C130 Meeting Justus

Ding.

The door of the emergency ward slowly opened, and a doctor in a white coat walked out.

Reece stretched his legs and walked forward. "How is she?"

"Miss Ellis's waist is still quite injured. There is a lot of blood in her body, but don't worry. I gave her an ice compress. She'll be fine after she wakes up and rests in bed for a while."

The doctor's explanation slightly eased the man's dark expression.

He looked up at the girl's pale face on the bed and frowned. "So, she fainted because of the injury on her waist?"

Was this silly girl always trying to hold on in America?

"...Part of the reason."

The doctor's answer made Reece look at him. "What about the other reason?"

"From the MRI scan just now, it should be because she was hit twice after being injured."

Two hits?

Reece muttered to himself as the image of Theresa crashing into the hospital bed after retreating the wheel appeared in his mind.

In the next second, the man's eyes narrowed into a slit. A cold killing intent surged in his eyes.

The temperature in the corridor suddenly dropped by a few degrees. The floor was covered in a thin layer of ice.

Loran had been following the man for many years, and he had almost smelled the scent of danger at the same time.

He stole a glance at his sixth brother and was stunned by the man's aggressive demeanor. He could not help but tense up.

'Damn it... Who has offended sixth brother?'

'Why does sixth brother look so scary?' He looked like a demon from hell, with a bloodthirsty aura.

No matter who it was that had offended sixth brother, it was best to lower their presence.

'Can't see me, can't see me, sixth brother can't see me.'

Loran was praying silently when Reece suddenly looked at him. "Loran."

"!!!" Loran, who was struck by lightning, froze on the spot.

After a few seconds, Loran braced himself and walked up to him. "Six, Sixth Brother, what's the matter?"

Although he was smiling, his heart was filled with jealousy and resistance. In his heart, he was silently cursing, "Sixth brother, I didn't offend you. Don't try to test me."

"Do me a favor..." Reece whispered into Loran's ear.

"Alright, I'll do it right away."

Loran nodded and walked out of the room.

"..."

"Lydia?" A gentle voice sounded beside her ear, and she slowly regained consciousness.

She raised her heavy eyelids and looked at a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes.

"Are you awake?" The man in a white coat and a mask squinted his eyes. "How did you end up like this?"

Looking at the doctor who seemed to be very familiar with her, Lydia's eyes were filled with confusion.

Did they know each other?

She stared at the man who had a pair of almond-shaped eyes and carefully looked him up and down, searching for a boy who matched his appearance.

"Why did you forget about me?" Justus took off his mask and revealed his original appearance. "I am Justus, Justus."

The boy smiled and looked down at her from top to bottom. Lydia was stunned for a moment before her eyes were filled with surprise. "Sarah's brother — Justus?"

"Yes."

"Didn't you move to C Nation? Why are you still in Goulcrest? Is she okay?" Looking at her ex-girlfriend's brother, she was so excited that she was about to get up.

However, just as she moved, her waist hurt so much that she lost the strength in her hands. She fell back onto the bed again.

This scene happened to fall into the eyes of Reece, who was walking in from the outside. He walked past Justus and helped her up. "Who asked you to move? Get up!"

"..."

Lydia's good intentions were ignored by her.

She turned around and smiled at Justus. "Justus, is Sara okay? Is she in Goulcrest now? Do you have her contact information? Can you give it to me?"

Facing the girl's series of questions, Justus' gaze finally withdrew from Reece's worried face.

He retracted the emotions in his eyes and answered one by one, "Sarah is doing well. She is not in Goulcrest. I will write down her contact information for you."

"Okay, thank you." After obtaining the contact information of her best friend, Lydia could not stop smiling.

Sara was her childhood playmate and best friend.

Because the main focus of the Lane family's business was in C Nation, the Lane family had moved away from Goulcrest a few years ago. As a result, Sara had gone abroad to live. Thus, they had less contact with each other.

In addition, she had accidentally lost her phone, so she had lost contact with her best friend.

She was naturally overjoyed to be able to get in touch with her best friend again.

She was so happy that she didn't realize that the two men beside her were looking at each other with a worried expression. The room was filled with tension.

After looking at each other for a few seconds, Justus retracted his gaze and smiled as he chatted with Lydia for a while before handing the ointment to her.

Reece looked away from the white figure and glanced at the girl who was holding her phone with a grin on her face. He then opened his mouth and asked, "You two know each other?"

Lane family? "Thankfully, I met them twice when I was at the Ye family," she replied honestly.

Reece nodded. His lips curled up into a smile. It was as if his mood had been lifted.

He sat by the bedside and bent down to remove the girl's shirt.

Lydia turned around in shock. "What are you doing?"

"Apply the ointment."

"No need. I can do it myself." Lydia reached out and snatched the ointment from the man. Then, she pointed to the door. "You, you go out first."

"..."

"Get out of here," she urged again.

However, the man ignored her request. He bent down and snatched the ointment from the girl's hands. He then ordered, "Lay down."

"No." She pouted and said, "Just call my mother to help me apply the ointment."

"Mom is taking care of Dad."

"Then find a nurse."

"I'm busy," the man said as he took some ointment and rubbed it in his palm. He then reached out and lifted the girl's clothes from her back.

The girl gripped the clothes tightly and refused to let go. "Reece, we've divorced!"

"..."

The man acted as if he didn't hear her. He broke the girl's stubborn fingers one by one and said, "Men and women are different. I don't want you to apply the ointment on me!"

"Re... Uh..." The man's warm palm landed on her purple back. When the intense pain hit her, the words she refused to say in her mouth turned into a painful groan.

"Be gentler!" She glared at him.

Looking at the girl's purple back, the pain in his bottomless eyes seemed to overflow. His hands became gentler and gentler.

Justus, who was wearing a white coat, was standing in front of the doorway. His eyes were filled with the words, "Reece, we're divorced."

She was divorced, she was divorced.

Justus looked up at the girl on the bed and his eyes curved up.
