Becoming Secret Nanny for Possessive CEO-Chapter 151: My Number One

Chapter 151

Chapter 151: Chapter 151: My Number One
Edith cried and screamed as her beloved fiancé rescued her from danger, suffering severe head injuries. She nearly lost consciousness as blood continued to pour from her fiance’s head and her hands were covered in it. Passersby rushed to Edith’s aid, some calling for an ambulance to take Callum to the hospital.
Without waiting long, Callum was immediately taken to the nearest hospital. Edith ensured the hospital belonged to Erick’s family, as Erick was the only one she could trust to save Callum. While at the hospital, Edith continued to wait for Callum to regain consciousness in the VIP ward. Her gaze was blank, revealing the swollen eye bags from crying non-stop since the incident. In her mind now, she wanted to kill Yvette immediately because Yvette almost killed her.
Edith fought back her tears. She held her fiancé’s hand, which was on the IV drip, and kissed him on the cheek for a few seconds. Callum’s head was now bandaged, and her biggest fear was the seriousness of his head injury, which would lead to amnesia. She hoped he would still remember her and their little family.
Suddenly, Callum slowly moved his index finger. He opened his eyes and stared at his fiancée, who continued to cry, breaking his heart into pieces.
"Callum, do you recognize me? Your head hurts?" Edith asked frantically.
"Edith..." His left hand stroked his fiancée’s cheek slowly.
Hearing her fiancé still calling her sweetly, a sweet smile returned to her face, even though her heart was still shattered at the thought of the horrific incident that threatened their lives. She immediately embraced her fiancé tightly, slowly stroking his broad back.
"Your eyes are swollen, Edith."
"I was really scared, actually. Seeing you so badly injured earlier made me afraid to face you. Especially with your head injury, I was afraid you wouldn’t remember me or the kids. I didn’t want to be treated like a stranger anymore."
Callum smiled casually, pressing his lips to his fiancée’s temple. "Even if I have amnesia, I won’t treat you like a stranger. Because you’re the sweetest woman in my life."
"Can you stop sweet-talking me at a time like this? I’ve been so scared since you protected me earlier!"
"I won’t get amnesia. You don’t have to worry. Even though I hurt my head, the first thing I remember is you."
Edith laughed awkwardly, gently patting her fiancé’s arm. "I made a promise to you back then, but in the end, I couldn’t keep my promise and treated you like a stranger."
"Are you afraid that I will be like you before?"
"Yes. Now I understand how you’ve been hurt by me. I treated you too coldly and treated you like a stranger. I don’t want that to happen to you again."
His lips immediately landed on his fiancée’s nose. "If you were my life partner, I wouldn’t have amnesia. In fact, I’d still remember so many things I’d have to do with you throughout my life."
"Callum..."
Callum shifted his buttocks, making room for his fiancée to sit next to him. "I want you to sit next to me."
Edith took off her shoes and sat down next to her fiancé. Allowing him to embrace her lovingly made her heart flutter. Even though they had just faced a very dangerous situation, she still felt the warmth of Callum’s love, making her want to hold him longer. She didn’t want anyone to interrupt this rare moment.
"If I had amnesia, I wouldn’t be able to bear to see you cry again. Seeing your eyes so swollen now makes me feel guilty," Callum said, patting his fiancée’s arm rhythmically.
"You’re always so sensitive about these little things." Edith buried her head in her fiancé’s chest. "Now I don’t have to worry about you cheating on me."
Her brow furrowed at her fiancé’s unexpected words. "Since when did I cheat on you?"
"I’m afraid that when you carry out this secret mission, you will fall into Yvette’s trap."
Callum laughed so hard his face turned red. "There’s no way I’d cheat on you. Besides, you’re prettier and sweeter than her, so I wouldn’t do something so stupid."
Her cheeks grew even redder at the sweet talk. "If you keep sweet-talking me, I’ll be even more reluctant to leave you here alone."
"You’re so sweet right now. Keep that sweet attitude up."
"But, I won’t be sweet if you do something stupid like that again!"
"I saved you because I didn’t want to lose you!"
"Then what about me? Don’t you think about how guilty I’ll feel? Especially seeing your head injured so badly that blood is constantly pouring out of it makes me so sick."
Callum exhaled heavily. "Because I’d rather be the one hurt than you. I deserve it more."
"No. You don’t deserve this. I don’t want you to get hurt again. Especially since you promised the kids you’d celebrate their birthdays."
Remembering how enthusiastic he had been about his promise to celebrate the twins’ birthdays made him feel even more guilty. Now, his circumstances made it impossible to celebrate them in a special way. Instead, he wanted to hide from his twins for a while so they wouldn’t worry about him.
"They can’t see me hurt like this. Can you keep this a secret, Edith?"
"Of course. I actually intended to hide you from them for a while." Her lips curled into a pout. "But they’ll definitely wonder where you are. After all, they miss you so much, and this year is the first time they’ll be able to celebrate this very special birthday with us."
"Instead, after I recover, I will give them a special surprise."
Edith laughed awkwardly, gently pinching her fiancé’s cheek. "There’s no need to worry about the surprise. All they want is your affection."
"If I were hiding now, what would you say to them?"
"You suddenly had something to do. Then, the witch told you to take care of some work first."
Callum burst out laughing even more. "The kids were so excited to call my stepmother a witch."
"But, I admit that your stepmother is indeed like a witch."
Staring at the red lips getting closer to him, without realizing it, his lips also moved closer to those red lips.
When the pair of lips were about to kiss, suddenly the door of this room opened.
