Logan half sat up from the bed and pretended to be puzzled, saying, "Maria, you still paid for my surgery? Doesn't Lucas know about it? You shouldn't do that."
"The company has been in a big deficit lately. I don't have enough to pay for your surgery. The perpetrator hasn't been caught, and the commercial insurance compensation is not enough. This thirty thousand dollars is just a small fraction. I have no other choice."
"Lucas is your husband, after all, Maria. Maybe he comes here just to ask you to go back. So you should go back first and leave me here to fend for myself, okay?"
Logan sighed and deliberately made himself sound miserable and pitiful.
But I didn't expect that when he said this, he avoided Maria's sight and made lip movements to me.
"You can't never win me!"
It turned out that Logan's target was not Maria from the very beginning.
But me.
I'd been worried about Maria during the years I'd been with her.
She was a typical career-oriented woman. After she gave birth to Stella, she worked even harder. She fainted at her workplace several times and I had to go to pick her up.
