It seems that in order for ‘Lawson’ to hear him on the phone to Edward, and deliberately turned on the amplified sound.
“Doodle doo …”
The phone dialed out and beeped a few times before Edward answered the phone, “Brother, is there something wrong?”
“Where are you now?”
Peter held the phone and looked sideways at ‘Lawson’ and spoke to Edward on the other end of the phone.
“It’s in Floedan, a little business to take care of.”
“You’re in Floedan too? What a coincidence. Where are you, I’m coming over to you now.”
Peter deliberately trolled Edward’s words.
“I’m in the hospital now, don’t you come, Floedan heavy rain, difficult to travel.”
The mention of the word hospital, Peter clearly found ‘Lawson’ immediately eyes slightly open, the whole person trembled a little.
“You’re injured? Why are you in the hospital? I’m going over there now to take a look.”
Peter followed his words, wanting to take the opportunity to see what was going on.
“No, it’s just a little personal matter.”
“Okay, then I’ll be in touch.”
Peter hung up the phone and just put the phone on the table, Adriana had already walked up to him and looked at him unblinkingly with strange eyes, “Edward is in the hospital?”
Her brain buzzed and she intuited that Edward must be with Vivian now, otherwise how could he be in the hospital?
“No, I have to go find Vivian now.”
Either way, it’s time to go see Vivian.
“Are you crazy?”
Peter steeply raised his voice and frowned at her, “Want to go out and die?”
He got up, tugged Adriana by the arm, dragged her over to the floor-to-ceiling window, pointed out the torrential rain, and questioned, “Look, look, look at the whole street without a single person on it? Are you sure you’re not going to get yourself killed if you go to Vivian now?”
The bean-sized raindrops thundered on the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the raindrops quickly slid down, converging into a stream and trickling down.
Adriana looked outside, the streets that used to be filled with cars were gone, not to mention the pedestrian traffic.
Because the rainstorm hit, the ground water gradually rose, some vehicles kept moving forward, and finally were stopped by the police.
Because the next several culverts are full of water, there is no way to pass.
Adriana got anxious, “What should we do? Just wait?”
In a fit of anger, she flung Peter’s hand away, “You want to wait, wait yourself. I can’t wait.”
Vivian was entangled with Edward because of her. If she ignores it now, how can she face her?
“Crazy!”
Peter chortled.
Adriana gave him a look, turned around, packed her things and went straight away.
Seeing that he was leaving, Peter took three steps forward and blocked the doorway, “Stop it, all right? It’s impossible to walk outside, can’t you see the water on the road is already half as deep as a wheel?”
I really don’t know what the hell the weather is, how can it rain so much, once in a hundred years.
Adriana took a deep breath and calmed her emotions, “I know you’re doing it for my own good, but I’m worried about Vivian, she …”
“What about me, what do I count as?”
The man’s abrupt question asked Adriana herself was baffled.
Him?
What is he?
How does that sound some … meaningless?
“You … we’re friends.”
Adriana pursed her lips and replied somewhat sheepishly.
“Yes, it is because we are friends that I can’t watch you get killed.”
“What to die? You give me to get out of the way, okay? It’s just water on the road? And not a flood, you crazy ah!”
Adriana is really convinced.
In a fit of rage, she reached out, pulled Peter away, and grabbed the door.
“Lawson? Lawson, stop right there!”
…
Meanwhile, Floedan Hospital.
“Mr. Henderson, Vivian is the one I’m guarding now, don’t you dare touch her!”
In the ward, Raylan blocked in front of Vivian, his icy gaze on Edward standing in front of him, a bitter cold air.
Anne sat on the edge of the bed, hugging Vivian, and kept reassuring her, “Don’t be afraid, it’s okay, it’s okay.”
Vivian clutched Anne’s clothes tightly, buried in her arms, and now and then a pair of timid eyes looked at Edward, not daring to meet his eyes.
Edward gathered the trench coat draped on his shoulders, walked around Raylan, gazed at Vivian sitting on the hospital bed, his thin lips lightly opened, “Vivian, how long are you going to hide, hmm? My child, do you need to ask my opinion if you want to remove it?”
“Who said the kid was yours? That kid is … is Mr. Boone’s.”
Vivian was afraid to admit it, so she just said the kid was ‘Lawson’s’.
When her words fell, three people looked over, strange eyes looked at her heart panic.
Anne is a mouth corner of a wild twitch, think Vivian this silly girl is brain burned?
Now everyone knows that she is Lawson’s real girlfriend, and now that Vivian is pregnant with Lawson’s baby, she, the real ‘girlfriend’, is still here to guard Love rival?
Isn’t it a bit unjustifiable?
“Yes, the baby in her belly is Lawson’s. Edward, are you that happy to be a father?”
Anne looked up slightly and met Edward’s cold, cold eyes.
“Lawson?”
Edward’s eyes narrowed slightly, narrow eyes flashed a cold awning, mixed with unfathomable meaning child, just a look are making people shudder.
“I can prove it.”
Raylan placed his hands in the pockets of his pants, raised his eyebrows, and his playful eyes fell on Edward’s body, “The Henderson Family’s eldest son, isn’t he a cuckold who is still unwilling to let go? Do you think, is it you who are cheap or …”
“My woman, cuckold me. vivian, where did you get the confidence that I would let you go? It seems that what I said to you before was all for nothing. Hmm?”
The entire ward, the atmosphere is tense, confrontation between the two men do not give way to each other, but can be evenly matched, to make the victory more elusive.
Can’t decide who will be the winner at the end.
“Raylan, get out of the way!”
Edward’s face was expressionless, and a gun appeared in his hand at some point and was placed against Raylan’s forehead, mercilessly.
The cold muzzle of the gun, aimed at Raylan’s head, was a terrible feeling, yet incredibly familiar.
He raised his hand leisurely, his long fingers flicking away his pistol, “Mr. Henderson, are you challenging my boundaries?”
A word from the thin and thick lips slowly spit out, invisible with a little harsh breath, as if the next moment the two will open a fight.
Vivian clenched her lips and turned pale with fear, but also knew she could not drag anyone else down.
“Stop! Mr. Powell, Anne, you go out first, I want to talk to him.”
She gathered enough courage to sit up straight and gently leaned on the head of the bed, pulling the bedding over her body and pretending to be calm.
“Vivian?”
Anne called out with some unease.
Vivian shook his head, took Anne’s hand and said, “There are some things you can’t escape from, it’s better for me to handle it myself. Believe me, I can definitely handle it.”
