Chapter 740
When Jimmy woke up, the first thing he smelled was the disinfectant. Instantly, he realized that he was in the hospital and then he recalled what had happened before he passed out.
After being in a coma for so long, he felt stiff all over his body. Gradually, he came to his senses and snorted.
"Ah, you're finally awake!" someone exclaimed, and then there were voices of people calling the nurse. A while later, the doctors and nurses came in, and one of the doctors made a phone call to notify his family of his awakening.
Soon, a group of people filed in. Jimmy looked at them and found that they were his parents and his colleagues.
However, Ariah was nowhere to be seen.
Quickly, he frowned and asked, "Where's Ariah?"
Ella went over and patted her son's hand. Her eyes were red. Obviously, she had been crying. "She's not here now. Take a rest first..."
When Jimmy woke up, the first person he wanted to see was Ariah. But right now, hearing what Ella said, he began to worry.
He wondered if something bad happened to Ariah and if the baby didn't make it...
Immediately, his face turned pale and he wanted to get off of the bed. Ella was shocked to see that and hurriedly stopped him. "Jimmy! What are you doing?"
When David and the rest saw this, they also came over to stop him. "Capt., what are you doing? You need to lie down!"
"Go away!"
Right now, Jimmy was very anxious. He glared at them with his bloodshot eyes and hissed, "Let go of me!"
Seeing that, Mack strode over and scolded, "What are you doing? Lie down! Your body is still very weak!"
Although Jimmy survived the accident, his leg was badly injured.
So naturally, he shouldn't be getting off the bed now.
Thinking about that, Mack warned once again, "Lie down!"
This was the first time that Mack had been so stern and everyone was frightened by him. However, Jimmy acted as if he didn't hear that. "Get out of my way. I gotta go find Ariah!"
"Ariah is fine. She'll be back soon." Ella pressed her son's shoulders down and shot her husband a look. "Go tell Ariah to come."
Jimmy's heart jolted when he saw his mother glancing at his father. He thought that Ella was trying to cover up something.
It was such a serious car accident and he had been injured badly, so how could Ariah still be fine?
He became even more worried and wanted to go out to find Ariah. There were many people in the room but no one could stop him.
Just when the ward was in a mess, Ariah finally came over. Just now on the phone, Mack already told her that Jimmy had woken up.
But the moment she entered the ward, she was surprised.
What... was going on?
Sitting on the bed, Jimmy was panting whereas the ward was in chaos.
"Uh, what's happening..."
Ariah asked hesitantly as she stood at the door.
Hearing her voice, Jimmy looked up and rushed to her. Regardless of his leg's injury, he pounced on her and said, "Honey, you're not dead!"
Ariah was shocked by his reaction. Nevertheless, she quickly helped him back to the bed and asked him to lie down.
"Of course, I'm not dead." Amused, she then turned to ask, "David, didn't you guys tell him that I'm fine?"
David looked speechless. "Well, we did. But capt. just doesn't believe it!"
Hearing that, Ariah looked over at Jimmy's parents, and sure enough, the two of them wore the same speechless expression.
And Ella seemed quite angry too. "Indeed, he didn't even trust me, his mother. I said that you're fine, but he didn't believe that. In fact, he said that I was lying and he even tried to push me away. Urgh! He's so annoying. Mack, let's go. Take good care of him yeah, Ariah."
Saying that, Ella took Mack out of the door.
David and the others also left.
On the other hand, Ariah was amazed by what Ella had said.
How did so many things happen? She had only been away for a short while...
Meanwhile, Jimmy observed Ariah carefully and was finally at ease when he saw that she was not hurt.
After tidying up the room, Ariah sat by his side and took his hand to place it on her belly, saying, "Don't worry. Our baby is fine too. The doctor said that it's a miracle that I'm not injured after such an accident."
Jimmy was still gripped by fear. "Yeah, thank goodness."
Hearing that, Ariah looked at him with affection because it was him who had kept her safe.
"Jimmy, get well soon."
Jimmy stayed in the hospital for a month or so before he was discharged, although he still needed crutches to support himself.
When he was discharged, surprisingly, he had gained a few pounds. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
During this time, Ariah had taken great care of him, to which he was initially a little overwhelmed. Later on, he gradually realized that Ariah's attitude towards him had changed by quite a bit.
She was no longer as cold as she was before.
It turned out that the accident was kind of a blessing in disguise because she had now forgiven him.
Thinking about that, Jimmy was really happy, and thus he didn't mind putting on some weight.
By the time Ariah was eight months into her pregnancy, Jimmy's leg injury was almost healed.
And therefore, his sexual needs were slowly awakening.
Before the car accident, Ariah had been ignoring him. She wouldn't allow him to touch her, let alone having sex.
Ever since they had reconciled, they had been sleeping together every night, so naturally, Jimmy was a little tempted to make love to her. However, because his leg injury hadn't healed completely yet, Ariah wouldn't allow him to have sex.
But now, he had totally recovered already. After having dinner, they laid on the sofa to watch a movie. Soon, Jimmy grew a little distracted from the movie.
"Tonight was a good opportunity," he thought.
So he started to play with her hair, then touched her belly, and finally, kissed her hand. Apparently, he was trying to flirt with her.
Although Ariah did not stop him, and her gaze was fixed on the TV, she gradually began to breathe a little heavily.
Jimmy knew it was about time, so he carried her into the room with excitement.
It had almost been a year since they last had sex. Now, he couldn't wait anymore longer.
Ariah was a little startled by the look in his eyes.
But of course, he wouldn't give her a chance to back down. Instead, he wanted to possess her.
Seeing that, Ariah swallowed hard and called out hesitantly, "Jimmy..."
"Not now!" Jimmy panted and then kissed her hard.
How could he let go of such a good opportunity?
Moaning, Ariah gradually gave in and circled her arms around his neck. In the end, she even took the initiative to lure him. Looking at her acting coquettishly, Jimmy trembled in excitement.
The temperature in the bedroom gradually rose. After a long while, everything slowly returned to calmness.
Jimmy looked at Ariah, who was curling up in his arms shyly, and was extremely satisfied. Right now, he felt that he was the happiest man in the world.
Then, he caressed Ariah's big belly.
Under his affectionate gaze, Ariah couldn't take it anymore and ask, "What's wrong?"
But Jimmy just lowered his head and chuckled.
He never told her how much he loved her.
Nevertheless, he was really lucky to meet her.
She taught him everything about love and responsibility.
And she provided him a home and he never had to be lonely again for the rest of his life.
There was a saying that went on like this, 'Some of us get dipped in flat, some in satin, and some in gloss.'
'But every once in a while, you find someone who's iridescent.'
'And when you do, nothing will ever compare.'
With that said, Ariah was the 'iridescent someone' to Jimmy.
