Chapter 211 Ellie wasn't just Brandon's little sister. She was practically his daughter, as he had raised her since she was a child.
Their bond was so deep that it explained why Brandon was so cautious and hesitant when it cto Ellie's matters.
Ellie shared stories about her and Brandon. She toldabout this little courtyard and how every brick and tile was built by Brandon himself. She also mentioned how Brandon used to catch fish and grill them for her, and how he becan excellent cook from trying to make good food for her.
I learned more about Brandon as Ellie shared stories about her and Brandon. They were stories that tugged at my heartstrings. His Independent character was forged from years of responsibility and loneliness.
As Ellie continued talking, she eventually drifted off to sleep. I had a sudden urge to call Brandon after looking at Ellie sleeping peacefully.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI wanted to tell him that from now on, I would take care of him and he wouldn't have to be the only one always caring for others.
However, that impulse passed as quickly as it came. I didn't act upon that thought. Sintentions were better shown through actions rather than words.
I didn't give Brandon a call. Instead, I dialed Lisa's number.
"Where are you?" Lisa's voice sounded tired.
I noticed something was off. "What's wrong? Did you just get off surgery? You sound exhausted." "I'm sick." Lisa's words caughtby surprise.
However, given how she overworked herself, it wasn't all that surprising. After all, people aren't machines, and even doctors can fall ill.
"What happened? Have you taken your medicine?" I asked with concern.
"I have. It's nothing serious. I was just overworked, Lisa replied before asking, "But you haven't toldabout your whereabouts yet. Did something happen?" I laughed. "Do I seem like the kind of person who will run away when something goes wrong?" "Nope." Lisa knewwell.
"Liz, I need a favor." I explained Ellie's situation, but Lisa didn't respond for a while.
I started to worry that I was putting her in a tough spot. "You don't know anybody who can help, do you?" I asked.
-do," Lisa finally said with a hesitant voice. "And based on what you told me, I think it's possible." "Thanks, Liz." I didn't notice anything strange in her tone.
"But I don't want to talk to this person." Lisa's words caughtoff guard.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI paused for a couple of seconds. "Do you have ssort of grudge against that person? Or is it something more personal?" Lisa laughed at my question. "I don't hold any grudges.
Then it must be something personal." I suddenly remembered that Lisa had a crush on a senior during Chapter 211 our school days. That crush lasted throughout her entire youth, but she had never let her feelings be known.
The reason Lisa gave, and I quote, was, "He deserves better." Lisa was capable of love, but she had her own limits.
"Is that senior married now?" I asked.
Lisa went silent for a couple of seconds. "I don't know, I stopped hing keeping tabs on him after kom graduated only cacross published papers. He's beca world-renowned expert in cardiology." Upon hearing that, I knew there was hope for Ellie's heart condition.
"Liz, just ask him, please. Saving a life is more important than anything This n else," I pleaded. This was my first tpushing her.
I wasn't entirely selfless. A part ofmatch for yet.
was thinking that maybe the senior hadn't found his "perfect They could reconnect through Ellie's situation and maybe there would be a new beginning for them. The content. is on novelenglish.net! Lisa sighed. "Madeline, you really know how to prioritize romance over friendship." Through her words, I knew she was going to help.
