When we returned to Lauren's new home, she was instantly stunned by the spacious, bright, and luxurious surroundings. She turned around and hugged us both, choking up with emotion.
"Thank you! I finally have my own home." Her words made me suddenly feel sentimental and teary-eyed.
I patted her back gently and said, "You can be at ease now. This is your world. You don’t need to think about anyone else while you’re here. We’ll both support you, no matter what decision you make."
That night, Ivanna and I stayed by Lauren's side. We had a heartfelt conversation in that comfortable environment.
We talked until dawn.
In the morning, I watched them sleep peacefully, then sighed quietly and left. I needed to go to the hospital to see Trinity.
My heart hurt when I saw Trinity. In just a few days, she had lost a lot of weight. Her eyes looked like they were bulging out of their sockets, and she seemed as though she had transformed into a different person.
The lack of makeup revealed her true appearance. She looked unexpectedly beautiful, and I really liked the girl in front of me.
She didn’t seem surprised to see me when I entered.
I lifted the soup in my hand, feeling a little awkward. "Do you want some soup? I made it especially for you. How are you feeling?"
I walked to the side of her bed. There was only one nurse in the ward. When she saw me enter, she quietly closed the door and left.
"Where's Mr. Jared?" I asked.
"He needed to go deal with something," Trinity replied calmly. She kept looking at me.
"Lauren just came back yesterday. She’s been away for a long time, so that’s why I didn’t come see you last night. I'm sorry about that." I felt the need to explain why I hadn’t been here.
"Are you disappointed that I’m still alive?" Trinity stared at me.
"Where’s your conscience?" I immediately retorted. "If I wanted you to die, I wouldn’t have saved you.”
She suddenly smiled, adding a little charm to her look. She wasn’t as cold as she usually was today. It seemed that a sick Trinity was more genuine and endearing.
