Chapter 7
"Well, you have been tired for the past two days. Leave her to me and I will take care of her!"
Ramona was also decisive and made a decision quickly.
But Max shook his head, "No, I appreciate your kindness, but you still have your affairs and work to do. I will take care of Suzy."
"What about you? Don't you have anything to do?"
"Nothing is more important than Suzy. Don't worry, in the future, I won't let her be hurt again. I will take care of her."
Seeing Max's firm eyes, Ramona wanted to say a few more words, but swallowed them again. "Well, it is indeed the most suitable to have you take care of her."
Ramona went back to the ward and talked to Suzy for a while but unavoidably cursed, "That scumbag!" She then left uneasy.
Max brought in a large bag of daily necessities and saw her lying on the hospital bed looking out the window half-face.
In this season, there is actually no beautiful scenery outside the window, but there are only a few dead trees, and the leaves turn around on the branches, and they fall down without being able to hold them. It is very depressing.
"It's dinner.", he deliberately raised his voice while his voice, Suzy turned her head, and the corners of her bloodless lips rose up, "Is it porridge again?"
"What else are you looking for? I know you're drying to eat a grand banquet, aren't you?", he deliberately joked. He then urged her, "Get well soon. When you get better, I will treat you whatever you want to eat!"
"I'm afraid I will eat you down."
"Bring your horse here!", Max smiled.
While talking, he had already put all the dishes and chopsticks in place, and carefully pulled the chair to the edge of the bed to sit down. When he was about to reach out to serve the porridge, Suzy said, "I'll do it myself."
"What am I here for? I should take care of you now. Don't move!" He scolded, but his voice was full of spoiling.
Suzy's eyes were teary and she doesn't know how long she hasn't been spoiled like this.
When her parents and sister were still there, the family was still in harmony. At that time, she was like the baby in the palm of the family, but since...
"Eat this while it's hot.", Max opened the lid of the porridge bowl, quietly half joking.
"Max, thank you."
"There you go. You're saying non-sense thing again. I am your only relative now. The only one!"
Deliberately emphasizing those three words, Suzy's eyes flashed and her eyelashes trembled.
Turning his head to look over, Max put down the things in his hand, turned around and gently hugged her in his arms. He then leaned her head against his chest, "Suzy, even if everything is too late, we can start again!"
Suzy's body trembled and she said nothing.
——
Outside the ward, someone's face was blue, and his hands that were loosely inserted in his trouser pockets were tightly clenched into fists.
The ugly complexion and the appalling aura from all over his body made the passing nurses retreat for fear of being angry.
He didn't know how much endurance he had used not to kick the door to open although he really wanted to do it.
Very good! Sure enough, she is good at acting just like in dramas!
Originally, he heard that she was admitted to the hospital. He really thought she was seriously injured. After struggling for a long time, he persuaded himself to take a look at least. But what happened?
It turns out that it is just her way of switching to the embrace of others, no wonder that he is so determined to divorce him suddenly.
You're really good Suzy!
Thanks to his restlessness in the past two days while hating his selfish cold-bloodedness. He couldn't help but worry about whether there's something wrong with her or what. Thinking about it now, he realized that it's a great joke!
He should really kick open the door and tear off her mask. But when he's about to do so, he held himself back again.
Why does he need to bother?!
This should actually be the result he wanted. She finally stopped haunting him and finally, he didn’t have to see her disgusting face again nor didn’t need to be fettered by Xia’s last words. She was the one who get herself lost. Instead of taking care of her, she can finally get out of his world!
With crimson eyes, through the glass window above the door frame of the ward, he stared at the people embracing inside and finally turned around and left in strides without stopping.
