Chapter 1323Her blood-stained hand gently caressed Skyler Robins’ cheek, her fingers trembling uncontrollably. The
wind blew relentlessly, chilling her to the bone.
But Shirley Wilson was more concerned about Skyler Robins’ condition. She took off her white down
jacket and covered him with it. “Ky, don’t scare me… Please, nothing can happen to you.”
She held him tightly, leaning over with her cheek against his forehead, terrified to the core. Shirley
Wilson knew that Skyler Robins had suffered severe internal injuries, but even after staying in the
hospital for so long, he still hadn’t fully recovered.
As a doctor herself, she couldn’t believe that she had failed to take care of her own well- being.
Shirley Wilson gave all her warmth to Skyler Robins, while she herself wore only a knitted sweater. The
cold wind seeped through the sweater, making her shiver uncontrollably, oblivious to the cold.
With one hand around his neck, she let him lean against her chest, while the other hand held his,
constantly rubbing his fingers to keep him warm.
“Ky, I’m sorry for leaving without saying goodbye.”
“After leaving Bloomstead, I regretted it. I wanted to go back, to find you again. But I realized that you
never looked for me, not even once. I know you must have seen the video of me with Wade Yoder, and
you must have thought I was unfaithful.”
“So, I didn’t dare… I didn’t dare to turn back.”
“You asked me if I love you…” Shirley Wilson’s eyes turned red, tears streaming down her face. She
held his hand against her chest. “I want to tell you. I love you, very much.”Her chin rested on Skyler Robins’ forehead, filled with sadness and despair. “But how can I love you
when you won’t let me?”
With tears and a trembling voice, Shirley Wilson sobbed, “Do you know, when I found out I was
pregnant with your child in the hospital, I wanted… I wanted so badly to tell you. I wanted to tell you,
Ky, that I’m carrying your child. No, our child! But I didn’t dare.”
“I was afraid that if you knew, Sofia Green would find out too. And at that time, I was afraid that Ben
and I wouldn’t be able to protect our child.”
“But as I daydreamed and fantasized about the possibility of turning back to find you someday, I found
out that she was also pregnant with your child, and that you were planning… planning to get married…”
At this point, Shirley Wilson couldn’t hold back her sobs any longer. It seemed like all the sadness and
emotions of the past two months poured out of her.
Shirley Wilson couldn’t bring herself to hate Skyler Robins for “playing both sides” and having a child
with another woman. Her love for him had surpassed everything, to the point where she couldn’t find it
in her to hate a man she loved deeply.
After what felt like an eternity, the ambulance finally arrived. Shirley Wilson accompanied the
ambulance to the hospital, and once he was admitted, she waited outside the emergency room.
After a long and agonizing wait of over half an hour, the doctor finally emerged from the room. Seeing
the doctor come out, Shirley Wilson immediately approached and asked, “Doctor, how is he… how is
he doing?”
“The patient has internal injuries, and Ben hasn’t fully recovered, which is why he coughed up blood.
He’s out of danger now, but he still needs to stay in the hospital for treatment,” the doctor explained.Shirley Wilson anxiously inquired about Skyler Robins condition in more detail, and the doctor
answered each question.
Knowing that he would have to stay in the hospital for a while to receive treatment, Shirley Wilson felt a
pang of heartache, but at least her worries were somewhat relieved. As long as he was okay, that was
all that mattered.
In the meantime, Skyler Robins was wheeled out. Lying on the hospital bed, he remained unconscious,
and Shirley Wilson followed the bed as it was pushed, accompanying the nurse to the ward.
Once he was settled, he was hooked up to an IV drip. Shirley Wilson sat on the bedside chair, holding
his hand, and watched Skyler Robins, who remained unconscious. Her heart ached so much it felt like
it was breaking.
