“Harmonia.”Micah felt somewhat surprised when he heard this. Who would have thought that Absalom was such a romantic?That night, Micah approached Hector and brought up the reconstruction of the beast colosseum and asked him for the design blueprints under the pretext of paying him a visit. Hector naturally couldn't produce the blueprints since he had already given them to Harmonia.Micah immediately flew into a rage, accused him of being a traitor, and locked him up. If it weren't for Absalom reminding Micah to keep Hector alive because he was still of some use to them, Micah, in his rage, would have undoubtedly killed him.Throughout the ordeal, Hector remained exceptionally calm. Since the moment he had handed the design blueprints to Harmonia, he knew this day would come, but what he didn't expect was for it to come so quickly. Given Micah's arrogant and self-assured character, after suffering such a big loss this time, he would definitely not let it go easily. Learning that
As the words fell, he raised his hand and pressed down hard on Hector’s wound!The wound had just been sutured, and the moment it was pressed hard, it tore apart with force.Hector endured the pain, not making a sound. He gritted his teeth, sweat beading on his forehead. He glared coldly at Absalom in front of him, and their eyes locked in a tense standoff. It was a crazy confrontation!Blood oozed out. Absalom watched the blood drip down and chuckled.The unhealed wound was forcefully pressed, causing intense pain as if his internal organs were being twisted together.“Absalom, stop dreaming! I won't let you hurt Monia again even if I have to die!”Hector gritted his teeth, each word squeezed out through clenched teeth, a convergence of blood and tears.Finally, Hector couldn't hold on any longer and passed out from the pain.Absalom grabbed a few tissues and wiped the fresh blood off his palms.He then opened the door to the ward. The doctor was already waiting at the door.
The anesthesia wore off and Hector woke up. He covered the wound on his abdomen, enduring the intense stench, and crawled out of the pile of dead bodies. There were few people around the mass graves.Hector followed the mountain path, stopping from time to time. He kept going until dawn, using the last bit of his strength to stumble into the shrubbery and pass out completely.After some time, a clear voice sounded. “Hey… Hey, little guy? Wake up!”After a series of calls, Hector gradually regained consciousness. When he saw the unfamiliar girl, he was cautious and quickly pushed her hand away. Penny was a little angry and spoke frankly, “Why are you so fierce? If I hadn't gone into the mountains for a sketching trip and found you, you would have died here for sure! I've been calling you for half a day and my throat is already sore! I'm not asking you to repay the favor, but do you have to be so rude?”Hector looked at the girl holding a paintbrush toolbox and gradually came to
“Paper, pen.”Penny read it several times, only to finally understand what Hector was trying to say. Lip-reading communication was still very difficult.She immediately handed her sketchbook to Hector.Hector wrote on the sketchbook, ‘Where is this place?’Penny felt pleasantly surprised. She hadn't expected this little guy's handwriting to be so nice! It was a million times better than her messy handwriting.“This is my nanny’s home, but she passed away half a year ago. Her daughter died shortly after birth. Her worthless husband ran away long ago, so this place has been empty.” As she spoke, Penny's eyes reddened.Hector nodded without asking any further questions. He then wrote another sentence: ‘Thank you. I'm sorry to bring up your sad matter.’Penny felt that this little guy was quite good at comforting people. His fierce appearance just now should have been his defense mechanism!It was just like the little stray dog she had found in the mountains before. It was fierce a
He took out a blood-stained sterile cloth from the wound. The doctor was shocked, never expecting to find a small piece of cloth inside the well-sewn wound.This changed his mind, realizing that the one with a bad brain was actually himself.Hector wrote again: ‘Sorry to trouble you.’The doctor nodded, administered local anesthesia, and then sewed up his wound.‘Thank you, your stitching skills are superb.’The doctor wiped his hands, indicating that there was no need for thanks.The door opened, and a strong smell of blood rushed out.“Hector, is your wound stitched up?” Penny asked.Hector nodded.The doctor then prescribed him some medicine and wrote down the instructions.Penny felt this doctor was reliable, so she took out a thick wad of cash from her shoulder bag and stuffed it into his hand.The doctor was shocked. “Miss, this is too much money.”“Is this money a lot? It doesn't seem like much to me. It's only thirty thousand here.”The doctor was astonished. ‘Isn’
Harmonia had a long dream where her brother suffered torment and destruction, and right at the moment when the knife was about to pierce his heart, a deafening roar pulled her back from the dream to reality, waking her up!Luckily, the knife didn't pierce her brother's heart, and he was still alive. Even though it was just a dream, she didn't want to see her brother die before her eyes!Suddenly, she felt somewhat relieved and was grateful that the loud noise had come just in time.She looked at Penny who was in front of her and sensed her anger.“It's almost afternoon, so why are you still sleeping?”Penny had returned to town and learned about Linelle’s emergency hospitalization. She was furious and went to confront Harmonia again.Unexpectedly, she saw Harmonia sleeping soundly on the hospital bed.“You're not sick or injured, yet you're sleeping on Mr. Martinez's bed? Aren't you just getting in the way of someone who’s in need of the hospital bed?”Harmonia's long and curle
“If I had any shame, how could I have climbed into Mr. Dimas’ bed?”Penny was instantly speechless. In all her years, she had never encountered someone like this, it was truly eye-opening!“You… You're unbelievable! You’re shameless! I really don't understand what Mr. Dimas sees in you!” Harmonia squinted her beautiful eyes and laughed again. “Then why don't you ask him?”When Penny heard Harmonia's words, she was stunned for a few seconds, then quickly turned around.Dimas's imposing aura began to emanate. His cold and rigid features showed no emotion.“Mac… Mr. Dimas…” Penny called out awkwardly.When Mac saw that the situation was getting out of hand, he pulled Penny over, trying to defuse the situation. “You're here to see the patient, so why didn't you bring anything? Is it proper for you to come to the hospital empty-handed? If word gets out, they'll say the Shaw family members lack manners. They will say that I didn’t teach you well!”Mac was clearly trying to help Penn
After that, he maneuvered the wheelchair and entered the ward. Mac took advantage of this moment and quickly smiled, saying, “Mr. Dimas, let's discuss this later. I'll first take this ignorant brat back home! I'll apologize to Miss Mandel. My sister is just too reckless! It's mainly because Linelle is the daughter of her lifesaver and also grew up with her as a good friend. Therefore, my sister gets especially emotional about her affairs.”“Miss Mandel, I hope you can be more tolerant and not bother with someone who's a little dumb.”Penny snapped, “Who’s dumb?!”Harmonia shook her head gently. Instead of getting angry, she smiled and waved at Penny.“Come play again next time.”Penny felt irritated and was about to say something, but Mac covered her mouth immediately and dragged her away.Penny was a person of loyalty and righteousness. She always spoke her mind directly and straightforwardly, never being ambiguous or tricky. However, it was precisely because of her straightfo
