Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 728: Seriously injured?

Matthew frowned and looked at the Anna in front of him, not realizing that he had just played her the conversation on his cell phone....

-You're not with Serena?

Anna froze and bit her lower lip.

-Serena has Chiara with her now, and I'm more interested in whether the man they found is Cristian.

-Right now all I know is that the person has been found, but we still don't know if he is alive or dead, so there is not much to tell.

-Don't worry," Anna hastily raised her hands in a sign of promise, "I'll never say anything stupid, I just want to get confirmation."

-Let's go,II Matthew stepped forward and spoke in a cold voice.

Hearing this, Anna catapulted into the car behind Matteo, and she didn't know if it was nerves or what, but her head actually hit the door with a thud.

The sound was quite loud, and Anna took a knock, taking two steps back and sitting on her butt on the cold floor.

Matthew turned just in time to see the scene, then scowled at her, but still nothing moved.

Anna felt so embarrassed that she quickly got up from the floor, wiped the dust off her palms, then stood up and got back into the car as if nothing had happened. -I was thinking about something, that's why....

He did not say these last words because he noticed that Matthew's face was cold and his eyes were not warm either.

-Sit down and be quiet.

Anna no longer dared to speak, not even to raise her breath, but silently squared her face and looked straight ahead.

This matter was important to Matthew and important to her; it was not to be done this way.

Suddenly, she felt a little annoyed.

Once the car started up, so did the silence inside.

Anna kept wondering what the caller had said to Matthew just before, and what had happened to him now.

She really wanted to see Cristian soon, if she could see him safe and sound, then Serena would no longer be so depressed.

"God, you have to keep Cristian safe, Serena's health is so precarious and now she is pregnant, she can't afford this kind of torment." Anna kept her hands clasped over her heart and continued to pray. She did not know how long the car went on, but finally it stopped and Anna peeked her head out as Matthew spoke coldly.

-Get out.

Anna shivered with fear and hurried to open the car door.

This time she moved carefully, taking care not to hit the door, and only after her feet were safely on the ground did she let out a breath.

Guarding the door was a man who was looking this way; when he saw Matteo, he rushed toward him.

-Matteo, you have finally arrived, we have been waiting for you for a long time.

Matteo frowned and said coldly, -Where is everyone?

The man looked at Anna behind Matteo, quickly withdrew his eyes and said softly, -I'm inside, come with me.

Matthew followed him and Anna followed in his footsteps, like a crawling worm.

-When we found him, his whole body was covered with wounds, even his face.

At these words, Matthew's steps faltered.

The reason he had not informed Serena earlier after receiving the news was that he was worried that these people had found the wrong person, or that what they would find was a dead body, and thus would sadden Serena for nothing.

Instead, it was better for him, as the older brother, to come and see what was going on and then think of a countermeasure. Before arriving, Matthew had been silent, but he was actually thinking that if what he found was really a dead body, then he would make a quick decision and get rid of it by hiding it from Serena.

On the other hand, he was going to play it cool and be an evil man for his sister's sake.

Hearing this from the man leading the way, Matthew was relieved that the other man had told all, which meant that at least they had saved his life.

As for the bruises on his face?

-Too bad?

-Yes, it is too bad. He fell on a barren hill not far from here, and when he fell, he probably caught on a tree branch or injured himself on a sharp rock.

-You are doing very well," Matthew nodded and cast a grateful glance at the other man.

-Thanks for the compliment, it was my idea at the time, he was bleeding a lot and then I happened to know of a small clinic around here, so I had the man brought in on the spur of the moment. -Ok," Matteo replied again.

Anna, who was following him, had difficulty listening. According to what this man said, would Cristian's face be particularly injured?

Would there be no scars left afterwards?

Anna forgot what Matthew had told her not to say before he arrived and asked, "How bad is his wound? What did the doctor say? Will it leave a scar or something?

The question had been really precise, and the man, who a moment earlier had been somewhat pleased with himself, was dejected after hearing Anna's words.

-The doctor came to examine him, and the wound on his face was so severe that he said it would eventually leave a scar.

-What? -Anna exclaimed, -How could this happen?

Serena will be heartbroken when she finds out.

Her surprised cry drew a look from the man and a certain displeasure in response to his words.

-This cannot be helped, it is hard enough to bring him back to life when he is so badly injured, it is unrealistic to expect him not to be scarred or something.

-But a scar shouldn't be on his face, II Anna still felt heartbroken for Serena; the wounds on her body could be covered with clothes, how could she hide the ones on her face? The more Anna thought about it, the sadder she felt for the couple.

Without realizing it, she lowered her head, not knowing that the person in front of her had stopped, so her head collided with him without warning.

Bang!

Anna's forehead ached and she took two abrupt steps backward, looking up to see Matthew staring at her coldly.

She closed her lips, her expression displeased.

-What are you doing?

Anna shook her head and raised her hand, rightly, to cover her forehead injured by the impact.

-I'm sorry.

Matteo withdrew his gaze.

-Matteo, the wounded man is inside, the hospital gave instructions not to let too many people in, so I won't accompany you inside, I'll stand guard outside. -Okay.

Matthew nodded, looked up and walked through the door.
