Lisa held Anna Green's wrist and walked out, pulling her along with her. Anna Green was also angry. All she wanted was to help her but in return, she got scolded. How could she endure this?
She pulled her hand back and asked, "What are you doing? I can walk by myself."
Lisa looked back at her, then turned and walked away with long strides, unwilling to talk to her. She had seen and heard enough for the day and now didn't have any patience for arguing further.
Anna Green could do nothing but chase her after. Lisa didn’t stop her steps anywhere even after coming out of the hospital. Anna Green called her over and over again, almost running after her.
At last, she reached out to hold her hand and pulled her around, "What i
"No." Daniel Brooke denied instantly. He was shocked to think that Lisa would call him a murderer. He could bear her hatred but never could tolerate her looking down at him as a criminal. Frowning deeply, he exclaimed "I didn't plan to kill him. It was just an accident." Lisa knitted her brows tight and shot a doubtful gaze at him. She wanted to believe him but her trust in him had already gone by now. She loved him and trusted him the most in the past, but during these days whatever he did was all beyond her realms of understanding. She felt like she never knew him. Daniel Brooke felt a terrible pain in his heart to meet her suspicious gaze. "I didn't plan that accident but don't think that I won't do anything and sit quietly. Come back to me, I am telling you again b
Half an hour later, Lisa reached the hospital. The guard gave her an attendee's pass to go in which was managed by the nurse. He told her that she could stay only 15 minutes inside the ward and warned her, again and again, to not make any noise. Lisa thanked him many times before she went into the hospital. There was a small smile on her face. She was thrilled. Her heart was also beating faster in excitement. She hurried to his ward. There she found the nurse waiting for her. The nurse informed her that Mack Black had gone out for breakfast just now and she could stay 10 minutes. Lisa was a little unhappy. The guard told her she could stay 15 minutes but the nurse was telling her she had only 10 minutes. What game she was playing with her?
With a jerk, Carl Black opened his eyes widely and stared at the white ceiling motionlessly. His ears were buzzing and his vision was blurry. For a few minutes, he couldn't understand whether he was awake or dreaming. Everything seemed very unusual. His eyeballs were fixed at a certain point of the white ceiling and his body was also not moving at all. After a long time, the buzzing sound in his ears started fading gradually and he moved his gaze around the ward. He was not aware of where he was. He slowly turned his head and saw a person's sleeping figure on the sofa vaguely. He couldn't see his face. He blinked his eyes slowly, trying to see who the person was. But without his glasses, it was impossible for him to see clearly. He wanted to call him but his throat was so dry that his voice didn’t come out and he began to cough. Startled, Mack Black sat up on the sofa instantly. His eyes we
On the other end, Lisa came every day to the hospital during these two days but the guard who helped her was replaced by another one. She remembered him. He was pretty rude to her last time. This was the same guard who threw her out of the hospital that night and threatened her to call the cop. She requested him to give some information about Carl Black, but he didn't pay attention to her. Despondent, Lisa only could look at the hospital sullenly. Actually, the guard, who helped her, took leave and went to his hometown. Two days later he resumed his work. Lisa was delighted to see him after two days. She rushed to him and asked immediately, "Do you have any news of Mr. Black?" "Your husband had woken up two days back."
Lisa stood statically on the spot in a daze, looking at the car that exited just now through the hospital gate. Carl Black kept staring at her petite figure through the side mirror until she was in his line of sight. Closing his eyes, he leaned back to the seat. Half an hour later, they reached the villa. Lisa also arrived at the villa, five minutes after they had reached. Both the brothers and Helen Black were talking about something, sitting on the sofa in the living room. Helen Black looked at Lisa coldly once she entered the villa. She was a little unhappy with her. "Now you have time to come. What sickness did you have that you didn't show up once in the hospital?" Embarrassed, Lisa remained quiet, looking down at her toes. Carl Black was only gazing at her the moment she entered the room. Helen Black's words and her c
Lisa lowered her head as tears welled up in her eyes. She didn't want to show them her tears. It took her whole to send the tears back. Carl Black clenched his fist tightly under the table noticing Mack Black act restlessly. He felt a twinge in his heart seeing how rudely his brother was treating Lisa. He stole a glance at her and said, "Finish the food fast. It's getting cold." Lisa nodded feebly and tried to eat. But after taking two bites she couldn't eat anymore. She felt so sore in her throat while swallowing the food. She tried to stay calm and not to cry but her eyes burned as fresh tears began to accumulate in her eyes. She only poked the food with the fork. When Helen Black saw her not eating, she asked worriedly, "Why are you not eating? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"
Daniel Brooke placed his hand around her shoulder, offering a wide smile to Carl Black, "I was asking her to go for dinner with me." He then looked down at her and asked, "Am I right, sweetheart?" Lisa didn't hear anything that Daniel Brooke asked. Her only concentration was on Carl Black, who was also looking at her indifferently. Without changing the slightest bit of expression, Carl Black asked Lisa again, "Are you coming?" Lisa came to her senses and brushed off Daniel Brooke's hand from her shoulder. She was about to go to Carl Black, but Daniel Brooke held her wrist and asked with a worried tone, "Sweetheart, you promised to go with me. Have you changed your mind?" Shocked, Lisa looked back at Daniel Brooke with wide eyes and mouth agape. He lied deliberately. He had already created a misunderstanding
Few more days passed. Lisa recovered from the fever and started going to her work. During these days she hardly encountered Carl Black, despite living in the same house. Whenever they crossed their path they just looked at each other for a few moments and went back to their respective work without a word. Such a life was suffocating. Lisa wanted to clear the misunderstanding but whenever she encountered him, she couldn't invoke her courage to speak after seeing his cold dark eyes. The same was with Carl Black also. He wanted to take care of her but he didn't know whether it was his ego or the regret for mistreating her, he suppressed his desire to talk to her. They both mostly avoided each other. That day when Lisa came back from the institute she saw him packing his things. She panicked and asked in a frenzy, "Where are you going?"
