Unspoken Vows Chapter 2

"Holly, lost your soul?"

I suddenly came back to my senses, almost dropping the IV bottle in my hand.

Ethan raised the corner of his eye with a smile, "Thinking about a wild man behind my back? Hmm?"

Don't know if this guy did it on purpose, but when he said this, his whole body leaned on me again, not to mention his voice was quite loud.

The warm breath fluttered on my ears, making me shrink my neck uncomfortably.

Just wanted to push him away, suddenly felt a gaze sweep over.

I looked at Caleb not far away almost subconsciously.

Eyes met.

If the Caleb from five years ago saw this, he would definitely walk over with a cold face, hug my waist firmly, and declare sovereignty through gritted teeth.

At night, no matter how I coaxed him physically, he wouldn't let it go.

Even in the end, he would act aggrieved, "You are not allowed to like anyone else."

Such a petty Caleb, such a Caleb who loved me...

Now he just looked at me calmly, without any waves.

He said lightly to the pregnant woman beside him, "Let's go."

Watching the backs of the two leaving, my heart seemed to have a big hole.

Five years after the breakup, I had imagined the reunion scene countless times, but never dared to think he was already married.

I bit my lip tightly, trying to soothe the sour emotion in my heart, but it still kept fermenting and spreading in my chest.

For a moment, I really wanted to rush over and question him regardless of everything, but found that I didn't even seem to have the qualification to question.

After all, I was the one who mentioned breaking up first back then.

He was such a proud person, yet at that time he used almost every method and put down all his self-esteem to keep me.

It was me who couldn't stand the pressure and gave up on him.

"I asked for you, he is still single." Ethan's single sentence successfully made me hold back my tears.

"Huh?"

Ethan looked at me with a smile, "He is my attending physician, coincidence, right?"

I was stunned, and a little hope rose in my heart, "Did you ask him personally?"

"That's not it." Ethan touched his chin, "I heard it from those nurses."

Ethan has always been popular with the opposite sex. He learned from those nurses that Caleb suddenly transferred from Boston a month ago, and the information submitted when he joined was unmarried.

My chest was still stuffy, "But that pregnant woman just now..."

I know Caleb, he disdains lying and won't wrong himself.

If it wasn't a fact, the moment the pregnant woman called him hubby, he would definitely deny it.

But he didn't.

Ethan looked at me and didn't speak.

He thought for a while and proposed a possibility, "Maybe it's unmarried pregnancy?"

At night, when Caleb came for rounds, my eyes were already swollen from crying.

Don't know if it was my illusion, I felt Caleb seemed to be slightly stunned.

But soon, he withdrew his gaze, strode to Ethan's side, and began a routine check.

First, he asked about Ethan's injury in a businesslike manner, then asked some routine questions, without looking at me again throughout the process.

My hand in my pocket clenched, and my heart felt soaked in acid water.

"What did you eat today? Has the frequency of headaches increased or decreased?" Caleb asked.

Ethan answered unhurriedly,

"Today I ate the porridge Holly made for me personally. Heard from her mom that she cooked it at home for three hours and almost hurt her finger when dealing with crabs. Even her ex-boyfriend didn't get this treatment!"

"Strange to say, after drinking Holly's porridge, my head doesn't seem to hurt anymore, tsk."

Caleb's movement paused then, turning his head, he looked at me indifferently.
