Wendy felt much more relieved when she saw that Emily was so open-minded about it.
It seemed that Emily had suddenly noticed the buildings behind Wendy. She asked, "Wendy, are you in his hospital?¹'
"His hospital?" Wendy was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Emily was referring to the private hospital where Simon Chin was working in. She nodded and replied, "Yeah..."
"It's good to be here! Private hospitals have better facilities and personnel in comparison to public hospitals. Simon is working here. It's convenient to find some good doctors he is familiar with!" Emily nodded on the screen. Seeing that Wendy did not answer her, she continued, "Wendy, what's wrong with you?"
Wendy paused and replied slowly, "You still don't know it, right? Dr. Chin has left Ice City last week. Charlie went to see him off. He's now in the Tibet Plateau."
"Is he there working as an aid technician?" Emily was very surprised.
"Yes..." Wendy nodded.
When she heard the news at that time, Wendy was also very surprised.
Seeing that Emily's face had remained motionless with her eyes drooping, Wendy thought that the
Internet might have become unsmooth. "Emily?"
Emily quickly raised her head. Although she had hidden the deepest emotion in her eyes, there were still some traces of it. She lowered her voice and said, "It's okay. I just suddenly remembered. I used to say to Simon that I really wanted to see the setting sun on the snow-capped mountains in the Tibet Plateau..."
"Emily, in fact..." Wendy bit her lip.
Emily shook her head and interrupted her. "Wendy, I know what you want to say. Forget about it. It's all in the past tense! I want to look forward, and forget about the pains of the past! Trust me. When I go back home, you will see that I have become more energetic than before!"
After the phone call, Wendy got up from the bench and walked out of the hospital.
Because she did not know how long it would take for her to talk to Emily, she had not called Uncle Lee in advance. She just called him after the phone call with Emily. Uncle Lee still hadn't arrived yet. His car might have been held up by a traffic jam.
Wendy found a large tree and stood under it, waiting in the shade.
A hospital was often the most crowded place in the urban area. It was also often crowded with people and vehicles at the gate of the hospital. On the zebra line, there were now a great many pedestrians waiting for the signal lights to change.
Wendy looked around and tried to spot Uncle Lee's black Mercedes. Out of the corners of her eyes, she inadvertently saw a familiar figure about a dozen steps ahead of her. This was none other than Tilly, who was dressed in a black suit. She just came out of the convenience store with a glass of hot milk in her hand.
However, she kept her head slightly down all the time, and her face was gloomy. In view of the black clothes on her body, she did not seem to be spirited. On the contrary, she was particularly depressed.
Old Master Gray was very angry about the incident of rat poison last time. It was said that he did not allow Tilly to enter the old residence of the Gray family again, and she would need to go back to the U.K. in two days.
Because Wendy was standing beside a big tree, Tilly, who had been looking down at the ground, did not recognize her.
A row of green pedestrian lights ended, and the horns of a large number of vehicles began to blow. Then, the vehicles began to move on. Tilly was so absent-minded, that she did not notice change of the traffic lights. She kept on walking ahead in a trance.
All the other pedestrains had almost passed through the road, while the passers-by passing by on both sides in the main road were also in a hurry.
"Blabla..."
A fast-moving car was whistling.
Tilly did not seem to have heard the horn. She still kept her head slightly down and continued to move forward.
Seeing that Tilly would be hit by the car if she took two steps forward, Wendy finally came out from behind the big tree, rushed forward, and grabbed Tilly's arm from behind to stop her from moving forward. She shouted, "Be careful!"
Although she had collided with a passers-by next to her, it was just a shock to her shoulder. She did not get hurt, but she was still frightened. She wanted to sit down and have a rest now. She was afraid that the baby in her belly might also be hurt. If this was the truth, she would scold herself deeply.
Only God knows how important this baby was to her!
Tilly was silent for a while, and immediately helped Wendy up. "I'll take you to the hospital for a physical examination!"
Wendy did not refuse Tilly because she was also very worried that the baby might be affected. What's more, she had to some extent saved Tilly just now.
One good turn deserved another.
Wendy returned to the hospital and had a series of physical examination. It was still the director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology who prescribed the examination sheet for her. Fortunately, Wendy was only a little frightened, and there was nothing wrong with the baby in her belly. After learning about what had happened, the director instructed Wendy to be more careful in the future.
This time, when Wendy came out of the clinic building again, she was intimately followed by Tilly.
Just now, when Wendy was going through the physical examination, Tilly followed her step by step. She would rush forward as long as the nurse ordered her to do anything for Wendy. As a result, Wendy did not have to say anything, or do anything, because Tilly had almost done everything for her. The two of them interacted in such an intimate way, that the nurse looked at them, as if she was suspecting that Tilly and Wendy were lesbians...
After going down the stairs, Tilly stopped in front of Wendy, and her face turned red.
With a facial expression of mental conflict for a long while, and as if she had finally made up his mind, Tilly suddenly put her hands together towards Wendy, made a bow, and spoke loudly like a primary school student,
"Wendy, I'm really sorry!"
Wendy was shocked, but she immediately raised her eyebrows.
This time, Tilly's apology appeared to be much more sincere than last time, when she was forced by the old master to apologize to Wendy. In addition, Wendy could feel that what Tilly saⁱd Just ⁿow was sincere.
