My Supermodel Wife

This short sentence caused a great pain in Mellisa's heart.

She had thought about the countless possibilities when they met again, but she didn't expect that the man was seriously ill.

Mellisa pinched the handle of the cup of warm milk and continued to push hard.

Her eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, and the light projected through the curtains revealed Leonard's pale and thin face.

Not too skinny, but much thinner than a few months ago.

Mellisa pressed her lips tightly, suppressing her emotions. And just as she was about to speak, she saw Leonard slowly opening his eyes.

Her heart is beating fast, her mind keeps telling her, 'Don't open your eyes and don't you dare look at him!'

Even though there was a disguise covering the length of her hair and the shape of her face, she was afraid that too much emotions floating on her mind would make her blurt out something stupid.

A moment later, Leonard asked again, "Did you make it?"

His voice was hoarse, no longer full of the tenderness like the man had in the past.

Mellisa nodded slightly, but then suddenly remembered something.

His eyes…

"Young Master, can you see me?" Mellisa carefully examined, even stuck out her trembling fingers in front of him.

Leonard sighed and smiled sinisterly. "How long have you lived in the Adlers' house? Don't you know I'm blind?"

As the words fell, the flask in Mellisa's hand fell to the ground.

She stared at his unfocused pupils, clearly shining brightly in the darkness. This man couldn't see her anymore!

"What is it…" Leonard coughed and asked weakly. "What happened?"

Mellisa didn't answer, and the bedroom's door opened again.

Doctor Lawrence paced back and forth, leaning on the handle while standing by the door. He furrowed his brows. "What are you doing?"

Mellisa leaned in anxiously to pick up the thermos, a single tear dripping from her eye.

Doctor Lawrence walked to the window with a serious expression, opened the curtains, and turned to look at Mellisa. "Why don't you give him milk? What are you waiting for?"

Right now, Mellisa is hurt by Leonard's current situation.

Her whole body was shaking.

Especially after opening the curtains, she could see the beard all over the man's jaw and his disheveled hair.

The man who was once handsome and cold, the man who pampered her at all costs, had now changed into thin and sickly.

Mellisa heard Doctor Lawrence's question, she bowed without saying a word, planning to help Leonard to sit up.

However, before her finger touched his shoulder, Doctor Lawrence stopped her. "What are you doing? Don't move him, he has wounds on his body and can't get up!"

Mellisa's hand stopped in midair and faced Doctor Lawrence. "How can I help him drink it?"

"How would I know!" Doctor Lawrence snorted. "I'm a doctor, not a servant! Why do you still need to ask me about this kind of thing? The Adler family's discipline towards their subordinates has turned out to be much worse this time!"

Mellisa stupidly held back without saying a word.

At this moment, Leonard, who was lying on the bed, said in a deep voice, "Get out!"

Melissa's breath caught, her eyes lowered as she turned around.

However, as soon as she took a step back, the man on the bed turned his face to the window. "Doctor Lawrence, get out, and never insult the Adler family again!"

Melisa. "..."

Doctor Lawrence didn't get angry and laughed. "You still want to protect the Adler family? Aren't we all just servants to you guys, why are you shouting blindly at me like that?"

After being vaguely reminded by Doctor Lawrence, Leonard turned his head to look up at the roof again without focus.

"Of course, I can't provoke you!" Doctor Lawrence glared at him forcefully, and left impatiently.

Melisa didn't even have time to speak, and Doctor Lawrence stepped out of the bedroom.

Luckily, she opened the curtains, dispelling the darkness and sadness in the room, adding a hint of warmth.

Melissa glanced at Leonard that seemed decadent. The thought of leaving the Adlers' house had disappeared without a trace when she saw him.

This man's current condition didn't give her the courage to take a step away.

For some time, Leonard stretched out his hand and waved in the air. "Where's the milk..."

Melissa turned to take a cup of milk in her hand, and sighed. "I'll help you drink it!"

"But... how?"

Dr. Lawrence said that he suffered injuries on his body and could not move.

Melissa was standing in the room with an awkward posture, and Leonard also reminded at the right time. "There's a straw in the drawer."

Melissa didn't hesitate after she heard this, and when she opened the drawer she saw a brand new pack of straws inside.

She opened the lid of the thermos cup, took out the straw, and placed it gently beside him mouth. "Please have a drink."

Leonard squeezed the corners of his mouth and drank it, and when he finished drinking, he coughed loudly.

Mellisa had almost no experience in caring for other people. She hurriedly took a tissue and wiped his mouth. "Why? Is it too hot?"

Too anxious, she forgot to disguise her voice.

When she realized it, Mellisa broke out in a cold sweat.

She didn't know why Leonard had turned like this, so she shouldn't reveal her identity.

Besides, the man also had a fiancée, and her identity was in an unjustifiable situation.

They had to break up because of the arranged marriage that Leonard's family made for him. Mellisa tried to accept the truth, but she was worried that someone would try to harm Leonard.

Even though Melisa was a free and tomboyish girl, she was a little stubborn about her feelings.

At this moment, Melissa blinked with a guilty conscience. She stared at Leonard's cheek for a moment, and she was relieved to see his face was no different.

After she wiped the corners of Leonard's mouth, she heard him say. "The milk you boiled is very good."

Mellisa lowered her eyelids, "Thank you young master for your compliment."

"Go and speak to my butler, requesting that you be stationed here from now on."

Mellisa furrowed her brows, perhaps because her emotions were too shocked, so she couldn't refuse his suggestion at all.

"Okay, Young Master."

Mellisa didn't think that delivering this warm milk would benefit her so much.

That afternoon, the people in the back kitchen were shocked to hear the news!

When Mellisa returned to the maid's room to arrange her clothes, the assistant and head chef also rushed over.

The two of them looked at Mellisa from side to side. The assistant chef smiled and joked. "Damn it, just four days after being here, you were already promoted!"

Mellisa was worried about causing unnecessary trouble, and explained, "Sir, don't talk nonsense, I only cooked a glass of milk for the young master today, and there was a shortage of manpower in his place, so I was transferred to help."

Hearing this, the head chef looked strange. "There is a shortage of manpower at the young master's place? No way, the entire Adler family's manpower has been allocated to serve the young master, there're more than 30 people, is it still lacking?"

Mellisa is shocked, that many?!

When she passed today, she saw no one but the butler!

At this moment, the assistant chef looked at the head chef. "Hey, whatever happens, I think this move is pretty good. There's so many ingredients in the back kitchen that she's allergic to. Billie's better off looking after the young master than smelling greasy smoke in the back kitchen."

This assistant chef is a frank and honest person, he is happy for Mellisa's promotion.
