He thought about it, but he still went to call the doctor.
What Finn didn’t expect was that Aoife would have an accident just as he left for a moment.
Finn went out and brought Aoife’s attending doctor over, briefly explaining Aoife’s situation of not being able to see.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the ward, like something falling and breaking.
Oh no! Finn hurried into the ward, and what he saw shocked his visual senses. For a moment, he felt as if he had been paralyzed and couldn’t move.
“Aoife, what are you doing?”
While Finn was away, Aoife searched the cabinet beside her, unable to see with her eyes. She wanted to feel if there was a fruit knife or something on the cabinet, but accidentally knocked over the water kettle on top.
Her hand was burnt, her body trembled, and she fell off the bed without Finn’s care. This time, she fell directly from the bed without Finn’s supervision.
The water kettle rolled off the cabinet and onto the floor, spilling hot water everywhere. Aoife fell on it, and her exposed arms were scalded red by the hot water.
It hurt a lot, but compared to what Finn had done to her, it was nothing. In addition to the water kettle, the glass on the cabinet was also knocked down and shattered. Aoife felt for the sharp shards on the floor.
Carefully lifting one up, she touched the sharpest part, cutting her palm on the sharp edges, and the blood oozed uncomfortably from her palm.
To prevent her hand from shaking, to prevent the shards from slipping away from her, and to avoid being snatched by someone else, Aoife could only grip harder.
With her eyes unable to see, she could only rely on her ears and senses, hearing footsteps outside, Aoife turned her head in the direction of the sound, her empty eyes focused on the door.
Finn looked at the glass shards in Aoife’s hand, his gaze sharp as a knife, and he said in a heavy tone, “Aoife, I command you to drop the glass in your hand! You know, I have a bad temper, and you can’t bear the consequences of angering me.”
She already couldn’t bear it, and Aoife didn’t move, even under Finn’s gaze, she slightly pushed the sharp glass shard towards her neck.
“Finn, do you hate me a lot?” Only hate would break a person’s life halfway, leaving them trapped in this prison, trampled upon day after day!
Finn looked at the blood on Aoife’s neck, “Aoife, I don’t hate you.”
He called her softly, and Finn realized that his voice was trembling uncontrollably. He tried his best to suppress it, but he couldn’t suppress the escalating fear pouring out. Trembling in fear, Finn took a small step forward, but even this slight movement was noticed by Aoife.
“Don’t come over!”
Finn could only stand still and gently coax Aoife in a voice like comforting a child, “Okay, okay, I won’t come over. Put down the glass in your hand, you’re bleeding, I’ll bring a doctor to check on you…”
No matter what he said, Aoife still held onto the glass shard against her own artery.
The false tenderness in Finn’s voice made Aoife feel nauseous.
“Finn, how can you not hate me? Wouldn’t you have tortured me to the point of being all bruised if you didn’t hate me? Wouldn’t you have made me lose my child if you didn’t hate me? I really don’t understand what unforgivable things I have done to be ruthlessly trampled on by you time and time again. I have tried my best every time, have you ever thought that you would not stop until you have banished me to the depths of hell?”
“Finn… I’m really in pain… so much pain…” Aoife choked with tears and said, “The pain from being forced down on the bed by you, the pain from being strangled and humiliated over and over by you, the pain from being pressed on the operating table and losing my baby… I don’t cry out in pain, but it doesn’t mean I’m not in pain… I am a person… a living person, Finn. I am not a machine without feelings, I cry, I bleed, I despair… I can also go crazy…”
Aoife cried and then smiled, “You don’t know how much I loved you before, loved you to the point of losing myself… but you can’t abuse me like this just because of my past love for you, right? If loving you is wrong, then I’ll change it…” The glass in her hand pierced a little more, and she felt the warm stickiness on her fingertips.
Listening to Aoife’s words, Finn’s heart grew colder and colder, and he admitted that he was starting to be afraid.
It turned out that when a person is afraid, they really can’t concentrate or think calmly on a solution.
Finn could only reach out his hand, exerting all his efforts to speak gently, “Aoife, as I said, if something happens to you, I will make others suffer along with you. Have you thought about the Jiang family? Don’t you care about them? As long as you are fine, I will spare them, and I won’t even care about who the baby in your belly belongs to.”
Yes, Aoife cares about everyone who is good to her, but she also knows that it makes no difference if she puts down the glass in her hand – whether she lives or dies.
“Aoife, you better calm down. This is a hospital, a place specially designed to save lives. Are you sure that the glass in your hand can kill you instantly? Even if you cut your artery, as long as you get treated promptly, you won’t die!”
The tears in her eyes were like an endless stream, even if blind and in pain, she couldn’t help but shed tears. Aoife softly laughed, “I remember you said my virtue is cleanliness. You can’t let me go because of this face of mine…”
