Chapter 613 "You've already called him, even though you just woke up.
Lindsey fell into a brief silence, her lips pressed together as she regarded him. Eventually, she broke the silence, asking, "Sumner, my mom... has she... woken up?" Sumner's gentle blowing stopped suddenly.
His grip tightened, and in a swift motion, he slammed the bowl onto the table.
His eyes, filled with emotion, fixed on Lindsey's pale face, and he took a deep breath.
"Is that all you have to say to me? Is my only purpose to be your source of information?" "Sumner..." Lindsey regarded him with surprise, never having witnessed him so furious.
However, she couldn't fathom what she had done to provoke him.
Lindsey remembered how Sumner had helped her and her mother escape.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe wanted to know about her mother's condition and realized she had forgotten to thank him.
Feeling remorseful, she quickly said, "Sumner, thank you for saving us, I...” "Your thanks? That's not what I want to hear.
" Sumner cut her off, raising his voice slightly before sitting beside her.
Following a brief pause, Lindsey couldn't suppress the questions swirling in her thoughts.
"Sumner, it was such a dangerous situation.
Why did you still venture inside? Can you grasp how close we were to losing our lives? If anything had happened to you, I'd have carried that guilt withfor the rest of my life.
" Sumner gazed at her, his eyes carrying a profound intensity.
"I did it because I couldn't bear the thought of anything happening to you.
Even if it meant risking my life, I would have done it for you.
" Lindsey averted her gaze, murmuring softly, "But... we're just friends, aren't we?" Sumner gave a half-smile.
"And so? As your friend, I didn't hesitate to rescue you.
Yet your boyfriend just stood by, doing nothing while you were in danger.
Lindsey, do you really think he cares about you?" These words hit Lindsey hard.
She lay there, speechless, a sting of pain in her heart.
Still, she wasn't ready to accept it.
She looked him in the eye, trying to defend, "Waiting for the firefighters was the sensible thing to do.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI acted without thinking.
" Sumner, visibly upset yet trying to conceal it with a smile, retorted, "Sensible? Since when does love follow logic? Tell me, how will you react if he gets trapped in the fire? Even if you acknowledge the necessity of being rational, will you stay outside awaiting help?" Lindsey couldn't find the words.
She knew she would have dashed in without a care, much like she had when saving her mother earlier today.
"Sumner, what are you trying to say?" Lindsey felt overwhelmed and m confused as she looked at Sumner. "I mean to say..." Sumner started, but was cut off when the door swung open.
They both turned to see Domenic at the doorway, eyeing them.
Sumner's brow furrowed in annoyance.
He couldn't believe Domenic had the nerve to show up.
Domenic walked over to the bedside table, eyeing the hot porridge.
He clenched the bag he was holding.
Sumner glanced at the bag and said icily, "Lindsey should only have plain Bey shoul e porridge. Didn't you know?"
