Chapter 121
Bella‘s POV:
In the morning, I sent a text message to Joey, asking her to come to the hospital today during the lunch break. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
This hospital wasn‘t too far from the Wharton Group. At noon, when I was having lunch, the door of the ward was opened and Joey came in. At this time, I still couldn‘t hear any sound, so I could only see Joey‘s anxious expression and her mouth that was talking.
I lowered my head and took out my phone. I typed on it. “Joey, my eardrums are damaged and temporarily deaf, so we can only communicate in words.”
Joey was stunned. She took out her phone and typed, “How did this happen?”
“I‘ll explain to you later. Call my mother first and tell her that I went abroad on a temporary business trip. She can‘t get to me through phone. I‘ll contact her when I come back.” I looked at Joey.
Joey nodded and dialed my mother‘s number.
Today, my mother had called me several times, but I didn‘t answer all of them. I was afraid that she would be too worried if she knew my situation.
That‘s why I asked Joey for help.
Soon, Joey ended the call and typed me a line of words. “Don‘t worry. Your mother doesn‘t know what‘s going on with you. What happened?”
Joey sat beside me. I sighed and told her what had happened recently. Joey was very angry. She typed a line of words on her phone. “Vivian has gone too far! Why did she beat you like this? And Klein, his
girlfriend beat you, but he didn‘t stop her...”
Joey continued to type. “Vivian deliberately hurt you. Why didn‘t you call the police? Even if they are lawyers, don‘t be afraid. It‘s Vivian‘s fault!”
I typed out a line of words in a dilemma. “Klein actually doesn‘t know that Vivian is looking for trouble with me. He has helped me a lot. If my ears can recover faster, I don‘t want to press charges against them.”
I knew that this kind of thing was really hard to explain. Maybe calling the police for a lawsuit would make people speculate about the relationship between Klein and I. It would be better for me to completely leave the QW Law Firm in the future and never see him again.
“Then you must ask for enough compensation from Vivian. I hope your ears can get better soon.” Joey typed another line.
Time passed quickly, and Joey left quickly.
After Joey left, I was left alone in the empty ward and I was in a bad mood. I tried my best to rub my ears, but I still couldn‘t hear anything. I clapped my hands, but there was still no sound. I was getting more and more panicked. What should I do if I was really deaf? As I thought about it, I fell asleep until six o‘clock in the afternoon.
S
Thadn‘t rested like this for a long time. Most of the time I would study for the CPA examination besides working
I had not slept well. I would wake up as long as there was any sound,
But this afternoon, I didn‘t wake up at all in between
This might be the biggest benefit after becoming deaf.
It was getting closer and closer to night, but Herbert still hadn‘t arrived. I was still alone in the ward.
| sat on the bed with my hands on my knees. There was no light in the ward. The light outside the window shone into the room, and I could only see the shape of the things in the room
At this moment, my heart was very lonely and confused.
My world was too quiet, as if I was the only one left in the world,
I had never felt this before.
Suddenly, the lights in the ward were turned on. The strong light made my eyes unable to bear it, so I instinctively reached out to block it.
When my eyes got used to the light in the room, I saw a figure standing in front of the hospital bed.
He stared at me with a pair of dark and bright eyes, with two lunch boxes in his hands. He stood in front of me.
When I felt very sad and lonely, Herbert appeared.
At this moment, I really wanted to throw myself into his arms and hug him tightly.
But I know I couldn‘t do that. His heart didn‘t belong to me.
Herbert was taking care of me now, just like when I was pregnant and after I gave birth, he still took care of me.
He could take care of me and fall in love with Caroline at the same time.
Perhaps he sometimes had a good impression of me, but I knew that I was not the only one he had a good impression.
The only love I wanted was that he loved me only.
I couldn‘t accept that he liked two women at the same time.
At the thought of what had happened in the past, I felt very sad.
Although I was very lonely now, I was still forcing myself to stay clear–headed. Herbert was a poison for me. I couldn‘t be greedy.
The next moment, a big warm hand suddenly touched my head.
| suddenly felt an electric shock, and my heart beat faster uncontrollably at this time.
I hated this feeling. He could always make me sink into his sea with a single movement.
I was trying to use my reason to suppress my emotions.
The next moment, I turned to get my phone, and my head was also moved away from his hand.
I immediately took out my phone and typed a line of words.
“When did you come?”
“It‘s been a few minutes.” He wrote a sentence on his phone.
I couldn‘t hear the sound of the door at all, let alone the sound of footsteps. I didn‘t know he was
here until he turned on the light.
At this moment, my mood was very bad. Did he see how I curled up in the bed just now? That‘s why he touched my head with his palm. Was he pitying me? At this moment, the strong self–esteem made me very uncomfortable. I really didn‘t want his sympathy. He couldn‘t give me what I really needed.
“I bought you your favorite bun.” After asking me to read the line of words, he put the two lunch boxes on the table on the hospital bed.
He still remembered what I loved to eat. I frowned.
Suddenly, I saw two lunchboxes and two tableware on the table.
I knew he wanted to eat with me here.
I was a little touched, but because of this, I didn‘t dare to approach him.
I was really afraid that I couldn‘t control my feelings and would hurt myself again. After that, I typed a line of words on my phone for him to see.
“I know you have a lot of social activities and work. You don‘t have to come to me all the time. My situation is stable now. I can be discharged in a few days.”
“What do you mean?” Herbert frowned. “I‘m just afraid of bringing you trouble.” I felt that he seemed to be angry.
Sure enough, the text he typed was full of gunpowder
