A figure soon stood in front of her. “Halle, why do you still pester me?” A cold and familiar sound came to her ears. Halle and Ronan, two people in dispute met again in a day.
No wonder his tone was so harsh. Did he think she was trying to seduce him?
With her hands leaning on the ground, she stood up stubbornly despite of her wounded leg.
“Halle, why are you so careless?” Jaiden caught up with her and tried to help her stand up. “I send you to the hospital for a check.” Jaiden said to Halle without looking at Ronan. It was a good chance to get close to Halle and Jaiden would not let it go.
“Thank you. Let’s go.” Halle did not look at Ronan but let Jaiden help her to walk forward limply, watching whether there was a taxi passing by.
Her leg was very painful and both Jaiden and she did not realize that the blood was dripping from her leg to the ground.
Looking at the blood on the ground, Ronan felt confused. She even did not look at him all the time.
Did he say something out of line?
He suddenly remembered the way she left his office. She looked like a wounded deer, and there was something different about her from the women who had tried to have a close relation with him.
Perhaps he misunderstood her.
When Ronan was watching Halle get into the taxi with the man who was supporting her, his phone rang.
“What’s up? Finn.” It was his secretary. There must be something wrong since he was calling in such a hurry.
“President, I received the diagnosis from America.”
“What’s the conclusion on the diagnosis?”
“It said that your grandfather is in very bad condition and will probably pass away soon.”
“I get it.” His heart sank because of the news and then he hung up the phone.
He still had a meeting to attend. He could not be free until the meeting was concluded.
He had to plan ahead for his grandfather’s funeral.
Ronan shook his head and jumped into the car again.
Since there was a man taking care of Halle, he didn’t have to worry about her. He must have been out of his mind to kiss her that night.
She and Helle looked so alike, and their lips and eyes looked alike, but unfortunately, she was not Helle.
The car sped to the exhibition center; he will be a protagonist today, so he can’t be late.
Halle was sitting in the car. Seeing the car turning a corner, she let go of Jaiden’s hand, and then said to the driver: “please stop here, thank you.”
“Halle, what are you doing?”
“I want you to get out of the car.”
“No, I don’t.” He looked at her with his charming eyes. Girls must be attracted by his eyes. To be honest, he is as handsome as the man in a painting.
“If you don’t get off, I will.” She moved to the door of the taxi, as if preparing to get off.
“Halle, your leg is bleeding.” When she moved the body, Jaiden found the situation and stretched out his hand to pull her.
“Never mind.” She said and shook off the hand of Jaiden.
She was so unlucky these two days that she met Ronan again.
“Halle, don’t be so hostile to me. I promised that I will pay the fifty thousand yuan back to you in a few days. It is my father’s fault to take the money.”
It had nothing to do with money. She did not like him at all. Since that was the case, she should not leave some leeway for him.
“I don’t like you, so please get out of the car.” He was a good man, but she had to be ruthless. She pressed the handle and opened the door of the car. Then the wind blew in.
The driver was so frightened that he stopped the car.
“Get out of the car.” She said in a cold tone. As soon as she thought of what Issac said in a mocking tone, she would get annoyed. Since she never thought about having anything to do with Jaiden, why should she bear that false reputation?
Jaiden sighed with resignation and said, “Halle, take good care of yourself, I’m leaving.”
“Which hospital would you like to go, Miss?” the driver asked.
Halle looked at the scene out of the window and replied softly, “Go to T University please.” It was only a minor injury and she really didn’t want to go to the hospital. She needed money now. She must return the fifty thousand yuan to Natalie, even if selling blood.
Besides the tutoring work in the evening, she had to get another job, as long as it can match her school time.
The driver took a look at her and said, “Miss, your leg got hurt, why not go to the hospital? I’ll take you to the hospital.”
“No, thank you.” She insisted. Although the driver was a stranger, he was better than Ronan who did not apologize for the accident but said that she was going to seduce him.
“Girl, it’s normal for a young couple to quarrel. It seems that your boyfriend really care about you. When I drove away just now, he kept looking in the direction of the car.”
She knew that. Jaiden has been courting her for four years.
She shook her head and said, “I don’t like him.”
“Well.” Hearing her words, the driver did not say anything and take her to the T University.
After getting out of the taxi, Halle limped to the direction of the dormitory. Her leg was no longer bleeding. There should be nothing serious. She told herself to ignore other people’s gaze and comments and just do what she should do. The tree-lined path leading to the dormitory was in front of her. In the past, she had walked on this road with Hunter countless times. This road also witnessed her beautiful dreams. But now her dreams shattered. That man no longer belonged to her.
They broke up and he even gave her the break-up fee. Perhaps he did not want her to pester him anymore. She felt a stabbing pain in her leg. Halle couldn’t stand the pain any longer. She jumped to the lawn beside the road and sat down.
She tore the leg of his trousers apart carefully and the blood had congealed. Her leg was red and swollen which made her so painful. It was a serious hit.
“Halle, How did you get hurt? Let me take you to the hospital.”
In such a short time, someone stood in front of her. It was Hunter. His voice was as gentle as before and she felt that her heart was much more painful than her leg.
She saw his white and slender hands. She used to like watching him playing the guitar. What a beautiful scene it was! But looking at his hands at this moment, she was not as excited as before.
She turned her face away to avoid eye contact with him. Then she struggled to stand up and limped towards the dormitory.
“I’m sorry, Halle.” Hunter suddenly said. His voice made her stop walking. Can an apology explain what happened in the past? She shook her head and walked on without saying a word.
“Halle, Natalie gave the money to your mother on purpose and I was told afterwards. You don’t need to pay it back.”
