Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 413
Upon hearing the voice, Wendy saw Madge coming in a hurry.
Because Madge was wearing high heels, she looked a little higher than usual. She ran to Kim and said, "Dad!"
"Madge? Why are you here too?" Kim was a little surprised to see his daughter.
"Dad, how could I not come? You said on the phone that Charlie was in the hospital, so I immediately drove over from home!" Madge quickly replied.
In fact, it was Linda who saw her husband going out in the evening and never coming back, so she called him again and again. On the last call that night, Kim just arrived at the hospital, in case his wife continued to suspect him, so he said that he could not leave the hospital because Charlie's there. Madge, who was next to Linda, heard it clearly.
Madge turned to look at Wendy and asked, "Why are you here?"
Wendy frowned slightly.
Madge's words were with a surprised tone, in fact, it's very normal, but somehow she felt as if it was not that simple, because the way Madge looked at her made her feel that Madge thought she was not supposed to be here at this time...
Wendy did not think about it deeply, because all she could think about was Charlie's safety. Kim knew that the relationship between the two girls was sensitive, so he took his daughter to Gilbert's side, "Go comfort Uncle Hogg!"
Madge was almost pushed over by her father. Without saying anything, she just sat on the chair.
"Madge, good girl, you're here too." Gilbert opened his eyes and said with a sigh.
"Uncle Hogg, Charlie will be fine. Don't worry!" Madge said softly.
"Hum!" Gilbert nodded his head.
Wendy, however, did not care about it at all, she crossed her hands and clasped them together, praying silently.
Finally, the door of the operating room opened.
As soon as the attending doctor came out from the room, he was surrounded by them.
"Doctor, how is it going?"
The attending doctor raised his hand slightly, removed his mask, smiled and said, "Don't worry, the operation was successful and now the patient doesn't have any life-threatening condition! But for safety's sake, he'll be sent to the ICU for observation overnight, and then transferred to a regular ward tomorrow!"
"Thank you, thank you, doctor!" It seemed that this was the only word that could be said at this time.
Soon, the nurse pushed Charlie out of the operating room.
His face was pale, and so were his thin lips, although his body was strong, he looked weak. He seemed to come to his senses for a while, his sunken deep eyes half open and half closed, there's a dim light flashed through his eyes.
"Charlie!"
Gilbert was supported by Ella and Madge on the left and right, and they quickly stepped forward.
Charlie didn't look at them. Through the cracks between them, he looked at Wendy all the time, and then slowly raised his arm.
He obviously frowned. It must hurt a lot.
Wendy's line of sight was hazy, but she strode over and grabbed Charlie's hand. Seeing his Adam's apple rolling up and down, Wendy knew what he was going to say. Tears fell from her eyes and she sobbed, "Charlie, I'm fine. I'm not afraid..."
Such a scene made everyone around them seem like an automatic background.
They looked at each other as if no one was watching them. No one came forward to stop them, because both she and Charlie were holding each other's hands tightly.
In other people's sights, Wendy followed Charlie into the ICU.
Gilbert moved the corner of his mouth and didn't say anything in the end, but he looked very unpleasant. Ella, who was next to him, carefully patted his back to smooth his breath.
Madge didn't look any better, even her nails were stuck into her palm.
Kim also looked at the two people who were fading away, but his expression was in a slight trance, as if he was also caught up in some fragment of memory.
The young girl smiled like a flower. They went on a spring hiking trip to the countryside, and halfway through the trip he accidentally fell down from the hillside, his right leg hit a huge stone and was broken, and the girl was terrified and cried until she couldn't utter a complete sentence. He quickly comforted her, telling her not to be afraid. When she saw him in pain with cold sweat all over his body, she wiped her tears and kept telling him, "I'm fine, I'm not afraid, Kim, you don't have to be afraid..."
Kim...
That soft and gentle voice rang in his ears.
Kim seemed to have been hit by the pain over the past 20 years, and he couldn't breathe because of the pain.
Gilbert suddenly raised his hand to hold his head. His wife next to him asked with concern, "Master, are you alright?"
Kim came to his senses and calmed down. He went over and said, "Brother Hogg must be too anxious. You help him back and get some rest! The operation has already finished. Charlie has to stay in the ICU tonight and doesn't need too many people around. Let him go back and get some rest and come back tomorrow!"
"Brother Lu, thank you for your hard work today!" Ella said gratefully.
"Don't mention it, Ella! I'm glad to be able to help!" Kim smiled.
After they left, Kim looked at his daughter who was standing still and looking in the direction of ICU. He patted her on the shoulder and said, "Madge, let's go back. I don't feel at ease if you drive alone at night. Take my car!"
"Dad!" Madge called unhappily, as if complaining him about helping an outsider.
"Let's go!" Kim sighed and took her to the elevator.
The night was getting darker and darker.
Wendy stayed with Charlie in the ICU. She sat in the chair, even though her eyelids were heavy, she didn't want to sleep at all and stared at him lying in the hospital bed who had fallen asleep.
His right hand was inserted with a needle, and his left palm flattened with palm up, wrapped in layers of gauze.
Even if the wound was covered by gauze and could not be seen, she could imagine how shocking it was.
Because before the ambulance arrived, she saw the knife fall from his hand, and his palm was already a mess of blood and flesh, could not see the original appearance, and the cut was so deep that the bones could be seen clearly.
He only did that because he was afraid she would get hurt...
Wendy carefully held his big hand with both hands, like a true believer.
She did not sleep the whole night, the next morning when the sunrise gradually rose, she felt a slight movement on the palm of her hand. She was busy looking up to see that Charlie was slowly opening his eyes and meeting her worried eyes.
"Charlie, you're awake!"
Wendy looked at him and burst into tears. "You scared me..."
Charlie didn't speak immediately, but looked at her for two seconds, and then asked in a hoarse voice, "Who are you?"
"Charlie, you..." Wendy stiffened.
He looked at her as if he didn't know her at all...
His forehead was also wrapped in gauze because his head was swung by an iron stick, and it wouldn't be because of that that he once again didn't remember who she was like he did when they met again after four years...
Wendy was in a state of panic when she heard his low chuckle.
"I'm just kidding!" Charlie pulled his lips and raised his injured hand. He frowned and wiped away the hot tears on her face with some difficulty. "It hurts to see you crying."
