Destined to Love You novel Chapter 134

In the hospital.

Angelia woke up again but found herself in the hospital bed.

She rushed to sit up as soon as she opened her eyes.

Seeing her awake, the nurse who was adjusting her IV bottle hurriedly asked her to lie down.

"Mrs. Miller, you can't get up yet. You should rest for a while longer."

Angelia looked around. "Why am I here?"

"You fainted outside the operating room."

Angelia frowned. She seemed to remember that she had been waiting outside the operating room, and then she had gradually lost consciousness.

"What about him?"

She asked hurriedly, "Is the surgery done? Where is Jonathan?"

"Mr. Miller's surgery went well. However, he suffered severe burns to his back. He'll need to recuperate in the sterile ward for a while."

Hearing that Jonathan was okay, Angelia then breathed a sigh of relief.

"I see."

As soon as the nurse left, Angelia quietly removed the IV bottle and walked outside.

She walked through the corridor and to the outside of the sterile ward at the end.

She saw the man on the bed inside through the glass.

Because the burns were on his back, he had to lie down.

The oxygen machine and EKG were working rhythmically on the side, showing Jonathan's signs of life.

Angelia leaned over the window and watched the man inside carefully.

Jonathan happened to be facing her, so she could see his face. His eyes were slightly closed and he was sleeping quietly.

A couple of nurses walked by behind her. Seeing the patient in the ward, they discussed in low voices.

"I didn't expect Mr. Miller to be so affectionate. As soon as he heard his wife was at the fire, he went right in. Even those firemen couldn't stop him."

"Really? Didn't they say Jonathan was grumpy and cold? I didn't expect him to be so gentle with his wife."

"Of course. Didn't you know about what happened at the museum not long ago?"

"But fortunately, the fire was already small when he rushed in, or the consequences would have been disastrous."

"I heard from someone who was at the scene that he refused to come out later when the fire was out and kept looking for his wife inside. That scene, alas..."

Angelia stood in front of the glass window and listened as they talked and walked away.

She wasn't there at that time. But even just from what she'd heard from others, she couldn't imagine the scene.

Jonathan rushed into the fire for her.

Jonathan searched through the rubble for her.

His body had been burned, but he was still holding her.

Seeing her with Echo, he didn't get angry.

He said it was good that she were safe.

How could she leave Jonathan, who loved her so much?

How could she bear to tell him the truth?

Angelia watched the man in the ward from a distance and didn't move for a long time.

She didn't know how long she stood until someone came up behind her.

"Angelia."

Angelia looked up and saw Echo's reflection in the glass.

He took a glance at Jonathan in the ward and said to Angelia, "Angelia, someone wants to see you."

Angelia calmed herself down and turned around. Then she saw the man behind Echo.

The man was dressed in a black suit and looked a little older than Steward. His hair was combed back, and looked slightly short.

His eyes narrowed when he smiled, like an old fox.

"Miss Wilson, hello."

Angelia was stunned when he spoke. She looked at Echo subconsciously.

How could this man know who she was?

As if he could see what she was thinking, the man smiled and said, "Don't worry. I won't tell anyone about this."

Angelia looked at him warily.

"What are you up to?"
