"Ah, it's a long story. Just send us to the hospital now!" Renee said, as she knew that they didn't have time for idle chit-chat, especially not with Stefan's critical condition.
"Alright!" Liam nodded, suppressing the resentment he held for the man and carrying him into his car. He then drove as quickly as possible to the nearest hospital. Once he got there, he carried Renee in his arms, yelling at the emergency unit with a panicked expression.
"Doctor, please help!"
Renee, however, turned to look at Stefan, who was still lying in the car. She grabbed Liam by the arm and said, "Don't mind me for now, his condition is worse than mine. He should receive treatment first!"
Liam had always listened to Renee's every order, but this time was different. He was still dashing through the halls as if he was participating in a marathon.
He then lowered his gaze to speak to the woman in his arms. "Renee, I love and respect you a lot, but please don't forget that I am only a man. I am not as compassionate as you think I am. I've already done everything I can by bringing him to the hospital. I'm sorry I can't do more than that!"
In the end, Renee went into surgery right away, as the doctors did their best to stabilize her condition.
She had a concussion and her right leg had a comminuted fracture. Although she wasn't in critical condition, she was still required to be monitored for one whole day, so that they could ensure that she had fully stabilized.
Hence, after a full day, Renee was finally moved from the ICU to the normal ward, and was able to contact the others. Her leg was currently in a cast, and her entire body was confined to the bed.
Liam, on the other hand, was holding a nutritious meal in his hand, approaching her with a worried expression. "How do you feel, Boss? Are you hungry? You haven't eaten for an entire day. Come on, have some food."
Renee was definitely starving, but she didn't have the appetite. Instead, she grabbed Liam's arm and asked hurriedly. "How's Stefan Hunt? Is his leg okay?"
He thought that he could touch Renee's heart in time, and he thought she would forget about Stefan Hunt. He simply never expected her to get involved with that man again.
He couldn't just pretend that he was fine with this.
"That heartless man was the one who hurt you the most, so why… Why haven't you moved on from him yet? Is he really that great?!" Liam questioned angrily, unable to contain his emotions any longer.
Renee understood why he was lashing out, so she didn't get mad at him for yelling. Instead, she looked at the man calmly. "Do you know why I'm so concerned about him?"
"Why else?! You just can't let him go! You still love him, don't you?!" Liam spat and turned away, his tone furious.
