Chapter 137
Bella’s POV:
When the doctor asked, Herbert walked over and said, “I’m her friend. How is she?”
The doctor glanced at Herbert and replied, “It’s not a big deal. We saved her in time, but she has to be treated in time. Where is her family? Some documents have to be signed and she has to pay the hospitalization fee. The patient has been sent to the ward. Inform her family to take care of her.”
Hearing this, Herbert glanced at me and replied, “She has no family now. I can pay and sign for her.”
“Fine.” Only then did the doctor take out the document and let Herbert sign it. Herbert glanced at Connor, who immediately went to pay the bill. After signing, the doctor took the document and left.
Herbert walked up to me and explained to me, “I’m sorry. She has no relatives now. I have to take care of her.”
To be honest, I found it very strange. Since she’s already his ex-girlfriend, why did he still have to take care of her?
But after thinking about it carefully, Caroline had no relatives or other friends in the city. Herbert was her only friend, and they grew up together.
If I were in such a situation, I probably wouldn’t have been able to completely ignore it.
Although I did mind the existence of Caroline, I still chose to understand and be tolerant. I said, “I understand.”
“It’s getting late. Shall I send you back first?” asked Herbert. “No need. You’d better go to see Caroline first. I can go back by myself.” I said.
I could see that he was a little anxious.
Herbert said, “Be careful. Send me a message when you get home. I’ll go to the ward first.”
“Okay.” I nodded.
Then he turned around and walked to the ward.
Looking at the back of Herbert, I was disappointed. Until I couldn’t see his back, I turned around and
slowly walked to the main door of the emergency room.
On my way home, my mood was very contradictory.
Why should I be so tolerant? I couldn’t believe that he had to take care of his ex-girlfriend.
Maybe I should have been a little more willful just now. I couldn’t let him see Caroline.
What if he fell in love with her again? Even if that was not the case, everyone knew how much she loved Herbert. What if she took the initiative to seduce him?
When I walked out of the emergency room, I suddenly saw Connor running over in a hurry.
“Miss Stepanek, the hospital needs Miss Ewell’s ID card in order to proceed with the formalities. This is the bill I paid for her just now. Please put this bill in the ward. There will be a nurse to fetch it.” Connor stuffed a stack of bills into my hands.
And then. Connor turned and left. This iust hannened to give me a chance to go back to the ward to
