The door of the emergency room was opened slowly, and a doctor walked out.
Liam came to him quickly, “How’s she going?
“Her wound is so severe with lots of gores. But don’t be too nervous. I treat her with ice and after she wakes up, she can lie on the bed for rests with treatments.
The doctor’s explanation calmed him who was stern and serious.
He looked at the girl’s pale face on the bed, frowning with a broken heart, “So she fainted suddenly because of the injury in her waist?”
Did the silly girl struggle since she was in the Country M?
“Partly.”
The doctor’s answer made him confused, “Are there other reasons?”
“The result of the nuclear magnetic resonance shows that her injury of the muscle and the soft tissue was caused by the second attack after she was wounded.”
The second attack?
Liam silently recalled the scene that Rita hit against the bed after being pushed by Rose.
And at the next moment, he narrowed his eyes nearly to a line, with deep resentment.
The temperature of the corridor was obviously lower at once and there was even frost frozen on the ground.
Following him for so many years, meanwhile, Jacob felt his rage.
He took a secret glance of him, and was shocked by his facial expression. He was unconsciously standing still.
What the hell? Who annoyed my brother again?
His face was so horrible that he looked like the demon from the hell, in want of blood.
No matter who irritated him, he knew that he had better be silent.
‘He can’t see me. He can’t see me. He can’t see me.’
Jacob was praying quietly and suddenly, Liam looked at him, “Jacob.”
“!” Jacob seemed to be attacked by the lightening and remained at the same place.
After a few seconds, Jacob picked up his bravery and walked to him, “Liam, what…what’s wrong?”
Although he kept smiling, he was reluctant actually, saying to himself that he didn’t annoy Liam and hoping that he would not be punished by him.
“I want you to help me …” Liam leaned towards him slightly and whispered to him.
“Ok, I get it. I will do it right now.”
Jacob nodded and walked to the door.
“Rita, Rita!” A soft voice sounded beside her ears and Rita was called back to herself.
She opened her eyes to see beautiful eyes.
“Rita!” The doctor wearing the white suit was smiling charmingly at her, “What happened to you?”
Looking at the doctor who seemed to be familiar with her, Rita was confused.
Did they know each other before?
She stared at him who was just showing his eyes, recalling the men she met before.
“Do you forget me?” Michael Burke took off the mask to show his face, “I am Michael.”
The man in front of her was smiling and looking at her. She was stupefied at first and then she was surprised, “Michael? Are you Lillian Burke’s brother?”
“Yes.”
Feeling her waist cold, Rita was stupefied and turned back, “What are you doing?”
“Apply the ointment for you.”
“It’s ok. I can do it by myself.” Rita took the ointment from the man instantly and pointed to the door, “You leave room, please.”
“Just go.” Seeing he didn’t move, Rita urged him again.
But the man still ignored her request and took the ointment back by force. He ordered, “Lie back.”
“No!” She bit her lips, “My mother can do it for me.”
“But she is taking care of you father.”
“Then I can ask a nurse.”
“They are all busy.” He took out some ointment and warmed it in the palm. Then he took off the clothes of her back again.
She still refused, “Liam, we have divorced.”
But he seemed to hear nothing she said and put away her hand determinedly. Rita insisted, “I am a girl and you are a man. I don’t want you to touch me.”
“Liam.” His warm hand was on her blue back where the agony appeared. Her refusal was stopped and changed into bitter cries.
“Be gentle.” Rita complained.
Looking at her back of gores, he was heartbroken and tried to be gentler as he could.
This scene was spotted by Michael through the door, who was repeating the statement in the mind that Rita divorced with Liam.
Divorced! She was divorced!
Michael smiled brightly at the girl on the bed.
