The Billionaire's Mistake (Anya and Daniel)

ter 112: In a trap

“As for this hospital room, you should explain it to me. They probably saw your expensive

for clothes and put you in here like some big shot. What If you did not wake up and I had to pay i this?” She returned his cold stare with an even colder one. His cheeks puffed In her anger; she looked like a pufferfish, and he could not take her seriously.

“I have to be careful about these things. I suddenly woke up with a wife; It is easy to overthink,” he said, and she sneered and raised her hand to stop him.

“Don’t bother; I was wrong yesterday for saving your life. I have learned my lesson. I will never put my nose into other people’s business. I was the one who said nonsense anyway, so take it as my loss.” As she spoke, he could feel her dislike.

It seems his slight questioning had destroyed his image in her eyes. He was right. Hazel had thought this was a strikingly handsome man, but his cold attitude and unwillingness to apologize properly when he accused her wrongly completely crumbled his image. She did not like him one bit.

“Since you are awake, you can call your family or friends and handle the rest. I will be leaving,” she turned to walk away.

“How can you leave? I have not recovered,” he asked.

“What does this have to do with me?” She paused and looked back at him to ask.

“You are my wife, and you are going to leave me here alone? Mrs. Giorgio, since you have already told such a lie, you should at least see it to the end when I am discharged,” he said, and her eyes narrowed dangerously.

“It can’t be that you are not some big shot and are trying to get me to pay for this, right?” she asked suspiciously.

“I can pay my hospital bill; you do not need to worry.” He let out a small smile.

“Then what?”

“Since you have told such an elaborate lie, you might as well see it through to the end, at least till i am discharged.”

Hazel thought she had heard the most ridiculous words ever. She almost laughed out loud. The more this man opened his mouth, the more she disliked him. How can someone look so godly but be so infuriating? His beauty was wasted on lim. After accusing her and barely apologizing, he wanted her to help him out.

“Why should I? I don’t want to do another thankdess job,” she scoffed and started leaving the

“You are not afraid I will tell the police about a woman who must have witnessed what happened to me? Given that you brought me in and even lied about being my wife, what are the chances the police would not think you are a suspect?” he said to her, leaving back and watching her freeze. She turned around and looked at him in shock.

“That taxi driver was right; I should not pick up random people in the city,” Hazel said. She could not believe that she saved a person’s life, and he turned around to threaten her. From the moment she walked in till this moment, he had yet to thank her for saving his life. Every word he uttered had a hint of condemnation. Yet he still dared to threaten her?

“Did you feed your conscience to the wolves? Did I do wrong to save your life? Why can’t you just let me leave?” she asked: He saw the confusion in her eyes, and for a moment, he felt

uncomfortable.

“Don’t overthink too much; I just think your lie is useful and want to keep it going a few days,” he said, and she let out a small laugh.

“If you had just said so from the start, I might have gone with it; after all, I stated it in the

first place. But Mr. Giorgio. I do not like being threatened,” “after all, I stated it in the

she said as her eyes hardened.

“I will not do it. If you wish to tell the police this, go ahead. I am avoiding them for personal reasons, not because I have done anything wrong. If I explain myself, they will investigate and understand. Good day,” she said, turning around and heading for the door.

This time, he did not stop her. The moment she opened the door, she found herself face to face with a wall of tall, heavily built men wearing dark suits, covering the entire hallway.

She froze at the sight of them. They frowned dangerously and immediately blocked her way, closing in and staring at her coldly.

“Don’t be rude to my wife. Greet your Madam properly,” Mathias‘ voice came from inside the room, and those by the door froze before making a small nod in salute.

“Madam,” they greeted in unison. At this point, Hazel’s heart was already in her throat. She slowly turned back to meet the cold eyes of the patient on the bed.

She was not stupid. She had messed up this time. The taxi driver was right; she should not have picked him up. She had done one good thing and walked right into danger.

No one needed to tell her that the man staring at her coldly was dangerous.

“Close the door; your madam and I are still talking,” Mathias instructed, and the door closed behind Hazel.

“Have you calmed down? You have claimed to be Mathias Giorgio’s wife. You are just going to have to be that for a little while longer,” he said to her, standing stiffly in front of the closed door.

Hazel panicked.

“You can’t do this! My sister is Anya Shaw!” She declared, and he froze.

Hearing Hazel’s words, Matthias frozen. What? He looked at her more deeply. He had never heard of Daniel’s wife having family.

But if she was right. He could use this.

“Please pour me some water; I’m thirsty,” Mathias said, and Hazel inched closer to him nervously and poured him a glass of water. It seemed he did not react to her declaration, making her regretful. She was sure he did not believe her. She had no way to prove this.

She then proceeded to hand it to him. He took the glass for her and drank before handing it

back

“Sit,” he gestured to the chair beside his bed, and she slowly complied. Seeing her comply obediently, he felt better.

“Did you regret it?” he asked, and Hazel looked up to meet his eyes. Of course she did. She regretted it so much that she felt her insides were about to bleed. But she dared not say this. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“What?” she asked, and he raised a brow. There is no way he believed that she did not know

what he meant.

“It doesn’t matter if you do. You are the one who pretended to be my wife first,” he said, and she lowered her head.

“I’m sorry for pretending to be your wife,” she said.

“Don’t get me wrong; I don’t mean to say that what you did was wrong. It could be said that I

am quite pleased by it. You see, your lie yesterday was of great help to me,” he said, and she wanted to ask how.

“Since I was of great help, could you forgive me and let me go?” She asked, and he shook his

head.

“It is not that I do not want to let you go, but I can’t. I would feel too guilty if I did,” he said, and she felt like getting up to scream. You are not guilty enough to let off your savior. He could almost see the admonishment in her eyes when he said those words.

“When you claimed to be my wife yesterday, someone… some bad people heard you and decided that dealing with you was a better tactic than attacking me. I think they were just curious how I was suddenly married and wondered how I managed to hide you,” he said, and her eyes rounded out.
