"I just helped you out, how are you going to repay me?" Levi watched Ruby come over and decided to make the first move and take the initiative.
Ruby had just thought that the man in front of her looked familiar, when he opened his mouth, it immediately dispelled her thoughts.
She was also stupid, how could she think that the man in front of her was the same as her scheming fiancé?
Ruby shook her head and banished this thought from inside her mind before rolling her eyes, "I didn't ask you to help me out, so what? You took matters into your own hands and you still want me to be grateful? You are overthinking."
Ruby's sharp-tongued look made Levi's lips hook up, glancing at the situation inside the ward, Amanda was still arguing with Eden at this time. Eden was a svelte man, how was he a match for several women, being surrounded there with a face of anger.
As for Mrs. Lee, who had fainted on the floor, and Mr. Lee, who was lying on the hospital bed, at this moment were completely forgotten by the people around.
"What's wrong with him? Can he be saved?" The Finn family didn't have much business with the Lee family, but Monty Lee was a good person, and Levi had dealt with him a few times and had a good impression of him.
"No." Ruby replied casually, with a lack of interest, clearly not wanting to mention his illness.
Levi saw this and didn't mention it much. He looked at the time, Amelia had been found by Chester, and now she had been sent back to the ward, he was planning to go over and take a look.
"I still have things to do, I'm leaving." Ruby didn't say much to Levi, they weren't familiar with each other after all.
She turned to leave.
Levi watched her back thoughtfully for a long time before he withdrew his gaze and went to Amelia's ward.
Amelia sat on the hospital bed with a pale face, and when she saw Levi coming, she hurriedly looked away from him, unwilling to look at him, "Levi, what are you looking for me for?"
"Don't do anything stupid, I've always counted on what I've promised you. It's just that my identity is special, it will be dangerous for you to follow me." Levi looked at Amelia, like that night five years ago, when she woke up and lay beside him, she also looked like this, soft but strong, saying that she didn't need him to be responsible.
It was also because of her reaction in that moment that made Levi fall for her.
"I'm not afraid of danger. Levi, I don't want to drag you down, in my current state, I'm already an invalid, even if I marry you, it's impossible for me to get pregnant. I don't want to hold you back. You'd better leave me alone and let me fend for myself. My grandfather has given up on me anyway, I... what's the point of me living?" Amelia said in a low voice, tears began to well up in her eyes, but she was stubbornly holding them back, not willing to let them fall.
Looking at her like this, Levi became more and more unbearable, ''What nonsense? I have never felt that you are a drag. Alright, take care of your injuries in the hospital, leave everything else to me, don't think too much about it, okay?"
"Levi ......," Amelia raised her head, tears slid down her pale cheeks, the look pitiful.
Levi sighed and stepped forward, reaching out to rub the top of her head, "I never said I would give up on you, and you shouldn't have such thoughts, so be good and wait for me. When I've taken care of everything, I will marry you."
"But, Levi, I ......" Amelia's tears flowed more fiercely, she desperately raised her hand to wipe her tears, not wanting her so wretched appearance to fall in Levi's eyes, but she couldn't control it. In the end, she jumped directly into Levi’s arms, crying uncontrollably.
