The look on Janet's face instantly changed, and she looked at Daniel with her eyes burning bright with rage.
Daniel cast a warning glance at Sven, but Sven smiled, and instead continued to tell Janet, "He had to do it. He was alone with Shirley in the car at that time, and when Shirley was about to get stabbed, Daniel pulled her away, and the dagger went into his arm instead."
While answering his phone, Daniel looked at the two people sitting on the sofa, whispering to each other, and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Not knowing what Sven was talking to Janet, all of a sudden Daniel saw the initial tender look in Janet's eyes turn into a blazing rage.
He quickly finished speaking on the phone, "Ask them to decorate everything according to my strict initial requirements. I'll go and check them myself tomorrow. That's it for now, and if there are any other problems, contact me again later at any time! Bye!" He finished uttering his words over the phone, and without giving the man on the other side of the line any chance to speak, he hung up.
As soon as he saw Daniel putting his phone back inside his pocket, Sven immediately stopped speaking.
Before Daniel came near them in the ward, Sven quickly said to Janet, "Jane, remember to watch him take his medicine!"
Soon enough after, Sven disappeared from the ward, and Janet was pretty shocked by his swiftness.
Daniel held Janet from the sofa and asked her to sit on his legs, but the woman refused him instantly!
"Is Sven stirring up trouble between us again?" asked Daniel. He gripped her wrists, to prevent her from moving away from him.
Janet struggled and eventually got rid of his right hand. She then pulled Daniel's right arm sleeve, and indeed, there she saw a scar on his elbow.
He figured out what Sven had told Janet.
"Jane..."
"Don't call me like that!" she yelled. She was jealous! And she was also feeling uncomfortable with the whole thing!
Why did Daniel have to risk his life to save a woman who had betrayed her?
Looking at the angry look on her face, Daniel tittered, and said, "It won't happen a second time, alright?"
When he found out that Shirley had always tried to stir up trouble between them, Daniel had decided to be merciless with her.
That meant that he wouldn't even look at her even if she was dying in front of him.
Janet confronted him, and said, "Daniel, are you always sacrificing your life to save other women, huh?" 'You've saved Kate Song, then Shirley Zheng, and now me!' thought Janet.
Daniel dragged her into his arms, and Janet tried hard to struggle, but she accidentally touched his wound on his left arm.
It was painful for Daniel, and his face instantly turned pale. When she saw him, Janet immediately stopped her struggles.
She felt her heart break, but she pretended not to care about it, and said, "You deserved it! Anyway, you don't even love me at all!"
...
'Why is she saying that I don't love her again? Didn't I confess my love to her last night? Is she doubting my words?' wondered Daniel.
He then suddenly came up with an idea. He drew back his right arm from her waist, and instead gripped tight on the bandage on his left arm.
"Ouch!" Daniel's face then became even paler from the shrieking pain.
Janet immediately stopped him, and anxiously yelled, "Daniel, are you crazy!"
'He's mad! He's hurting himself now!' thought Janet.
When she saw the bandage becoming soaked in blood, Janet began to be panicked and distressed. She tried to blow air over his wound, but soon realized that her efforts of stopping his pain were in vain. Her eyes were filled with tears.
"If no one cares about me, then just let me die!" said Daniel.
...
With tears flooding from her eyes, Janet looked at Daniel, wiped her cheeks, and said, "Daniel, you are so childish sometimes!"
'As an adult man, how could he act so childishly?' wondered Janet.
She ran to the bed and pressed the calling button. She wanted to ask for a nurse to come in and change Daniel's bandage.
