Welcome To My Life novel Chapter 29

Eduard helped Isobel transfer to a VIP ward, so there was only Isobel in the ward.

After the nurse left, he stood by her bed for a while. He wanted to say something, but when his gaze fell on her face, he finally said, "Don't think so much. You shall take a good rest."

After talking, he wanted to go downstairs to smoke. But Isobel suddenly called him, "Eduard."

Her voice was very soft, probably she had exhausted all her energy because of what happened to her tonight.

"Are you hungry?"

Isobel looked at him, and her face was pale under the light. She said, "Don’t be silly like me."

She took a deep breath and then continued, "If you love someone like a moth flying to the fire, no one will be moved except yourself."

He held the guardrail of the bed. When he heard what she said, the tail finger of his right hand trembled.

He lowered his head and hid his sadness under the light and shadow. And then he said, "Don’t worry. I am smarter than you."

Isobel smiled gently and said, "That’s good. You won’t be hurt if you are smart enough."

She turned her head and didn’t look at him anymore while talking, "Go back home. Please leave me alone tonight."

Eduard looked at her for a while and then said, "OK. You can call me if you need."

"Thank you."

"You’re welcome."

He smiled and then closed the door of the ward and left.

It was over 10:00 at night, and there were few people in the hospital. Eduard stood downstairs in the Inpatient Department, lowered his head and then lit a cigarette.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and then couldn’t help but smile when he thought of what Isobel said just now.

A moth flying to the fire? He didn’t think he was so great. He was just more persistent in what he wanted to do.

As soon as Martha arrived at the hospital, she saw that Hamish walked out of the hospital. She opened the door and then got out of the car. She walked up to him and said, "How is she?"

He looked up at her and took the cigarette from his mouth with his hand. He looked so indifferent without any expressions on his face. And then he said, "Did you forget what I told you before?"

Martha had came here to condemn his guilt, but when she saw his expression, she only felt scared in her mind and took a step back. She said, "I didn’t do anything."

Hamish sneered slightly and flicked the ashes on the cigarette with his index finger. And then he said, "You are really funny. Why don’t you dare to recognize it since you did it? I don’t think you can be compared with Isobel."

Martha had fought against Isobel almost four years. So it made her feel angry when he said that. She said, "So what do you want to do?"

"I just want to take some time and break the engagement with you."

"Why?"

She looked at him and felt that it was unbelievable. She asked, "Hamish, what are you talking about? Do you think I am as cheap as Isobel? Why can you break the engagement with me?"

"Cheap?"

After hearing what she said, Hamish frowned and then walked up to her directly.

Martha was a bit scared and then stepped back. She said, "What are you going to do? Hamish, you can’t hurt me. What happened tonight was ridiculous enough. Do you... Ahh!"

Hamish pressed the cigarette butt on her arm without expression on his face. He said, "If you don’t know how to watch your language next time, I don’t mind teaching you how to talk again."
