In the night, Everett stood on the balcony, looking into the distance, holding a glass in his hand.
But there was no wine in the glass, and all of it was on the ground, and the glass was cracked.
The holes were as ferocious and terrifying as centipedes.
His eyes were dark, without any light, as deep as hell.
Suddenly, his phone rang, breaking the cold silence.
His eyeballs moved slightly, and all the expressions and emotions within them returned in an instant.
He tossed his glass into the trash can and took his phone.
When he saw the name on the screen, he paused for two seconds and answered.
"Everett, are you asleep?"
A drunken voice came, and Everett raised his eyelids.
"Where are you?"
"Where am I?"
"Let me see.Where am I?"
"Oh...I'm at home.I'm at your house.Are you coming back tonight?"
"You're drunk."
"Hehe, am I drunk? I'm not drunk.I miss you, Everett.Come back now."
"I'll have your assistant pick you up."
"No! I don't want my assistant.I want you to pick me up! Everett, let's get married.Let's get married and
have a child.Now is the right time.Don't you want a child? Don't you want to be a father?"
"Everett, why aren't you talking? Don't you love me? If you love me, why don't you marry me?"
"I'll call your assistant."
He then hung up the phone.
Melody heard the beep in the phone and laughed loudly.
She picked up her glass and finished it in one gulp, then threw it on the floor.
Bang! The glass broke into pieces.
"Everett, you really don't love me anymore, hehe..."
Olivia hung up the phone and closed her eyes.
Brayden bought a lot of things, food and stuff.
The doctor said she needed to stay in the hospital for at least a week.
She needed a lot of things.
Olivia heard the sound and opened her eyes.
Brayden said apologetically, "Did I wake you up?"
"No, I wasn't asleep.’ The wound on her hand was hurting, and so was her shoulder blade.
Brayden saw her complexion.
"Are you OK?"
"I am fine."
So she was not feeling well.
"I'm sorry.’ He shouldn't have been so impulsive.
Olivia curved her lips.
"You've apologized many times today.Can you say something else?"
Brayden smiled bitterly.
He wanted to say something else, but when he saw her pale face, he didn't know what to say.
Olivia asked, "Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry.’
"Yes!"
Brayden immediately brought out the food.
"I bought some light porridge and dishes.Have some tonight.Tomorrow I'll go and see what's
nutritious.I'll ask them to cook."
"It's okay.Simple dishes are good."
Olivia ate some, and Brayden ate some briefly.
At night, Olivia was in much pain, but she was wide awake.
She thought a lot, about the present, about tomorrow, about the future.
It was only after midnight that she fell asleep.
But she didn't sleep long before she was woken up.
She opened her eyes and saw Brayden get up and go out.
She called out, "Brayden."
Brayden heard her voice and immediately came over.
"Did I wake you up?"
Olivia looked around the ward.
The door was closed, so she could not see the outside, but she could hear the sound outside.
There seemed to be a lot of people, and it was very noisy.
"What happened outside?"
"I don't know.I'll go and see now.’
"OK."
When Brayden went out and opened the door, Olivia heard a name.
Melody.
