Alice grabbed a few pieces of tissue and covered her nose. She had a splitting headache and had not recovered yet.
She felt really aggrieved and burst into tears.
"Alice, hang in there. I'll take you to the hospital right now."
She didn't say anything. Seeing that the tissue was wet and bloody, she changed to another piece of tissue.
Henrick searched for the nearest hospital, and this time, he carefully drove the car over.
Fortunately, there was a hospital nearby. When they arrived at the hospital gate, he parked the car steadily. He got out of the car, opened the door of the back seat, helped Alice, whose nose was still bleeding, out, and they rushed to the emergency room.
She was placed on an IV drip in the emergency room and an examination was done. He accompanied her all the way. The impact caused the blood vessels in her nose to burst and bleed, but there was no sign of a fracture.
After the examination, the bleeding stopped, and Henrick finally felt relieved.
In order to prevent any infections, Alice had to stay in the hospital for an infusion.
In order to make her more comfortable, he asked for a private ward. He waited for the infusion to be completed before he went in.
When Alice saw him, she glared at him with hatred.
He could only rub his nose resentfully. He walked in and sat silently by the bed to accompany her.
She was speechless.
"Go back and rest. I can look after myself. You don't have to accompany me here."
He looked at her and refused to leave. His voice was overbearing as he asked, "Why don't you need me? It's all because of me that you got injured. Of course I have to stay with you."
Looking at his overbearing and determined face, she remained silent.
Deep in her heart, she wanted to spend more time with him.
She had loved him for more than ten years. How could she forget him so easily?
The two of them sat quietly and did not speak. Despite this, the atmosphere was not as awkward as that in the car.
The quiet ward was filled with an indescribable atmosphere, but it was not annoying.
They looked at each other at the same time and did not look away. Alice spoke up, "Why don't you go back? It's almost three o'clock in the morning. You should go back and have a rest first."
"Alice, haven't we made things clear? Since we have done so, can't we still be friends?" Henrick looked straight at her.
He didn't want to cut ties with her. Right that, that was the idea that was in his heart.
He knew that his request was excessive, but he wanted to compensate this girl.
"Friend?" She looked at him in a daze. Was it possible that they could become friends?
Impossible?
With Juliet and Marlon around, it was impossible for them to be friends. She would not let anyone take her children away from her. They were her only reason to live, her only spiritual pillar.
However, she was selfish. The children's father was right in front of her, but she couldn't say it out loud.
"Yes, Alice, I was wrong. I want to make it up to you so that you won't feel so much pain."
"Alice, with the relationship between our two families, it's impossible for us not to meet again in the future."
"Even if we don't say that, we live in the same world and will meet some day. Do we have to be like enemies?"
"I'll change. I'll grow up. I won't hurt you like I did before. Believe me this once," he said in one breath.
He had never had such a feeling and never wanted to change himself for a person.
She looked at him in a daze. He said that he would change and grow up.
