Kate curved her lips and forced a smile. She looked very weak.
"The doctors never tell me the truth. They always told me that there is still hope, but I know my own
body." Kate sighed and leaned her head against the back of the chair, her eyes dulled.
Seeing Kate being so sick, Summer felt a little sorry for her.
A woman was most energetic and attractive in her thirties. A rich young lady like Kate who was born
into a rich family should have been in her prime now, if she hadn't suddenly fallen ill.
Summer had always felt sorry for Kate ever since she heard Kate had cancer.
Looking back at things that had happened in the past few years, Summer felt as if it was a dream.
Summer looked at Kate and said slowly, "If the doctors said there is still hope, then there must be
hope."
Kate laughed self-deprecatingly, "Shouldn't you wish me to be dead?"
"I'm not like you." She wasn't Kate, and she wouldn't hit her when she was already down.
The self-deprecating look on Kate's face became even more obvious. She shook her head and said, "I
used to look down on you, but now I realize that you've been living a better life than mine."
Summer said tonelessly, "You have Bruce."
Summer noticed Kate's eyes which had been dulled lit up for a moment after she mentioned Bruce.
The hope in her eyes was like sparks of fire which flickered but then went out.
"Bruce has been sincere to you. You should take good care of yourself, even just for him." Half of the
reason why Summer said that was because she was saying it for Bruce. Bruce had helped her, and
she wanted to return the favor.
Kate lowered her eyes slightly to avoid talking about Bruce to Summer. She asked, "How are things
between you and Leonardo? You come all the way here not just to visit me, do you?"
Just like Kate who didn't want to talk about Bruce, Summer just ignored Bruce and replied, "That's
right. I didn't come here just to see you."
Kate was not surprised. She knew Summer from before. Summer might look weak, but she was
actually a person with strong personality.
She changed into a relaxed sitting position and said, "Just say it if there's anything you want. If it's
something I can still do now, I will help you by all means. After all, I've... done something bad to you."
"When Amber was abroad, she didn't just study hard and work hard, did she?" Staring at Kate,
Summer said in a dry tone.
Hearing that, Kate looked at Summer in surprise, "You ... you want to do something to Amber?"
Leonardo did not care about her after he had sent her abroad for the treatment, and nor would he tell
her about his latest news. Therefore, Kate still did not know that Amber and Leonardo were already
together, or that Summer and Leonardo had become completely strangers now.
Summer did not beat around the bush. She admitted straightforwardly, "Yes."
Although Kate and Amber used to be friends, they were never really close. The friendship between
them was not so pure. They became friends only because they had similar family background and
social status.
Ever since Leonardo sent Kate to this country, she had also broken up with Amber.
Kate hesitated for a moment before she said, "People in our circle know how to have fun. Amber has
mentioned a special club to me for a few times ..."
She glanced at Summer as she paused.
Summer took the hint and said, "You mean an adult club?"
Kate nodded somewhat awkwardly.
"I see." Summer had heard about that kind of clubs before, but she thought it was just gossips. She
had never thought that Amber would also be so open-minded.
"I can try to contact the club for you ..." Seeing that the way Summer looking at her had changed, Kate
explained hurriedly, "I went there once, but I didn't play with them."
Summer nodded to express her understanding.
Kate was a girl with high self-esteem. She would not fall for any random guy just for fun.
At that moment, a doctor knocked on the door and walked in, "Miss Kate, how are you feeling today?"
Kate replied listlessly, "Same as yesterday."
When the doctor saw Summer, he said apologetically, "I'm sorry. I didn't know your friend has come,
but it's time for your check-up."
Kate looked at Summer and said, "Come here again tonight."
Summer stayed there for a moment, but then she turned around and went out. She even closed the
door on her way out.
Kate probably didn't want others to see how she was examined by a doctor in bed. No matter how sick
she was, self-esteem was often more important than anything.
The servant who was taking care of Kate was also outside. Seeing a beautiful woman like Summer,
she couldn't help but go up to talk to Summer. Basically, it was all about Kate's illness.
"Miss Kate is always in great pain. She can't sleep well or eat well most of the time. She has been here
for half a year, but the doctors don't dare to do operation on her. There is too little hope. It's already
pretty good that we can keep her in her current physical condition ..."
Summer began to ponder as she listened to the servant's blather. If she had cancer like Kate did one
day, what would she be like?
The moment that question popped up, Summer perished it. That would never happen, as she still had
Rosie and Jessica.
After a long time, the doctor went out.
Seeing that Summer was still there, the doctor smiled and said, "Are you Miss Kate's friend?"
Before Summer nodded, the doctor had already counted Summer as Kate's friends, "Miss Kate's
mentality is not so good. I am worried about her mood more than her illness. Almost no one has come
to see her. You must be a good friend since you are here. I hope you can persuade her to be
optimistic." The kind-hearted doctor really wanted to cure Kate's illness.
Summer nodded.
After the doctor left, Summer pushed the door open and walked in again.
Kate was staring blankly at the ceiling in bed. She turned around when she heard footsteps, and she
was surprise to see that it was Summer, "Why didn't you leave?"
"I have nothing else to do for the time being." Summer sat down beside the bed.
The atmosphere was very gloomy, and the two of them had nothing to say.
They hadn't been friends in the past, and they weren't enemies now. So they didn't even know how to
define their relationship.
"You've just arrived here, haven't you? Have you eaten?" Kate was probably not used to caring for
others by asking these questions, so the look on her face was somewhat unnatural.
"No, I haven't." Summer was so absorbed in her business that she even forgot to eat. If Kate hadn't
mentioned it suddenly, she would have forgotten that she was hungry.
Kate called the servant over and said, "Cook something for her."
The servant then went to cook for Summer.
Kate suddenly said, "The food they cook may not be as delicious as yours."
"It's fine." Summer was a little surprised that Kate still remembered she could
cook.
