When Sophia entered the coffee shop, she saw Anna at a glance. She walked to her slowly, and Mary found a place nearby to sit down and wait for her.
She didn't know why her future mother-in-law suddenly asked her to have coffee, and she was a little nervous.
"What would you like to drink?" A smile spread over Anna's face.
"Cappuccino." Sophia smiled gracefully.
The waiter quickly brought the coffee here.
"Candy is here." She put the sugar in front of Sophia and asked, "do you need any help?"
"No, this tastes good. I don't drink too much sweet." Sophia shook her head.
Anna took a sip of coffee and asked, "are you still in the rehabilitation center?"
Sophia nodded slightly.
"Is it effective?"
"I will go to hospital for reexamination next month. If the result is not good, the doctor will change a set of treatment."
"You said before that you would work hard to be his assistant. You wanted me to trust you, but now you couldn't even take care of yourself. And he even distracted his attention to take care of you. Don't you know it's hard for him to adjust his work?"
"I will get better soon." Sophia added. Her voice was very low and light, without any confidence.
"What if you're not fine?" Said Anna, pursing her lips.
"I will try my best in rehabilitation." Sophia looked down, not daring to see the expression on Anna's face.
Anna kept silent for a while and stirred the coffee in her cup, and then said, "I've asked the doctor for you. The only hope of recovery in your situation is only one percent, which means that your arm might have been like this all the time."
At the thought of this, Sophia's heart sank abruptly. This was what she feared the most. Her lips were trembling. She used her left hand to pinch the right arm, very hard. She was too angry to give any response.
"I know you are a good girl, but unfortunately you are not. All Lucas needed was a gentle wife. But you couldn't do it anymore. If you still stayed with him, you would become his burden sooner or later. If you love Lucas, you can stop loving him until now. Don't wait until later when you are tired. It will only hurt each other. " Anna said very euphemistically, but what she meant was very clear.
"I know what you mean." She stood up.
"Don't tell him what happened today."
Without a word, Sophia walked out of the room silently.
It began to rain outside.
Lightning flashed in the deep clouds, rumbling thunders and shaking the trees on the road.
In front of her was a large area of white, and she could not see anything clearly. She was almost unconscious and moved her feet mechanically.
Cold rain poured on her face, her hair, face and clothes. The cold air swept through every inch of her skin, swept into the bone marrow, and enveloped her heart.
She walked, walked. She didn't pay much attention to the road outside. She just went through a puddle, and the wet street.
The car was passing by her. A passer-by passed her by, and the shrill horn was ringing in her ears
"Miss Sophia!" Mary rushed over and took her back to the car. "Are you okay?" She looked at her uneasily.
She did not speak, and her dull eyes fixed at an empty corner. Her whole body seemed to have fallen into another world, a cold and dark world.
