When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden) novel Chapter 557

Chapter 557 These Two Were True Love!

Shirley took the bus back to her small cabin at the foot of the mountain.

Neighbour Jones rushed out anxiously, his expression filled with worry, “Shirley, you’re finally back. Come and see Antwan. Something has happened to him!”

“What?!”

Shirley furrowed her brows, quickly got off the bus, and hurriedly ran towards the small cabin.

Because of her fast pace, she tripped halfway and scraped her knee, causing the fruits and vegetables she bought to scatter on the ground.

“I just turned around to pour a glass of juice, and Antwan somehow climbed up the cherry tree and fell, losing consciousness!”

Jones ran alongside Shirley, explaining the situation.

In the yard of the small cabin, apart from the radiant sunflowers, there was a tall cherry tree. Now was the time when the cherries were ripe, juicy, and as big as thumbs.

Shirley had been longing for that cherry tree for a long time, but it was too tall and not easy to pick. She had planned to borrow a ladder from Jones one day and have a good feast, but unexpectedly… Antwan beat her to it, taking the initiative.

“Antwan!”

Shirley spotted Antwan lying beneath the cherry tree from a distance. He still tightly held a few large red cherries in his hand.

“I’m not sure if he has any bone injuries, so I didn’t dare move him. Shirley, don’t worry too much. I’ve already called for an ambulance.”

Jones patted Shirley’s shoulder and comforted her in a low voice.

This pair of men and women had attracted the attention of the town since they moved here half a year ago.

Living as a fragile woman taking care of a blind and disabled man, one could imagine how difficult it must have been. Therefore, everyone was willing to help them.

“Antwan…”

Shirley, with red eyes, held the man’s hand and blamed herself, “It’s all my fault. I should have taken you to the market together. I was too negligent.”

The ambulance arrived quickly, and after providing basic wound care for Antwan, they placed him on a stretcher and headed to the hospital in town. Shirley naturally went with him.

After some running around, the doctor diagnosed Antwan with a back injury, requiring bed rest for half a month. Due to long-term anemia, his body was weak, which led to the loss of consciousness.

Shirley looked at the thick stack of examination papers, slumped down on the ground, consumed by guilt.

She thought, “Who would have known that the cost of Braden’s recovery would be so great, equivalent to sacrificing Antwan’s entire life? If I had known about these severe consequences, I would never have agreed to the surgery!”

At that moment, a commotion arose in the hallway.

“Doctor, please save my fiancee!”

Shirley found the voice familiar and turned around. It was indeed Braden, carrying a bloodied Alina in his arms.

Her heart tightened. What happened? Weren’t they just fine, leisurely enjoying their coffee in the cafe? How did things suddenly become so tragic?!

“Make way! Make way!’

The medical staff was also in a hurry, shouting as they rushed Alina into the emergency room.

They disappeared from Shirley’s sight just like they had never appeared before.

This was too coincidental…

It took Shirley a while to come to her senses, and she couldn’t help but wonder if it was just an illusion.

But she didn’t delve too deep into it and went to the nearby store to buy hospital supplies for Antwan.

Two sets of clothes, tableware, cups, a small cake, and a bouquet of flowers.

After receiving the nutrient infusion, Antwan had already regained consciousness. He was anxious and shouting to leave.

However, his entire body was restrained and he could only lie flat on the hospital bed.

“Where am I? Who are you? Let me out, let me out!”

Antwan despairingly pounded on the edge of the bed, his voice hoarse and veins bulging on his forehead.
