CHAPTER 68

Lucia bought two cans of cold beer before coming to the hospital, then she gave one of them to Brian, who had been silent and ignoring her.

  "What's the matter, Bri?" she asked in surprise.

  Brian shook his head slowly, then he took a sip of his beer. "No problem."

  "Then why is your facial expression saying something's wrong? Or… are you angry?"

  Brian wanted so badly to say out loud that he was annoyed that he had waited so long for Lucia. However, he abandoned that intention because he was too embarrassed.

  "Just your feelings. Oh yeah, didn't you bring something else to eat and drink? Gosh… what kind of wife buys beer for her sick husband?" he tried to change the subject.

  Lucia was aware of that, but insisting that the man say it himself would be fruitless at all. She knew Brian's temper very well, so Lucia chose to be indifferent and pretended not to.
