After briefly treating the wounds, the ambulance had arrived. The four of them accompanied Miguel to the hospital.
His family also heard the news and came to the hospital.
Miguel was receiving treatment.
Camilo was panting with a thin sweat on his forehead, and his parents were filled with anxiety.
Albina looked at the three of them and approached, her face full of guilt:
-I’m sorry, Dr. Aguila was wounded to save me.
The Eagles had a complicated look on their faces. They knew better than to be angry with Albina, but this incident had really started with her. Miguel was already suffering for psychological reasons, and now he was physically injured.
But they also understood that Miguel’s injury had nothing to do with Albina, after all, Albina had never liked Miguel from start to finish. It was her son she liked unilaterally.
Camilo patted her on the shoulder to comfort her:
-Albina, you have done nothing wrong. The culprit was that crazy woman.
Albina lowered her head, her eyes red-rimmed as she blamed herself a lot.
Umberto stood there, holding her hand tightly and consoling her silently.
Soon the doctor came out and his family immediately gathered around him:
-Doctor, how is Miguel?
-He’s fine, it’s only a superficial wound. The first aid measures were well done and the wound was treated in time. He will be fine after a few days of medicine.
Albina breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
Macos felt great admiration for Albina:
-Thanks Albina. We stood around and panicked not knowing what to do…..
The Eagles froze for a moment at these words.
Albina quickly tugged on Macos’ sleeve, signaling him to stop talking.
She knew in her heart that Macos was trying to help her because Los Aguila had not treated her very well so far. But it was clear to her that Miguel had been repeatedly wronged by her, and if she had been in his place, she surely would not have been able to smile. It was already a sign that Los Aguila was polite and sensible for not getting angry with her.
Macos shut his mouth, but Los Aguila kept walking toward Albina.
Miguel’s father sighed, in a soft voice:
-I’m sorry, we had a bad attitude.
Miguel’s mother also apologized.
Albina waved her hand hurriedly:
-No, I’m the one who should apologize. I must also thank Dr. Aguila.
Seeing her sincere and frightened look, The Aguila’s felt even more uncomfortable in their hearts.
Especially, Miguel’s mother was the one who loved Miguel the most, and during his illness, she had complained about Albina and lost her temper a lot.
But Albina really had a good character. Her rejection of Miguel was also for his sake. If she had lied to him to get him well, no one knew what would happen the moment the lie was discovered.
Looking at her delicate, pretty little face, Miguel’s mother couldn’t even be angry.
Camilo was relieved to see this and turned his head to look at Umberto. Because of Miguel’s business, he had not met with him for a long time.
He was about to speak to him when he suddenly became aware that Umberto’s left arm had tightened against his side and was very stiff.
Attentively, he paid special attention to it and suddenly noticed that Umberto’s left sleeve had burn marks, which were invisible if you didn’t look closely because of the black suit he was wearing.
-Umberto, your arm is injured, go and take care of it.
This anxious voice attracted the stares of the people around him.
Especially Albina, who looked anxious and frightened, rushed to Umberto’s side and gently grabbed his left hand, fearing to hurt him.
-Why didn’t you tell me when you were hurt.
It was Umberto who had just subdued Lila. Supposedly he had been splashed by the residual acid in the bottle at that moment and was injured.
Albina’s voice was hoarse with anxiety, and she hurried to ask him to take off his jacket and let the doctor treat his wound.
The tears that had just been stopped flowed again, crying so much that her eyelids were red.
-Don’t cry -Umberto smiled and brushed the tears away with his right hand.
As soon as these words came out, Albina cried even more and was speechless.
The doctor had already approached and removed his jacket, to find that the sleeve of the shirt he was wearing inside had also corroded.
Albina stood watching as the doctor cut off Umberto’s sleeve, and could vaguely see the clear red wound.
-Umberto, if it hurts, just grab my hand and bite my arm, don’t be afraid, I’ll be by your side,” Albina said, eagerly stretching out her arm.
Her skin was white and tender, not to say biting, even if he grabbed her a little harder, Umberto couldn’t even do it.
-It doesn’t hurt, it only hurts my heart when you cry.
The doctor had already started to clean the wound. Umberto’s body was tense, but he still showed a smile to Albina.
-You’re still smiling right now! Scream if it hurts,” Albina said, her voice cracking and unable to say more, holding his right hand in one hand and stroking his hair with the other arm.
Umberto rubbed his neck against hers.
Macos and Ariana stood in the doorway, looking at the intimate appearance of the two, embarrassed.
The three Eagle Family members stood behind them, watching the scene.
The Eagles looked at each other and sighed:
-It seems you don’t stand a chance my son.
Only without love could one be so sensible. If they worried too much, they wouldn’t.
Albina was able to calmly give Miguel first aid, but panicked when she saw Umberto’s wounds. Then, Los Aguila understood everything.
Umberto’s wounds were treated and bandaged.
The doctor instructed him to take precautions:
-Your wound was not treated in time and it is something serious. You must take good care of it afterwards. Don’t eat spicy food, don’t get wet, and come to the hospital to change the medicine in time. When you have recovered, I will give you medicine to dissipate your scars.
Albina looked at Umberto’s firm white arm, and said ruefully, -I could leave a scar. Such a beautiful skin, what a pity to leave a scar.
Umberto gave her a smack on the head:
-I’m a man, it’s okay to have a scar, as long as you are not hurt.
-Stop talking,” Albina gave him a look. One-armed president, when you go back to the company, Ruben will laugh at you.
Umberto gave a cold smile.
“The guy wouldn’t dare!”
-A hand doesn’t stop me from hugging you -Umberto stood up and pulled Albina to her feet-. Let’s go check on Miguel.
In the living room, Miguel was lying on the bed.
His back was injured and he couldn’t even lie down, so he could only lie on his back. He was having a hard time, but he didn’t look particularly uncomfortable.
When he saw Albina and the others come in, he even smiled at them.
Because of his illness, his face had a look of weakness, accompanied by his gentle, handsome features, which made people feel sorry for him.
-How are you feeling? Are you still in pain?
Albina didn’t have to bother craning her neck to ease the gaze of the people, who squatted by the bed and looked at him with concern.
She was a little close. Looking at her pretty features, Miguel was a bit unnatural and averted his gaze slightly:
-It’s okay, the injury wasn’t serious. I guess I’ll be able to recover in a couple of days.
-I’m sorry I hurt you.
Albina lowered her head, biting her lip and showing guilt.
Miguel laughed lightly:
-It’s okay. You’re a girl, it would only hurt if I splashed that highly concentrated acid in your face.
