In the quiet hospital corridor, Blake leaned against the window and smoked non-stop, while General Anderson walked out of Audrey's room with an ugly expression on his face."Are you satisfied now? I've already warned you that you can't be quick when you want to, but you just want to be on your own." Butch reprimanded him in a few sentences. Seeing Blake keep silent, he did not say anything else."What are you going to do now?" Butch asked again.Blake exhaled the smoke, his face hidden behind the smoke, his emotions were unclear, and only his quiet reply could be heard, "Other than waiting, what else can we do, the most important thing right now is to let Angie regain her sight.""Yes." General Anderson nodded in agreement, but continued, "I have already informed all major hospitals. As long as donors appear, they will immediately contact us. But, Blake, you must be prepared. Angie's condition can only last for a few months at most, and the odds of waiting for the cornea are low. If s
Avery dragged her exhausted body out of bed. There was only one piece of cold medicine left on the bedside table, she quickly swallowed it and then went downstairs.In the living room on the first floor, Jake was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper. "Your face doesn't look too good.""I didn't sleep well because I had a cold. But I'm fine," Avery replied casually.Jake put down the newspaper in his hands, and said worriedly, "The viral cold seems to be quite severe recently, pay more attention to your body. If you're not feeling well, take a few days off."After Jake went back to normal, he went through the process of early retirement. With the treatment of a deputy division, his pension was pretty good, so the father and daughter did not have to worry about his livelihood."It's just a cold, don't make a fuss. Dad didn't you say before that when you do your work, you have to be serious and serious? It's not advisable to catch fish in the sun for three days," Avery replied with a
Blake remained silent, and then, he actually turned around and left. The instant the door closed, Angie's wailing sounds came from inside the room.Just as he walked out of the sick room, Audrey and Butch came over to welcome him. Audrey's face was haggard, but she continued to beg, "Blake, Angie is a patient and she's blind now, so she's in a bad mood. You better not take her to heart. Auntie knows your difficulties. You have a family. But I beg of you, please don't leave her at this time. She won't be able to live without you."Audrey lowered her head and did not say anything else. "Moreover, it is understandable that a blind person would lose control of her emotions.”“Don't worry, Auntie. I won't leave Angie alone.”He stood on the porch, lit a cigarette, smoked a few breaths, and then the phone rang."About the company?" General Anderson asked."Yes." Blake nodded."Just do your job. Angie isn't something you can handle just by standing guard." He knew Blake's personality the bes
In the end, the ringtone completely disappeared. Avery picked up her phone. Fifteen missed calls, must have consumed all of his patience. Patience and waiting were words that did not suit him.Just as Avery was about to put down her phone, a short text message notification sound came out. She clicked off the screen saver, her pale fingertips hesitating for a moment, then clicked on the text message.“Avery, are you awake yet? When I wasn't around, did you take your medicine? Did you sleep well and take care of yourself? I ordered breakfast for takeout. It's crab porridge from Tong Ji Congee Shop that you like. Don't forget to eat it while it's hot. I'll be back with you tonight. Darling, I love you.”Avery held the phone tightly in her hand, her shoulders shaking non-stop, and she could no longer hold back her sobs. The tears that rolled down her pale face, carried the scorching heat of her heart.Avery felt that his heart had begun to collapse and collapse at a certain corner.You kn
Audrey hesitated for a long time but still went to look for a doctor, asking her if she could donate her cornea to Angie, but the doctor rejected her suggestion. Legally speaking, donating her cornea was not allowed, moreover, it was against medical ethics.Just as she was about to leave, another person entered the sick room."Angie." The woman's voice trembled as she called out in a low voice.Angie immediately sat up and asked in a stern voice, "Why did you come here? What if we get caught by Audrey?”"Don't worry. She's in the doctor's office asking about the donor cornea." The woman sat down on the edge of the bed.Angie was slightly startled, she never thought that Audrey would really be willing to donate her cornea to her. She felt warmth in her heart, but even more so, she felt joy, "Then will I be able to recover soon?"The woman sighed and shook her head, "It's not that simple. The law forbids a living body from taking out its cornea. The doctor will not agree."The hope that
The next day, Blake woke up early and left. In the morning, when he was on, the more than 30 missed calls were all from the hospitals, and he was worried that something might happen to Angie.He did not disturb Avery and before he left, he only kissed her lightly on the forehead.Only, he didn't know that Avery hadn't slept for the entire night. The pain in her chest was so severe that even breathing had become difficult. She propped herself up and walked to the window, cutting a gap in the curtain. Blake's dark green Land Rover slowly drove away, finally disappearing from her sight.The corner of her lips unconsciously raised into a wry smile. In the end, he still couldn't let go of Angie.She squatted on the floor in pain, clutching her chest with both hands. Tears gradually blurred her eyes, and then, large tears fell onto the gilded floor, causing her to faint.Avery took a lot of painkillers before she had the strength to get up. She didn't even eat breakfast, and directly went t
