At about eleven o'clock in the evening, Fiona and Spencer arrived at a private hospital in M City. On their way here, Spencer had already seen the damaged car of Terence in the accident scene, which was only ten minutes away from the hospital.
When the two hurried to the in-patient department, Terence had already been placed in bed. Vivian waited for them at the door. As soon as she saw Fiona, she rushed to her in tears.
"Where is Terence?" Asked Spencer anxiously.
"He is in the ward." Sobbing, Vivian hugged Fiona, looking frightened.
Patting on the back of her hand, Fiona comforted her, "Are you alright, Vivian? Have you had a check-up? "
"I'm fine." Vivian shook her head and said with guilt, "Terence held me. I wasn't hurt. He got hurt himself."
"Then don't stand here any longer!" Spencer frowned and urged, "Take us to the ward!"
"Okay!" Vivian nodded and wiped her tears, then led them to the ward.
In the ward, Terence was lying on the bed with his head and arm wrapped in gauze. He was dressed in a wide gown. It seemed that he wasn't seriously injured.
Spencer pushed the door in and looked at Terence, "Are you okay?" he asked
"Nothing." Terence shook his head. "It's just a glass cut." He heaved a sigh as he turned around and saw Vivian stood behind Fiona with a wronged expression, he greeted Fiona, "Hi, Fiona! I'm so sorry to call you here at this late hour. "
"You're being so fucking polite!" Spencer gave Terence a white look, "You haven't been hospital for a long time. Why did you have a car accident? Drink alcohol? Fortunately, it's not serious You scared me! "
"I drove the car." Vivian said in a trembling voice
Spencer's body stiffened and he looked at Terence inquisitively.
Terence nodded slightly and said, "It's not her fault. The oncoming car suddenly opened the high beams, which made our eyes blurred. We didn't see the car, so Vivian was driving sideways."
"So it is." Seeing that Terence was willing to help Vivian get rid of the awkward situation, Fiona quickly said, "It's great that she's fine. Don't worry. Vivian was scared to death."
"Yes." Spencer also nodded and said, "Terence, do you have only minor injuries? If so, you'd better explain to Miss Vivian. Don't make her worry all the time. She was so anxious that she was about to call your mother just now. "
Terence grinned. "I'm really fine."
"I'm sorry..." Vivian apologized and had tears in her eyes.
Fiona turned to look at Terence for help. Just as Terence was about to speak, the door of the ward was knocked. Spencer called out, "Come in.", and the door was pushed open.
"Mr. Terence, are you all right?" There were four or five people pouring in, led by a middle-aged man followed by several policemen.
"Nothing." Terence shook his head, looked at the middle-aged man and was confused, "You are..."
"Hello, Mr. Terence. I'm the chief of the police station. I heard that you had an accident, so I came here immediately... Are you okay, Mr. Terence? "
"I'm fine." "How is the accident investigation going?" asked Terence expressionlessly.
"Yes, the driver in the truck has been taken to the police." The director pointed to a young man in police uniform and said, "Tell Mr. Terence about the investigation result."
"Yes, sir!" The young policeman answered, "After checking the site monitoring and asking witnesses, we believe that the car coming to the south was a black car with its headlights suddenly opened. Now the driver who hit the car has been controlled... I came here to ask about some details and make a record. "
When they were taking notes, Spencer and left the ward.
It was already cold at the end of tenth month. They sat on the bench. After a while, Fiona huddled herself. Spencer quickly took off his coat and put it on her. Then he held her in his arms and said, "I came in a hurry, so I didn't bring any clothes with me. Put up with it for a moment. I'll take you home after they finish the notes."
"I'm fine." Fiona struggled in his arms and was about to take off his coat, but she was stopped by Spencer.
"I'm really not cold." Smiling, Spencer raised his hand and touched Fiona's face. "Do you think my hand is very warm? Why are you still worried about me? "
Fiona giggled, "Then I'm not worried any more. I won't worry in the future."
"No way." "Then you'd better worry about me," Spencer added
"So you have lost a lot of weight recently, haven't you?" Fiona asked in a gentle voice in Spencer's arms.
"Maybe. But there are so many things to be done on changing positions recently that I'm not in the mood to eat." He frowned and continued, "Maybe I'm going to JB Area this year."
"Has the notice arrived? "Are you going there this year?" How long will you stay there? " Fiona was surprised, "Can't you go after the new year?"
"We may come back here during the Spring Festival." Spencer smiled, "I don't know how long it will take, but I just went there. I'm afraid I can't take you there."
