When Emily woke up and opened his eyes, Franklin was no longer around.
She turned over and lay on the spot where Franklin had slept before, and there was Franklin's breath on it. She couldn't help but curl her lips and lay down on the bed, laughing. If the nurse hadn't come to check on her, she would have laughed for a few more minutes.
Lisa came to bring her food and was surprised to see her smile on her face, "What's wrong with you today? You seem to be very happy."
Of course I am. Franklin came last night, and he didn't misunderstand me."
"I see." Lisa chuckled.
Emily took thermos and said as he ate, "We're back together now. No matter what others think, as long as he doesn't misunderstand, I'm not worried."
"But... Forget it, I won't tell you." Lisa thought about it and decided not to tell her.
Emily looked up in surprise and asked, "But what?"
"Nothing."
"If there's anything, just tell me," said Emily.
Lisa sighed and said, "What's the use of telling you? You are a patient now. It's important to take good care of yourself. If Mr. Brent asks you to take good care of yourself, you should take good care of yourself. Don't let him worry about it."
"Lisa, I find you're getting more and more verbose." Emily curled her lips.
Lisa glared at her resentfully. What a fearless ignorant person!
After dinner, Lisa went back. Emily was bored alone. He turned on the tv for a while and couldn't help but call Franklin.
Yesterday was a huge leap for both of them. She confessed to Franklin, and Franklin did not humiliate her. This meant that even if Franklin didn't love her, but at least he didn't hate her, he could still accept this feeling.
When love came, it was like a flood. Emily's heart was full and she couldn't wait to hear Franklin's voice.
But the call went through, and Franklin didn't answer it.
Emily frowned and texted him to see if he was coming tonight.
It took about two hours for Franklin to reply. No.
Emily sighed and muttered to herself, "Can't you just write one more word? Are text messages charged by word?"
But she thought that Franklin was only not coming tonight, but she didn't expect that there would be no news the next day. The doctors told her they could leave the hospital, but they couldn't reach Franklin. Emily was upset and refused to leave the hospital for a while when Franklin came.
And that was another three days.
On the third day, the door of the ward opened. Emily jumped out of bed excitedly and shouted, "Franklin."
"I'm Andrew," Andrew said with a smile.
"Because I like you. I want you to divorce Franklin. I want to use some extraordinary means to force you to break up so that I can be with you." Andrew said boldly.
Emily: ..."
"You're crazy! I don't like you, and I can't like you."
"It doesn't matter. The important thing is that I like you. And you're right. I'm a psychopath. Someone else should have told you that!" Andrew said with a smile.
Emily gritted his teeth and reasoned with Andrew. It was like a fist on cotton, which had no effect at all.
She was so mad at Andrew that she couldn't help but rush up to give Andrew a slap.
But she didn't expect Andrew to move faster than her. He grabbed her hand with one hand and held her in his arms with the other.
Emily, you don't know! The day I went into the mountains was the day of my mother and sister's sacrifice. Every year on that day, I got sick and had a fever. But you used your actions to tell me that there was still family in this world. I wanted to take you into the mountains and let you die there with me, so that you would know that there is no kinship in this world, only despicable interests. But I really didn't expect you to save me. Since we both survived, you will be with me from now on and spend the rest of your life with me."
"Who wants to spend the rest of your life with you? Let go of me, you lunatic. I didn't live for you. I don't want to have anything to do with you for the rest of my life." Emily struggled and cursed as he struggled.
Andrew held her tightly and asked, "Who do you want to be related to? Franklin? A man like him, a family like that, is not something that a woman like you can covet. If you insist on being with him, you will end up with bruises all over your body."
"I will do it even if I'm covered in bruises," Emily yelled.
Suddenly, he lowered his head and bit Andrew's wrist hard. Andrew frowned in pain and let go of his hand. Emily took this opportunity to push him away and run out of his arms.
