Chapter 128 We Can’t Go back to the Past

Book:CEO's Substitute Bride Published:2024-5-1

The person who modified my work drew a circle in the modified place.
He made a little mark.
This little circle was a little different. It was a bit like”X”.
Only Daniell had this habit.
I was suddenly nervous at the thought of him.
Wasn’t he in his hometown? And last time he said he would open a company in his hometown.
Why was he in York and helping me modify the design?
It was impossible.
But Daniell was the only one with such a deft style and accurate judgment.
I was confused.
I went to the hospital after work that day. I asked the doctor about Sherry. Sherry was still in a coma.
According to the doctor, if Sherry continued to be comatose, she may be judged as a vegetable.
I understand the concept of vegetables.
Although there were miracles in many TV dramas that the vegetative people woke up, those were TV dramas after all. In reality, the possibility of the vegetative people waking up was almost one in ten million.
I stood in front of the glass wall of Sherry’s ward and was very sad.
I remembered when I just came back from the orphanage, Sherry took my hand and said to me, “we are a family from now on.”
Even if they didn’t like me, she said to me, “you are my granddaughter.”
As I watched Sherry, my cell phone rang.
It was Arthur.
“Hello, Arthur.”I picked up the phone.
“June, I have a few questions for you.”
Arthur asked me a few questions directly.
The main one was when my card disappeared.
I really couldn’t remember.
After all, I seldom used this card. Even if it disappeared, I didn’t notice.
After listening, Arthur was silent for a while and then said, “think about when your bag was not be with you after your grandmother is hospitalized.”
I agreed.
I hung up and went back to work on my design.
To prove it, I drew for a while and then tried to pretend to sleep.
But I was really tired. I fell asleep after lying on my stomach for a while.
I felt like I was standing in the dark. I was a little scared at that moment. I couldn’t help shivering.
It was like I was usually in the dark.
When I was afraid and couldn’t move, I saw something moving in front of me.
To be exact, it was a person.
I looked carefully and found it was Sherry!
“Grandma!”
The moment I saw her, all my fears disappeared. I ran to her. But no matter how I ran, Sherry was far away from me!
“Grandma!”
I shouted as I ran.
Sherry was a few steps away. There was still a loving smile on her face.
I didn’t know how long I had been running. When I was closer to her, something stuck in Sherry’s heart!
Sherry’s face changed. She disappeared in a flash.
“Grandma!”
I woke up!
I opened my eyes.
I was in a dark room.
The cool moonlight splashed into the room through the window, and I recognized that I was in the nursing room.
But when I turned to the small table, I saw that my computer was still on. I could see a person sitting in front of the computer through the light of the screen.
He was looking at me when I looked at him.
He didn’t seem to expect me to wake up.
“Daniell.”
It was really Daniell.
I was not surprised to see him, but I was a little excited and moved.
Daniell saw me wake up and he didn’t turn on the light. He went straight to my bed and helped me with my messy hair. He said softly, “keep sleeping. I’ll take care of that picture.”
The light was dim but I could see the pain in his eyes.
“No. This is my own business. I can’t trouble you.”I got up from bed and shook my head to drive the sleepiness away.
Then I turned on the light in the room and sat in front of the computer.
In fact, this picture had changed a lot.
He stood by and watched me close the picture and open a new one. He gave a wry smile.”You really haven’t changed. I’ve saved the previous version for you.”
“Thank you.”I found the previous version.
In fact, if he didn’t save it, I would draw another picture or give up the competition. I wouldn’t compete with his picture.
Because Daniell’s version was very different from mine.
I smiled bitterly at my drawing.”I’d better delete it and draw a new one.”
Daniell shook his head and sat next to me and said, “I’ll tell you what the problem is.”
Daniell taught me a lot that night.
I didn’t have time to change it, but I took notes.
After he finished, I remembered and asked him, “Why are you here?”
Daniell looked at me seriously and said mysteriously, “I came back because I felt you might need my help.”
“Did I tell you in your dream?”
When I finished, I laughed.
Daniell looked at me and laughed, too.
We were lovers more than a month ago, but now we were sitting face to face and close to each other, but we seemed to be separated by something that could no longer be crossed.
Later Daniell told me that one of his friends was ill and lived here. He saw me when he came to see him.
Originally he wanted to peek at what I was doing, but he saw that my design was so poor that he couldn’t help helping me.
It was nearly four o’clock in the second half of the night after we chatted.
I let him sleep here.
I slept in bed. He slept on the sofa.
The next morning, when I got up, Daniell had packed up and bought breakfast.
At breakfast I asked him, “when are you going back?”
Daniell took a look at my computer and said, “I was going back yesterday, but I think you need my help so I have to stay.”
“You taught me a lot yesterday. I took notes. I’ll do the rest myself.”
“No, I’m worried about you.”
“I really can.”
I appreciated what Daniell did for me, but I didn’t want him to do anything for me.
Because we couldn’t be lovers. I shouldn’t give him hope.
After breakfast we went out of the hospital together. As I entered the subway station, he grabbed me and asked, “what’s your relationship with Sean now?”
