Hester furrowed her eyebrows and squatted in the corner, not knowing how to respond. She couldn't lie to Brother Austin.
She clenched her fists and wanted to hang up the phone. The phone was burning like a hot potato.
"Terence had a car accident."
With his eyes darkened, Austin stood there, his back taut. His face was gloomy and terrible, as if a layer of dark cloud was gathered, and the next moment a storm was coming.
Blue veins stood out on his forehead, and his face instantly turned red. His chest heaved violently, like an angry lion, dangerous and terrible.
"Hester, you don't want to leave him, do you?"
Hester was panicked at Austin's extraordinary calm tone. It would make her feel better if Austin could yelling at her.
However, as time went by, his gentle tone did not change at all. The gentle blow passed through layers of barriers and directly hit her heart.
"No, I... I... "
Her mind went blank. She wanted to deny, but she couldn't find any excuse. She felt depressed.
Looking at the patients taking a walk in the backyard, Austin sneered. He tightened his grip. There were some scars on his fingers.
It was the time when he was forced to go abroad, in order to stay in front of her in the best situation as soon as possible, the scars had left. She was the source of his motivation. All he wanted was to stand by her side and give her a little warmth.
But when did this simple wish begin to change? When he saw the gentle smile on her face, he felt a little unfair.
"Hester, aren't you anxious to get rid of him? Now he had a car accident. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Abroad is the gathering place of my family's power. As long as we can safely land, no matter how capable he is, he will never find you.
I will find the best doctor for you to recuperate your body and successfully give birth to the baby. Isn't this what you want?
Are you going to give up this opportunity for the sake of Terence? Or you don'
In the end, he could not be so determined to deal with her.
"That's all for today. I'm tired now."
Sheryl was surprised but didn't refute. She wondered, 'Mr. Terence, a renowned workaholic, would take the initiative to have a rest? '
"Yes, sir!"
Hester's eyebrows rose at his words. She threw the book in her hand casually, poured a bowl of chicken soup and put it in his hand. Then she lowered her head and seriously gathered the papers scattered on the hospital bed.
"Miss Sheryl, thank you so much for coming here every day."
Taking the document from Hester with respect, Sheryl felt a little guilty. The other day when Melody made a decision to make a caesarean operation on Hester, she hadn't been able to stop her. Because of that, she always felt embarrassed in front of Hester.
"Miss Hester, it's my pleasure."
After sending Sheryl away, Hester turned back to the sofa and continued to read the novel. She couldn't think of anything else to distract her attention.
Every time she saw Terence, she could not help but want to tell him about Melody, but she refrained from doing so. In order to help herself get rid of that incident, she thought of reading.
Although it was a little embarrassing to stay silent in the ward, it was better than having a quarrel.
"Hester, the book was reversed."
