Uncontrollable Fondness novel Chapter 50

Was he crazy? To think that he was doing this to a sickly woman! He grabbed his hair firmly and took a deep drag on the cigarette. The smoke filled his lungs and he started to cough vigorously until it was cold below his eyes.

He touched and it was a tear.

“We may have to send her to the hospital.” The doctor said carefully while looking at him.

His stare shot over like a lightning and his voice thundered through the room, “Then what are you waiting for!”

Was she escaping through death? Mia didn’t think that she would survive this. She thought that she was definitely going to die.

It was difficult for her to escape having encountered a demon such as William.

The nurse walked over and behind her was Tia Pearson who had been taking care of her for the last few days. Tia brought a thermos container and placed it onto the table and smiled at her.

“Quickly eat some and recuperate your strength. Later you will be treated with curettage, it will hurt.” The nurse reminded.

After resting for these few days, she has recovered somewhat. Tia laid out the dishes and was filled with relief, “Miss Charles, you look much better today. I feel so relieved. In the last few days, I was so worried when you were unconscious. The doctor described your condition as very serious. Thank goodness that you are alright. I’ll tell boss afterward, he will definitely…” Before she could finish, she saw Mia’s face change, and Tia quickly stopped.

Now when William’s name was mentioned, Mia didn’t hate him anymore. To forget someone, the best way is to absolutely forget. Do not even hate, just forget.

Just treat it as a very long nightmare. Once you wake up, everything will be over. She wanted to quickly recover and return to a normal life.

She lifted her head and asked the nurse, “Excuse me, is there any other treatment after curettage?”

The nurse shook her head and changed her bottle of the IV drip and said, “No need. Your body has recovered well. Once curettage is done you can go home and recuperate.”

She nodded and took over the chopsticks brought by Tia and forced herself to eat some more.

She followed the nurse along the long corridor and towards the operating room. She looked back and saw James. He was standing next to the nurses' station joking with some nurses. He was handsome and uninhibited except for some bruise at the corner of his eye. Was he injured by William the other day?

Hasn’t he recovered after so many days? She slowed down her steps due to her concern for James.

A beautiful red image blocked her view and she softly said, “James, you’re here to flirt with the nurses again!”

The woman turned and it was that elegant face of Sophia. Her face was pinkish and clearly well on her way to a healthy recovery. Her curly hair was over her shoulders and flowed flawlessly as she moved.

She was extremely perturbed when Sophia appeared and she quickened her footsteps. But she could still hear her voice, “Hey, your face is injured? William also has an injury on his face. Did you two fight?”

“How could it be!” James’ voice was very gentle and entirely different from when he was joking with the nurses. He was even slightly doting towards her.

In their few interactions, other than Mia’s respect towards James, she started to have an affection for him. But based on her instincts as a woman, she suddenly felt that James liked Sophia.

This feeling wasn’t good.

As she walked into the operating room, although she was given an anesthetic, when the cold apparatus entered her body, it was so painful that she broke out in cold sweat. She clenched her teeth as she told herself, “Don’t hate, don’t hate, don’t hate!”

She just wanted to forget!

Drenched in a cold sweat, she got off the operating table and was so weak that she almost collapsed. She refused the help of the nurse and leaned on the wall as she walked out and sat on a chair.

“You may leave after completing 3 bottles of IV drip.” The nurse left after saying.

Mia braced herself to endure the pain and slowly stood up. She walked along the corridor but didn’t go back to the patient's room. Since she was feeling better, she should leave.

She didn’t tell anyone and walked directly out of the hospital. She was still very weak and was out of breath just walking that distance. She looked at the cars going by and eventually gave up the thought of looking for Brooke.

As long as the threat of William lingers, she can’t risk troubling her best friend. She continued aimlessly for a moment and then hailed a taxi.

At the top floor of the Elements group and in the Director’s office, William sat on the comfortable executive chair. He twirled a pen in his hand and was emotionless. Perhaps more accurately, his expression was buried in his heart.

Mia has left. Tia called to report that.

The handsome face had a bruised split lip. This was the injury after fighting with James. He had fought numerous times with James but this was the only time he was so forceful.

His mouth twitched due to the pain but more due to his frustrations. James’s warning continued to ring in his ears, “You already have Sophia so don’t drag on with Mia. Last time I can understand your actions because Sophia was sick and cannot satisfy you. But now she has already recovered so you must be true to her…”
