Falling For My “Disabled” Wife by Veronica Winifred

Chapter 15 

The sound of the vase hitting the body and a low grunt occurred simultaneously. Then came a loud. crash as the vase fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. 

Sophie instinctively curled up into a ball. After a moment, she realized that she didn’t feel any pain. She even felt warm. Sophie opened her eyes. To her surprise, she found herself being held by someone! It was none other than Roger. 

A trace of blood flowed from the right side of Roger’s forehead, probably from being hit by the 

vase. 

“Oh my God! Roger! Are you okay?” Sophie exclaimed. She thought, ‘How did Roger appear out of nowhere? And why did he just come rushing over to protect me?” 

“How did you rush out to protect me?” Sophie asked; her eyes full of shock. Roger shouldn’t be able to see, right? How did he come to protect me at that moment?‘ she wondered. 

Roger’s eyes quickly flickered with a strange light, but it instantly returned to dullness. He looked ahead with unfocused eyes, holding his head in a daze. “I just… heard you calling, so I came over. I didn’t expect… It hurts!” 

Roger suddenly covered his wound, prompting Sophie to shift her attention. She quickly checked Roger’s injury. “Let me see!” 

Sophie removed Roger’s hand and hurriedly examined the wound on his forehead. It seemed that the mouth of the vase had hit him and caused a small wound. Although it wasn’t big, being injured by the sharp edges of porcelain would have hurt. Sophie was upset. She regretted not being injured herself. There was no need for Roger to suffer for her. 

The servant finally regained her senses and approached them, apologizing profusely, “Sorry, Mr. Roger! We were cleaning up the garden in the backyard, and Million ran out… I’m so sorry!” The servant seemed frightened and apologized repeatedly to Roger. 

Roger was about to say it was okay, but Sophie got angry. “Roger is already injured. Are your apologies of any use? Hurry up and get the first aid kit!” 

The servant, after being scolded by Sophie, immediately snapped back to reality. “Okay! I’ll get it right away!” With that, she ran off to fetch the first aid kit. 

Sophie, with a pained expression in her eyes, held onto Roger. “Come. Let me apply medicine for you.” 

As Sophie touched him with her gentle fingers, Roger felt a hint of warmth. Despite the pain in his head, a smile involuntarily appeared on Roger’s lips. “Okay.” 

The two of them moved to the couch, and the servant also brought the first aid kit. Sophie treated

his wound skillfully, to Roger’s surprise. 

Sophie told him, “Fortunately, it’s just a superficial wound. It’s not big, and there’s no need for stitches. But you should get a tetanus shot.” 

Roger asked curiously. “Why are you so proficient in treating wounds?” 

Sophie paused for a moment, and her eyes slightly darkened. “I often got injured in the orphanage when I was a child, and I used to treat myself.” 

When she was bullied in the Bourn family later, Sophie learned medical skills through the computer. Although she was only proficient in traditional medicine now, Sophie knew how to handle external injuries. 

Little did Sophie know that her answer made Roger purse his lips. Just thinking about her having to learn to treat wounds by herself when she was so young made Roger inexplicably upset. Who was responsible for sending Sophie from her real family to the orphanage? Roger would find out the truth for Sophie. 

Roger’s wound was just treated when other people who heard the sound rushed downstairs. 

Seeing that Roger seemed to be injured, Daisy immediately rushed over. “Oh my God! Roger, what happened to you?” 

Roger could not see and was usually very careful at home and rarely got injured. “What happened?” Daisy wondered. 

Sophie felt inexplicably guilty upon seeing Daisy so worried about Roger. “Daisy, I’m sorry. Roger got hurt because he was protecting me.” 

Before Sophie could finish, Jasmine raised her voice. “You are the one who caused Roger’s injury? Why are you so careless? You are married into the family for two days, and your husband is already injured. I think you’re not just a cripple. You’re a jinx!” 

Jasmine’s words instantly made Daisy’s face turn bad. Her son was already injured, and now her daughter–in–law was scolded. Daisy couldn’t bear it any longer and said through gritted teeth, “Jasmine, can’t you speak nicely? Roger is injured, and the person who cares most must be his wife. How can you say such things about Sophie?” 

Jasmine was rebutted by Daisy yesterday and did not expect the same from Daisy again. Jasmine’s face became unpleasant. “Daisy! Your temper has grown these two days, hasn’t it? Does having a daughter–in–law give you the courage to shout at me now? You are ill and your son is blind. Do you think having a cripple means you have someone to rely on? Dream on! Your whole family is destined to be looked down upon for a lifetime!” 

It was evident that Jasmine, after being continuously suppressed, had lost it to the point where she didn’t even care about Daisy’s pride and spoke harshly.

Having realized that Jasmine had gone too far, Rebecca quickly interrupted, “Jasmine, you went too far… 

“Did I?” Jasmine coldly snorted. “Did I say anything wrong? She caused chaos in the house as soon as she arrived here, even causing her husband to get hurt! Such a woman is a jinx! She should be kicked out of the Nicholls family!” 

Crash! A glass shattered at Jasmine’s feet suddenly. Glass shards flew everywhere. A sharp shard even cut Jasmine’s face. 

Jasmine’s cheek stung. She couldn’t help but scream, “My face!” 

Hearing Jasmine’s scream, Rebecca was startled and quickly looked in the direction behind Daisy. Sophie’s chest was heaving with anger, and the hand she used to throw the glass was still outstretched. 

Rebecca was dumbfounded. She never expected the Bourn family’s adopted daughter to be so formidable. Sophie dared to throw things and even injured Jasmine. 

“Jasmine, are you okay?” Rebecca hurriedly went to support Jasmine. 

Jasmine only felt the intense pain on her face. When she touched her face, Jasmine found it was covered in blood. She was immediately frightened. Her face turned pale. “Blood! I’m bleeding!” 

Realizing that her face was injured, Jasmine couldn’t help but look toward Sophie with anger. “You… How dare you hurt me!” 

Sophie looked at Jasmine’s furious face. With a cold gleam in her eyes, she supported herself against her wheelchair and stood up. Sophie could have stood up before, but she didn’t have much time for rehabilitation, so she couldn’t stand for too long. However, after two days of training, Sophie could stand steadily. 

Under the astonished gazes of everyone, Sophie walked toward Jasmine, approaching her in a cold and imposing manner. “So what if I hurt you? If you disrespect my husband or my mother–in–law again, I won’t just hurt your face next time. I will do much more than that.” At that moment, Sophie’s eyes were filled with bloodthirst and fury.
