Chapter 10
How could this happen?
Fortunately, after the rescue, Harley‘ s
injuries were stable and he was sent to the ward.
After a long wait, Harley finally woke up from a coma.
He opened his eyes weakly and when he saw me, he said hoarsely, “Are you… injured?”
I was stunned.
“I’m fine…”
I just said a few words and before I even had time to say thank you, Harley had fallen asleep again.
Seeing his weak appearance, I felt mixed emotions.
After telling the nurse what to pay attention to, I went home.

I stopped and didn’t look back.
“When you were in danger, I was so afraid of losing you…” He paused, his voice trembling uncontrollably and he couldn’t hide his sobs.
“Now I have also suffered the same injuries as you and I understand your pain… Can you come back? Come back to me, okay?”
I left the hospital. I just told him to take good care of his injuries. After so many days, I didn’t understand what the meaning of his belated confession and persistence was.
After learning about this, my sister was very worried about my situation. I told her not to worry. I could handle these things myself.
When I went to the hospital again, I saw Paige. She had an argument with Harley in the ward. “Harley!”

A sharp voice pierced the air and every word was an accusation against Harley. “I ran to your team for you, like a car repair worker every day, without temperament and face and I paid so much for you! What right do you have to say that to me! You like me, right? Why did you run here to find that woman! And make yourself like this! Harley, I am the one you love!”
I stood at the door and didn’t go in to disturb them.
Paige cried as usual, exactly the same as before.
Harley was silent for a long time and finally replied to her with only one sentence, “Go away, don’t meet me again in the
future.”
This sentence seemed to hit Paige’s sore spot. She smashed the ward like crazy and
rushed out of the door.
She ran two steps and turned back suddenly, looking at me.

I saw her face full of tears, as if she had found an outlet to vent, crying and. shouting, “Are you satisfied! Monica! You hurt him like this, are you satisfied!”
She wanted to attack me, but I pushed her to the ground in an instant.
Paige looked at me in shock, her eyes full !of disbelief.
I suppressed her tightly, she struggled desperately, but couldn’t escape at all.

I let her go.
She got up in a mess, wiped away her tears. and said with her neck stiff, “He… He said he loves you…
I chuckled and said helplessly, “I don‘ t love him anymore.

As soon as the voice fell, there was a slight
noise at the door of the ward.
Harley leaned against the wall, his face
pale and his eyes red, staring at me.
He heard everything I said.
But I didn’t care.
Because, it was all the truth.
After that, I never went to the hospital again.
The day Harley was discharged from the hospital, he called me.
“Monica, I want to see you.”
His voice was hoarse and pleading.
“Monica, I’m sorry. I know, it’s too late. to say anything now. Don‘ t you want to see me even once?”
I stood at the door of my house, holding the phone and didn’t speak for a long
time.

Finally, I hung up the phone.
Some things were over. Just like a broken mirror, even if it was put back together, the cracks still existed.
I didn’t want to look back.
There was a new message on WhatsApp.
Harvey: [Monica, are you free tonight? I‘ 11 treat you to a movie, your favorite!]
I tapped the screen and replied: [OK.]
