C93 It Was Only Three Seconds.
Under the request of the Author, Lydia went to the infirmary to treat her wounds.
After leaving the infirmary, she waved her hand and smiled at him. "Thanks."
"Remember not to touch water for the next two days, or the wound won't heal." Author was afraid that she would ignore him and repeatedly reminded her.
With the Author in mind, Lydia narrowed her eyes and smiled.
She had gotten used to his carefree attitude, but it was a little strange for him to suddenly remind her of so many things.
"Lydia," she called out.
Hearing Author call her by her name, Lydia suddenly pulled her thoughts back and focused her gaze on the man's handsome face. "Hmm?"
"Do you like me?"
Facing the baffling question of Author, Lydia's eyes were filled with confusion, "Ha?" What kind of question is this?
"I'm sure it's normal for you to be liked, but you should control your emotions. You were staring at me for a long time."
Hearing Author's explanation, the corner of Lydia's mouth twitched. "I was just distracted."
"Ugh..."
"Stop being so narcissistic," he said.
"Oh? Really?" Author shook his head in disbelief. "Little cutie, look into my eyes and say it again, okay?"
The man's face suddenly moved closer to her, causing her to freeze on the spot.
At this moment, the two of them were very close, so close that she could count the number of Author's eyelashes.
Dong.
Her chest was in a mess, but she quickly calmed down and said lightly, "Don't worry. You are the only man in the world that I, Lydia, will not like."
Is that so?
Hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed across the depths of Author's dark eyes.
However, when he straightened up, the emotions in his eyes had long been replaced by the usual unruly ones. "Little cutie, you are really heartless. I'm so sad."
"It's really just three seconds."
Lydia pretended not to notice the strange expression on her face and pinched the space between her eyebrows with a headache.
Ding, ding, ding.
At this moment, her phone rang.
Lydia took out her phone and looked at the screen. The words 'Reece' were written on the screen, and her forehead was in a knot.
Because of the unpleasantness at noon, she had hung up the phone before she could get angry.
She did not want to get in contact with that person for the time being. Otherwise, she was afraid that her mood that had finally calmed down would collapse again.
However, just as she hung up, the phone rang again.
Seeing the woman so resistant, Author curiously glanced at her phone screen.
When he saw the words 'Reece', his dark eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
Hearing the ringing of the phone, Author glanced at Lydia and squeezed out a smile, "Just pick it up. I need to go to the bathroom."
Seeing that Author had left, the stubborn phone ringing sounded in Lydia's ears once again.
He was really annoying.
She wanted to hang up again, but when she raised her thumb, she didn't press the button for a long time.
After thinking for a few seconds, she picked up the call again.
"Where are you?" The man on the other end of the line asked after a few seconds of silence.
"I'm at school," she replied coldly. "Today afternoon, prepare for the shoot of the diamond ring advertisement."
"Alright, I'll get Loran to arrange it."
"Okay."
"Lydia, I'm outside the school."
Just as Lydia was about to hang up, the man's voice sounded in her ear again.
She was stunned.
Why did he come?
"The consultation appointment with Doctor Chen is about to arrive. Will you come out or will I go in and look for you?" The man's questioning voice sounded in her ear again, but Lydia's expression was slightly ugly.
He seemed to have given her a choice every time, but she didn't have a choice every time.
"I don't want to choose either of them. You can leave. I won't go." After saying that, Lydia hung up the phone decisively.
As she held her phone, her eyes were filled with tears again.
She could give in to everything, except for the matter of her left leg. She didn't want to give in, nor did she want to accept the treatment arranged by someone else.
She could be vengeful or stubborn, but she didn't want to accept his goodwill.
If she could not cure it, then she would accept it. The pain in her left leg reminded her of how cold this man had been. She had to stay clear-headed and stay away from a person who did not love her.
"Lydia."
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Reece's magnetic voice sounded in her ear again.
Lydia's heart skipped a beat. She looked up at the source of the voice and her eyes met with the man's deep gaze.
Lydia's eyebrows furrowed as she stared at Reece's chiseled face. Her eyes were filled with indifference. "Mr. Tillman, I don't have any spies here. You should call me Lydia."
She was really not used to this phrase.
Reece took in the coldness in the woman's eyes. His heart sank, but he still looked calm. "I have sent your medical records to Elder Chen. He said that you still have a chance to recover."
"Is there anything else?" Lydia looked at the man coldly. "If there is nothing else, then I'm sorry, Mr. Tillman. I still have a class. I'll be going back first."
She reached out her leg and was about to leave.
Just as she took a step forward, a warm hand grabbed her wrist and forced her to stop. "Lydia, this is not the time to be angry."
Angry?
Maybe she was really angry.
But shouldn't she be angry?
Her left leg was broken by him, and he came to find a doctor to treat her. Why did he do whatever he wanted? Why did he?
Was she going to accept his arrangement?
No!
She didn't want to!
Lydia forcefully pulled her hand away from the man's palm and replied unwillingly, "So what if I was angry? I'm fine as long as I want to." Then, she left without looking back.
Seeing the woman's back, Reece lit a cigarette and took a puff.
Because he was too ruthless, the man coughed and even his eyes were bloodshot.
Just then, he coughed again and again while smoking the cigarette in his hand.
Although it was an empty room, the smoke soon covered the man's handsome face and covered his true emotions.
Seeing that the two of them had fallen out, Loran, who had been following them, walked up.
He glanced at Lydia in the distance and secretly glanced at the man beside him. However, his spine stiffened because of the man's sinister expression.
This was the first time he had seen sixth brother so gloomy. The coldness in his eyes seemed to want to devour the entire world.
He swallowed his saliva and asked bravely, "Sixth, Sixth Brother, are we going back?"
"What do you think?" The man glared at him coldly. Loran's heart trembled.
"Ugh..."
"Why are you venting your anger on me? I'm not a punching bag."
"Then, then what should we do next?"
The man fiercely smoked another mouthful of cigarette and walked into the car.
