âEmmeline.â Alana smiled softly. She came over and sat on the bedside. âAre you feeling better? Abel told me last night that you were drunk, worried about you and wanted to see you at midnight. But Abel hugged me tight and didnât let me go.â
Emmelineâs eyes widened. What is Alana talking about?
Emmeline had been in a coma last night and did not know what had happened. All she knew was that when she opened her eyes this morning, Abel stayed beside her. But Alanaâs words made her suspicious about that.
âAbel was with you last night?â Emmeline could not believe it.
âYes.â Alana smiled gently. âAfter you got the injection, you fell asleep, and Abel went to my ward. He knew I had been suffering from insomnia in the hospital, so he stayed with me to sleep, but I donât know when he came over to you because I was asleep by then.â
Emmeline was stunned. Really?
Alana saw that Emmeline still had some disbelief, so she signaled at Quentin.
âDr. Anderson, do you know what time Abel came here?â
âAbout five oâclock,â Quentin said, âWhen Mr. Abel came to the observation room from the inpatient department, I just came out of the emergency room, so I remember it very clearly.â
âSo Abel has been with me for hours.â
âMs. Louise is fine. So Mr. Abel must accompany you,â Quentin said.
Seeing that Emmelineâs face turned pale, Alana stood up in satisfaction.
âEmmeline, you rest first. I wonât bother you anymore.â
âHmm.â Emmeline nodded indifferently. âGoodbye.â
Alana turned around and left with a smug smile. Emmeline was left to wander in the ward.
Abel actually went to accompany Alana last night? But he was lying next to me just now!
Emmeline felt annoyed.
Abel, youâre not that disgusting, are you?
After thinking about it, Emmeline decided to leave the hospital.
She only drank a little hard liquor. It was no big deal. Besides, no matter whether what Alana said was true, Emmeline did not want to see Abel again.
She had no idea how to ask him. But if she did not ask him, she would feel upset. So it was better not to see him.
Emmeline walked through the medicine hall and wanted to leave through the side door.
Boom! She suddenly bumped into a man.
That man looked down at the medical report in his hand and did not see the húrrying Emmeline. They only discovered the other party when they bumped into each other.
âEmma?â
âAdrien?â
Even though Adrien was wearing a black mask, Emmeline still recognized him.
âWhy are you here?â They asked at the same time.
âIâ¦â Emmeline answered, âI come to visit someone. How about you?â
Adrien frowned deeply. âEmma, Iâve taken many medicines and had physiotherapy several times. Why is it still not working?â
âWhatâs still not working?â Emmeline forgot about Adrienâs condition.
âWhat else?â Adrien said bitterly, âI mean my manâs dignity!â
Upon hearing that, Emmeline remembered his situation. Her expression was slightly embarrassed.
âUh⦠Continue to take medicine and physiotherapy! Maybe youâll be fine soon.â
âAh, I feel bothered!â Adrien was frustrated, and he looked worried.
Emmeline felt a little pity for him, but she could not stay here any longer. She was afraid that Abel would meet her when he came back.
Emmeline hurriedly bid farewell to Adrien and left through the side door of the hospital.
Abel packed breakfast at the Nimbus Hotel and hurried to the observation room, but he did not see Emmeline.
Abel asked the nurse on duty, but she said she did not see Emmeline either.
Abel was anxious, then saw Adrien walking past with a bag of medicine.
