Leila was in hospital, accompanied by Max all day. Although it seemed that she was alright on the surface, he knew the pain in Leila's heart could not be healed.
When Charles came in with fruits, Leila was staring blankly at the ceiling. But Max was not in the ward. He went straight in, "Leila, are you ok?"
Leila turned to look at Charles, tears streaming down her face. "Charles, you are here. Mom had a car accident. I will never have a mother again. I lost my only family. Do you know that?"
It had only been a long time since they last met. Leila was now on the verge of a breakdown. She was not as strong as she used to be.
"I know, Leila. Don't be like this!" He didn't know how to comfort her, as he could feel the grief of losing his parents.
He couldn't help but sat down next to Leila and held her in his arms. Leila cried silently at the beginning, but then she gradually sobbed in a low voice, and finally burst into tears, just like a child.
When hearing her cry, Max was very sad. Max walked a few steps forward and found that Leila was in Charles's arms at the moment. "Leila, what's wrong? Why are you crying again?"
Charles glared at him and said, "Leila is sad. Why can't she cry?"
"Charles, what do you mean? I just don't want to see Leila sad!"
"Then how about losing your parents?"
"Let's talk!" said Max, staring at Charles with a dark face
Charles patted on her shoulder, "Leila, I'll go out for a while. Have a good rest."
Charles followed Max and went out. Before Max could speak, Charles punched Max with his fist. Max glared at him with red eyes and said, "Charles, don't mess around!"
"Mess around? Max, when I gave Leila to you, if I knew it would end like this, I would definitely not give her to you! "
"Humph, if I remember correctly, I'm the one that Leila loves. It's not that easy for you to take her away," said Max, with a playful smile on his face
Charles punched again in anger. "No matter what happened, the one who is sad now is Leila."
Max didn't want to talked with him too much because Max was worried about Leila. Max didn't expect that Charles wouldn't let him go. He grabbed Max's collar and wouldn't let Max leave. Max angrily pushed him away, "enough! I don't have time to talk about this now. Get out of my way!"
Hearing the noise, Leila saw the tension between Max and Charles. She went to them weakly, "you..."
Her sight fell on Charles's fists. Even if he grasped only the collar of Max's military uniform, Charles's hands were also clenched into fists.
Charles immediately let go of Max. "Leila, we..."
"Why do you get up with so weak? Go back and have a rest?" said Max, striding towards Leila and holding her Max scooped her up into his arms and placed her on the bed. But Leila quickly took hold of his hand and said, "don't fight, please."
"OK, have a good rest!" said Max, kissing her on the forehead
Charles opened his mouth slowly, "as for Johnson..."
Max was silent. "I've just pried him. Next is to find evidence!"
The ward then fell into deathly silence. The two men were silent and inhaled deeply on the cigarette. After that, Max stood up, opened the window and dispelled the smoke.
Rosa heard that Leila also lived in a ward of this hospital, so it had been a long time since she met Max. When she got the location of Leila's ward, she sneaked into it, just to try her luck. It would be better if she could see Max.
After Charles finished one cigarette, he left.
The door of the ward was ajar. As soon as Rosa saw the man sitting by Leila's bed, her eyes welled up with tears of grievance. When she had committed suicide and been sent to the hospital, Max hadn't come to visit her yet, but now he stayed by Leila's bed. She was jealous, angry, and her eyes were burning with fury.
"That's great, Max. You are here!"
The familiar voice astonished Max. Max turned around and looked at the person behind him. "Why are you here?"
She was still wearing the patient clothes, and when she was questioned by him just now, Rosa looked a little restless. His tone made her fearful and strange. "Max, you..."
Max stood up and glanced at Leila who was asleep, seeming to be fine.
"Let me send you back."
Rosa nodded. She always thought she still had a chance as long as he was willing to talk to her. Looking at the man walking in front of her, she couldn't help but hold his hand.
Max wanted to push Rosa away, but he was held more tightly by Rosa. Seeing that they were almost to the ward, he did not care. Although Grady was sad to see this scene, as long as Rosa was happy, he had no complaints.
"Well, have a good rest. I'm going back!"
He turned around and was hugged by Rosa from behind. "Don't go, Max. I miss you so much!"
Max patted her hand. In his impression, Rosa was not an unreasonable person.
