Chapter 193 You Will Save Her, Wont You (1/2)
When Emily tried to take a peek inside the ward, she caught the sight of a girl sitting on a bed. She was sweet and pretty, but her face was pale as ice. She had a smart disposition, as if the whole universe was hidden behind her breathtakingly pure eyes.
”Victor, when can I go out?” asked the girl.
Victor looked at her tenderly, as if he could only see her in his eyes. ”Soon,” he replied.
”What do you mean by 'soon'?”
”A few days later, if everything goes accordingly.”
Anne laughed, and winked at him. ”Can I meet the kind-hearted donator you told me about?” she asked.
Victor froze for a second, but he showed no change in his facial expression. ”Sorry, the donator wants to protect her privacy. I can't fulfil your wish,” he said plainly.
”I see,” Anne replied, reluctantly. Anne was disheartened by Victor's words. She looked down as if she were upset, but it was hard to determined whether she believed Victor's words or not.
”But we can break some rules for you today. You can have half of my strawberry cake,” he said. Victor cautiously changed the topic. Seeing the satisfaction in her face, he gradually smiled at her.
As a matter of fact, he was lying to her, but he had no regrets.
Hiding outside of the ward, Emily gasped, as her eyes widened with astonishment. She had never seen Victor act like that before, and the tenderness in his eyes was overwhelming. He was like a chocolate lava cake, hard on the outside, but soft on the inside.
'I have never seen this side of Victor.
Who would have guessed that he wasn't actually such a heartless person?
What kind of person could bring out Victor's tenderness? She must be someone very dear and important to him.'
”Who's there?” Emily's thoughts were interrupted by the voice of a female that came from inside the ward. As soon as she looked up, her eyes met the curious eyes of a young girl looking at her through the half-open door.
