It was already late at night when Alex ordered a meal from a five–star hotel. It was a nutritious meal specially designed for pregnant women.
After he finished the surgery, he was not allowed to eat. Isabelle felt a little sorry for him, so she turned away and ate.
At that moment, someone brought in a comfortable bed from outside and placed it right next to Warren’s sickbed.
Isabelle turned her head in surprise and asked, “L, aren’t you planning to hire a caregiver?”
“Why do I need a caregiver with you around? Do you think I earn money easily?” Warren closed his eyes, his lips turning pale.
“Okay, L lived in a hospital room that cost tens of thousands per hour, but couldn’t afford a nurse.” Isabelle wasn’t really complaining. It’s just that sometimes it was inconvenient, like the situation just now when she needed to use the bathroom.
Although Warren and Isabelle were married by law, they had not yet slept together. They were still dating.
Isabelle was shy.
Warren glanced at Isabelle. He weakly patted the bed. “Have you finished eating? Hurry up and come to sleep with me. I’m in so much pain.”
Isabelle was speechless. She reluctantly took a few bites of rice. Worried about Warren’s pain, she quickly got into bed.

The moonlight streamed in. Isabelle fell asleep as soon as she got into bed. Warren wanted to laugh. “Who’s taking care of me? This little pig.”
Isabelle was very tired tonight. She had dark circles under her eyes. Warren also didn’t want to boss her around.
Warren furrowed his brow. He endured the excruciating pain of turning over without making a sound.
Isabelle had a good night’s sleep as she didn’t hear Warren cry all night.
In the morning, she heard Warren’s cold and stern voice, as if he was explaining something to someone else.
Isabelle groggily opened her eyes. She saw several of Warren’s subordinates standing by his bedside, along with the police.
And her head was tightly covered. She couldn’t make a sound.
Warren’s subordinate curiously peeked at the woman lying next to Mr. L. Isabelle’s little face showed a hint of curiosity.
“Mr. L, the identity of the assailant who stabbed you has been traced. The assailant is a relative of the deceased worker in the Bradford Bay
Project. On that day, you did not offer condolences or address the aftermath. This may have caused dissatisfaction among the workers. The local manager, in order to maintain a good relationship with you, concealed this incident and offered a low compensation, which led to the relatives causing trouble and seeking revenge against you.”
“Why did he follow Isabelle?” Warren frowned.
Isabelle heard Warren investigating what had happened last night. She

quickly frowned and spoke from under the covers, “It’s strange because hardly anyone knows about our relationship. L, last night I was forced into the construction site by a motorcycle.”
A chill flashed through Warren’s eyes.
Sheldon wondered, “Could it be that this relative planned to force Ms. Spencer into the construction site to seek revenge on you? But how did he find out about Ms. Spencer? Perhaps when he was following you recently, he saw Ms. Spencer and you on a date?”
Warren thought about it and remembered that a while ago when he was dating Isabelle, he did indeed take her out for a flashy shopping spree and barbecue.
Isabelle naturally thought of this too, but she still felt something was off.
At this moment, the police said, “Because the criminal has martial arts training. he is extremely dangerous. Currently, he is still on the run. Mr. L. you have been injured, and the police station hopes that Ms. Spencer can come forward to lure the enemy…”
“No way! It’s your responsibility to catch the person. I’ll give you three days. Dismissed!”
Warren glanced at Isabelle. He firmly refused, exuding a powerful aura. The police officers dared not say another word and immediately walked out.
Warren instructed Sheldon, “Have the hospital assign some bodyguards. Ms. Spencer should be accompanied everywhere she goes.”
Sheldon nodded.
At this moment, Warren lifted the blanket beside him. Looking at the

