Chapter 6

　　The dried blood stains deeply pricked his eyes and his feet unconsciously walked in the direction of the door. 　　"Jeric!" Seeing this, Beatrice quickly grabbed him, "I... I feel a little cold!" 　　But it seemed like he hadn't heard of it and continued to walk forward with great strength, dragging himself out a few steps. 　　Inexplicably panicked, she stubbornly pulled his arm, "Jeric, just when we came in, I saw a car at the intersection. I recognize that car belongs to Max." 　　"Max?!" He finally came back to his senses and suddenly turned around, with fire bursting out of his eyes and said, "What do you mean?" 　　He pinched his shoulders so much that Beatrice said cautiously, "No, it's nothing. Originally, I didn't think about anything. But now, I think that he might have come to pick up Suzy. You know, they are adoptive siblings and Max has always been very good to Suzy, so it is reasonable for him to take care of her." 　　Seeing his face, her voice became softer, "Xia told me before that Max is very special to Suzy. She even joked that sometimes she is jealous as her older sister. Therefore, I think Suzy maybe took that negatively that's why she's childish towards you. She went to Max to unwind and will be back soon." 　　"Unwind?!" Jeric sneered. "I think she is going to complain and is about to start her best acting again!" 　　He finally turned around, "It's late. Take a rest now." 　　"Yeah.", she nodded and moved closer to him without a trace. "It's really cold tonight, Jeric. You should rest early and pay attention to your body." 　　Pulling his arm out of her hand, he nodded lightly, "Yeah." 　　He glanced inadvertently from the blood stains on the floor and a strange feeling slipped through his heart. After a few seconds, he went back to the room. 　　Standing in place, Beatrice looked at the closed door and stomped her feet unwillingly. But immediately, the corners of her lips were drawn. 　　Sooner or later, she will get this man's heart! 　　—— 　　The morning sun shines through the gaps in the blinds into the room. 　　The sound of rapid footsteps in the corridor awakened Max who was lying in front of the bed while sleeping. He suddenly raised his head and turned around and saw that the door of the ward was opened. Before the visitor could speak, she couldn't help but covered her mouth in shock. 　　Ramona's words stuck in her throat and she almost missed her breath. 　　But the movement really shocked the sleeping person in the hospital bed and woke Suzy up. 　　"Ramona, you are here." Trying to open her eyes to see clearly, she barely evoked a weak smile. 　　"I'm here and I won't come again. I would not even want to see you here for the last time!", Ramona angrily said, but her tone was full of concern. "You stupid woman, when will you know how to cherish yourself!?" 　　"I know you care about me." 　　"The ghost cares about you! What's the use of caring about you? That scumbag is the reason you are lying here now. Why didn't he die!?" 　　Ramona was so angry that Max coughed vigorously, "Okay. The doctor said Suzy needs to rest now, so don't yell." 　　"Max, if you are really thinking about what's good for her, you should persuade her to divorce as soon as possible! Why are you still insisting on having a relationship with that man?" 　　She got teary-eyed as soon as these words came out from her mouth. 　　Ramona once said that she would pull up her sleeves and fight, making her bleed and sweat, but it is absolutely impossible for her to shed tears. 　　But facing Suzy alone, she couldn't help it. 　　"Ramona, you finally came here, so don't talk about these unhappy things, okay?" 　　Suzy tried to get up, but her face was pale and her lips were chapped and peeled just like the delicate petals that seemed to have withered which looked pitiful. 　　"What did the doctor say?" After sniffing, Ramona looked at Suzy. She had to change the subject. Otherwise, she couldn't control her temper. 　　"She is weak and needs to rest.", he replied. 　　Max stood there with tired bloodshot eyes. His expression was indifferent.
