Female Novel
Chapter 285
Kimberly looked at Quill stubbornly.
She couldn't tell anyone else before she knew the whole truth.
After all, Quill was Sylvia's elder brother. Sylvia might hate Kimberly if she didn't deal with thatmatter properly.
Kimberly was angry, resentful, and sad.
However, she was heartbroken when she saw Sylvia lying in the bathtub filled with blood, telling herthat she didn't want to live anymore. Kimberly felt as if she was a devil at that moment.
Sylvia did that because of Kimberly!
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me," Quill stood up and said calmly. He added, "You canrest here first."
Quill was about to go out after he had finished speaking. Seeing that, Kimberly hurried over andasked, "We can't enter the ICU yet, can we?"
"We can't enter yet. You don't have to worry."
After thinking for a moment, Kimberly felt that she shouldn't stay there for too long since shecouldn't visit Sylvia yet. Moreover, she was afraid that Maddox might find out about it.
Thinking of that, Kimberly said, "Then I'll go back first. I'll come back to visit her after 24 hours."
Hearing that, Quill wanted to say something. However, he nodded his head in the end and said,"Okay, your chauffeur is still waiting for you outside. You can go back now."
"Okay."
After saying goodbye to Quill, Kimberly walked out of the ward alone. She turned around andthanked Quill when she reached the door because Quill was the one who got her into the wardwhen she fainted.
Quill raised his hand and looked at the time on the watch indifferently. Then, he said in a deepvoice, "I still have things to deal with in the company. You can go back first."
Kimberly paused for a moment. She thought Quill would stay here with Sylvia. Unexpectedly...
On second thought, the patients in the intensive care unit would be constantly taken care of for 24hours. Wouldn't it be a waste of time for Quill to stay there?
Thinking of that, Kimberly felt relieved. Then, she left the hospital with George.
Kimberly looked gloomy when she was on the way back to Ocean Villa. Looking at the sceneryoutside the window, she couldn't help but think of the scene of Sylvia lying in the pool of blood. Shewas still worried about Sylvia.
'The staff in the ICU will take care of her in the next 24 hours, won't they?'
When she thought of that, Kimberly closed her eyes. She felt exhausted both physically andmentally.novelbin
It seemed that George, who was driving the car, realized that Kimberly was still worried aboutSylvia. Therefore, he comforted her, "Miss Hanover is blessed by God. Nothing will happen to her.Don't worry."
Upon hearing that, Kimberly suddenly came back to her senses. She opened her eyes and lookedat George who was driving. After a long time, she said, "George, what happened today..."
"I won't tell anyone about this."
Kimberly smiled with relief. She said, "Thank you. It's not that I don't want to tell Maddox. I just thinkthat... This has nothing to do with him, so I don't want to tell him."
"Young Madam, I understand what you're thinking." George said.
After saying that, Kimberly looked down. She told George that it had nothing to do with Maddox.However, did that really have nothing to do with Maddox?
Was it true that Sylvia's suicide attempt had nothing to do with them?
Kimberly reached the Ocean Villa soon. She was shivering in cold when the sea breeze blewagainst her. Sarah came over and said, "Young Madam, are you cold? The weather is cold nowindeed. Let's quickly go into the house."
After saying that, Sarah noticed that Kimberly's clothes were not the same as those she wore whenshe went out, and she was a little confused. Then, she saw George, who was standing behindKimberly, throwing a meaningful look at her when she was about to ask Kimberly. Seeing that,Sarah didn't want to say anything anymore. Kimberly walked into the house in a daze. Seeing thatKimberly was absent- minded, Sarah came forward to ask.
"George, what happened today? Young Madam doesn't look very well."
Upon hearing that, George sighed and said, "She did run into something today. But, it's not a bigdeal. She has already dealt with it."
"What did she run into? Tell me."
Sarah couldn't help asking about it.
Seeing that Sarah was so curious, George told her briefly about what had happened that daybecause he felt that Sarah would not spread the news out. He told Sarah that Kimberly went out to
visit her friend. However, her friend had attempted suicide. Perhaps she was hurt in love or perhapsshe was stimulated by something else, but they were the ones who found her and sent her to thehospital.
After listening, Sarah nodded and said, "She must have been shocked since her close friendattempted suicide out of a sudden. Don't worry, I will comfort her. I won't talk about this to anyone.It's getting late. You should go back and rest early."
"Well, you're a smart girl indeed. I'll leave first." George replied.
After returning to the room, Kimberly sat on the sofa and stared forward absentmindedly.
Sarah then came in with a bowl of hot soup, saying, "Young Madam, you will feel warmer afterdrinking a bowl of hot soup." Looking at the bowl of soup which was steaming-hot, the image ofSylvia lying in a pool of blood came to her mind all of a sudden, and the fragrant smell from thesoup turned into a bloody smell.
Kimberly's lips started to tremble and Sarah noticed that something was wrong with her. All of asudden, Kimberly screamed and reached out her hand to push the bowl to the ground when Sarahwas about to ask her what was going on.
'Bang!'
The bowl smashed to the ground and broke into pieces. Sarah was shocked. She looked atKimberly and shouted, "Your hand!"
Kimberly felt a burning pain in her hand. She realized that it was a bowl of soup instead of a bowl ofblood when she heard Sarah's voice. In addition to that, Sarah was looking at her suspiciously bythe side.
Only then did Kimberly realize what she had done. She bit her lower lip and said regretfully, "I'msorry, Sarah, I... just..."
"It's okay," Sarah was so shocked to hear Kimberly apologize to her. She came back to her sensesafter a long time and comforted Kimberly, "I've heard everything about what happened from George.It's normal for you to be in a daze. Why don't you take a bath first if you don't want to drink the soupnow? I'll bring the soup to you later."
"You know about it? You..." Hearing that, Kimberly was shocked.
"What happened?"
Maddox's deep voice came from outside just as she was about to warn Sarah not to tell anyoneelse about that.
Her facial expression changed instantly. How was Maddox back already?
Maddox, who was sitting in the wheelchair, was in the room right then when Kimberly was dwellingon her thoughts. She looked at Maddox in surprise.
"Young Master, you're back."
After entering the room, Maddox was stunned when he saw the mess on the ground. He realizedthat Kimberly's face was pale as well.
Kimberly's heart was beating faster. She looked at Sarah immediately.
"What's going on?"
Sarah reacted quickly and answered before Kimberly could say anything, "I'm sorry, Young Master. Ispilled the soup accidentally and scalded Young Madam!"
