Serena wanted to tell him the truth, but just when the words were on the tip of her tongue, Cristian suddenly stood up and said, -You just woke up, your mouth is probably dry.
After saying this, he got up and went to get water, leaving Serena staring at his frozen back. She felt that Cristian was purposely trying to avoid something.
However, she quickly convinced herself that she was wrong.
Serena lowered her gaze and rippled her already pale lips, thinking, "If Cristian is really avoiding, does that mean he has already been informed? In the hospital, nothing can be hidden. One word from the doctor and everything he had hidden for so long would be exposed to the light of day."
Soon after, Cristian brought her some water to drink.
Serena drank it in silence, feeling very apprehensive, not knowing what to say. At that moment, there was a knock at the bedroom door, and Beatrice entered, bringing a basket of fruit to visit her. Beatrice placed it on the table and greeted her tenderly, "Serena, how are you now?
Serena replied, "Aunt Beatrice, don't worry, I'm fine.
Cristian also greeted Beatrice, then stood up and gave her space to sit on the edge of the bed.
After taking her seat, Beatrice looked at Cristian. It did not take her a second to grasp the meaning of that look: they both wanted a private space to have a girl talk, and he took the excuse of going outside to make a phone call. Then he pulled out his phone and left the room.
Beatrice did not enter the topic until she was sure Cristian had left.
Seeing Beatrice peeking out the door and then back to her, Serena set aside the cup in her hand and asked anxiously, -Does he know yet?
-That's the same question I wanted to ask you,‖ Beatrice replied.
This answer made Serena stunned, because she did not expect Beatrice to be confused as well.
Suddenly, Beatrice asked her again, "What are you going to do?
If you are going to test him, then you must be ready to explain everything, clearly, and accept all possible consequences. Have you decided?
Serena lowered her gaze, stammering, "I... I never thought this would happen, it was all so unexpected....
Beatrice said, "So, you haven't decided yet, have you?
Actually, the situation is not that complicated.
There are only two possibilities left.
The first is: you already know but you are pretending.
The second is: you still have no idea.
If the first comes true, you know Cristian well and would be able to guess what action he would take next. If he still doesn't know, you can choose to continue to keep it from him.
