Vincent also got out of the car, went to her side, whispering, "Leila, I'll go to see Pippa today, OK?"
Leila was stunned, wondering why he would ask her. "Go ahead. Why do you ask me?" she asked.
"I want you to know everything about me!"
Vincent said seriously, and Leila nodded, "Actually you don’t need to let me know. You can do anything you want. We should have trust in each other, and we’re free to do anything we want."
"You have total freedom to do whatever you like, but I want you to know what I've done. I'm willing to tell you anything!" he said.
With a faint smile, Leila was delighted, and she didn’t expect that she would be so easy to be satisfied. She nodded in a cheerful mood. "I'm in!"
He suddenly bent down and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "Well, go in and I'll pick you up after class!"
"Good!" In a good mood, Leila went into the base with lively steps. Behind her, Vincent’s eyes were lingering on her and he was reluctant to leave until she was out of his sight.
The sky was clear and blue, dotted with white clouds, and even the sun was not dazzling. It turned out that people's mood changed with their emotions. On the way to the company, Vincent drove the car with a smile on his face, and he greeted every employees when he went into the company, whether he knew them or not.
When he ran into Arthur, Arthur asked in curiosity seeing how delightful he was, "You and Leila are back together?"
"Yes.”
"You look in a good mood!"
"Yes, indeed!"
Hearing this, Arthur felt complicated, happy and disappointed. Leila could be happy. He should be happy for her, but why would he feel lost?
Vincent dealt with several documents and said to the Arthur, "I am visiting Pippa now. And the meeting, inform Macey to return home!"
"Good!"
In the hospital.
When Vincent came to the ward where Pippa was, he saw two people in black guarding outside the door. It looked like they were monitoring Pippa. He failed to know the purpose of Miyamoto doing so.
When he went in, Pippa was surprised at the sight of him. "Vincent, you’re here. Is it you?! I knew you would come to see me. You come to see me! "
Vincent wore the guard on his expression as he saw the sudden change on Pippa’s face. He nodded. "I drop in and see how you are!"
"How are you? Vincent. I’ve been waiting for you to see me. What does it take so long? You know what? I miss you so much.”
Vincent was startled after hearing her words, wondering whether she was recovered or not. If she was well, how could she say that? He suddenly regretted that he had come to see her. But then, her next words puzzled him again!
"Vincent, don't be afraid. I'm not a monster. You don't have to be so alert!"
As Pippa came over, Vincent subconsciously stepped back, but she said with a shy smile, "Don't be afraid, I won't pester you! I’m so happy to see you. I'm bored these days! Miyamoto sent someone to watch on me. I don't know what he meant, and I'm not allowed to go for a walk in the garden. The doctor allows me to go out, but his people won't! "
Pippa said in an aggrieved tone, and Vincent was relieved as she presented her ideas clearly.
"Vincent, I'm good, I'm really fine! Can you tell Miyamoto not to let people watch on me?" Pippa said, "I just want to take a walk in the garden. Anyway, the gate is closed, and I can't get out! I also know that I will go to prison after I get well. If I hurt Renee, I should bear the legal consequences. I know what I’ve done is serious! But just want to take a walk in the garden, and that's all.”
Vincent frowned suspiciously. "Pippa, you know Miyamoto won’t care about what I said, and he is in no position to affect me either, but I can have a try!"
"Thank you, Vincent!" Pippa was immediately surprised and smiled. She said gratefully, "Vincent, you are still so kind. Thank you!"
"You're welcome. I hope you get better soon, too!"
"Well! I will. How is Owen?" Pippa asked again.
"Good! He's with Miyamoto now, and they are very close. Don't worry!" Vincent's eyes fell on Pippa. Her hair was rolled up into a sideburn, looking immaculate and clean. Even if she was hospitalized here, she looked very good.
She really didn't look sick, and she asked about Owen, unlike her usual self, who was a little repellent to Owen. Looking at her, Vincent felt both happy and uneasy. Was she really fine?
She didn't make any inappropriate moves. When he left, she stood by the window and said to him, "Vincent, my mother talked with me a lot to help me move on. I was wrong in the past and I caused you too much trouble. I hope you can forgive me!"
She apologized with a smile on her face. He couldn't bear it for a moment and said, "It's nothing. The past is gone. You'll be fine. You'll always be my sister!"
"Thank you!"
After leaving, Vincent called Miyamoto.
There came the voice of Miyamoto Black, "Is there any news from Renee? Did she go to Leila? "
