Chapter 779
“Of course, if not who else?” Meredith thought that it was silly of him. “It’s already been more than 24 hours and
you’re still not used to it?”
Charlie shook his head. “No…it’s like I’m in a dream.”
Meredith lowered her head and gave a light peck on his lips. “What about now? Do you still think it’s a dream?”
Charlie was stunned by her sudden kiss. He was now staring at her dazedly.
Meredith could not help but slip out a chuckle at the sight of Charlie’s adorable reaction. She tapped his cheeks
lightly and said, “Earth to Charlie, wake up now. Let’s go home and get some rest.”
Charlie then sat up straight. After a pause, he asked, “Edtih, this will be our first night together right?”

“No, absolutely not,” Charlie shook his head frantically and said, “I’ve promised…that I will make you the happiest
girl in this world. How would I possibly allow you to spend a night at such a place?” “Let’s go home then, hmm?”
“Okay.”
Holding him, Meredith walked him out of the bar. While walking, Charlie started mumbling, “I will make you the
happiest girl alive, I promise…” “Do you trust me, Edith?” “I do, very much,” Meredith replied patiently as she
helped him walk out of the bar.
“Edith, you look absolutely gorgeous today.”
While they were waiting for their ride, Charlie suddenly started smiling sheepishly at Meredith.
Meredith put her hands on her face and teased him purposely, “Oh yeah? So I only look pretty today?”
“No… you are pretty every day but you look especially prettier today. Because…you are mine from today onwards,
you are Charlie Larson’s… wife!”
He then planted a kiss on Meredith’s cheeks.
Charlie lost his balance and he almost made Meredith fall over.
“Be careful.” Meredith hurriedly held him up. Suddenly, Meredith heard someone shouting, “Look out!” Meredith
reflexively turned around to see a black car driving right toward her direction.
She froze, unable to move her legs.
Charlie, on the other hand, became sober at the sight of the blinding headlights of the car. Right when the car was
about to crash into Meredith, Charlie pushed her away with all his might.
And he was flung away as the car crashed into him.

lungs, she scrambled toward Charlie who was sprawled on the road. “Charlie, oh my god…don’t…don’t move
around!” Even though Charlie was quivering in pain, he did not forget to comfort and reassure Meredith. “I’m fine,
Edith. Please don’t cry, I’m really fine…” “How are you fine when you’re looking like that?” Looking at the blood that
was gushing out of his legs, Meredith panicked. “Charlie, stop talking, I’ll send you to the hospital right now.”
“You’re a doctor, aren’t you? That’s a relief.” One of the bystanders had called the ambulance and Meredith forced
herself to calm down as she quickly helped to stop the bleeding. Charlie, who insisted that he did not feel any pain,
passed out in the end before the ambulance had even arrived.
Meredith was not sure if there were any internal injuries and she was frightened when Charlie passed out.
After thirty minutes, Charlie was finally sent to the ER.
Standing right outside the ER was Meredith who had yet to calm down and she felt as if her heart was hanging by a
thread.
