Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 172

Adelaide heard her words clearly, tears streaming down her face instantly. It was her last memory before she became unconscious. What she remembered was still her safety. Adelaide bit her lower lip and didn't realize it until her lip was bleeding.

Although she was not awake, it was a great improvement that she could speak and hear Adelaide's words. Adelaide stayed by her side for fear of missing out on what she had said.

Antonio stayed aside and couldn't find a chance to speak, and couldn't say anything to comfort Adelaide. Seeing that Adelaide insist on bending over even if her wrist turned somewhat red, he opened his mouth, but finally couldn't help pulling Adelaide away.

"Hanna need fresh air. It will be not easy for her to breathe fresh air if you do that." He said softly.

They sat down again beside the bed, neither talking nor moving. After their sitting for a long time, Hanna finally opened her eyes slowly. Seeing this, Adelaide's first reaction was to ask her whether she was thirsty or not and whether she felt uncomfortable or not.

Hanna was such a lively and active woman, but was lying on the bed quietly like she did. After listening to Adelaide quietly, Hanna smiled with difficulty, opened her mouth, and coughed lightly before she asked, "I'm fine. How about you? Channing must have put some drug in the water."

Hanna still cared most about her, which tormented her. How much she wished that Hanna would scold her, beat her and say she was a troublemaker, but she still smiled and said nothing. Looking away, she saw Antonio and then nodded with relief, "I'm glad that you you're okay. That bastard dared to dope us. I won't let him off."

Hanna hadn't mentioned her experience since she woke up. Adelaide felt as if thousands of arrows pierced her heart. She wanted to embrace the fragile Hanna, but she didn't know if she should do it because Hanna was as fragile as a doll now.

She gritted her teeth and smiled, "Well, we can't let that scum off."

Hearing this, Hanna smiled and there were small beads of sweat on her pale forehead. Adelaide saw the sweat with her sharp eyes and stretched out her hand to wipe it off.

"Adelaide, I'm very thirsty and want very much to drink some water."

Adelaide nodded with great strength. She didn't want Hanna to be out of her sight for a moment, so she took a look at Antonio. He understood and immediately went out to buy some water.

After drinking some water, Hanna lay down on the bed and fell asleep again. There had been several wounds on Adelaide's lower lip because she bit it. She clenched her hands into fists and said to Antonio, "You go or I go."

Antonio was a little stunned, but he soon understood, nodded and strode away from the ward.

Channing walked in the street with his head lowered. There was still a dull pain in the wounds caused by Antonio yesterday.

But he felt a little better at the thought of the huge reward Alvin had promised him.

At least, wounds would heal slowly, and the money he received would be enough to cover his expenses for a long time.

In fact, he had gotten a plan in his mind. After a few days, when he somewhat recovered from injuries, he would go to find a prostitute.

Back home, Channing lay slumped in bed and closed his eyes. He didn't sleep well yesterday because of the pain in his wounds.

Now he was so sleepy that he didn't think of anything else in his mind. He had to sleep first.

Time passed slowly. Channing soon fell asleep.

He didn't look good when he was sleeping. He looked particularly awkward with his lame leg tilted.
