Chapter 764: Chapter 764



.

“Only older people like brightly colored clothes. They think it’s attractive.”

“Stop laughing at my fashion sense again!” Oscar roared from the other end of the phone.

Theresa’s words evidently annoyed him.

Theresa smiled, “All right, I’ll stop now, okay?”

“That’s more like it. Hurry up and give me the address.” Actually, Oscar wasn’t angry at all, he just wanted to lighten the mood and tease Theresa. He knew she was in a bad mood about attending Armand here and he wanted to make her a little happier.

Theresa said the address again.

Oscar answered yes. They said goodbye and hung up.

Theresa turned away and Armand closed his eyes again. He was a little nervous.

Sometimes, instinct was not only for women, but also for men. Armand sensed the crisis.

It wasn’t that he didn’t believe Theresa, but that he feared she would eventually fall in love with someone else.

In C-town, she always stayed with Oscar. Surely she will develop feelings for him, even if it’s not between men and women. It’s human nature.

Theresa went to get water and came back to wipe Armand’s face and hands.

Armand wiggled his fingers deliberately. He can’t keep pretending. What if he chases Theresa away?

Wouldn’t he lose more than gain?

Theresa noticed his finger wiggling and called excitedly, “Armand, Armand.”

Armand didn’t respond. Theresa thought he was hallucinating. She watched his fingers carefully. After a while, he was moving again and had deliberately widened his movements.

This time Theresa made sure she saw him and hurried to call the doctor.

The doctor came over and pretended to check on him. Seeing that Armand could wake up whenever he wanted and even look real, he secretly complained that it was a pity that Armand was not an actor.

However, since he was bribed by him, he could only cooperate with the performance.

Theresa stepped back and asked nervously, “Is he about to wake up?”

Armand secretly tugged on the doctor’s sleeve. The doctor immediately said, “The patient is likely to wake up. His movement shows that he is conscious.”

Theresa nodded and asked, “When can he wake up?”

The doctor thought for a moment. “Any minute now.” Theresa nodded with a sigh of relief.

“Call me if there’s anything,” the doctor said.

Theresa said, “Okay, thanks.”

The doctor felt guilty. “You’re welcome, it’s my duty.”

When the doctor left, Theresa continued to clean Armand’s face.

She went to pour water and found that Armand had woken up when she returned.

Armand said softly, “Theresa.”

At that moment, he looked like he had just woken up and was weak.

Theresa took his hand. “You’re awake.”

Armand gave her a look. “What’s wrong?”

“You’ve been in a car accident, can’t I come? But it’s okay as long as you wake up.” Theresa said hoarsely. She was crying because she was too happy and excited.

Armand looked up and wiped her tears away. “I’m fine, you don’t have to cry.”

Theresa didn’t speak. She just felt sad. She didn’t know why she felt sad either.

Armand felt guilty and put his hand around her. “I’m sorry.”

Theresa shrank into his arms.

She said nothing.

It seemed that no words could express the sorrow she felt.

As for why she felt aggrieved, she wasn’t clear on that either.

Just then, there was a knock at the living room door. Theresa wiped her face and went to open the door. It was a delivery man. It could be that it was hot outside and she was sweating all over.

“Are you Miss Gordon?” the guy asked.

Theresa answered yes.

“Here’s your takeout.” He pulled out the lunch boxes one by one.

Theresa took them and thanked him.

The guy outside just smiled and walked away with the insulated delivery bag.

Theresa put the lunch boxes on the table and opened them one by one.

It could be that Oscar feared Theresa had no appetite. The food ordered was relatively light, but there was plenty of it. There were six or seven dishes in all.

Armand deliberately asked, “Is this what you ordered?” Theresa said yes casually and didn’t want to explain.

Because if she said it was Oscar who had ordered it, Armand would surely ask if Oscar was in B-town.

If she said no, Armand might ask if he was in City C, why would he order a meal for her if it was so far away.

Armand gave her a look and didn’t understand why she wasn’t telling the truth. He felt a little nervous. “Theresa.”

Theresa turned around. “Yes?”

He grabbed Theresa’s hand. “Come here.”

Theresa put the lunch box down in her hands, walked over and asked quietly, “What’s wrong, are you feeling sick?”

Armand shook his head. “No.” He paused and hugged Theresa. “I’m afraid of losing you.”

Theresa said, “As long as you live, you won’t lose me.” Armand was still restless and hugged her tightly.

“Have something first, I still have to call Grandma, otherwise she’s still worried about you.” Theresa tried to get up and didn’t dare be too sudden in her movement, afraid to touch her wound.

Armand said, “You can call and eat later. Right now, I just want to hug you.”

When the car accident happened, it was very dangerous. At that moment, he was also afraid of really dying. Theresa’s face flashed through his mind.

He was afraid he would never see her again.

Theresa lay quietly in his arms.

Armand squeezed her arms. “Promise me you will never leave me again, no matter when, will you promise me?”

Theresa said yes and patiently told him, “Okay, this is the hospital. It’s bad for people to see us like this. You should eat.”

Armand remembered that she hadn’t eaten and let her go.
