"I will arrange someone to protect you when the time comes, don't worry, I won't let you suffer." Jocelyn added.
"You really look up to him." Noah hooked his lips with the blandness of a monarch.
"Just in case ... although I know you are good at fight, but."
"I will take care of it, you just stay out of it."
"No, since I asked you to do it, then I have to be responsible for you." Jocelyn insisted.
"Okay, I will let you be responsible for me."
"It's a must."
After saying this, she felt that as if something was wrong with his words.
Could it really be that she was thinking too much today?
"When the time comes, after you go to the room with Lennox, you ..."
"I know what to do." He changed the subject straight away, "You're very good at running away from a place like that." He complimented.
"Probably because desperate times can inspire one's hidden powers." Recalling what had just happened, she still had palpitations in her heart.
She really dreaded to think what she would have been like if Lennox's gun hadn't fallen down.
Probably she would have been eaten by that Tibetan mastiff.
"When you fired that shot, it hurt, right?" His gaze wandered over her left shoulder.
"Yes, I wanted to hurt myself, so I shot, otherwise, how could that feeling be washed away?"
He didn't say anything more, he just gave her a deep look before he lowered the hospital bed for her and covered her with the quilt, "You rest, I'm going to the balcony to have a cigarette."
With these words, he walked to the balcony, stood at the window and lit a cigarette.
Between the smoke and the mist, his face was getting colder and colder.
A knock sounded at the door.
Noah turned around.
At this time, the door opened and Abel pushed Paige, who was sitting in a wheelchair, in.
She had changed into a blue and white striped hospital gown, and her face was still pale.
Seeing her, Jocelyn immediately said with concern, "Are you alright, Paige?"
Paige nodded.
Abel pushed her straight to Jocelyn's side.
"How about you? Are you all right?" Paige asked.
"I'm fine." Jocelyn responded in a soft voice.
"Originally, the doctor said that she was required to rest in the ward, but she didn't listen and insisted on coming over, I couldn't stop her at all." Abel looked at Jocelyn with a helpless face as he held his forehead.
"How can I stay in the ward without worrying if I can't see her?" Paige turned her head to look at Abel and said.
"You hurry up and go back to rest, I'm fine, I have Noah here to take care of me." Jocelyn gently held Paige's hand and said.
Noah did not go up and kept standing on the balcony smoking.
His back was always turned to the few of them.
His back was straight and upright in the sunlight, just like a soldier.
"Hear that? Let's go." Abel directly pushed Paige out.
Paige wanted to get up and resist, but Abel simply pressed her into the wheelchair, forcing her all the way.
The corners of his mouth curled up in a smile as he watched her being angry.
After leaving the door, Paige frowned in dissatisfaction, "Abel, what are you doing? I haven't finished talking to Jocelyn yet."
"You've already seen Jocelyn and she's fine, so there's no need to stay all the time, you need to rest too."
"You are really heartless." Abel complained, "Trying to kick me out after using me?"
"Should leave you here and play mahjong?" Paige raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Abel.
Abel couldn't help but smile, his left hand stroking his chin, "Interesting."
Just at this time, Abel's mobile phone vibrated.
Seeing that it was a call from home, Abel immediately pressed answer.
Over there, his father told him that an important family friend had come and that he had to go back.
He immediately pressed hang up and looked at Paige with a smile in his eyes, "I'll go home first and come back to see you later."
"No need, I can take care of myself." Paige said.
"Be good, and wait for me." Abel gently stroked her head, before turning around and walking away.
The moment the door closed, Paige touched the part of her head that he had touched with a disgusted look and complained, "Flippant."
She stayed until late afternoon and felt hungry.
Just as she picked up her phone to order takeaway, a knock sounded on the door.
"Come in."
Immediately after, the door to the ward was slowly pushed open and a man in black walked up to her carrying two large bags full of stuff, "Miss Gill, this is something from Abel, he said he had an important matter at the moment and couldn't make it over."
With those words, the man in black put his things down, and then turned around and walked away.
Paige didn't think much of it, so she took out the things in the bag one by one.
There were six dishes in total, all of which were great tonic.
She was just about to eat when her phone vibrated.
Some wanted to friend her in WeChat.
