Chapter 13 Incurable Wound
Celia hesitated for a while and then reached out to grasp the doorknob. She turned it slightly, held her breath and opened the door. The next moment, she felt relief because the man really didn't come back last night.
He left in such a hurry. She didn't know who invited him, or did something really happen?
When she closed the door again, she suddenly felt much more relaxed. She hoped that he could busy for some time, so that she didn't have to please him.
In a senior ward of the First People's Hospital of H City, Hans came out of the bathroom with a slight weariness on his face. He looked at his mother, who was leaning against the bed and eating porridge, said with a smile "Mom, have a good rest after eating porridge. I'll go back to work first and come to see you afternoon."
Olivia Yang, the intensive-care nurse, looked at Fanny Pei with a gentle smile, but the latter was a little confused. She looked at his face ignorantly, paused for a moment, and then nodded slowly "Okay!" With a gentle smile on his face, he bent down and kissed her forehead. Then he said to Olivia "Aunt Olivia, call me if anything happens. Besides, I'll find someone to serve my mother with you latter." "Mr. Hans, do you think I'm not doing a good job?"
The smile on Olivia's face froze, and there was a little nervousness and uneasiness in her voice. Last night, Fanny had a stomachache, and she didn't know how to express it, but was just shouted in irritability. Seeing her frown and painful expression, she asked for a long time before Fanny pointed at her belly and said painfully "it hurts, it hurts here. It is about to give birth to a baby!"
She immediately called Hans. Fanny had been sent to the hospital by the people from the sanatorium. The doctors didn't dare to neglect since they knew what kind of person he was. Fortunately, Fanny was sent in time. According to the doctor's diagnosis, she was suffering from acute appendicitis. When he arrived at the hospital, he signed the written consent for surgery immediately.
Because of the matter, Celia didn't have to please him. Last night, when Olivia called him, he had just taken a shower and called her into his room, waiting for Jim to take the medicine back, but when he heard the sound of the car outside, the phone beside him rang.
At first, Celia looked at him nervously, but he only said on the phone, "I'll be right there!"
After hanging up the phone, he quickly went back to the cloakroom. A moment later, he changed his clothes and came out. When he passed by her, he gave her a cold glance and went downstairs. Then he left with a sound of car leaving downstairs.
"No, Aunt Olivia, you don't have to work so hard in the future. You can order the people I find as you like, and let her do all the things. Your salary is still the same as before."
Olivia was puzzled by his gentle tone. After a short pause, he added "I'll have someone bring her here later."
Then he left the ward.
When Celia walked out of the living room, she saw Jim was changing the water for the fish pool with his back to her. She slowly walked over. Perhaps it was because she walked lightly, or perhaps Jim was too focused that he didn't notice her approaching. He didn't turn around until he heard her clear voice behind him. He seemed to be shocked by her.
In fact, she just simply called out "Jim!"
Looking at Celia who was standing behind him, Jim grinned unnaturally and greeted her "Miss Celia, you get up so early!"
Celia was a little confused. She felt that there was something strange in his eyes, but she couldn't tell what it was. It seemed to be a trace of worry in his eyes or something that he couldn't bear. She frowned slightly but said with a smile "I'm used to getting up early. Are you changing the water for the pool? What can I do for you?"
"No. Thank you!"
Jim shook his head subconsciously and said "It's my job. You don't need to do it, Miss Celia."
As he spoke, he didn't forget to pay attention to the changing pool. Celia didn't force him. She looked at the fish swimming happily in the pool, thought for a while, and asked "Can I go out today? Can you call Hans and ask him about it? I want to go to the hospital to visit my father again and I would like to know about his health situation!"
The man left in a hurry last night and didn't come back this morning. She thought it was better to tell him because of the contract.
A tinge of embarrassment flashed across Jim's face, and his smile faded slightly. After hesitating for a few seconds, he explained "Miss Celia, Mr. Hans's mother suddenly fell ill into the hospital last night. He stayed there for the whole night and he may be in a bad mood today and may not agree to your request."
Last night, he stayed in the hospital with Hans, so he knew that Hans had almost stayed up all night. They went to the company directly this morning and Hans asked him to come back to accompany Celia, but he didn't say that she could leave the villa for free. Thinking of what happened last night, perhaps, Hans wouldn't use medicine to her if she wouldn't disturb him when he was in a bad mood.
Seeing that he was in a dilemma, Celia didn't force him anymore. She pursed her lips and said "Forget it. I won't go out."
After saying that, she turned around and left. Jim didn't say anything more. He just stared at her slender back for two seconds before he lowered his head, and then continued to stare at the fish pool. It turned out that his mother was ill and was sent to the hospital. No wonder he left in such a hurry
She went back to her room while thinking about it. She really didn't dare to challenge his anger, remembering the disgust in his eyes when he looked at her. She was as far away from him as possible. It didn't matter if she didn't go to see her father, she can call to greet him.
It's just that when she thought of Ryan and Joe, she couldn't help feeling sad, especially when she met Ryan's painful eyes.
If she said that she didn't understand his intentions towards her because he hadn't shown it. But yesterday, she saw clearly that his eyes were full of pain and heartbreaking tenderness. Even if he didn't say it out, she could understand.
But, it was too late!
She couldn't get his family involved, and the warning of Hans was still in her ears.
"Tom, is Hans looking for me? Where is he?"
Nancy looked around with her charming eyes, hoping to see the man she missed day and night.
A hint of contempt flashed through [0]'s eyes. Seeing the anthomaniac look on [D]'s face, he said coldly, "Mr. Bruce is very busy. He doesn't have time to see you. He asked me to wait for you here." "Okay!"
Hearing that she couldn't see him, she was disappointed, but only for a moment, a charming smile appeared on her face again.
