicating matters further.

Marcus was so pissed off. He grabbed March hospital grown and said.

"You've lost your mind, boy. Kissing!? You are not yet married to perform this act!" Marcus yelled angrily.

"Brother!" Elizabeth and Nathan both said the same thing at the same time.

Lester taps Marcus on the shoulder, signaling him to let go.

"Hmm, I'm keeping an eye on you," Marcus said.

Elizabeth's parents, Rafael and Sofie, can only shake their heads.

They know that Marcus was overprotective with Elizabeth since young.

"Good morning, Uncle and Auntie, as well as Older Brothers." March smiled as he said this.

Meanwhile, Elizabeth was scared to death.

"March, you want to die young. Oh, I really hope this doesn't go wrong "Elizabeth prayed for peace of mind.

She grips March's hands tightly out of instinct. And her every move was visible to her family.

"Hmm, she's already attached to this boy," Sofie reflected.

"This child is extremely fortunate to have my daughter care for him. Otherwise, I'll make sure he regrets it." Rafael was irritated by his daughter's actions.

Her brothers had a different reaction.

Lester just acted as nothing happened and it was normal at all.

Nathan, on the other hand, was smiling, while Marcus was already looking like he wanted to beat up March.

"When are you going to make a nephew or niece for me?" Nathan inquired.
