Olivia looked at her and nodded. “Okay. Go ahead.” Kate felt slightly upset but she was, in fact, upset at herself. She was upset by her soft-heartedness, and she was also annoyed with herself for being persistent despite knowing that things wouldn’t work out. She couldn’t even contain herself from showing concern.
Somehow, she felt that she lacked dignity. That was a man who didn’t take her to heart, so why did she still want to express her concern for him anyway?
She angrily raced after him and trailed behind him. Meanwhile, Kate spent quite some time coaxing herself that Nathan had sustained those injuries because of her so out of obligation, she couldn’t ignore him. Yes, I’m not going after him because I care about him.
She walked out of the hospital ward and chased after Nathan to the elevators. At that moment, she saw that he was about to enter the elevator, so she voiced out, “Wait up!”
Suddenly, Nathan paused in his tracks and there was a furtive smile on his lips. I knew that she wouldn’t just stand idly and watch as I go and get us some food by myself. I’m injured after all! See… She’s here! In fact, he had been quite worried earlier on that she wouldn’t come out.
Right now, he realized that she still cared about him so his happiness was evident. He tried hard to suppress his smile as he slowly turned around to look at her. “Why did you come out?”
At that point, Kate glared at him angrily. “You’re injured so what can you do by yourself? He told you to send someone, so you should listen to him and send someone else to go and do all this! Why do you have to put on a strong front when you’re obviously unable to do it?!”
Meanwhile, Nathan was evidently very content to hear her words and expression. It had been so long since she had spoken to him in such a manner, so he relished in it. With a smile, he replied, “I can manage this. Besides, I’ve got you here with me too!”
As soon as Kate heard that, she paused in her tracks for a moment, and she suddenly felt quite offended as she looked at Nathan with a hostile look. “Did you expect me to come out after you?”
The feeling could be described as her contemplating the situation for quite some time while she struggled to make up her mind. In the end, however, he knew exactly what was on her mind.
