Kathy wondered in a daze if she could escape Joseph completely. She was really tired and didn't want
to bear the hatred he gave her.
After a long time, Kathy finally couldn't help but scream. The colic in the abdomen was accompanied by
the heat flow out of the body, and finally, everything was gone.
Her eyes were filled with distress and guilt. This child was destined to be born, it was too innocent.
Tears poured down her cheeks, and her consciousness became more and more blurred. At the last
moment, she only heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and she completely lost
consciousness.
Her eyelids were heavy, she seemed to have heard the sound of an ambulance, and there was also a
very noisy noise, and her left hand seemed to have been firmly held.
It was summer, and her hand was cold due to blood loss and pain, but the hand holding her was colder
than her.
The chill in the man's palm was so tightly pressed against her skin, but the voice of the medical staff
lingered in her ears. She did not hear the sound that had been carved into the bone marrow.
Was she dying...otherwise why she can feel the huge fear of the man next to her.
She seemed to have a very long dream. During the operation, before she woke up, she fell into a
dream.
By the sea, two small figures stood facing each other.
"I heard that your family came to pick you up, will you leave?"
"Well, I will."
"So, you are not homeless?"
"But I don't want to go back, I don't like it there." The boy's voice was sullen.
The girl frowned and hugged him lightly, “You should be happy that you can go home."
"I want to stay here."
"Why? Isn't it because of me?" The girl smiled slyly, and just said it casually.
The boy's gaze dodged immediately, and he didn't speak any more.
But his handsome little face gradually became Joseph's face...
Suddenly she opened her eyes. Kathy never forgot that dream just now, it was so real.
She remembered that Joseph had told her that he had lived in an orphanage for some time when he
was a child, and that age coincided with the age of the little boy.
It was him.
She slowly closed her eyes again, somewhat unwilling to believe this fact.
She was in despair.
At this moment, a nurse just opened the door and came in, "had you wake up?"
While the nurse bent down to check the drip on the back of her hand, she told her, "Your servant went
out to buy things and will not come back until a while. Is there anything wrong with you? Do you have a
stomachache? Are you thirsty?"
Kathy was stunned for a long time, then shook her head dumbly.
The hand under the quilt moved subconsciously, but it just stopped at the waist and didn't move
anymore.
The nurse adjusted the speed of the drip. Seeing that her lips were very dry, she said, "I'll pour you a
glass of warm water."
"Thank you."
Kathy realized that her voice was very hoarse and she was exhausted when she said the words.
Perhaps it was because she had slept too long, or the memories made her feel too surprised. Her
physical strength seemed to be exhausted and she even felt uncomfortable when she breathed.
She lay down on the bed for a while, and it didn't take long before she saw her servant, Cleo, come
back with a big bag of things.
Seeing Kathy finally woke up, Cleo's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
She started working as a servant in Joseph Bay four years ago. Joseph and Kathy have always treated
her very well. These years, although the two have separated and the house had been vacant, Joseph
had always asked her to clean on time. The host must love Ms Kathy.
But now seeing Kathy like this, she always felt distressed.
She didn’t know why the two came to such a situation.
"Ms Kathy... why are you so careless?" After a while, Cleo said distressedly, but she was afraid Kathy
would be sad, so she didn't continue to say anything.
"I'm fine." Instead, Kathy made a pathetic attempt to smile.
"How can you be fine? You must be painful." Cleo comforted her, "don't think about anything now, take
care of yourself first."
There were fruits and hot soup in the handbag. Cleo took them out one by one, put the soup in a small
bowl and waited for it to cool before feeding it to Kathy.
After taking the medicine, she closed her eyes again and rested, but she couldn't sleep anymore and
kept her eyes open until dawn.
Joseph came over the next day, and Kathy just took the medicine at this time, and then she fell asleep.
When she woke up again, it happened that the doctor made the rounds of the wards.
She recovered well after the operation, but the doctor asked her about her condition very carefully.
The doctor was followed by a few young interns. A large group of people came over and left. In the
end, only the nurse who helped Kathy pour water the day before was left. She was the permanent one
in this single ward. When the patient’s family was away, she took on the responsibility of caring for the
patient.
Since Kathy woke up from the operation, the nurse took care of her passionately and patiently, and the
nurse was almost as old as her. Cleo can't be with her 24 hours a day, so the nurse needed to stay with
Kathy few hours.
The nurse loved to laugh very much. She had two dimples on her cheeks, so she looked very sweet,
and even her voice was sweet. When she talked to Kathy, she was very gentle.
Kathy had a good impression of her, and would chat with her when she was in good spirits.
After the doctors were all out, Kathy looked at the coffee table next to her and asked thinly, "Someone
was here just now?"
In addition to the tablet and a few books left by Cleo, there was also a box of cigarettes and a lighter on
the coffee table, which looked strange in a non-smoking ward.
She knew Joseph seemed to be addicted to cigarettes after meeting him again.
Although he used to smoke occasionally, but he smoked rarely, but now, he smoked more frequently.
The nurse answered, "I forgot to tell you... someone came to visit you just now."
In fact, Kathy had guessed, but she still asked in a low voice, "Who?"
"His name seems to be Joseph." The nurse thought for a while, "When you were sent over the day
before yesterday, he was always by your side. Is this your boyfriend?"
The nurse didn’t ask if he was Kathy’s husband because Kathy’s medical record clearly wrote she was
unmarried. But if they were not couples, how could that handsome man hold Kathy’s hand all the time
and been waiting during Kathy had surgery.
But Kathy just shook her head lightly, "No."
She and Joseph were not couples.
He and Zofia were couples.
"Emm..." The nurse was surprised. After a while, she said, "But when you fell asleep just now, he has
been sitting here for a long time."
