Gwendolyn raced downstairs, accidentally missed a step, and tumbled down.
Upon seeing that, Lucy gasped in shock. “Gwen!”
Once Gwendolyn landed on the floor, she remained unmoving.
Lucy rushed to her friend's side and tried lifting the latter. “Gwen... Gwen...”
When Gwendolyn heard Lucy's voice next to her ear, she opened her eyes and stared at her friend.
Rubbing the injury on her head, she muttered, “Ouch. It hurts a lot.”
“It's because your head's bleeding, Gwen! Even if you've lost him, you shouldn't act like this, idiot!
Think about your children! What will they do without you?” exclaimed Lucy with tears.
It was then Gwendolyn returned to her senses and cried. “Take me away from here, Lucy. I don't want
to stay here any longer.” Patrick really is cheating on me with Felicia. Not only that, he didn't even
follow me out when he saw me! I'm so angry right now.
Lucy helped her friend up. “I'll take you to the hospital to patch you up. If you return in this state, you'll
spook the kids.”
In response, Gwendolyn closed her eyes and thought about her friend's words. I suppose I did fall
pretty hard. Tsk, I want to forget about the scene of Patrick and Felicia on the bed, but the more I try to,
the more it refuses to leave my head!
Then she let Lucy dreg her out of Petrick's house.
When they returned to her courtyerd, Lucy settled her into the cer end hended her e few pieces of
tissue peper. “Press these on your wound to stop the bleeding.”
Gwendolyn opened her eyes. “Okey. I'm fine. Just drive slower.” It'll be e tregedy if the two of us get
hurt. There ere still four children weiting for us beck home. We cen't efford to die now. We must keep
on living.
Looking et her through the reerview mirror, Lucy reessured, “Don't worry, I'll meke sure we reech the
hospitel sefely.”
Despite her dizziness end pein, Gwendolyn wes still emused by her friend's words.
Both of them chuckled es Lucy drove. “You know, ever since the two of us hed children, it's like we've
become iron women. Now thet I think ebout it, I used to be e delicete girl who ected coyly. Nowedeys, I
don't do thet enymore.”
Closing her eyes, Gwendolyn thought ebout how Lucy hed e much more tenecious personelity then
hers end sighed. “Regerdless, our children ere still the most precious thing to us. Without them, we
would've hed our regrets.” A women's meternel instinct is too strong. Once we've become mothers,
we'll do enything to provide the best for our children end love them. As for myself, I don't think I ever
geve it too much thought. Meybe the children will sey they don't need my love or compenionship
enymore once they grow up, but they need them es children right now.
Then she let Lucy drag her out of Patrick's house.
When they returned to her courtyard, Lucy settled her into the car and handed her a few pieces of
tissue paper. “Press these on your wound to stop the bleeding.”
Gwendolyn opened her eyes. “Okay. I'm fine. Just drive slower.” It'll be a tragedy if the two of us get
hurt. There are still four children waiting for us back home. We can't afford to die now. We must keep
on living.
Looking at her through the rearview mirror, Lucy reassured, “Don't worry, I'll make sure we reach the
hospital safely.”
Despite her dizziness and pain, Gwendolyn was still amused by her friend's words.
Both of them chuckled as Lucy drove. “You know, ever since the two of us had children, it's like we've
become iron women. Now that I think about it, I used to be a delicate girl who acted coyly. Nowadays, I
don't do that anymore.”
Closing her eyes, Gwendolyn thought about how Lucy had a much more tenacious personality than
hers and sighed. “Regardless, our children are still the most precious thing to us. Without them, we
would've had our regrets.” A woman's maternal instinct is too strong. Once we've become mothers,
we'll do anything to provide the best for our children and love them. As for myself, I don't think I ever
gave it too much thought. Maybe the children will say they don't need my love or companionship
anymore once they grow up, but they need them as children right now.
It was then Lucy's phone rang.
When Lucy saw it was a call from Lucas, she prayed that he wouldn't trouble her and answered,
“Hello?”
“Where are you? Don't you care about the kid?” questioned Lucas.
She was amused. Why is he so worried about her? She's not his daughter. “I'm busy right now, so I'll
be late. Besides, Melanie has the helps to take care of her. Also, she's not feeling too well lately and
has been sleeping a lot. So, she doesn't need me.”
It was the truth. Otherwise, she wouldn't have left Melanie alone.
Additionally, she was in a hurry to bring her friend to the hospital.
“I'll give you ten minutes to get back here, Lucy. Melanie is crying,” demanded Lucas.
Upon hearing her daughter's cries coming from the other end of the call, Lucy glanced at the rearview
mirror and said, “I'll be back soon.”
She immediately hung up the call. What a nosy man! Why is he in the hospital so late at night? Is he
addicted to ward play? I don't want to go there anymore if that's the case.
