He squatted down and looked her in the eye. "Why are you ignoring me? Huh? Do you hate me?"
All she could recall was silence.
He was not annoyed and continued, "Tell me what you're thinking. I can accept it, whether it's good or bad. If you don't want to see me or talk to me, I can find someone else to replace me. Don't wrong yourself, OK?"
After Marcellus finished speaking, he could feel that the silent little woman had become even more silent. Even her eyes were looking away from him.
This attitude that Marcellus didn't want to face at all made him a little anxious. He didn't want to push her too hard, so he stood up again and prepared to go out and adjust his emotions.
Just as he turned around, he heard her extremely hoarse voice. "I just don't like your attitude."
Marcellus didn't expect her to open her mouth. When he heard this, he was a little confused. "What?"
Beryl looked up at him and said, "I heard your conversation with Kevin a few days ago. You want to reconsider our relationship after I recover, don't you?"
Marcellus was stunned as he recalled the conversation, he had with Kevin outside the ward the day after she woke up.
At that time, they all thought that she was asleep and did not close the door tightly. It turned out that she had heard it.
Beryl pointed at the wound on her abdomen. "I was injured because of you. No matter how much it hurts, I've never regretted it. But after hearing those words, I regretted it. If I had known that you would think so, I wouldn't have taken it for you at that time."
As she spoke, she felt so wronged that she even choked with sobs. Suppressing her emotions, she burst into tears. She wanted to wipe them away, but Marcellus did it.
"I'm afraid that you'll be in danger again because of me."
"So, you want to push me away?" Beryl slapped his palm away, which was trying to wipe away her tears. "I don't need you to do this."
