Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 82

Adelaide’s hands gradually warmed. It was night until she woke up. Antonio leaned his head on his palm with his elbows against the bed. At this time, he had already been so sleepy. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes before looking at Adelaide.

"Adelaide, are you awake?"

Antonio was overjoyed. But Adelaide just opened her big clear eyes. She did not answer his words.

Antonio was stunned. He asked again after a while, but Adelaide still didn’t speak.

He leaned forward and finally found that although Adelaide was awake, her eyes were hollow and dull. Antonio stretched out his hand and waved his hands in front of her eyes, but Adelaide even didn’t blink.

Suddenly, he felt creepy. He hurriedly called the nurse on duty over, but the person lying on the bed still remained silent.

"Why doesn't she speak? Didn't you say that she is fine?"

Adelaide woke up, but she couldn't speak or smile. Antonio tried every means, but it couldn't make her face show any expressions.

The nurse felt guilty with her head down. Dr. Chang had specifically told her that the patient in bed No. 35 might be mad or just be like this after waking up. The patient had suffered an extreme trauma. So what she was like now was the sequelae. Unless the patient's psychological illness was cured, she couldn’t return what she was like before. But seeing Antonio's current looks, the nurse felt scared. She didn’t know what would happen if she told the truth to him.

After thinking about it for a long time, the nurse still didn't tell him the truth, but tactfully told him that he had to find a psychologist. Then she hurried away.

Antonio turned to look at Adelaide. She was still staring at the ceiling. Antonio was not sure whether Adelaide could hear him now. So he held her hands again.

"Adelaide, can you hear me?" he asked.

After a long time, there was still no answer. Antonio lay beside Adelaide, hugged her tightly, and buried his head on her shoulders. Soon a low sobbing sound came out.

The woman's eyes were still looking at the same place. His cry did not attract Adelaide's attention. Only the big wall clock in the ward made a ticking sound, accompanied by cries.

Antonio didn’t know how long had passed. Finally, he stopped sobbing. It could be said that the nurses in the hospital witnessed life and death every day. When a new life came, they could hear countless laughter. When a person died, they could hear countless crying. The nurse sighed. These were unavoidable. The nurse picked up the earphones and put them in her ears. Instantly, she couldn’t hear outside sounds.

Antonio didn’t sleep all night. He knew that Adelaide didn’t sleep either. He pretended that nothing had happened and forced a smile, "Adelaide, morning. Let’s get up!"

Adelaide was in a trance for a moment. She opened her mouth slightly, blinked her eyes, and then returned to her indifferent expression. Antonio looked away, not letting his tears fall. He took a deep breath and turned his head again, "Adelaide, I’ll help you wash your face first! Then we go home later!"

Adelaide still did not respond. At this moment, her cell phone rang. Antonio quickly answered the phone.
