Chapter 330 I Love You
“Stella! Wake up, Stella!”
Stefan didn’t arrive at the hospital, calling Stella loudly, until it’s almost at dawn.
“Doctor, she was stabbed in the left side of the belly 20 minutes ago.”
After he described precisely the details of the weapon and Stella’s condition, the doctor and nurses pushed Stella into the operating theatre, doing a more-than-two-hour surgery, and Stefan was waiting still outside the door of the room like a quiet stature.
Hayden arrived at the hospital at 9 a.m.
She knew nothing about the whole plan until she overheard the conversation between the housekeeper and Mr. Beckham that Franklin was taken away by the police, and it’s reported by the media that something happened in the warehouse.
She at once rang up Joseph who went to the ST Group early in the morning, and reproached him furiously after knowing that the plan was made up by him and Stefan.
“Don’t you know Stefan is so young? He has no experience! Why not just call the police? What if anything severer happened?”
Joseph stayed silent until she stopped blaming him,
“I will go to the hospital when the company is operating as usual. You can go there first. He is fine actually, but the leader of the same team got wounded.”
When Hayden was informed that Stella was hurt because of protecting Stefan, she became outraged.
“You need to be more meticulous before taking actions. The girl is just 19 years old and how can you comfort her parents if she dies.”
Stefan listened to Hayden’s scolding quietly, standing at the door of the ward.
“Do you learn from Joseph?” Hayden pinched him, “All the men are the same. When they do something wrong, they say nothing.”
Then she gave her bag to Stefan,
“What are you doing? Go and buy some food, some bland food.”
Stefan answered, “Ok, I will be back soon.”
Looking at his back, Hayden sighed.
Although he was smart in analyzing like an adult, he seemed obtuse now who didn’t any food for the girl. A night passed, and the girl must need food to gain some energy. What an idiot in relationship.
In the ward which was painted white, Hayden bought a bunch of flowers to Stella who now was recovering in the general ward after the operation.
When she entered, the girl reading a book about military and weapons looked up instantly, and after she recognized who she was, she smiled,
“I remember you. You are the Stefan’s sister.”
“Yes.” Hayden smiled as well, putting the flowers at the bedside, “I am Hayden, several years your senior. You can treat me as your sister as Stefan does.”
Actually, Hayden indicated nothing but the girl had more thoughts with a flushed face, who ducked her head and twisted the quilt, saying, “Stefan and I are just classmates and comrades and we are not in
love…”
Hayden was amused. She didn’t want Stella to lose face, so she said, “Alright, you can call my name directly. After all, I am not very old.”
“Thank you. You are a good sister.” Stella answered.
“Your name is Stella?” Hayden asked. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yes.” Stella nodded, “They all call me like that.”
“I was told that you got wounded because of Stefan.”
“It’s fine,” Stella said seriously, “I am responsible for his safety since he is the member of my team.”
“Really?” Hayden said deliberately, “Oh, I have misunderstood your relationship and I rejected to arrange a blind date for Stefan before. Now I’d better resume it.”
“No, please don’t!”
Hearing this, Stella became anxious and nearly jumped out of the bed.
Hayden pressed her back to the bed quickly, “Stay quiet. You have not recovered. Mind your wound, Stella.”
“Don’t arrange that for him.” Stella looked nervous, “He cannot have a date with another girl.”
“Why?”
Hayden teased.
Stella kept a flushed face and then she answered directly, “Because I love him.”
At this moment, Stefan opened the door with a bag of food. He walked in confusedly, put the food at the bedside and asked casually,
“You love what?”
Stella bit her lips and stared at him for a few seconds, “I love you.”
Stefan suddenly stopped and kept bending down
“Do something else, Stefan.” Hayden made fun of him.
“What?” Stefan was not sober any more. He stood straight and answered, “Oh, there’s no soup here. I’d better buy some soup now.”
Then he ran away at once.
Stella shouted at his back, “You know what I mean. If I don’t love you, why did I get hurt for you?”
Her voice was so powerful that she was not like a girl who just had her wound sewed by needles.
Hayden now realized why people regarded Stella valiant.
She thought that Stella was innocent and naïve with good balances, while Stefan was smart yet weak in fighting. They were the opposite of each other. Their story was that a bold girl tried to win the affection of a young man who was quite indifferent in love on the campus.
“Why did he run so fast? I am not a devil.”
Stella was unhappy about his reaction.
“But you seemed to want to do something to him right now.” Hayden could not help smiling and thumbed up to her, “You did a good job.”
“But he doesn’t love me.” Stella looked upset, continuing to twist the quilt and then sighed, “Hayden, which kind of girls Stefan likes?”
Hayden was silent at the question and something suddenly occurred to her. She told Stella, “Oh, I know! I have heard it from him before.”
“Tell me please.”
Actually she could not remember all the details since she asked him when they drank the milky tea in the University of Public and Security. But his last words were clear to her.
“He said he loved the one who was similar to his mother.” Hayden said firmly.
“What?” Stella could not believe that and stammered, “Similar to his mother?”
It was a surprise to Stella who never thought that he had the Oedipus Complex. He now was a man with a twisted mind to her.
Outside the hospital, Stefan sneezed for several times, feeling that his neck was cold and gathering his cloak around him.
He pondered that it’s always extremely cold before the frost and after the snow which was falling last night. Now he felt that his limbs were ice-cold.
