Armand’s body stiffened abruptly as if he didn’t expect to meet Theresa suddenly. He almost wanted to
let go of Phoebe by instinct. However, at the moment he lost his hold, Phoebe grabbed him and
pretended to be in pain in her legs on purpose. She appeared to be on the verge of collapsing if she
didn’t hold Armand.
Armand didn’t move anymore, and he didn’t push Phoebe away either. At this moment, Armand also
wanted to see whether Theresa would become enraged because he was with Phoebe.
Although Theresa didn’t avoid him and visited Mrs. Leslie on occasion, her attitude towards him was
very cold to the point where he felt that Theresa had no feelings for him.
Phoebe happened to be by his side at the time. So, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to
test Theresa’s attitude towards him. If she was upset, it meant she cared about him.
Phoebe sneaked a glance at Armand. She didn’t expect that he didn’t push her away. She was happy
in her heart but pretended to look sad, “Miss Theresa, don’t get me wrong. My leg is injured, and I’m
unable to walk. So, Armand accompanied me to the hospital…”
“I don’t get anything wrong.”
Theresa’s hand, which was holding the prescription list, was clenched tightly. The nails pierced the
paper and were embedded in the flesh of her palm. She could only keep her head clear if she were in
enough pain.
She smiled lightly and peacefully, “I had nothing to do with Mr.… Armand now. It’s his freedom to be
with whoever he wants to.”
Armand pursed his lips tightly and tensed his muscles throughout his body. He was overwhelmed with
emotion in his heart and was unable to calm down. He seemed to be unable to accept Theresa’s
serenity.
The calmer Theresa was, that meant the less she cared about him.
Phoebe was overjoyed in her heart.
But she didn’t dare to show it on her face. After all, she couldn’t quite understand Armand’s reaction
right now. Was it that he had given up on Theresa, or was it something else?
She had to catch Armand this time.
Armand, who was repressing the disappointment and pain in his heart, didn’t say anything. He held
Phoebe’s waist, “Let’s go.”
Armand shouldered Theresa when he walked right past her, not sure if he was intentional or
unintentional.
Theresa had vomited so badly that she was out of energy. Armand’s shoulder charge nearly knocked
her to the ground. Fortunately, there was a window on her side. She didn’t fall because she supported
her body with her hands.
She slowly squatted down her body and covered her chest with her hands. She wished to conceal the
sadness that was bursting from her chest.
Theresa’s only feeling was pain as if someone had dug a hole in her heart. The blood was flowing out
unstoppably.
She was not sure if she would die because all of her blood had flown out and dried up.
Not sure if her emotions were too agitated, her stomach churned violently again. She covered her
mouth with her hand and dashed to the restroom.
Outside of the hospital, Armand escorted Phoebe onto a taxi, “You go back first.”
Phoebe wanted to grab him, but she wasn’t brave enough to do so. She was afraid that Armand would
be disgusted by her eagerness, despite Armand’s good impression of her that she had created with a
lot of effort.
“You still have something to deal with, right?” Phoebe beat about the bush.
Armand hummed lightly. He didn’t want to say anything else and shut the door of the car. Phoebe was
a bit flustered. Obviously, Armand didn’t want to go because he wanted to go back to find Theresa.
Phoebe lowered the car window immediately, “You want to explain to Theresa, right? Do you want me
to help you in explaining it clearly to her? After all, nothing happened between the two of us.”
Armand was a bit impatient, “No need.”
He let the driver drive the car after he finished speaking.
Armand turned around and walked into the lounge after seeing the car sped away. Armand walked to
the corridor where he had just met Theresa. However, Theresa was nowhere to be found in the
corridor. He frowned and turned to walk towards the lounge. The lounge was bustled with people, but
he couldn’t find Theresa.
Armand was feeling a little lonely.
He was dejected. He had given up on finding Theresa and was about to leave when he noticed her
walking out of the restroom. She covered her stomach, and her face was a bit pale. She seemed to be
sick.
Armand approached her quickly and held her, “What happened to you?”
Theresa raised her head, and the face that came into her view was a little blurry. But she could see this
face clearly after a short time. She was not sure why her throat tightened after she saw clearly that the
person was Armand. Her nose felt like it was stuffed with a large ball of cotton, and a sourness rolled
wildly around the rim of her eyes. She lowered her head, “Why do you come back again? Do you want
to have a good laugh at me?”
Armand was reluctant to admit that he came back to find her. He actually wanted to see Theresa and
was worried that she was sick because she was in the hospital, “Yes.”
Theresa laughed until her tears were going to drop, “You come and find me like this, aren’t you scared
that your ex-girlfriend… No, should be your girlfriend, who you had made up with, now. Aren’t you
afraid that she will get angry?”
“She is not that small-minded.”
Theresa paused for a moment. Did he mean that she was small-minded before?
She gave a bitter smile. So actually, it was wrong to be angry because she cared about him?
Was it true love only if it was with tolerance and indulgence?
Interesting.
Theresa felt that Armand destroyed her world views.
“You go away. I don’t need you.” Theresa shook off his hand.
Armand didn’t let go of her, “Are you sick? What did the doctor say? What is the matter with you? How
to treat it?”
Theresa went blank for a moment after Armand’s series of questions. But she quickly regained her
sanity. She raised her head and looked at Armand. Suddenly, Theresa laughed loudly, “The doctor said
I’m hurt here.” She kept her hand over her heart, “Do you know how it was hurt?”
Armand looked at her, “Is it because of me?”
Theresa stopped laughing, “No. It is all because of me. I never thought of myself as stupid before. But
after I met you, I found out that I’m just a fool. I even believed in your sweet words. You said you would
definitely treat me well, forever. Ha. You’re awesome because I believed in you. You had successfully
spoofed me.”
Armand shook his head, “I wasn’t lying. I really want to treat you well…”
“Leave these words for your girlfriend,” Theresa interrupted him. She was really sad and disappointed
with Armand. She didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore.
She left Armand there and wanted to leave. Armand, on the other hand, didn’t want to let go of her in
this way. So, he held her wrist, “I just want to say these words to you.”
“Let go of me!” Theresa tried to shake his hand off, but he gripped it so tightly, and she was out of
energy also. Struggling was clearly futile.
Armand took over the prescription list in her hand and pushed her into the chair, “Sit here and wait for
me.”
Armand was afraid that Theresa would go away without informing him, so he warned her, “If you dare
to go away, I’ll go to the shop and bother you.”
Theresa looked at him, and she didn’t even have the energy to get angry now, “Armand, when will you
grow up? You are childish, aren’t you?”
Armand smiled. Yes, he was the most relaxed in front of Theresa, and he revealed the most genuine
side of himself to her. Even when he was with Phoebe before, he was not as relaxed as when he was
with Theresa.
“Wait for me.” Armand took the prescription list to the dispensary window to take medicine.
There was only one box of Vitamin B6 given. Armand looked at it and asked the doctor who took
medicine, “May I know that what disease does this medicine cure?”
There were a lot of people in the hospital. The doctor who took the medicine didn’t hear him.
Armand raised his voice and asked again, “May I know what disease does this Vitamin B6
cure?”
Armand smiled. Yes, he was the most relaxed in front of Theresa, and he revealed the most genuine