small woman with a flushed face, he furrowed his brows slightly. “You are very clever, and you even know how to hide.”
Isabelle rolled her eyes. “It’s because I know L is stingy.”
Isabelle wriggled the blanket, and Sheldon immediately conscientiously turned over.
As soon as Isabelle put on her coat, Warren immediately lowered his eyes, pale lips trembling. “I need to go to the bathroom.”
He seemed to have waited all morning, just waiting for Isabelle to wake up and say this sentence.
Isabelle was speechless and thought, “Is it okay to hold in his morning urine for so long? Why didn’t his assistant accompany him?”
Warren said again, “Last night, I was in so much pain that I couldn’t sleep all night.”
“Okay, okay, he got injured just to save me,” Isabelle grumbled as she climbed out of bed.
Sheldon didn’t know how to comment on Mr. L.
Isabelle remembered the situation in the bathroom last night. It was really inconvenient. Blushing, Isabelle took an unopened basin and said, “Your constant movement is not conducive to wound recovery. Can you lie down on the bed?”
Warren’s brow twitched. But what he desired was to be taken care of by Isabelle herself. After all, even if he lay in bed, it would still be possible…
Warren frowned, “Fine, come over here.”
Isabelle bent down and lifted the blanket, but couldn’t see Warren’s

wound, so she had to get closer…
Just then, several doctors walked in from outside, with the head surgeon from last night leading the way. “Mr. L. I’m here for rounds. Ms. Spencer, what are you doing… I’m sorry, is it not a convenient time now? Then you can continue with your work… I’ll step out first.”
Isabelle glanced at the position she and Warren were in at that moment. She felt extremely embarrassed.
She knew that she had been misunderstood again.
As Isabelle was about to leave, the doctor gave her a piece of meaningful advice. “You are both young, and I understand that. But Warren has just had surgery and he needs rest. I heard that you both… this is not conducive to his recovery. Besides, Ms. Spencer, you are still pregnant…”
“Doctor, you’ve got it all wrong!” Isabelle wanted to roar. “Damn Alex. He really leaked the story.” Isabelle seriously doubted that she was now the most ‘famous‘ woman in the hospital.
Warren glanced at Isabelle. Her face turned as red as an apple. At that moment, a group of intern female doctors at the door exclaimed, “This woman is so lucky. She even said it was a misunderstanding. I saw it just now…”
Isabelle suddenly lowered her head, her face almost red as blood. She quickly took out the basin.
Warren grabbed Isabelle’s hand, his eyes dark and profound. “I hadn’t peed yet.”
After a group of doctors closed the door, Isabelle heard Warren’s hoarse voice saying, “They reminded me. You are almost four months

pregnant, right?”
His gaze burned as he stared at her face and her yet–to–be swollen belly. Her Adam’s apple bobbed, but Isabelle had no desire to see clearly
Isabelle ran into the bathroom and hid.
At that moment, Sheldon knocked on the door and handed Isabelle her phone. “Ms. Spencer, Mr. L said to give it back to you.”
The phone, which had been taken away for several days, ended up in Isabelle’s hands. Isabelle was angry. She silently turned her head and glanced at the man lying on the bed.
Warren was resting with his eyes closed.
Isabelle suddenly understood. Perhaps if she had acted spoiled and admitted defeat earlier, she wouldn’t have been locked up for so many days.
Warren seemed a little regretful last night. He just didn’t say it. He is truly a proud and cold–hearted man.
Isabelle immediately opened her phone. She found countless missed calls, from the company, from Glenda, from Brandon.
Isabelle deleted all of Brandon’s call records, so as to prevent Warren from getting upset if he saw them. She then contacted Glenda on Line. Glenda already knew that Isabelle had a close call last night, but luckily was saved by L. Glenda kept praising on Line, “He saved you without considering his own life. He is your Mr. Right. You can confidently fall in love!”
Isabelle remained silent. “Who was it that was cursing L as a jerk a while ago?”

Glenda still didn’t know that Isabelle had been grounded for six days.
Isabelle remembered an important matter. She frowned and typed, “Glenda, did you hear about the banquet from Marin?”
Glenda didn’t know what to say.
“Why do you think I was familiar with Mr. Hubbard?”
“Didn’t he save you?”
“That man never paid any attention to me after he saved me,” Glenda wondered, feeling like she had seriously offended Marin, but she had no idea what she had done.
“I heard from Mr. Herman that you almost had an accident at the party. You have been quite unlucky lately!”
This sentence suddenly awakened Isabelle.
She squinted her eyes. She had a suspect on the night of the incident. “There’s something fishy about the party, things aren’t simple. Abram and Killian were being manipulated. Can you help me carefully review the surveillance footage to see if we can find anything?”
“Sure!” Glenda immediately took charge.
At that moment, there was a commotion outside the ward.
