Hester stayed at the window sill, her eyes looking vacantly at the scenery. The mixture of feelings wafted. She bent down with her arms around her knees.
"What should I do now?"
As long as she was with Jackson, she felt very uncomfortable. How could she live under the same roof if she went on like this?
She stood in front of the mirror with dark circles around her eyes. After a whole night's deep consideration, she felt that she had to do something!
She must make it quick and extremely efficient.
She rushed into the room and got her phone out. Then she dialed Austin's number and waited anxiously for the answer.
"Hello!"
Hester's originally restless heart gradually calmed down as hearing his calm voice. He took a deep breath and smiled. She said she didn't want to bother Austin and now she was going to break her promise.
"Hi, Brother Austin, it's me!"
"I know!" Giving the medical record to the nurse, Austin nodded and walked to the stairwell with gentle expression. How could he not know the ringtone specially set for her?
"Why do you get up so early?"
Hester was moved, eager to see Austin more. He was like a harbor, open to Hester. If it had not been the last resort, she would not have bothered him.
Since they knew each other, his responsibility was to help her clean up the mess. She was not embarrassed about it at all. Instead, she took it for granted!
"I... Brother Austin, please take me out of here!"
Austin's heart beat so fast that his body could hardly bear it. He stumbled and leaned hard against the wall to steady himself.
"Wow!" He took a deep breath and swallowed all the groans in his mouth. His eyes were flickering with a faint light, but it was unusually shiny in the dark stairs.
"Brother Austin, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
Hester asked anxiously, with her eyebrows furrowed. 'Brother Austin is a steady man. How could he be like this suddenly? Is there something wrong?' thought she.
Austin c
was afraid of him and took a step back unconsciously. He was standing right in front of him, but she felt that he was so far away.
It was like the unfathomable evil spirit in the legendary stories, often appearing and disappearing.
"What's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong?"
He repeated her words with a smirk. Jackson walked in leisurely with his hands in his pockets. He stopped half a meter away from her, his dark eyes shining with unspeakable light.
He stroked her forehead with his cold fingers and his fingers moved down to her cheeks. Hester was stunned by his actions. For a moment, she was willing to be fiddled with him.
"You want to leave?"
It sounded like he was asking but more like whispering to himself.
Hester's heart skipped a beat at his reaction. Looking at Jackson right in front of her, she felt uneasy. She had never seen him like this. His dangerous demonic expression made people tremble with fear.
Hester raised her hand to flick her short hair, in an attempt to ease the embarrassment.
"I've been here for so long. I feel very sorry for what I've done, and that's why I want to leave!"
"Really?"
Said Jackson with a teasing smile, whose eyes were tightened at Hester. He moved closer to her ear, and his hot breath sprayed on her neck.
"Am I that easily fooled?"
