Marry My Ex’s Uncle After Rebirth by Agatha Barney
Chapter 83

Chapter 83

The door to the ward opened, and Willow brought in a frail weman, “Mr. Fletcher, Joseph,” Willow greeted.

With teary eyes, Nancy pursed her lips. “Vincent. Joseph,” she uttered.

Joseph nodded slightly. “You guys talk. I’m going to get some food with Willow,” he said.

Nancy nodded and said, “Okay”

After the door was closed, she walked to the bed.

She clenched her fists at her sides as she said in a trembling voice, “Vincent…

Attempting to conceal his inner turmoil, Vincent suggested faintly. T’ll give you money to leave the base”

Tears streamed down Nancy’s face. “Vincent, don’t you trust me anymore? After I was captured during the mission, I faced extensive torture, but I never betrayed the base or you. I still have traces of poison in my body. I can survive because they recognize my talent for intelligence development. However, I did not sell out the core data of the base,” she said.

After a brief silence, Vincent stated, “I’m sorry. You can’t stay at the base.”

Through tearful eyes. Nancy said, “Vincent, is it just because I’ve worked for Skull Corps for a year? is it just because I didn’t end my life by taking poison

like others? Since you don’t trust me, I’d rather die!”

Then she ran to the window and was about to leap from the fourth floor.

Vincent removed the needle from his hand, then he got out of bed and grabbed Nancy’s arm as she jumped down.

His wound was pressing against the windowsill, causing him intense pain. Despite his outward composure, beads of sweat were forming on his forehead

and nose.

He held Nancy tightly and lifted her.

When Nancy was about to hug him, Vincent held her shoulder. He said, “Don’t do anything silly. I didn’t distrust you, but it’s simply not suitable for you to remain at the base anymore. I promised Mr. Freeman to take good care of you. I’m sorry that I failed, Joseph and I have been looking for you for a long time, but we haven’t heard from you. We thought you had already…

He looked at Nancy and continued, “Now that you’re back safe and sound, go live a normal life.”

Nancy replied, “I feel disconnected from society. Where can I go? Can I stay with you?”

After pondering, Vincent suggested, “You can go to Jacaster with me. I’ll arrange a position for you in the Fletcher Group as the technical director of the research department.”

Nancy eventually smiled and said, “Thank you, Vincent.”

Vincent nodded.

Concerned by his pale complexion, Nancy asked, “Are you okay?”

Lowering her head, she noticed a dark stain on his deep blue pajamas. It seemed the wound had reopened. “Your wound…” she uttered.

“Hmm, Close the window. Don’t do anything s t u p i d again,” Vincent remarked.

“Okay,” agreed Nancy as she closed the window. Then she turned around to help Vincent, who was walking to the bed.

Vincent pulled out his arm, “I can do it myself,” he said.

Chapter 83

Nancy was stunned. “Are you still doubting me?” she asked.

“No, I’m married. I have to keep a distance from other women consciously,” replied Vincent.

Nancy was shocked, her lips pursed,

She forced a smile and asked, “When did it happen?”

Lying on the bed, Vincent answered, it happened more than two months ago

He rang the bedside bell to call the medical stall,

“I’m sorry, Vincent,” Nancy apologized anxiously.

“It’s fine. I hope you won’t hurt yourself again,” said Vincent.

Nancy nodded obediently and replied, “Okay”

The medical team quickly went into the ward to check on Vincent

The doctor said, “Boss, your wound has reopened and requires re-stitching.”

Vincent nodded as he responded, “Okay, let’s stitch it here.”

The doctor nodded and asked the nurse to bring in anesthesia and medical tools for stitching-

The wound was treated in under 15 minutes.

After the medical staff left, Nancy apologized to Vincent for being impulsive.

Vincent waved. “It’s fine,” he said.

Nancy sat down next to the bed and said, “I haven’t congratulated you on your marriage. She must be pretty and gentle.”

Vincent’s eyes softened when he thought about Stephanie. “She’s beautiful but not really gentle. She’s the kind of girl who’s lively and cheerful,” said

Vincent.

Vincent’s eyes lit up when he mentioned Stephanie, sparking jealousy in Nancy.

Hiding the jealousy

alousy and hatred in her ey

reyes, she nodded and said, “The woman you like must be amazing.”

“I don’t just like her. I love her,” Vincent whispered.

Nancy was surprised and hurt when she learned that Vincent had gotten married while she was away for a year.

Nancy thought, ‘Why didn’t I return sooner? if I had come back three months earlier, I could have prevented their marriage. It doesn’t matter. They can still get divorced despite getting married!”

Just then, the phone on the table chimed with the incoming video call.

With a smile, Vincent answered the phone. “Stephie,” he uttered.

Upon learning from Joseph that Vincent was drunk and likely to be awakened soon, Stephanie promptly initiated a video call

Noticing Vincent’s extremely pale face, she could not help but frown. “Are you feeling unwell?” she asked.

Vincent smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I drank too much and had a stomachache.”

Stephanie was displeased. She questioned, “What kind of significant project is causing you to drink like this? In that case, we might as well give up this

project.”

30 May

“It’s settled. Don’t worry. I’ll go back to accompany you after I deal with some follow-up matters. Will that be okay?” Vincent said.

“Alright. I can see that you’re feeling quite unwell, so I’ll refrain from saying anything else. Have a good rest, okay?” stated Stephanie.

“Got it,” replied Vincent

“I hang up now. Go and rest more,” Stephanie advised.

Nay, agreed Vincent.

Vincent’s gaze remained glued to the phone screen even after the video call had ended.

He missed Stephanie and wanted to talk to her more, but he was afraid she would replace out the truth.

Nancy despised Stephanie intensely as she observed the affectionate expression on Vincent’s face.

After returning to Jacaster, she must figure out a way to separate the two!

Joseph and Willow entered the ward, carrying lunch boxes.

Noticing Vincent’s visibly paler complexion, Joseph asked, “Are you okay? You don’t look well

“This is nothing” replied Vincent.

Nancy told the truth because she knew she could not hide it.

Joseph cast a cold glance at her. “You were aware of his injury, yet you still did it anyway. Did you not consider the consequences?” he questioned.

Nancy looked down and apologized, “I’m sorry.”

Realizing Nancy was on the verge of tears, Willow tugged at Joseph’s sleeve. “That’s enough. Nancy just came back. It’s understandable for her to be emotional Stop talking about it,” said Willow

Joseph saw the chowder brought for Vincent and realized Vincent could not have it. He said resentfully. “I’ll go replace a doctor to give you some fluids.”

He turned to look at Nancy and said, “He needs more rest. You and Willow can go first. I’ll stay and take care of him.”

Nancy pursed her lips. “Can I stay here?” she asked.

Joseph replied, “Vincent is married. It would be inappropriate for you to stay here with him.”

Nancy was unhappy, but could not express it.

She smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll leave with Willow.”

After they left, Joseph searched for a doctor to provide Vincent with fluids.

Alter the nurse gave Vincent a drip, Joseph started eating from the lunch box.

While eating, he said, “You were right not to keep fancy at the base. As soon as she arrived, many people came to me to oppose her staying.”

Vincent agreed, “I’ll bring her back to Jacaster to join the research department of Fletcher Group as the technical director.”

Joseph was stunned. He asked, “Are you taking her back?”
