Scarlett nodded her head, "Thanks." Joseph glanced behind Scarlett and then asked, "Ms. Reed, didn't you bring any luggage?" “No.” Joseph seemed to want to say something else, but Scarlett interrupted him, "Let's go straight to the hospital." Hearing Scarlett's words, Joseph didn't say anything else. He led Scarlett to the parking lot. The car drove out of the airport and headed straight for the hospital.
An hour later, the car arrived at the hospital.
Scarlett didn't know where Chloe's room was, so Joeseph led her there.
When Scarlett arrived at Chloe's room, Chris was already there.
Chloe's secretary was standing outside the ward. The secretary was surprised to see Scarlett, "Ms. Reed?" Scarlett nodded to her, "Secretary Emerson, how is Ms. Wilson doing?" The secretary shook her head, "Ms. Wilson was awake this morning, but she can't speak now. The doctor just gave her a shot of morphine. The doctor said it should be one of these days." Scarlett felt so sorry. The secretary then asked, "Ms. Reed, you must be tired from the travel. Have you had lunch? Do you need to get srest?" Scarlett shook her head. She did feel tired, but she had no appetite, let alone rest and sleep.
"Letsee Ms. Wilson first." "OK." Scarlett walked into the room and saw Chris standing by his mother's bed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChris heard the door open, he turned around and saw Scarlett. His dark eyes flickered. He asked, "Have you had lunch?" Scarlett shook her head. She walked to him and checked on Chloe who was lying in the bed.
It had just been a month. The day Scarlett left, she met Chloe at the airport. Chloe then had exquisite make-up on her face and a delicate dress on her body. She looked so elegant. She didn't look like a 60-year-old woman at all.
But now, Chloe was lying on the hospital bed, her face as haggard as a dead leaf, her eyes cloudy and lax.
Noticing Scarlett’s gaze, Chloe's rolled her eyes. With difficulty, she turned her eyes to Scarlett.
She opened her mouth and seemed to want to say something. But Scarlett couldn't hear her.
Scarlett leaned down and moved closer to Chloe, then she vaguely heard Chloe say " thank you".
Scarlett understood why Chloe said that to her. Scarlett had ca long way. Chloe's nieces and nephews were all expecting her to die soon, so they could get her inheritance. But Scarlett, a stranger to her, call the way to visit her beside her sick bed. Chloe was moved.
Scarlett looked at Chris and her eyes fell on his tired eyes. She was worried about him." Did you not sleep well last night?" Chris nodded and looked down at her.
After the doctor gave Chloe a shot of morphine, Chloe fell asleep. Secretary Emerson suggested Chris take Scarlett to wash up and get something to eat while she watched Chloe at the hospital.
Chris rushed to the hospital after a morning meeting. He hadn't eaten anything for lunch either.
Then the two went to lunch, but neither of them had an appetite. Besides, Scarlett was not used to the local food. She only had ssoup and a few bites of sandwich.
Scarlett didn't sleep well on the way and didn't eat anything. She went straight to the hospital after she got off the plane.
Seeing Chloe's condition, Scarlett’s heart sank. She couldn't rest.
Chris poured a glass of water for her. When Scarlett took the glass, she found it was warm. She was a little surprised, "Thank you." Chris looked at her, "Go rest for a while. | have sbusiness to take care of later." Then Chris took Scarlett to the bedroom.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe whole apartment was decorated in a very simple and dull style. The bedroom was also the same.
Scarlett walked into the bedroom and found an aromatherapy candle on the bedstand. Scarlett gave it to Chris when he left the city a month ago.
Scarlett walked closer to the bedstand. She smelled the familiar scent.
Chris, who was standing behind her, took a T-shirt from the closet and handed it to her, "Here! Put it on. I'll have pajamas sent to you later." Scarlett had cin a hurry. She didn't bring anything with her except the critical certificates.
She was still wearing the dress and blazer from yesterday. She really couldn't sleep in those clothes.
Scarlett changed into Chris' T-shirt. The soft cotton T-shirt smelled like the aromatherapy candle she gave him.
Scarlett lowered her head and sucked in the smell of the T-shirt. She curled up the corners of her lips into a smile.
Chris didn't lie to her. He did like the smell.