Avery supported herself by leaning on the window as she looked out blankly at the scenery that was retreating away from him. With a bitter smile, she said, "If possible, I will hide it for the rest of my life."When she was really about to die, she would prepare a certificate in advance. She would make everyone think that she was still alive. It was just that she was living abroad and was living a good life. Even if she could live in their hearts, she was still living a good life.When she was walking past the department store, Avery suddenly told Dina to stop the car."Dina, accompany me to the mall. It's been a long time since I've last seen a mall.""We'll talk about it another day. Avery, what you need now is a good rest." Dina rejected her flatly.Avery's expression was slightly dejected, then she said calmly, "Dina, another day, I'm afraid I won't have another chance."Her tone was extremely calm, completely without any ripples, as if she was just casually talking about today's
At the same time, at the corner of the room, Blake picked Angie up from the ground and carefully placed him on a bench beside her. She half-squatted in front of her to check if she was injured."Aren't you going to wait for me in the ward? Why did you come out?” Blake's warm and angry voice, however, did not sound reprimanding or reproach, on the contrary, contained a trace of concern.Angie let out a coquettish laugh, wrapped her arms around his neck, and pouted. "I'm afraid you won't want me anymore."Blake frowned, and tore off her arm without leaving a trace, "I said I won't leave you behind, I definitely won't. Angie, don't be so willful next time. If you can't see, it will be very dangerous to be alone.""I know. Are you angry?" Angie giggled, her soft arms wrapped around him again, her head resting on his chest. "Blake, I knew you cared about me."Blake was silent, but the look in his eyes was extremely deep and cold."Can you still walk?" After a moment of silence, Blake asked
Trevor had given more than enough face by driving the car himself. He was the quickest person, always the one who could not stay idle. Through the rearview mirror, he saw Angie's indifferent and calm face."Aiyo, Miss Lopez seems to be in good shape today. It looks like she's not sick. I was still worried when we arrived. If you go crazy in my car, I'll directly push you out of the car or send you to a mental hospital."His joke made Angie's face change, "I'm not crazy."Trevor shrugged his shoulders and laughed, thinking: When she went crazy, he was a madman."Did Blake ask you to come to me?" Angie asked again."Do you think I'm willing?" Trevor was still smiling mischievously.However, Trevor, who was in front of her, suddenly splashed a bucket of cold water. "Miss Lopez, don't be so emotional. Mr. Anderson fears you will have a sickness that will hurt his precious little face."Angie's rosy complexion immediately became pale, her fists clenched tightly. She swore that she would ta
Blake was silent for a moment. His tall and big body was utterly shrouded in darkness, "What if I say that I don't care?""Do you know what you're talking about, Blake?" Even Esme, who was pointing at his arm, was trembling slightly. “I think that girl completely bewitches you. Do you know what bloodlines are? When you get to my age, it'll be too late to regret it. ""I won't regret it." Blake's words were firm, and each word was loud and clear. He would never regret loving Avery.After speaking, he picked up his suit jacket from the sofa. It was already very late, and he still had to rush back to get Avery up and take some medicine. Aunt, Dad, I didn't come back to quarrel. I know that you all are doing this for my good, but you all have never understood what I need. I am thrilled to be together with Avery. "And this kind of happiness was enough to make up for all the shortcomings in his life."What do you know? Do you think saying sweet words when the two of them are in the prime o
The two of them dined in a Western restaurant with a candlelit dinner. It was a romantic and cozy dinner. Under the candlelight, the bright red wine in the wine cup shone brilliantly. Beside the dining table, a professional violinist was playing the violin. The sound of the violin was so long that it was intoxicating.After dinner, Blake drove Avery back to the villa. He stayed with her, watching her sleep.Avery's sleeping visage was quiet, her delicate, long eyelashes casting a shadow over her skin.He carefully covered the corner of her blanket, his movements extremely gentle. He was afraid that he would wake the sleeping girl. Avery, good night, a good dream. "He bent over and kissed Avery's forehead, then stood up and left.The car broke through the night and sped along the road, its destination being the villa at Anderson Family.Blake walked into the house. In the living room, General Anderson and Esme were talking, and the niece was playing with bricks by the side. She wore a
