âWe broke up,â Silvia said indifferently.
Chrisâs expression changed. âSorry. I didnât know...â
He suddenly thought of something before he looked at Silvia and asked, âIs it... because of me?â
Silvia remained silent for a while and shook her head. âDonât overthink it. Itâs not about you.â
Dulcie listened in on their conversation, but she was lost. âWhat are you guys talking about? Why am I so confused about what youâre saying?â she asked.
âItâs nothing.â
Silvia did not want to dwell on the subject, so she talked about something else with Chris.
The two of them stayed in the ward for half an hour before they left. When they reached the hospitalâs entrance, they saw Neil standing beside Dulcieâs car. He was clearly waiting for them.
Dulcie tugged on Silviaâs sleeve and softly said, âSil, since Mr. Remus is here to see you, should I give the two of you some space?â
âNo. Iâll just say a few words. Then, we can leave.â
âIâll enter the car first.â
Silvia walked up to Neil and stoically said, âMr. Remus, youâre becoming a nuisance. I hope youâll stop showing up in front of me.â
Neilâs eyes were full of pain. âSil, Iâm sorry. Can you forgive me one more time?â
She clenched her fists and said, âNeil, how many times have I forgiven you? Every time I think itâs the last time, what happens?â
âSil, I promise that I wonât lie to you again.â
âForget it. I donât trust you, and I donât need your promises.â
After that, she opened the car door and got in.
âDul, letâs go.â
Dulcie started the car and drove into traffic. Eventually, she cast a glance at Silvia and spoke softly, âWhat did he do? You seem so determined to break up.â
Silvia shook her head. âI donât want to talk about it anymore.â
âOkay, I wonât pry. Iâll send you back.â
In the next two weeks, Neil did not show his face in front of Silvia.
Meanwhile, she would go to the hospital and check on Chrisâs recovery each day. As time went by, their chats grew longer and longer.
A day before Chris was discharged, he could not stop himself from confessing to Silvia.
âSilvia, Iâm not trying to take advantage of the situation. I just want you to understand my feelings. If you plan on starting a new relationship one day, I hope youâll consider me first.â
Silvia saw how sincere and serious he was. It took her a while to say, âChris, you donât need to wait for me. I have no thoughts of getting into a relationship for the time being.â
âI know you have feelings for Mr. Remus, so Iâm willing to wait.â
Silvia shook her head. âIâve broken up with him, but that doesnât mean Iâll fall for someone else.â
Neil and her and been involved for too many years. All her love and hatred had been spent on him. It would be very hard for her to fall in love with someone else, and she had no interest in starting another relationship either.
âA lifetime is so long, and the possibilities are endless.â
When Silvia saw the determination in his eyes, she frowned. She decided to make things clearer.
âIâm really thankful that you saved me. But apart from gratitude, I donât have other feelings for you. Iâve been visiting you every day because you got injured trying to save me. Iâm sorry if I ever gave you the wrong impression.â
Chris was at a loss. âYou wonât even give me a chance to wait for you?â
âIâm sure that I wonât fall for you, so I donât want you to waste your time on me.â
âItâs not a waste to me.â
