Heavy rain stopped, and a flurry of drizzle, mixed with the cold winter wind hunting, cold to the bone.
This bizarre weather, so cold days actually so heavy rainstorm, too abnormal.
Standing at the side of the road, I do not know if the wind is too cold, blowing her too cold, or the heart is too cold, freezing her straight shiver, hands around the chest, wrapped tightly in a windbreaker.
A cab came by, she reached out and waved, pulled open the door and got in.
“Master, go to Waverly Hospital.”
As she spoke, she couldn’t help but tilt her head and look at the Asnana Hotel building.
It seems that through the thick walls, you can see Peter and Sandra sitting in the presidential suite.
The whole person’s soul is lost.
Sitting in the cab, she looked out the window at the neon flashing, colorful, memories back to nine years ago, she and Peter first love, for money, for Peter to have children.
The time between the past and the present is fast and yet slow.
After so many years of going round and round in one person, you end up back at square one.
“Guy? Guy? Here we are, time to get off.”
The cab driver called out a few times, Adriana finally cleared her eyes and pulled out of her memory, pulling out a hundred dollars and shoving it to the cab driver, “Don’t bother looking for it.”
Push the door and get out of the car and walk into the hospital.
Shaking his head and waving away the messy memories in his head, he took out his cell phone and called Raylan.
“Raylan, where are you?”
“Ward two-three-zero-two on the twenty-third floor of the inpatient unit.”
“Okay, I’ll be right over.”
Hanging up the phone, Adriana immediately went upstairs.
He found Vivian’s ward on the twenty-third floor and saw Raylan standing in the doorway from afar.
She walked over and looked at the handsome, hard type of man in front of her, a familiar face that comforted her.
Despite the smile, Raylan, as smart as he is, noticed Adriana’s haggard, forlorn eyes with just a glance.
“What’s wrong with you?”
He wrinkled his brow and asked.
Adriana raised an eyebrow, “Me? Not much, probably didn’t sleep well yesterday.”
“You’re lying.”
He hit the nail on the head.
People who are too smart to get along with can be very stressful.
Because you can’t lie, once you open your mouth, you’re bound to be caved in.
She smiled bitterly, “Raylan, can you please stop interrogating me like a prisoner? It’s very stressful.”
“Say, what’s going on?”
The man’s face chilled for a few moments, as if he would not rest until Adriana gave a reasonable answer.
“I … am fine. Just anxious to come over and see Vivian. how is she doing and when did Edward leave?”
Adriana changes the subject.
The effect was very successful.
Raylan sighed and said: “Edward company seems to have had an accident, gone. But Vivian is not in a good mood after the miscarriage, the whole person closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, not saying a word. It seems …”
“I got it, Raylan, thanks. It’s getting late, so hurry back and get some rest, I’ll treat you to dinner later.”
She thanked Raylan from the bottom of her heart.
Without him, this time Vivian would have been miserable.
“It’s a small thing, don’t take it to heart.”
“Hmm.”
Adriana answered, pushed the door open and walked in, Anne saw her coming and immediately got up, “Adri, you’re here?”
Raylan knows her true identity, so there is no need to deliberately conceal it, it is all her own people, she is very relieved.
“Anne, hard work.”
Walk up and give Anne a big hug.
“What’s the word? Vivian is also my friend, okay?”
She teased.
With a relieved smile, Adriana walked over to the bedside, looked at Vivian, whose back was turned to her, and turned back to Anne and Raylan, giving them a look to go out for a moment.
They both looked at each other and the two of them walked out of the ward.
Adriana pulled over a companion chair, sat on it, and softly asked, “Did you want to keep the baby? Are you blaming us?”
She once had the same tangled feelings as Vivian, so she can especially understand Vivian’s feelings.
Vivian, who was lying on the hospital bed, moved, slowly turned around, looked at Adriana and said, “Ms. Hale, I don’t know, it’s just that as I felt the baby slowly peeling away from me, I regretted and wanted to keep it. I felt so cruel, why did I let an innocent little life go before it could see the colorfulness of the world?”
“Vivian, I understand how you feel, but silly girl, you are still young, that child is Edward’s, you really can’t have children. Understand?”
She reassured Vivian with a long speech, “If Edward is good to you and willing to marry you, or even if he is willing to give you money and not torment you, I agree that you should have the baby, because with Anne and me, we will help you take care of the baby together.
But you guys are in a bad situation, Edward is so much of a jerk, and you’ll just be a thread that will be cut forever if you have another kid.”
Adriana herself has experienced too much, some things are more clear than Anne and Vivian are to see.
She is not willing to let Vivian and Anne repeat the path she has taken.
As girlfriends, like brothers, she must be responsible for the two girls who did not grow up.
“Ms. Hale, I know you’re doing this for my own good. But I … I …”
She sucked her nose and cried in aggravation.
Adriana looked at it with pain in her heart.
Pulling out a few tissues from the bedside table, she wiped her tears and soothed her, “Don’t cry, it’s over. Want to have children, you’re still young, you can have them anytime.”
“Mmmmmmmmm, I know.”
She nodded with red eyes, then bit her lip with her shell teeth and gazed at Adriana with red eyes, “Ms. Hale, I … don’t want to go, I want to go back to Waverly.”
“Why?”
Adriana’s thick eyebrows flashed and her face sank a few notches, “It’s easy to leave now. And later you can get rid of Edward, perhaps you stay abroad for a few years, when Edward’s novelty is over, you will never have contact with each other again.
He is the eldest son of the Henderson Family, and in a few years he will definitely get married, and after you leave, he will also start a family, and after that you will come back, and naturally you will not be bothered. Isn’t that good?”
All the back roads, Adriana has already helped Vivian to figure out.
Who knew Vivian was firm and shook her head, “No, Ms. Hale, I’ve thought this through. I’m not leaving, I won’t leave, and I’m not going to leave.”
“Why?”
Such a firm attitude made Adriana’s heart puzzled.
“Because … my mom is still in Waverly. came back in the first place because I thought I could take care of my mom, and I couldn’t leave for her sake.”
“You can get mom to go to LA, huh?”
“No, it’s useless . Edward strength is outstanding, even if I hide to the end of the earth, what is the use? Escape can not solve the problem, I … just want to face it frankly.”
Frankly facing Edward’s threats, living a life worse than death, but having to linger for the sake of his mother.
“Have you thought about it?”
There is some truth to Vivian’s words.
Everyone has their own way of choosing life. Vivian chose the life she wanted, and Adriana, although she was her best friend, could not influence her decision and choice, but could only respect it.
