Chapter Chapter493 The Only Dignity
"John? What's the matter with you? What happened?" Haylee's heart beat wildly, and John's look made her unconsciously quiver.
John looked at her with sharp eyes, and said in a gloomy voice, "Come with me."
"John, what do you want to do? We're in the hospital, and Haylee has to take care of me." After noticing John's strange expression, Mrs. Reina said immediately.
John darted a look at Mrs. Reina and said, "I'll ask the hospital to arrange two more nurses for you."
"You..."
"Come with me!" Squeezing her hand, he took her out, giving no explanation.
Mrs. Reina called him worriedly, and when she saw him ignore it, she tried to get out of the bed.
Mr. Sam grabbed her, "All right. Let young people solve their own affairs. How can you help? If they want to live together for a life time, it's indispensable to have necessary communication. Is it possible that you can persuade them not to quarrel every day?" Mrs. Reina frowned, "But, looking at John's expression, I'm afraid that..."
"Don't worry. Do you really think Haylee is tactless and just good at complaining tearfully to you like a little girl?"Mr. Sam eloquently said, "The young girls nowadays are really astute, and there are so many things you can't think of."
But having a little scheming was a good thing. Even if he understood he took the blame for others last time, it would be a good thing for him to turn over a new leaf.
One day he would understand that his parents were for his own good.
Although having listened to his enlightenment, Mrs. Reina was still a little anxious.
Mr. Sam didn't know how to comfort her, and could only divert her attention constantly.
Haylee was taken to a quiet place, and then John flung off her hand violently. She was so ached and tears welled up in her eyes, looking at the obvious fingerprints and redness on her wrist.
"John, what exactly are you trying to tell me? I..." Haylee puckered her lips, lowered her head and said pitifully.
John stared at her with sharp eyes, "Did you do that?"
The prosaic utterances imprinted on her heart like an inscription that had been engraved for a long time, bringing a wave of coldness.
His hand resting on her waist stiffened for a few seconds before she twitched the corner of her mouth, "You... John, what did I do?
John grabbed her chin, making her look straight up at him.
Faced with the indifference in his eyes, she trembled, "John..."
"I mean, did you plot the accident? Don't you understand?" John's words destroyed all the fluke in her heart.
Haylee took a deep breath. Many intricate thoughts drifted through her mind for an instant.
Who told him? Hasn't this matter passed long ago? Why did he still mention it? Hasn't he already thought that another person did it? Why? Did Vivian tell him? It must be her, because except for her, no one would be nosy to do such a dirty job. For a moment, viciousness, jealousy and hatred flashed in her eyes, but there was no trace of guilt he wanted to see.
Suddenly, he relaxed his grip on her hand.
"Haylee, we grew up together, and I thought I knew you well. When my parents forced me to be with you, I complained but I never was rude to you, and even thought you were also a victim. But now I found out that I really never knew you. "John said ruthlessly.
It was his fault, for he had always regarded her as a younger sister and never took any precautions against her. In retrospect, his parents had never seen Vivian, but they had a bad impression of her from the very beginning. In addition to Roe and her family status, there should be her fanning up the flames of trouble furtively.
It was a pity that he only understood it now and nothing could be done now.
Haylee was scared by his expression, feeling that she was about to lose everything she had gained so hard.
She stepped forward, held John's cuff and said anxiously, "John, how could you not know me? I'm Haylee. As you said, we grew up together, and I never concealed anything from you..."
"Indeed, Vivian's accident was partly due to me. But it was for a reason. I have liked you for so many years. Why should an extraneous woman suddenly come to take you away from me? I'm just not reconciled, and afraid that you will be taken away. So I did something wrong out of anger." "John, I'm sorry. Would you forgive me? I promise it will never happen again. I will listen to whatever you say in the future, and won't be against Vivian anymore. And she's fine now, right? John, I..."
John shook off her cuff, "That's it, I've had enough!"
"John..." Her eyes widened.
John said slowly in her expectant eyes, "After my mother's surgery is over, I will tell them to cancel our engagement. I will give you one night, and you can make an announcement in advance. For the sake of your calling me brother for so many years, it's the only dignity that I can give you. When meeting in the future, we had better pretend to be strangers!"
"John, do you want to leave me?" Haylee burst into tears. But her dainty weeping face could not make him softhearted.
John skipped her face and said in a clear and firm voice, "Yes!"
Then he turned around and left.
Haylee suddenly laughed at herself, "John, in fact, you are a coward. You can't get that woman, just because you are not firm enough and can't compare to William. You can't watch them happily together, so I became your medium for venting anger. You blamed everything on a woman and made me suffer, but didn't want to admit that you failed!" John instantly turned around, and his eagle-like eyes glowed with red light, which was the anger after being seen through.
At that moment, Haylee seemed to be fearless. With her eyes full of tears, she giggled, "Admit it! You can't stack up against William, regardless of family background, character, appearance, scheming, and means. Do you think that you have conflicts with your family and are driven to the wall again and again are all my faults? No, William has also created difficulties for you. He was determined to have the woman from the beginning to end. Only you knew nothing, and are stupidly angry with the person who loves you the most." "Although I love you, I still want to say that you can't be compared with him! You can't compare to him in your life!"
