Chapter 158
Looking at Tiffany’s sincere expression, Richard raised his eyebrows and smiled calmly. “Since you’re so polite, I have no choice but to accept your thanks.”
“Well…”
Tiffany felt there was nothing wrong with it.
However, she felt something was wrong. It was as if she had accidentally fallen into a trap.
Weird
Before she could figure it out, Richard calmly added, “So I’ll take care of you while you’re hospitalized.”
“What?” said Tiffany.
“No, thanks!” Tiffany quickly waved her hand.
Richard is such a busy man, thought Tiffany, ‘How can he take care of me? Besides, my injury is not serious. I was determined to do so to gain Selena’s trust. At most, I can feed myself a few pills and will be fine in three to five days. Not even a scar will be left behind. I only don’t want to arouse suspicion and be discovered.
However, no matter how much Tiffany protested, how could Richard take back his words so easily?
He rubbed Tiffany’s head and said, “Go to sleep. I’ll watch over you.”
It was a reassuring sentence.
It was enough to dispel all the gloom.
Tiffany blinked and lay down obediently.
The main lights in the ward had been turned off, and only one night light was on.
Under the warm orange light, Richard’s tall figure sat quietly on the small sofa beside the bed. His long legs were casually crossed, and his posture was lazy.
He was a nobleman like the stars in the sky, unreachable. However, he always protected her with that seemingly domineering and gentle attitude.
Tiffany closed her eyes and slept peacefully.
The night was truly a beautiful one.
The sky was bright the next morning.
The smell of disinfectant came from the tip of Tiffany’s nose. She woke up and opened her eyes. She subconsciously looked around but did not see Richard.
Richard probably left a long time ago…
Tiffany was in a daze, She could not help but wonder if Richard’s appearance last night was a dream.
Upon seeing Tiffany in a daze, the nurse, changing her dressing gently comforted her, “Don’t be afraid. It won’t hurt.”
Tiffany nodded and returned a faint smile,
****
After changing Tiffany’s dressing, the nurse left, and the ward fell silent again.
After washing her face, Tiffany leaned against the raised hospitbed and opened her laptop to read the story posted. yesterday,
There were very few clicks. Almost no one read it..
Tiffany rubbed her nose and smiled. She casually wrote another 2.000 words and posted it.
Then, the ward door opened again. Tiffany thought the nurse had come in to deliver medicine to her. Unexpectedly, she
up and saw the two people she did not want to see the most.
looked
They were Kenneth and Sandra.
What a haunting spirit.
Due to the fire yesterday, Sandra and Kenneth each had burns of varying degrees on their bodies.
Coincidentally, they came to the same hospital.
Sandra’s sharp eyes saw Tiffany’s name on the hospital registration book yesterday, so she followed the wards early in the morning and found Tiffany.
She came to apologize to Tiffany,
Tiffany I’m sorry. Are you feeling better? Do you need me to stay and take care of you?” said Sandra.
She sounded so guilty as if she was willing to do anything for Tiffany to pay off the debi Selena had created.
She was so fake.
Tiffany waved her hand expressionlessly. “There’s no need. Please leave.”
However, Sandra did not move. She bit her lip and looked like she was about to cry. “Tiffany, I know you won’t forgive me, I don’t expect you to forgive me. But… can you give me a chance to atone for my sins? Otherwise, I’ll have a guilty conscience for the rest of my life!”
“A guilty conscience?
Tiffany smiled. “Do you have a conscience?”
Sandra was stunned.
“Remember to think before you speak, added Tiffany with a faint smile. “I haven’t asked how you appeared nearby back then. Why don’t you tell me now?”
Tiffany thought. The timing of Sandra’s appearance yesterday was too ingenious. Moreover, after Selena kidnapped Eric, I immediately chased after her. There might be only a ten-minute difference between. That was why Selena collapsed and her plan was interrupted! Then there is the question,
How did Sandra find out? Could it be she didn’t have any means of transportation, so slie chased them from Lovell City? Did she rely on her two feet to walk like a chicken and run to the suburbs? Don’t be ridiculous. Her words can only be used to dereive idiots like Kenneth.
To use them to deceive me? She can cultivate for another hundred years before lying
Tiffany spoke bluntly. Sandra’s face turned pale, and the tears in her eyes accumulated.
Tiffany, you’ve misunderstood. I sensed something amiss before it and received a call from my mother beforehand. She was being mysterious, so I subconsciously followed her. You misunderstood!”
Looking at Sandra’s tear-stained face, anyone who saw her sincere expression would feel pity for her.
Kenneth frowned and softly said, “Alright. Eric is fine now. Don’t be too harsh on Sandra. I believe she didn’t do it on purpose.”
Too harsh
Tiffany nodded and looked straight into Kenneth’s eyes.
She said slowly, “Good. I hope you can say such a thing one day after experiencing the desperate situation. Everything will be fine as long as no one is dead, right?”
Tiany laughed cynically
Kenneth, the ba**d, is as bad as ever! Kenneth rushed in to save Eric before the fire started yesterday. I was a little surprised. Thinking about it. He was desperate to get in there, it how could he do it for Eric? After all, he was worried. about Sandra, thought Tiffany.
Tiffany put her laptop aside and pulled the nurse’s bell impatiently.
The nurse hurried over. “What’s wrong?”
“Hi. please get these two out of here,” said Tiffany with an indifferent expression.
When the nurse saw that, she immediately told Kenneth and Sandra, Which wards are you from? Hurry up and go back Don’t disturb the rest of the patients.”
Kenneth never made things difficult for others. He nodded and prepared to leave.
However, Sandra insisted on standing where she was. She used the way to silently express that she would not leave if Tiffany refused to forgive her.
“Sandra, please don’t do this!” said Kenneth.
Kenneth got a headache.
In his eyes, Sandra had always been smart. Moreover, she was gentle and kind. She would never do anything that would make things difficult for others.
However, Sandra could be stubborn as a mule when she faced Tiffany every time. Every ting… she made things worse, intentionally or unintentionally.
When the nurse saw w that, she was in a dilemma. “You…”
However, they were all patients.
In particular, Sandra looked weak. Her hospital gown was loose, and there were many burn marks on her body. Those were not injuries that could be easily touched,
Tiffany narrowed her eyes and said, “Are you threatening me?”
“I just want to ask for your forgiveness…” said Sandra.
Sandra wiped her tears, feeling wronged and pitiful.
The atmosphere was in a deadlock. Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind. Then stand there until you die!”
