"Melissa, he's the one who asked me out. It wasn't me asking him out." I defended myself.
He asked me out and was injured, why did Melissa put the blame on me in the end?
How inexplicable this was!
Melissa didn't listen to me. She waved her hand and said, "Go. If you don't go, I'll call bodyguards!"
She directly took out the phone and dialed a number. Then she said, "Take a few people up and drive Janetta away!"
I looked at Melissa's cell phone and was sure that she was really on the phone.
In order not to anger her, I quickly raised my hand and said with a smile, "Melissa, don't be irritated. I'll go. I'll go, okay?"
After that, I turned around, pressed the elevator button, and went downstairs quickly!
When I went downstairs, I received a phone call from the insurance company. They had rescued my car from the top of the mountain and sent it to the repair plant. It took about a week or so to fix it.
That is to say, I have no car to drive for a week.
I stood downstairs of the hospital and didn't know what to do for a moment. I was worried about Patrick. I wanted to see him, but I couldn't see him as Melissa stopped me!
Since Patrick's ward was a single room, and there was no caretaker bed, Melissa and others should not stay for a night. At night, she should leave after dinner at most.
But how could I know when they would leave?
I didn't know anyone at Medical University.
I looked up and happened to see the research center of the hospital nearby.
Calen.
I was not sure if she would help me, but I could only take a gamble.
I went to the research center and told the front desk that I wanted to meet Calen. Soon, I was allowed to go up there.
When I entered Calen's research room, she looked behind me and asked in surprise, "Do you come alone?"
"Patrick had a car accident. He's in Medical University now," I said directly to Calen.
"What? When did that happen?!" Calen was a little surprised. After a pause, she continued to ask, "Is it serious?" "Yes, it is." I nodded. "He was sent to Glorious Light Hospital yesterday. The doctor over there said that he might not be able to stand up after that."
Hearing what I said, Calen opened her mouth widely. "So serious? How could this happen? I'll go and see him!"
As she spoke, she immediately went to the door to get her clothes.
Seeing that she wanted to go, I hurried to follow her and said, "Now the Cowell Family is there and don't allow me to see him. When you visit, can you find an excuse to ask when they will go?"
Calen looked at me with a surprised expression. "You're not allowed to see? Why? Aren't you Patrick's wife?"
Her question made me a little embarrassed.
I didn't know what to say at the moment.
Calen nodded when she saw that I did not speak. "Oh, I understand. In your country, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is an insurmountable barrier. Patrick's mother won't allow you to see him as you and she don't get along well, right?"
Since she understood like this, it was also right.
I nodded quickly. "You're right, so can you help me?"
"Okay, wait for me downstairs later. I'll tell you when I'm done with my visit."
Then she put on the long coat. The coat was so long that it could cover all the white overall she wore.
However, perhaps to prove her identity, Calen even specially took the identification badge at the door and wore it around his neck before leaving.
I followed Callen back to the hospital.
I was waiting downstairs, and she went up alone.
After about ten minutes, Callen went down and said to me, "I asked. They may go back at six o'clock in the evening. You can come then if you want to."
