Chapter 31: He Is Just An Accident (1/2)
Proofread by Peter Gong
Before Charlie enters the door of the ward, he hears familiar screams coming from it. He runs in the ward in a hurry and sees Vivi standing there as soon as he opens the door. Her forehead is covered by her hands, and the blood has flowed down her cheeks.
He is shocked and runs to her, ”Vivi, what's wrong? What happened?”
The moment Charlie appears, Vivi hurries to hide herself in his arms and sobs just like catching the last straw to save her life, ”Mandy...” Mandy wanted to kill me.”
When hearing that, Charlie looks up in dismay and sees Mandy indifferently looking at them. Charlie's heart suddenly trembles when he sees the indifference in her eyes.
But before he has the chance to think, a medical staff member rushes in and hurriedly takes her to bind up the wound when seeing Vivi's b.l.o.o.d.y face. Charlie takes a look at Mandy and goes out with them.
When the room is quiet again. Mandy slowly unlocks the clenched fists.
All is fake. Charlie and she can't go back to the past.
Mandy laughs at herself in the heart, and warns herself once again that Charlie is her enemy and she can't be soft-hearted towards him.
In the medical treatment room, the doctor is disinfecting and cleaning Vivi's wound. Mandy throws at her very hard, so the wound is big. She looks at Charlie beside her, but says nothing with her tearful eyes.
Vivi knows that it's inappropriate to say anything to Charlie now, but she would rather play the victim thoroughly.
While seeing that Vivi is painful, grits her teeth but still says nothing, Charlie is distressed as expected. He sighs, grabs her hands into his palm, and asks gently, ”Vivi, are you painful?”
”Nothing. I can stand it.” Vivi is somewhat complacent, and then pretends to be generous. She says to Charlie, ”Charlie, don't blame Mandy. It is supposed to be angry for her when seeing me.”
Charlie recalls the indifference in Mandy's eyes, and his heart involuntarily sinks. He pats Vivi on the back of her hand, instead of answering her, ”Vivi, why are you in the hospital?”
”I want to have a physical examination, after all... After all, we want to have children.” Vivi shyly lowers the head and blurts out the words she has prepared in advance.
