"Only old people like bright-coloured clothes. They think it’s attractive."
"Stop laughing at my fashion sense again!" Oscar roared from the other end of the phone.
Theresa's words obviously annoyed him.
Theresa smiled. "Alright, I’ll stop, okay?"
"That’s more like it. Hurry up and give me the address." Oscar was actually not angry at all, he just wanted to enliven the atmosphere and tease Theresa. He knew that she was in a bad mood to take care of Armand here and he wanted to make her a little bit happier.
Theresa said the address again.
Oscar replied okay. They said goodbye and hung up.
Theresa turned around, and Armand closed his eyes again. He was a little flustered.
Sometimes, instinct was not only for women but also for men. Armand sensed crisis.
It was not that he didn't believe Theresa, he was afraid that she would fall in love with someone else over time.
In City C, she always stayed with Oscar. She will certainly develop feelings for him, even if it is not between men and women. This is human nature.
Theresa went to fetch water and came back to wipe Armand's face and hands.
Armand deliberately moved his fingers. He can't pretend it anymore. What if he scares Theresa away?
Wouldn't he lose more than gain?
Theresa realized his finger moved and called him emotionally, "Armand, Armand."
Armand didn't respond. Theresa thought she was hallucinating. She carefully observed his fingers. After a while, he moved again and had deliberately enlarged his movements.
This time Theresa made sure she saw it and she hurried to call the doctor.
The doctor came over and pretended to check. Seeing Armand could wake up at any time he wants and even look real, he secretly complained that it was a pity for Armand not to be an actor.
Yet since he was bribed by him, he could only cooperate with the acting.
Theresa stood aside and asked nervously, "Is he about to wake up?"
Armand secretly jerked the doctor's sleeve. The doctor immediately said, "The patient is likely to wake up. His movement proves that he is conscious."
Theresa nodded and asked, "When can he wake up?"
The doctor thought for a moment. "Anytime."
Theresa nodded with a sigh of relief.
"Call me if there’s anything," the doctor said.
Theresa said, "Okay, thank you."
The doctor felt guilty. "You’re welcome, it's my duty."
After the doctor left, Theresa continued to clean Armand's face.
She went to pour water and found that Armand woke up when she returned.
Armand said softly, "Theresa."
At that moment, he really looked like he had just woken up and was weak.
Theresa held his hand. "You're awake."
Armand looked at her. "What's wrong?"
