The atmosphere in the hospital room was a little depressing.
Chandler didn't want to argue with her.He took her on vacation, dreaming of a relaxing holiday.
However, she had to stay with Christina and almost lost her life.He was scared out of his wits when he heard the news.
Crystal was hurt badly, but nothing had happened to Christina.
Christina was the smarter one with quick response ability.
Besides, she was the one who caused this trouble.
Why did Crystal end up in the hospital? Chandler felt unworthy for her.He didn't know why she was angry with him.
Chandler walked to the small balcony of the room and opened the window.
Achill came from outside.He adjusted his mood.
Crystal lay on the bed and looked at his back with mixed feelings.
Crystal was touched.She didn't think that she would see Chandler the first thing when she woke up after an accident.
She still couldn't believe that they had gotten married after they accidentally had sex.It was like a joke.
She didn't even dare to tell Christina about it because she felt ashamed.
It turned out that he was worried about her.
Crystal felt surprised but also a little depressed.
"Can I use your phone? I want to call Christina.I don't want her to worry about me."
Crystal hesitated for a long time and said in a soft voice in Chandler's direction.
Chandler suddenly turned around and stared at her with burning eyes.
He lifted his eyebrows as if to say, "what can you do if I don't give you my phone?"
Crystal knew his character by heart and added, "You are worse than Geoffrey.I don't even need to talk sugar to Geoffrey."
"I am?"
Chandler raised his voice, but there was no anger in it.He walked towards her in big and loud steps to scare her deliberately.
Cyrstal shrank back against the headboard, looking like a frightened little animal.She watched him approach warily.
Chandler wanted to laugh at her cowardly expression.
He knew that she was always afraid of everything.
That was why he felt upset when she tried to sacrifice herself to save her friend.
"If Christina had noticed that something was wrong before I had, she would have pushed me away as well.I know she will."
Crystal looked a little awkward sharing her feelings.
"She has helped me so many times before.She reacted on her instinct.I was just following her act."
Her voice became lower and lower, and she felt a little ashamed.
"Chandler, I'm going to tell you something that I've never told anyone before.During the time of our friendship, Christina has always been the bigger person.I was good to her because she put in more effort at first."
Chandler was surprised by what she said but still wanted to tease her, "Is that right? Why didn't I realize that Miss Dickens was such a great person?"
"You know what, many people do good things because they wanted people to see them.Crystal looked at him, and her expression grew serious.
"I feel insecure like everyone else.I pay much attention to how others think of me and how they treat me."