Prof. Johnson shook his head and sighed. He didn't know if he should call her stubborn or stupid. "80%." The professor of Prof. Johnson answered in a straight line.Avery was motionless, with a frown between her brows, when she heard Prof. Johnson add, "Mortality rate is 80%, so I hope you won't take the risk. To exchange one's life for another is, in medicine, an act of folly. "Walking out of the hospital's gate, Avery looked up at the sky, her small face pale to the point of transparency. It was obviously warm, like spring, but Avery suddenly felt cold. Her lead white hands gripped her collar tightly, pulling her outer robes tightly, still feeling cold."Ma'am, shall we go back?" The driver came over.Avery shook her head, "Take me to the amusement park. I want to relax.""Alright, alright." The driver eagerly opened the door for Avery.The amusement park had always been a paradise for children, but it was also spring. The children's laughter could be heard constantly from the amus
So it was a different time.Now, she was crowned with such a big hat in the name of love. Even more so, Avery couldn't bear it. The noble ladies of the upper class were naturally qualified politicians. If Avery still didn't leave after taking her big hat, she would become the executioner who destroyed Blake's life, causing his life to be incomplete.However, at this moment, the elegantly dressed woman sitting in front of her, who had always been aloof and aloof, did she know what love was?Love is not only to achieve, love or not to leave, but love is also to stick to; love is always together.Avery knew that it was impossible to have children and that her life was destined to be incomplete. She never had selfishly wanted Blake to be as vague as her, but she only wanted him to stay by her side for one more month, one more day, or even every minute and second.Her suffering, her pain, who could understand it?Avery's eyes became moist, but she smiled: "What do you want me to do?" After
When Blake returned to the bedroom, Avery was still awake. She said that she was tired, and that was just an excuse.Avery stood before the bedroom window, quietly looking out in that direction. She just so happened to see Audrey's car leave."What are you thinking about?" He took her in his arms from behind and held her gently in his arms.Avery silently shook her head.Blake sighed, "Can't you forgive her? Avery, Dr. Zuri plotting to kill you had nothing to do with Aunt Audrey. She's just like you, and she's a very kind person. ""Can you not talk about this?" Avery turned around and hugged him, her head gently resting on his chest."Mm. Alright." Blake replied warmly, his eyes deep and serene. He knew that Avery was escaping."You should go to the hospital for reexamination tomorrow. Sleep early, and I'll accompany you there tomorrow.""Alright." Avery complied, taking out the soft silk pajamas from the closet, then she walked into the bathroom."Avery." He suddenly called after he
Her words made Blake's face darken instantly, "Avery, do you know what you're saying? You're going to push me to someone else, aren't you? "His deep gaze fell on her, sharp with a trace of helplessness and sadness. His two fingers suddenly exerted force, extinguishing the cigarette's tip at his fingertips.Avery's head was pressed down very low, and her ice-cold little hands grabbed onto his warm and thick palm. Her voice was timid, like a child afraid of being punished for something wrong, "I, I didn't mean that.""What does that mean?" Blake was a little angry. What he disliked the most was her everyday look. She was always filled with sympathy, and she always quickly pushed him away, making him feel like she did not care about him at all."I just feel sorry for her." Avery's voice was getting lower and lower."She is not pitiful, and it has nothing to do with you. It has nothing to do with me. " Blake replied as he carried her and turned to walk back into the villa."Avery, I don'
It turned out that the night had already begun to sink.“You’re back.” She gave him a soft, gentle smile.Blake squatted before her and gently caressed her pale face with his palm. How long have you been here? “My body is so cold.”“It wasn’t long. The room is too stuffy, so I came out to get some fresh air.” Avery replied indifferently.Blake smiled, and without saying anything further, he carried her up from the ground and walked into the villa, “Didn’t you go to the department store earlier this morning? What did you buy?”“Nothing.” Avery casually replied.“Oh? Didn’t you have high-end female clothing? “Blake asked. Avery had bound his phone with his gold card in the morning, his family had clearly swiped some money, and he was still happy that his woman had finally learned to spend his money, but Avery’s gold card had bound his phone, and in the morning, his family’s gold card had obviously swiped some money, and he was still happy that his woman had finally learned to spend his
Dina did not care about the Lee family members and pounced towards Quizza's face but was stopped by a cold voice."Dina." Avery, who had been silent all this time, had finally opened her mouth. She stood up and slowly walked over, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, and the gaze that landed on Quizza's body carried a faint iciness."And who are you? "Mind your own business." Quizza's best friend was the first to speak.Avery smiled gently, the corners of her lips slightly raised, ethereal, and beautiful. I am Avery Foster, the ex-wife of Blake you all mentioned before, who can't give birth to a child and can die at any time. "Quizza was slightly shocked, and she sized Avery up from top to bottom. She was indeed a wonderful woman, with a faint and elegant temperament, remarkably similar to a bit of daisy that bloomed in the sun during the summer, but in her eyes, Avery was not an obstacle for her on her path forward because her disease did not even cause her the right to enter the J
