A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 519

Georgia nodded her head, "I got it! Quickly get the medicine box!"

And they were all too anxious, Georgia also didn’t notice that Arthur could walk very fast, and he had thrown away his crutches.

In fact, his leg was almost recovered, and it was just that he didn’t want her to leave! Perhaps it had been a kind of dependence, which was something like affection that had grown after living together for nine months.

Anyway, he didn’t want her to leave after he got better!

Arthur came back again with a medicine box in his hand, and he sat down.

When he saw the bloody cut on the back of her foot, Arthur's heart jerked. "Why are you so careless? If you cut on the aorta, you might die!"

"Haven’t cut on it, right?" Georgia drew a breath. "I'm afraid of pain, slow down!"

"You're afraid of pain too?"

"Nonsense, who is not afraid of pain?" Georgia grunted. "Hey! Slow down, it hurts! I'd rather be cut up than be disinfected, it hurts too much!"

"Bear with it, it'll be sterilized soon!" Arthur clamped the alcohol swab to help her wipe on her wound.

"Slow down, I'm a woman, not a pig. You don't have to get the alcohol swab into my wound, just wipe around it. Why do you have to flip out my wound and wipe it! It hurts like hell!"

"If not so, there is no other way to sterilize. The knife was just used to cut the meat and there are many parasitic bacteria on it. If I don’t help you to sterilize the flesh inside, it will be infected. If you’re infected, you’ll need to be hospitalized, if it’s major infection, then you will have to be amputated!"

"I'd rather amputate my leg than sterilize it!"

"Nonsense! All right, don't move!" He simply held her foot and carefully disinfected her wound.

When her foot was being held by him, there was a very strange feeling came from Georgia 's foot and brought her wailing to an abrupt halt.

The atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous!

Georgia slowly raised her head and looked at the handsome face. He was helping her to do the disinfection and apply the medicine seriously. After a slight loss of concentration, she smiled slowly, "In fact, it’s not so painful, it seems that I exaggerate a little."

"Don't move, I'll tie the gauze on your wound to prevent it from getting infected." He said in low voice. Arthur's eyes held a quiet concern as he wrapped the gauze, then looked up at Georgia, "Is it better now? The sterilization doesn't hurt!"

In these days, she had received Arthur's care and concern while taking care of him.

She didn’t forget that every time she had a nightmare, he was by her side. And she recalled vaguely, it was Calvin who used to accompany her in the past. However, they were now two worlds apart.

At this moment, Georgia felt Arthur's warm concern for herself. She smiled gently, looking at the back of her injured foot, and said anxiously, "I didn't expect that cutting a vegetable will almost cut into my aorta, it’s really too dangerous!"

Hearing her breathless sigh, Arthur laughed softly, "Fortunately, you’re lucky that you didn't. What were you thinking about when you were chopping vegetables? I can't believe you can get mind-wandering like this!"

"I was thinking that you should probably recovered!" Georgia said. Suddenly she was awakened with her eyes opened wide. "You, you, you’ve recovered!"

Arthur was also stunned for a moment, he lowered his head and looked at himself. Yeah! He actually just dropped his crutches.

Georgia smiled, "Arthur, you’ve recovered! You can really walk now! Just now you seemed like you didn’t use the crutches and walked by yourself! Quickly show me that you can walk!"

Looking at Georgia 's excited face, Arthur stood up and took a few steps.

"It's really better! You’ve really recovered!" Georgia murmured in surprise. Looking at the tall man in white standing in front of her, she was heartily happy. "Well, that's good! It's time for me to go and find the next person who needs my care!"

Arthur's face stiffened and he spoke hurriedly, "Maybe my leg is not really well yet, or maybe my leg will hurt again as soon as it rains, then I can't walk!"

"The doctor said it's time for you to get well!" Georgia shook her head. "If you have recovered, I should leave too!"

There seemed to be no more reason to stay!

Arthur was also silent!

After a while, he said, "Don't you move, I'll carry you to watch TV and I'll cook!"

"You know how to cook?" Georgia looked at him with some suspicion.

"You've been taking care of me for the past nine months. I’ve eaten the dishes you cooked all the time. And now, it's time for me to cook it for you! What’s more, you're now injured!"

“Okay then! Thank you very much!"

That night, Georgia felt relieved and warm as she ate the dishes that were cooked by Arthur.

At night, Arthur carried her back to her room and laid her on the bed. She laid down and spoke as he was leaving the room, "Can you stay with me for a while?"

She was wondering why whenever she was by his side, she felt an unprecedented warmth and stability. It was a warm feeling that touched her heart and made her incomparably attached, as if a tired bird had finally found a nest and didn't have to worry about the wind, frost and snow outside.

"You sleep, I'm not leaving." Listening to her begging voice, the corners of Arthur's mouth pursed slightly, revealing a perfect arc.

Lying down, Georgia spoke softly, "Arthur, don't forget to go to see Miss Spencer after I leave. She called yesterday to ask about you! Don't forget to tell her when you have recovered! Or take her here, easier to take care of her. She is old already, and you have no other relatives!"

"Yes! I also have this idea!" Arthur said.

"I know the person you like is Leila. I've observed it these few months, and every time Leila comes to visit you, you're all over the place. But what I want to say is she already has her own happiness, and will soon have a baby! You shouldn’t think about it anymore! Now that your leg has recovered, hurry up and find a girlfriend to get married!"

He was slightly surprised. "Is it so obvious that I like Leila?"

"The first few months it felt like it was! But then Leila’s belly is getting bigger and bigger, I can feel the way you look at her has gradually calmed down!" Georgia said truthfully.

"You can observe carefully!" Arthur laughed and shook his head. Inside his bright eyes, there was a perceptible concern, "How about you? Shouldn't you also find a boyfriend? Isn't it time to find one too in order to reassure that person?"

"What?"

"Georgia! Actually, you didn't say. But every time I see you having nightmares and shouting the same name, I only have a guess about it. Whatever it is, it's time to put your heart at ease! It's been nine months! You're having the same dream! Every time you’ll cry, there are some things on your mind that needs to be let go off!"

Hearing Arthur's words, Georgia closed her eyes, and there was pain crossing them!

"Thank you!" She said something that she never said, "We are friends! Let me tell you my story. I met Calvin when we were in high school. We were in puppy love, very pure puppy love until senior year. On Valentine's Day in the year that we were preparing for the college entrance exams, he was hit by a car when he bought me some roses! I saw him fall in the snow in my own eyes, saw his brains burst, saw the roses scatter all over ... Just like that, he died ..."

Arthur looked deeply at her and nodded his head heartily.

"I was called a misfortune by his family. I really didn't mean it. When I had that nightmare, it was that scene that came back to me! It was my fault, it was all my fault, if I hadn't wanted to celebrate Valentine's Day, if he hadn't rushed to buy me flowers, maybe he wouldn't be dead! It was all my fault ... I caused him to die ... He died, and I cried for a whole week ... "

At the thought of it, Georgia who was heartbroken, felt even more distressed. She even felt shivers down her spine. All of a sudden, she cried out, "Why did God have to end Calvin's life? Why? He's only eighteen years old! Only eighteen years old!"

"Georgia, Georgia!" Arthur shouted with consternation, seeing her so agitated for the first time. Her face turned pale, her whole body was trembling incessantly, and her teeth clenched tightly on her lips, as if she was suppressing an unbearable pain.

"Why? Why?" Georgia only felt a severe pain at her chest. Even after so long, she still felt her heart hurt unbearably.
