Chapter 1158
You Hit My Heart
Tommy looked at Charlotte crying with pearly tears, and he felt so bad
suddenly.
More than that, he was heartbroken. He had always had respect and
good feelings for her, too.
"Of course I want to help you escape, Miss Charlotte. I've been thinking
about this these days. But ..."
He was hesitant. It was too risky. In front of the Heath residence, there
were always Mr. Robertson's men patroling back and forth, and Eugene
also came to check from time to time. Even if they evaded the guards
at the Heath residence, the situation outside was unclear, and he was
not clear about the Military Staff House, so how should they escape?
âYou help me." Charlotte licked her dry, cracked lips, her eyes shining
with the hope of survival.
"As you can see, I can't recover from the miscarriage, and now I have a
pneumonia infection, so I can barely sleep with the coughing every day,
and my stomach hurts too much."
She reached out from the top of the coffee table, brought some
painkillers, poured out a few, and lumped them into her mouths.
When he saw this, Tommy hurriedly brought her a glass of water.
She tilted her head, swallowed the pill and drained the water in one
gulp.
"Almost all of the medicine stocked at home is gone, and there are no
anti-inflammatory antibiotics, and the cough drops are gone. I am now
in pain every day, all relying on painkillers.â She looked at him
begrudgingly, "My mother used to be so good to you, can you really
bear to see me tortured to death by Otis?"
Tommy struggled internally, "Miss Charlotte, of course I wish you well. I
am also willing to help you. I am even willing to escape with you. But,
it's really too dangerous, and I do not dare to rash. I am afraid that after
the failure, you will suffer even more."
"Could it be any worse than now?" Charlotte's eyes were swollen like
walnuts, her face as pale as paper, her lips without a trace of blood,
"Right now, I'm as good as dead."
Tommy frowned deeply, and in a few moments, he seemed to make up
his mind.
She was right, and he had seen what Otis could do.
If the end was the same, it was better to try. At least they would not
have regrets.
"Miss Charlotte, if we can get out without any problems, we still need to
travel a few kilometers, you ..." Tommy looked at Charlotte's legs
worriedly, âCan you walk ?"
In fact, he had a method, but it was very difficult. Charlotte is
bedridden, and he dared not even think about it.
"I can." Charlotte propped herself up on the coffee table and stood up,
taking a few steps inside the room.
"When you are not here, I get out of bed and pour water and go to the
kitchen to find food by myself. If I have the painkillers, I can last a long
time. As long as I have painkillers, I can hold out. Believe me. Just now
I fell off the bed because the effect of the painkillers had gone. I wanted
to save my medication and didn't dare to take more. After all, there
wasn't much of it."
Her face showed an unusual determination.
âIt's not too late. Let's escape tonight, okay? I think it's raining outside
now, and it's easy to hide. Maybe it's an opportunity. Really, I can't stay
for a moment. Otis could come back and kill me at any time, and I'm
worse than dead right now."
"Miss Charlotte, it's still early. We'll leave in the early morning, so you
can rest for a while and get refreshed. I'll go out again and check the
route, and do some preparations and bring some food back. You wait
for me." Tommy looked serious, and his eyebrows wrinkled.
He went out of his way. He grew up in the military, and Cecelia had
always treated him like a son.
He was later assigned to Charlotte, who took care of him.
Now that Cecelia's daughter was in trouble, and Otis was extremely
cruel, he had to save Charlotte from it even at the risk of his life.
